First things first: can anyone tell me why my camera (nikon d50) is doing that (the black bar in the bottom photo)? There is tremendous light fallout. When I have the camera horizontal, it’s on the bottom. When I have it vertical, it moves with the camera (so it usually makes the right side dark). It does it with both of my lenses, so it has to be the camera. It doesn’t do it all the time but sometimes it ruins the whole photograph. It has been happening more and more often. I can’t figure it out!

/tangent.

Do you guys like my bruises and Hello Kitty bandaids? I like to think my bruised up legs make me look super tough, but really I’m just clumsy. I think everyone else knows the truth, as well. Either way, the cute bow really balances the toughness of my battle scars. My good friend Samara (who just finished law school…yay!) bought me this adorable bow belt last week, and got herself a matching purple one. We decided to be awesome/lame and wear them at the same time for breakfast. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my camera with me – otherwise I would have gotten pictures of us being twins. Maybe now that she has some downtime (j/k…bar exam time!), we can plan another matching day.

I would say “Wish Samara luck on her bar exam!” – but she really doesn’t need it. At breakfast, she was telling me how “over law school” she was. She said, “I don’t even care anymore. Give me a B and call it a day.”

“Oooh, what a rebel,” I said. “I can just hear Aerosmith’s ‘Living On The Edge’ in my head right now.”
