you're not allowed to molest people in line. there's not enough room!

so, i'm working on HW tonight... kinda out of character for me. considering i put it all of to the last second possible usually. but i have big plans @ 1am tuesday morning so im trying to get some stuff done early. :] anyway i'm working on an assignment for my color photography class that has me searching on google for photographs taken at night that used artifical lighting. and i came across this.



it made me extremely excited. why? you ask... well because i went there. we stopped on the way home from june lake this summer. its just an abandoned gas station on the outskirts of a super small town. but i insisted we pull over and have a mini photoshoot.



its kind of sad to look at too. it reminds me so much of summer, when we had time to go play. we could drive for 2 days to spend less than 24 hours in one place... the laughing and giggling over the stupid things we did for fun... not just june lake but the whole summer. illionis, bonfires, washington, june lake, swirl offs, bars (;]), and photoshoots. i can honestly say that this was one of the best summers of my life, and i dont know that next summer will be anything like this last one. actually it could be the complete opposite not opposite in it will be the worst summer ever, but opposite in the fact that everyone could be gone. :/ yes. i got all that from one random picture.

i want to take pictures like that.

PIZneyland the Happiest Place on Earth

well my south dakota vacation has come to an end. i will fly away in less than 24 hours. it has been rather successful, in the way of working other than that it has been a complete fail. i've made $600 in the 9 days ive been gone... but gotten ZERO scrapbooking done! ZERO knitting done! and i have finished watching the entire series of veronica mars. 3 short seasons... =[

its 12:45 south dakota time... and i am sitting here rather depressed that there is no 4th season... that there is no closure. i need closure!!!

so the only point of this blog is to send anyone who reads this... [so basically you nicky lol!] to http://www.saveveronicamars.tv/.

oh and i looked at my hawaii pictures today... i miss it so!

a little story....

thursday afternoon approx. 3pm my family along with 7 suitcases crammed into my fathers car and drove a million hours in traffic to Las Vegas. we stayed the night in LV and shopped a little in the morning and then we arrived at the Las Vegas Airport at 2pm, 2 hours and 20 minutes before our flight was supposed to leave.... lines caused us to almost miss our flight, a real joy i might add. lol. but when things finally settled down and our flight took off and i had to listen to my puppy cry which made me want to cry. =[ for 2 hours!

lets rewind for a second. around 2, my mom called my grandma to inform her our flight was on time and then she called her sister, who was supposed to pick us up to tell her that everything was on time. my aunt said that it had started snowing... and she didnt know if she would be able to pick us up.

we landed at 7pm and once we could turn on our electronic devices my mom called to make sure things were going the way they should. surprise surprise my aunt decided not to come, and expected us to drop the money to get a ride to town and stay the night. because "a little snow" stopped her from coming down to get us.

my dad went downstairs, a little frustrated, and rented a car. a rather small car.. to shove 5 bodies, a puppy, 3 laptops, 2 backpacks and my mothers gigantic "purse". but an upgrade would have cost ohh... $160 more. after we were loaded... and we had to rip the doors open because they were frozen shut, it was amazing. we drove into town from the airport, on completely clear roads i might add, only to find that there were no openings for a hotel room anywhere in Rapid City.. and after we talked to some people about the roads.. and how they were basically perfect and everyone was making drama about nothing. so my dad decided to "risk it" and drive to my grandmas house... after many warnings against it from my amazing relatives. no one wanted us. we were like Jesus... aww the Christmas Story. =]

so that was the way we started our vacation. i must say that i think i laughed more this trip than i ever have in my life. but.. i am still so ready to come home!

and now i must end because it has seriously taken me like 4 hours to type this.. because i am addicted to veronica mars. disc 2 episode 5... =]
