HELL TO THE YEAH!!

It's been 18 long years under the reign of my parents (dad mostly), but finally I'm on my own! I've moved into college, I have all my necessities set up (ie; computer, tv, wii, mini-fridge), and I'm ON MY OWN. And I gotta say, so far it's been in-friggen-credible. I mean sure, with classes cut down to half of their usual length they need to cram in the work, but I can handle a bit of cramming! Who can't? I still have hours on end of free time that I can use to do whatever I want. I have no restrictions. I'm... free. =D

Though, on a more artistic side, that did come with a bit of a price. See, I doubt I'll ever be using my old camera again. I like film photography, but I don't see it as being cost effective for me, the guy who uses art more as a hobby than as a life style. So I donated the camera to the school, and now I'm up here with nothing more than a cheap-o digital camera. It's better than nothing, agreed, but it's bulky. If I'm gonna have a bulky digital camera, I'll spend a bit of money (or get it from my parents as a gift) to buy the Canon Rebel K2. It looks like a good piece of equipment, and I've worked with the Rebel before.

So when that happens, you all may see some more art out of me. I also need to get Photoshop on my computer too. That means I need to find a free way to download it, and I'm not so sure I want to risk the viruses on my new computer just so I can have Photoshop.

Until next time, guys and gals!

How about this? You continue talking, and I'm going to stand here and make no attempt whatsoever to even pretend to listen. Kay?
:iconlancerey:
Woo Kaz! Living the free life!

Shame about the camera! I never could have given it up, let alone DONATED it to anywhere. Digital photography is more cost effective, yeah, but there's something special about developing your own film.. the smell of the chemicals and the red light of a dark room... ahhhhh.

I like the idea of chocolate cake better than the cake itself.
:iconruseoffire:
Yeah, and spending all that lovely money that I don't have on buying the film... and the chemicals... and probably renting out a darkroom so I can actually develop the stuff... oh, and not to mention the proper containers as well... yes, it's all very special, but I'd rather have money and work in digital, thank you very much. =D

I like to think that normality doesn't exist. It's simply a more acceptable form of 'wierd'."
"........ You're a freak"
"Thank you."
:iconlancerey:
Fine. FINE! I'll go sniff developer on my own and space out to the glow of red lights.
