Law School: CHECK!

He... is... DONE!!!

Robert completed his FINAL final yesterday at 5 pm. He is DONE with law school.

Now onto moving cross country and taking the Bar. :)

Congrats, honey! You have rocked this law school experience! We have grown so much as a family during the last 3 years (not to mention adding a cute little family member-- we love you Jer!). I wouldn't trade this experience for ANYTHING and I am going to miss Virginia, but definitely NOT miss law school! I know Robert feels the same way!

I love you, Robert! Congrats!

What Not to Wear/Do on Campus.

In this posting I will be displaying things not to wear or do on campus.
I have been studying the students of UNT within the past week so I could see what is going through their minds. I didn't take pictures of them because I don't want them to be embarrassed and I didn't have my camera on me any of those days.

So here are some things:







1. Keep the black velvet dress at home, or actually just burn it.
2. Now denim outfits can be cute and I've seen some cute pictures of girls with all denim outfits, but the girl I saw with the dress that was a wrap kind, nu uh not cool.
3. Please don't come to school with your jammies still on, especially your plaid jammy pants. As much as I want to wear my jammies to school, I know that people won't like it.
4. I see this all the time on campus!! Couples that just stop and kiss, before dropping their baby off to class they kiss about a good 4 times, well 5 since they can't without it. Then their groping one another, just hands flying wherever they want to. Yuck! Gross! Nobody wants to see!
5. Ok I just heard in recent news that the scrunchy is coming back? I need time to think about that. I sometimes use it to pull my hair break if I don't feel like washing my hair or there's a themed 80's party, but I don't let it go out in public. It stays a secret.
6. NO MULLET! NO MULLET! NO MULLETS FOR WOMEN!
7. And then the bun on top of the head. My freshman year I had a girl in my biology lab that literally every single week we met she had a bun on top of her head, even when she presented a project. Not cool.

Let me know if something should be added to the list, but for now these are my top ones that must not be worn/or done on college campus.

Come back next week when I blog about what's cool to wear and do on campus.

Tim Walker - Fashion Photography

Keeping in with the "Alice in Wonderland", eclectic, euphoric theme I have touched on this week, today I am adding a shout out to Tim Walker, an inspirational fashion photographer who whisks you away to a new undiscovered world with each shoot. I came across a great quote from an interview Walker did with SHOW Studio "You look through the viewfinder and there's a window to something magical. You haven't seen it before...you see something you haven't yet caught...it's such a thrill..." I really like this idea of viewing photography as a 'window to something magical' as it is an amazing concept to capture a moment in time you can never capture the same again. Below are just a couple of images out of the many that I am inspired by through colour, composition and content.




Some of Tim Walker's images remind me of the mood evoked in Bill Henson's photography as there is a similar air of mystery and intrigue. Both manage to develop a puzzling sense of reality evoked by the seemingly disjointed composition and quirky use of subjects relating with their environment seen in both their works.
