What my afternoon has been and my evening will be. I'm hoping to do decently on this test. I have to if I want to keep my current grade. I should stop writing and get back to studying!

Today was hot and cold. There were some good parts and some bad parts. Luckily the bad parts happened before the good ones so I guess my day turned out okay. So much is happening all at once. It's frightening. But there's also a lot to look forward to and be excited about. I have such a strange mix of emotions right now. We'll see how it all plays out, hopefully everything turns out for the best.

Today I went to the physics extravaganza at my school. It had a ton of cool demonstrations that I thoroughly enjoyed. Unfortunately most of them are difficult to take photos of. However, this one was much easier. They combined diet coke and mentos. It exploded really big, I got splashed because I was had got close to take this photo. It was still super cool. The extravaganza was fun, the rest of the day wasn't as much. I can see the end!

Today was a good day. We went and checked out yet another car. We'll find one soon! After, we visited the Zumiez Couch Tour so that I could see this awesome band named Daytrader. They are awesome. More photos of them playing here. Overall good day. Eight school days left!

Today was a good day. A majority of it was spent being super lazy, and also looking endlessly at Craigslist car ads. After that I enjoyed some dinner at Sweet Tomatoes and then a little Wii Sports and a movie. It was a good day.

Today was a decent day. My dad and I spent a majority of the day looking at cars. We're going to find one for me soon! Then went on a short bike ride, ran a few errands, and then hung out home after.

Went on a field trip with my geology class today! We visited lava caves on Mount Saint Helens. It was super amazing and awesome, I loved it. Also, it's extremely difficult to take decent photographs in pitch black caves. But it was still an amazing trip.

Tonight we had senior awards night at my school. It was a long ceremony, but it felt good to be honored and to honor all of my friends and fellow students. I really enjoyed it. These are the cords I received for my work during high school. Graduation is upon us.

Today I attended the senior coffeehouse, pictured here. It was quite fun and enjoyable. Definitely the highlight of my day. It's crazy how close we are to the end. Today was a decent day overall.

Today my sister made these interesting lava cupcake thing-a-ma-jigs. They were pretty tasty! Could use some improvements, but overall pretty good for a first try. Today was alright. Another late night due to procrastination, I need to quit it. Only a few weeks left, I need to finish strong!

This is my kind of attempt to photograph the eclipse. I wasn't actually able to really take any good photo of it with my equipment, but the clouds around it were spectacular. Today was an alright day. Nothing too eventful.

Prom was today. And it was wonderful. Thanks for being such an amazing girlfriend. :)

Long day today. Rode my bike 22 miles. Without water. What a terrible idea that was. I'm exhausted. But I enjoyed it and probably needed the exercise. Anyways, I'm drained physically, mentally, and emotionally. Time for bed.

It's crazy, there is three weeks left of school. I just can't believe it. Tonight we prepared my graduation announcements. Wow.

I love star trails. So much. I edited this photo a few different ways (here) but I chose this one as my photo of the day because it had the most star trails. I like the colors better on the other edits, but the trails is what I was really after. Today was a decent day. I still have stuff to make up because of all the school I've missed for my exams, so that's annoying. Looking forward to being done with all these exams and make up work. And school in general. Nearly done!

Haven't done one of these physiograms for a while, I quite like them. No, I didn't have a colorful flashlight. But if I did, this is what the color would be. But other than the color it's not changed from how it was photographed. Today I had the big history exam, and I think I did better than expected. Only one exam remaining, I'm so excited to finally be done with them! So close!

I finally have some gear for school next year! No more excuses for wearing my Oregon Ducks sweatshirt anymore, I'm a full Beaver! Prepped for the history test today. Not fun. But it was sunny and wonderful which always makes my day better.

Had quite a good day today. It was super sunny and wonderful. Washed my mom's car with a little help from my awesome girlfriend. Happy mother's day, mom! Then we had some super yummy dinner at California Pizza Kitchen and then saw the Avengers, which was awesome! Overall really great day. Definitely enjoyed it.

Had an awesome day today. Well, awesome afternoon and evening. I had two exams today. But I had a great time with my awesome girlfriend after the annoying exams and then we had an awesome time with other friends the rest of the night. It makes me want summer really badly. It's almost here! Some more photographs here!

Went on a short adventure today (here). It was hard to decide my favorite photo, but I chose this one. Anyways, today was a nice day. It was super sunny. I had one easy exam and now I've got to study study study for tomorrow's two exams! I'm halfway done as of right now, woohoo!

Black and white version here. We've had birds in our backyard for a while. They left their nest a couple days ago, and today my mom found it on the ground. It was pretty neato, so I decided to make it my photo of the day! A few flower petals fell in it so that was pretty cool. I liked it. Today was not wonderful. Four hours of a terrible test really makes it hard to have a good day. Other than that though, I had a decent day.

A little bit unusual photo of the day. An animation of two photos of my cat. It makes it look 3D. Also, she's turning her head and that's cute. Today way sunny. And not too bad. I think I did well on my spanish test. Today was also the last day of regular school this week for me. Exams the rest of the week, yay! I should be going to sleep soon...

I didn't really like any of the photos I took today. It's hard to focus on being creative when you know you've got a lot of things to be doing. Oh well. I've got a regular test tomorrow, then exams the rest of the week. What fun.

Today was a good day. It was super sunny and will hopefully stay like this for a while. Got a tuxedo for prom as well. I have definitely enjoyed the day.

Today was a wonderful day. For breakfast I went out and met with a group to study for history. It was fun and a tasty breakfast. Then had a little band practice. Then got to spend the evening with my girlfriend. This photo was taken with her iPhone, edited on my iPod. It is of her nightstand. What a cute photograph of us she had on her nightstand. Overall today was a really great day.

Today was a splendid day overall. I had to take a math exam that was less than splendid, but other than that my classes were easy. After school, I helped load canned food for an hour and a half! Our school got a total of around 115,000 pounds of food, including the money where $1=5lbs. So impressive! Then I got to spend the evening with my wonderful girlfriend. And then I took this photograph of the moon (big shiny starry thing). I quite like it.

Today was a good day. I had to take one test and didn't have to do anything else. It was very nice. I also went to ASB inductions (here) for my sister and wonderful girlfriend. Speaking of my wonderful girlfriend...

Today was a regular day of school, but it's the last regular day of school I'll have for a while. I have tomorrow mostly off, one exam. Here goes nothing! In other news, I love this photo for some reason. It was a complete accident. I was messing around with my flash (here) and it creates these super cool shapes which I think are dust specks. Anyways, I somehow managed to trigger the flash so late that it only lit up this much. It's so speck-tacular. See what I did there?

Today I was just doing some tests with dramatic lighting. I like this one except for the gap in my background. But whatever, they're just tests. Also, today is officially one third of the year done! Only two thirds of the year remain, what a crazy thought! Anyways, today was normal. Not very exciting. Testing starts soon, I'm gearing up!
