Duaflex II

Today, I am stoked.

Why?

Two reasons.

1. I was allowed to drop a completely pointless class, and instead, add Basic Photography. Basic photography? Yes... basic photography. Why am I stoked for this? Well I'll give you a hint... I get to work on photography assignments in a room that is small, and dark. Also... I get to use this little baby.

Now I just have to figure out how to put a spring back into the camera so it works properly... anybody know how to fix these?


I do believe there were TWO reasons for being stoked, not just one completely awesome reason.


2. The 'Hope for Haiti Now' album is available for purchase on iTunes, and (apparently) 100% of the profits from the $7.99 album do in fact, go to Haiti. According to the News Chronicle, the album has already raised 58 million dollars for earthquake relief. Admit it, that's pretty awesome. The album is pretty good as well. I'm not really a huge fan of many of the artists on the album, but for the first time, many of these musicians have actually really impressed me. (You actually get to hear what their REAL voices sound like!)

Anyway... if you have an extra $7.99, it's a really great way to contribute to helping out Haiti. Plus, you get some classic songs sung by some surprisingly talented singers. (The Jay-Z, Bono, The Edge & Rihanna compilation is especially surprising.)

You get to print in a darkroom?? Amazing. I'm jealous. I think I might still have some Ilford paper if you need some... :)
