Living Quarters

I have officially left my dorm room in Cascadilla and have moved into the house I will be staying at from May 17 to May 31. Then I will be moving again and living in a new place from June 1 to August 19.

I do not feel like unpacking because it will all be repacked and moved in two weeks. As a result, I don't feel like doing anything at all right now. My parents came up to help me move and bring about 40% of my things back home. We had an expensive lunch at Hai-Hong. They just left about a half hour ago.

This is the state of my room having nothing unpacked or cleaned with only the refrigerator currently plugged in and operational.


Today's POTD, from Cascadilla:

Continuing Down the Cascadilla

I few more shots here. I personally found them boring because of its lack of uniqueness. I guess it is because this set, called "Cascadilla Creek", has too much in common with the one I took yesterday. It is the same creek which becomes a gorge. Today, I looked at the creek (shallow water) side.

I wanted to practice a little more macro today with inappropriate lenses. It didn't go to well, but it was fun nonetheless.

Cascadilla Trail

Today after spending over four hours in the machine shop (getting lucky in the morning for a lottery on one of the machines in the early morning), I decided to do something out of the ordinary. It was such an awesome day out today, I decided to go shooting with my Nikon.

I will cheat with today's POTD by using a D40 photo, rather than from the Sony N1 because I had too fun walking down and back Cascadilla Trail. I saw more people there than I had expected but all was well. I got into photographer mode, and I did not care. It was very relaxing, and I throughly enjoyed it. Because of the high contrast between shadow and sun, most of them came out odd. Just 18% were deemed good-to-show by me, mainly because of this huge difference between shadow and sun, and because a lot of what's in the gorge is repetitive. Haha I need some help, but I hope you like the pictures, on Flickr.
