The Last

Okay, so I'm just wasting time till I have to go to work for the first day of my life. I've had jobs before, mind you. I've just never had a professional job. 9-5, full-time, big boy job. Well maybe not big boy, cause I'm making videogames all day.

Anyway, to quell my nervousness, I'm posting some of my pictures.

from a shore at the head of the metolius river. There were actually two butterflies that were seemingly flirting with each other, but I couldn't get a good picture of that unfortunately.


just some crap picture from the banks. There was all this rogue barbwire buried in the ground. This one tripped me, heh.


after I fell, I looked up and saw the sun shining through this one flower plant. The colors were amazing when it was lit up by the sun. I wish I had a better picture of it, I couldnt capture its radiance. It was the only thing of its kind in the whole field.


back at the campfire. Again, I wish I had focused better. This is one huge reason I need to get a better lens, cause the focus mechanism on this EF-S 18-55mm lens is terrible.


Yet another Metolius river shot... I was trying desperately not to be like every other photo ever. The water was amazing here though. It was almost neon blue, flowing very quickly. This is under the bridge of the fish hatchery.


back at home finally. This is the start of a series I am trying to work out. I'm starting a project based off lines, so that means I have pictures of window blinds, vent grates, records stacked up, telephone lines against a pure blue sky, etc. Still working on that though.


okay enough, now I gotta speed to work.

ooh lovely pictures... hope your first day at Buzz Monkey went well! What's your job title?

Oh, and are you coming to NIN? I am going with 3 people, and our seats are in 203 G. Its a crappy spot but the best we could get. If you can't come to NIN, we should go see Royksopp! My friend Sean is going to get tickets in Portland soon, so let me know!

yeah, the first day went really well, and my job title is pretty much just game programmer. I really cant go into more details because i signed an NDA saying that I wont say anything about it, heh.

if 203G is all you could get, im assuming that the rest of the spots are sold out... I'd love to go though, but concerts at rose garden kinda suck. You know where Royksopp is going to play?

Game programmer, cool. I read about that title on their site. I think its weird you can't talk about it though.. i mean, you aren't a government agent or anything, its just a job, right?

My friend Sean is driving up to Portland on Thursday to scope out Royksopp tickets. They're playing at some Greek restaurant called Berbatis Pan that has concerts fairly often.

yeah, the reason is all marketing. If some kids are really excited for a game right when development starts, then 2 years later they wont care at all about it. So it has to remain a secret till right before a holiday. Sales are best then i suppose. Its all business.

And Royksopp would be kickass, especially if its not at the rose garden. I really wanna see trent... i dont know maybe. I never go to concerts cause im so indecisive, heh.
