Traditions

:D
In photography class, one of the things we're doing is somthing called Creative Connections.  I don't remember if I've already talked about this, but the basic idea is to make some form of art to show the topic (this year its traditions).  I chose a picture I took of a family at the cemetary.  They were having lunch there, and even though the day was SUPER cloudy, it looked cool so I took a picture :D

I hope i can delete this one later XD

http://vandelaydesign.com/blog/design/lighting-effect-tutorials/

Just a spiffy tutorial link I found while looking for painting with light information on google.

When I said i'd put more pictures up when school started, I hadn't expected myself to be so busy XD; I WILL put the pics I have done in photography class up once they are scanned, but that will take time so they may or may not be up soon.

 I am exhausted.

Last week, the homestays came and went.  they left on Sunday.  It was sad, but it was just five days so definitely not enough time to really bond.  It was fun though; we bought them places and shopping and stuff. :D  The bad thing: homework pileup.  i didn't do most of my homework that week. I'm paying for it now. XD

Monday after that was Yom Kippur, so we had a day off.  Kira and Co. went up to NY and took pics in central park! lotsa fun. :D  We're apparently going to be doing an Alice in Wonderland cosplay for halloween and aNEXT and such.  I'm excited.  I think me and kara-chan (kara-wind) are going to be Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, but i'm not sure yet; we need to talk about it. XD;  (we'd be doing an interpretation rather than litterally buying the costume. XD)

I'll try to get the few pictures I took in New York up tonight.  I'll try not to forget.  They're all set to put up too, I just have to do it. XD

still gotta finish those kara-icons.

This thing has turned me into a liar.

In any case, I've been sleeping alot. XD; seen my friends a few times. working loads.  taking loads of pictures, although none too noteworthy.  in fact, none really put upabble either (<--i've been working on my film camera...) 

WELCOME AUGUST.

The relatives visited, and now they're gone (thank the gawds. i suck at spending time with relatives)

I really need to get some pics up soon.  It's hard when I can't really get too many good pics, but i believe i will be soon, since i'm planningo n hitting th e beach and having a phtoshoot like thing soon :D

:D http://kira-temeki.deviantart.com/art/Prototype-Nyanko-sensei-130070855 I finished!! :D

On another note, I haven't gotten any good photography lately, but i'll be putting some stuff up later or tomorrow (I promise! >_<) I haven't decided of WHAT yet, since none of the photography from lately is really any nice but it's been too long.

I've been reading Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, and writing analysis and summary for each of the chapters.  It's tiring, and would be better if I liked the book to begin with T_T

Squirrel-Proofing

confused

SOOOO I just wasted my last two days trying to figure out a way to squirrel proof the bird feeder we have!
IT'S RIDICULOUS.  -_______-



Who said animals were dumb?

and the OTHER thing i've been working on!! My Nyanko-plushie!! :D

 

It's definitely not there yet, and nor is this the actual size.  The picture on the right is the actual Nyanko-sensei from Natsume Yuujinchou (which is an AWESOME anime.) :D He's so cute.

I want mine to be big enough to pillowize!!  But this is the prototype.  :D  To see if i can do it to begin with, and play with it enough to get the big one to look good.  I can't wait to finish!  This, amoung my cosplay and photography, is one of mjy goals for the summer :D

The corn however, was delicious.  Ever last cancer-giving grain of it. XD

After the Rain

So today there was a small rain.  It wasn't a big storm, nor did it even have lightning, but it was a nice light rainfall.  While watching a movie, I looked out the window and saw that the sky was red.  Being ME (XD) i opened the window, and saw the sky erupt in colors. :D


Editing not involved!!!! :D  All camera work here :D

A bit of editing here, but just contrast fix :D

Upstate NY Trip.

chasing stars
So even though Summer began more than a month ago, it just started to feel like SUMMER.
Right after my final exams, i left on a trip to upstate new york.  It was alot of fun, very peaceful, and very interesting.  (I saw my first hail storm!) On another note, i didn't have internet for the most part, so i didn't get to update.  I'm updating now though! :D


This was a picture taken at my school in the garden.  I was fooling around with the black and white XD



The most delicious little candies ever. XD I love these things, they just melt in your mouth.  My favorite is the watermelon one.

 

I found this picture really perty.  It's a bit darker than i'd like it, but The sun was peaking out from behind the clouds and it just made me feel like freedom :D




These are called Alpacha (spelling?) THEY'RE ADORABLE. :D  And they have the biggest eyes...They're very gentle and have really really REALLY fluffy fur (?).



(I'm sure i've said it before becuase i say it quite often but ) Even weeds are pretty :D



WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM >:D
(Actually it's just Boota, the pig mole who apparently oozes Spiral energy and  is still with Simon even though Simon's like 80.  But everything TTGL automatically makes me think of Kamina's super awesome lines.  XD)
In fact, we did a Boota photoshoot.  I'll put a pic or two up on dA and the link here, if you ever wanna see pictures of my pig mole.

fail. i fail. i'm finding it ridiculously difficult to do the 'post every day' but i really want to.  so i'll try harder starting tomorrow >_<

Here's my post for today.



The Beach.

"Cast my shadow"
there's a story to this one.  Maybe i'll write it up soon. 

I'm busy with all that make up work from my time in Japan. >_< sorry!

~*Kira*~

Four pictures today! if i can get them up.  I feel like i owe way many more pictures though, but i think this should take care of all the ones i owe..sicne i've been in Japan for 7 days, and this plus the others is 9, the three pictures can go for the days i missed before...



The shopping center we went to...It's called Vinawalk, and it's at Ebina station.  I love train stations here by the way.
On another note, the shops here are adorably irresistable and a sure way to go broke.  Only i haven't. XD;



The view from my walk home.  this is litreally right outside my school.  It's beautiful.



What we did yesterday.  Basically, we picked these flowers and made tea.  Camomille, i believe they're called...
