January 31

End of the month! Laundry day! What a trip

January 30

Homework sucks... My life is really starting to look quite boring last couple of pictures haha

January 29

Terrible photo. But screw it, I just got some more film today, so I want to use that

January 28

I don't usually like taking nature shots but this was too cool

January 27

Wacha!

January 26

Had some fun with long exposures in the car last night

January 25

I wish I could have gone out in the rain and gotten something, but it was crazy ass rain...

January 24

Such an uninteresting, uninspired day

January 23

Don't know why reflections strike me as so interesting lately. Door knobs open up new worlds, and it doesn't help that it's rainy season. I get lost in puddles

January 22

Emptied my pockets last night

January 21

Yeah..

January 20

My favorite from yesterday... Was too lazy to up it

January 19

This is basically what I did for most of today. After tabla classes I spent like 4 hours in the car. I got hit by my brother right after I took this picture

January 18

Recently picked up guitar again after a long time. I think there's something in that wood that just makes that whole guitar playing experience so beautiful

January 17

Orange

January 16

Finals... Damn

January 15

'Nother jab at my mom's gardening, haha. Not a good picture because I wanted to go out and shoot film instead, so I just rushed it

January 14

Zionist church

January 13

...

January 12

And here I was thinking my backyard sucked

January 11

Lame picture.

Yet it was the best of all of them today. That says something.

January 10

This is probably where all newspapers are going to end up in the near future... Left out in the rain to die.

January 9

One day late... Was too lazy to upload this yesterday.

January 8

Just got these today... So beautiful, so fun..

January 7

Nice old lady

January 6

I guess I deserve coming home today with one lame shot for going to the EXACT SAME PLACE as yesterday... I'll find somewhere new to go tomorrow...

January 5

This rain is frustrating. Only two days into it and we're all sick of it already. Including this little guy...


Whoa, lightning just struck. I thought it was someone shooting off a flash from behind me, and then I heard the thunder and realized I was alone in my room..

January 4

First seriously rainy day of the winter. Most of the rest was bright and sunny... Hell Christmas was cloudless. I love California

hey you
glistening there
a light drizzle
a thin film of
hope
steadily shining under
a heavy torrent
of acid
but I know you can
keep your head up
don't go "knock, knocking"
on the gates of heaven
or hell yet
because there's still time
there's always
still time
for you to shine

take my word for it
if you believe it's true
then so be it
nothing will change the
fact
nothing can
hide it
hold it from the world
unless it's just a lie
a mistake you keep
and keep on
just to keep your pride
or just to flow
with the tide
when public opinion washes away
any sense of being
you only
might
still have
I know though,
it's short lived
and your "enlightenment"
is sure gone
along with all the
"friends"
you've made
and all the promises
are abandoned
orphaned seeds
yet to blossom
but there's still time
just know
you can still shine

January 3

Leftovers...

That's right. We had Amici's last night. And nothing you can do will change that

January 2

I enjoy reading...

Reading enjoys me...

January 1

So here it begins...

What is up

This will document the year 2008 and what each day of it means to me. The media through which I will be communicating this will be through photography. Maybe I'll spice it up and add a little poem or something when I feel like it.

Word..
