It's Friday, so that means that I'm in the darkroom, working. Kind of gross, but at least I'm making some money. Money sucks, but it's nice when you have it. I'm really tired today, I haven't been sleeping well (even when I take the ambien, it still hasn't been very good). Last night was the same, I stayed up late and had to wake up early. Oh well.

I'm printing photos for my documentary final. I'm taking portraits of people's feet instead of their faces, because faces are very common and feet aren't as common. Also, feet tend to make people feel uncomfortable, so I like that aspect of it too. And, surprisingly, feet have a lot of personality. I'm kind of excited about this project, so that's good. I have to finish up my independent study project too. I got a little behind on that again so I need to finish that up.

It's spring weekend here at UConn. I have mixed feelings about spring weekend. I don't like it because I have to be paranoid about driving; there's cops EVERYWHERE!! I'm afraid to have one drink and then drive, just because I don't want to get into trouble. It's nice that they have a weekend where everyone can let loose, but it still kind of sucks. Huge crowds of drunken people aren't really my thing. But it's interesting, to say the least.

I've been putting off reading this book for African Art for weeks and weeks and now it's due on Monday (the paper that I have to write for it). I'm SO not looking forward to this. I seriously need to sit down and just read it. I'm on page 25 out of 300. That's a shitton of reading that I'm NOT looking forward to. Ugh. And it's spring weekend, and supposed to be really nice out tomorrow. Yuck! I have to work for Whitney on Sunday so hopefully I'll get some done then. I need to get some done before then though, like, now. I just can't concentrate on it. And it's such a confusing book; I don't understand what's going on. It doesn't get better either because Hannah is reading the same book and she's farther ahead them me and says it's still just as confusing. Sighs.

I guess I should go be productive with darkroom stuff. I want to get this project (feet) printed as much as possible, then I'm going to make myself read (or try to).
