The Decision
Hey look, I'm posting faster than I thought.
I've started Depicting Deposit -another blog... I'll definitly keep posting in both, but just letting you all know that I have no posts up at this new one, so don't get too excited yet. :)
that's all for now ....
Thoughts...
I have a question for all of those who have blogs out there. Do you ever sometimes feel that your blog makes no sense? That you came in with a plan and had tons of ideas of what to write about and yet now you're here, twenty-some random posts later, asking these questions of your followers? No? Well that's how I feel today.
Honestly, I was thinking of starting another blog, completely dedicated to a single topic. I've looked around for ideas and have seen some that only post pictures, others with artwork and some with a continuing story, each post representing another chapter. I'm kind of liking the photography one...
For now, I'll keep thinking. Who knows how things'll go with work starting next week and college in august but I'll certainly post my decision.

B-B-B-Bennie and the Jetssss
High school is just about over... all I have to do is take a NYS regents test and then graduate. That's it! If I haven't already said so, I'm amazed at how fast this year went by. All my upperclassmen friends used to warn me how fast their senior years went by and how I should make sure to enjoy mine, but I don't think I ever really thought it would go this quick!
Anyway, I was thinking about that today and how I finally have ALL of my schoolwork done and handed in. It seemed a little weird to have two big projects due the last day of school, but I suppose that's what comes with taking a course like AP Biology... Our projects were actually pretty cool- for one, my partner and I re-wrote Bennie and the Jets to Bennie and the Biomes (maybe I'll post that in here soon...) and for the other we were given the assignment to collect pictures of things such as "eight bugs," "five wildflowers," and "two amphibians/reptiles" and put them in a PowerPoint slideshow with it (hey it was right up my alley!), but taking all of those pictures outside reminded me of the above picture.
A couple of years ago, I took it upon myself to make a Nature Alphabet just like the one above. I thought it was the coolest thing to find letters hidden in plain sight like that and I just had to try it out. The only problem with this? Back then, it was the dead of winter. I didn't care though and followed through to make one very cool, but very monochromatic alphabet.
Now, however, with it being summer and me having no other obligations than finding a job and attending graduation parties, I think I'll have the time to make a really fantastic, knock-your-socks-off alphabet. Hopefully it'll be much more colorful than the last...
Obviously nothing else has been too awesome in my life lately to blog about (I mean, I wrote about AP bio today... 'nuff said) ... but hopefully with all of this free time I'll have a chance to stretch my mind's creative legs. So, sorry for the boring stuff!
Oh, and for anyone who still wants to read our rendition of Bennie and the Biomes:
Hey kids, shake out loose together,
Snowboards hitting powder
Tundra’s known to change it’s weather
We’ll kill the caribou tonight
So stick around.
Your gonna hear eccentric bugles
Solid howls from hounds
Say, Bennie, those forests, have you seen them yet
Oh it’s gettin’ warmer out, were bennie and the jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh bennie they’re really green.
Thats an electric moose, a grizzly too
We’ve only seen em’ in a magazine
We’re bennie and the jets
Hey kids, wait is that a coyote?
Maybe their friendly
I think that we should find out
We shall survive, let us walk across the sand
The sun is high ,we’re burnin’ our feet
Let’s get to a cooler land
Say, Mandy and Tommy do you want to get wet?
Oh, it’s raining out, we’re Bennie and the jets
It’s really hot and its humid
They’re cutting down all the trees!
It’s a panda boo, eating bamboo shoots
Just like in your NG magazine
We’re Bennie and the Jets
Bennie!
yeah... I thought it was at least a 5 on the top ten songs of all time... hahaha :)
