April 5

The two cabins we stayed in where called Hardtimes and Kenny's Song. I stayed in Hardtimes, which is the one in the picture above.

Then we played some tackle football (surprisingly, no one got hurt).

Then one of the students got bet $8 to eat a large spoon full of Crisco. Made me want to puke just watching. Amazingly, he didn't. Crazy.

And why did we have Crisco? Well, for greased-up-watermelon football of course!

Peace.

First day of the Mantreat!

Rockin good times.

Went out to Sister Lakes, Michigan. I think so far, my favorite state (at least, ones that I have gone to) is Michigan, though Colorado was pretty rocking. Though I think my perspective is a bit biased, as I have only gone on retreats in Michigan in the middle of no-where.

This was with the youth group I work with in Bartlett. It really was awesome.

First Baseball game! Was a lot of fun, except when it started raining in the 5th. I took off one of my T-Shirts and used to to cover my camera. Was able to shoot for another inning before I had give up and keep my equipment safe. I shot all these at ISO1600.

Did some shots for my friend for his new album.

I really really wanted to shoot with my flash off-camera on a stand, but alas, no camera places near here had PC Male to Male cords. Frick. Guess I should probably order one.

Just finished Call of Duty 4 today. The single player campaign was a little short, but it really felt like a good length. I was glad that I could actually finish a game :).

Now, this is probably one of the best games I have ever played. Most definitely the best First Person Shooter I have ever played. The game was certainly challenging, there where several areas that I had to play many many times to stay alive and get through. The game had all the great elements of a shooter, plenty of scenes of INTENSE action and fire fights, but then there where also several levels where you have to sneak around and not get caught. The story line also really draws you in. You really sort of got to really like the people you fought along side with, especially over the last several missions... I wont spoil the end for those that want to play, all I gotta say is they did a phenomenal job making a connection with the player to the different in-game characters. Not many games really accomplish that.

Kudos to Activision for another fine release in the CoD series.

Man, I need a proper Macro lens again...

So what is the secret to taking different pictures everyday? Maybe I am just to busy to find something interesting to shoot.

Today's features the latest and last upgrade to my MacBook Pro. Over the weekend, I replaced the 120GB internal drive, which is too cramped for me, for a foxy 320GB drive. It rocks.

So now really, there aren't any more possible upgrades for my lappy. Well, technically there is one where you can replace the DVD drive for a second hard drive. Worth considering some day in the future. I barely use the thing any way :D

Good fun! I learned how to make stereographic projection. Or rather, making a planet out of a panoramic shot. Fricken sweet. Our house is at the top.

I call this "Home Planet"

Get it?

Haha, I'm lame.

Peace.
