Ah, school is over and time for the job hunt. I won't feel like I'm officially done with school until I get my diploma in the mail. Having a BFA sounds so much cooler, to me, than having just a BA or BS. Many people don't know what a BFA is, so that adds an element of mystery and allure to the whole thing.
After being in school for about 22 years straight, finally being done with everything, I feel like I should just be able to take it easy. But, no. I have to get into the job market so I can support myself and be able to buy stuff. Ugh. The good thing is that I've a few job prospects that I'm going to look into. Also, I'm still doing freelance for Ellis Products. One of the most important things for me right now is to get some form of health insurance, because my parents can no longer carry me on theirs. I'm not a sickly person. I don't think I've ever had the flu or even been to the emergency room for anything . . . never even broken a bone. But, "time and unforseen occurance befall us all." So, when one least expects it something happens and you're blindsided by some tragedy you're ill-prepared for.
However, one of the first things I did as an independent adult was get my cell phone bill put in my own name. My dad was really happy about that, as you can see:
The other day I went to Best Buy to return a battery I had bought for my camera. While there, I got reacquainted with my friend Richard, who works on the Geek Squad. He's a pretty cool guy. He escorted me to our Senior Prom. The next day we went to see Casino Royale with another high school friend of ours. It was my second time seeing the movie, that weekend, the previos time being Friday. The movie was really good, Daniel Craig was really hot as Bond, and Richard and Gus enjoyed it as well. Of course, I took pictures.
Richard, being really intent on the movie.
We exited the theater to discover a beautifully foggy night. This is the parking lot.

I'm the model for once. I'm slowly getting more comfortable in front of the camera. Richard wanted to steal my camera. It can't blame him. The thing is awesome incarnate.

After the movie we headed over the the Waffle House. I hadn't been there with those guys in a really long time. So it was fun to just chill and joke and laugh.
Uhm . . . the end?
No, not really. The next day we were supposed to go the the mall. We (Richard, his friend Todd, and I) ended up going to Best Buy so hc couls check out the prices of this digital camera for his brother. Richard ended up seeing a lot of his WoW friends while there. He happens to be a guild leader, or something, and it was crazy hearing them talk WoW jargon. The sad thing was that, though I don't play the game, I was able to understand much of what they were saying.
But, I ended up getting a UV lens filter for my camera, half-price with Richard's employee discount. We were all starving, so we went to Ruby Tuesday for dinner. I had some shrimp pasta with Parmesan sauce. It tasted amazing. Richard let me play his Nintendo DS Lite. That was cool, because Kendall had suggested that I get one when I told him I was thinking about buying a Wii.
