MAY APRIL MARCH

The photos I took on my trip are so large that Photoshop eats up all of my computer memory when I try to edit them. The size of the photos (and the supposed megapixels this camera is capable of) doesn't matter considering I need a tripod to take a clear shot of anything (number of currently owned tripods: zero). It's nearly impossible to get a non-blurred photo out of this thing and I'm thankful for the ones I have that I managed to salvage with that wonderful sharpen tool.

I still ended up with 305 photos and they're only the originals cropped to a manageable size. I guess if I wanted to I could make "detail" photos, but I'll save that for whenever I become desperately bored.

Life is so exciting for me since I got back. I don't just feel optimistic, I am optimistic. I feel motivated rather than lazy. Maybe now is the time to make that golden bicycle a reality. I also think I'm passionate enough to start my gigantor "scrapbook" project I've been mulling over. I always have so much trouble throwing away printed materials (especially magazines or booklets of any kind) because I want to scour them for images first. Of course, I rarely get around to the scouring part. I need new X-Acto knives.

Does anyone have any idea how much it costs to print images onto that wall-decal material? I don't even know what those are made of, I guess something similar to window clings. I was looking through some home decor website today and they sell graphic wall decals for a ridiculous amount of money. How much cooler would it be to make my own? I can ask my website/print expert of a brother about it.
