i'm learning. i'm learning everday and my limits are not just in classrooms. but i have not gotten to the point where i am really able to write about what i'm learning and experiencing. i'm not quite to the summary part of these past months. i will get there, i hope, but until then i'm just experiencing.

but on to what you really care about: my photography. i've been dragging my camera around telling myself to take pictures, of anything--even just my friends and i hanging out in a coffee shop or in the garage smoking a cigarette. but i'm having trouble. i hope to overcome this soon. on the other hand i have some photographs i need to edit and submit from a romanian festival i attended in colleyville, texas. i think for so much of my life i wanted to be american and have american traditions but now that it is not in my living room i'm fascinated. i had a wonderful time and i hope you enjoy them.

i wish i could send all of you a bouquet of freshly sharpened pencils, oh how i adore the fall.
