Taking Time to Reflect

After a stressful week of midterms and having four exams in one day, I decided it was necessary to rejuvenate my spirit by appreciating by beautiful surroundings in Blacksburg, VA. I convinced my friends to wake up early and go on a sunrise hike at the very popular McAffee's Knob. The hike wasn't too difficult, especially with frequent breaks to marvel at the constellations. When we got to the top of the mountain we waited a little while for the sun to rise, and although we were all freezing on the top of the mountain, the view when the sun came up was one of the most beautiful things I have ever experienced. I tried my best to capture its beauty but I didn't want to waste the view behind the lens of my camera, so I have a few pictures but not too many.

Recently in my public speaking class I did a speech about my experience showing work at the Greater Reston Arts Center and today I realized that I never posted my work on my blog. The show was about a year ago, I don't remember the exact date, but it was an amazing experience that I'll never forget. Here are the three works that I showed:

Life Update

I've been away from this blog for a while. Honestly I kind of forgot about it until today. Since I've been away at college I haven't been creating as much as I would like, but I still want to post a few things I've done since my last post.

Summer at Smith Mountain Lake was beautiful, I have a few pictures that I just played around with that I think turned out nice.

At school I don't really have a chance to be creative. As a business major my life is full of Microsoft Excel and balance sheets instead of Adobe Photoshop, at times I feel like I need my creative outlet back so I've been thinking about switching majors. I have messed around a little bit though recently and I think the results of my playing around are actually kind of cool.

.....and as I write this post I realize that I left my SD card with the most recent images on it at home...so that's cool. Welp, I hope I get the chance to do more posts like this in the future but I need to recover my SD card first.
