Faith gave us all flowers as part of the Res-Life training, and my goal is to keep it alive for the summer, so here are some "BEFORE" shots, we'll see how it goes in August when I take more photos of it on the last day of UB!
Rooster

We move into the Upward Bound residence hall pretty soon, and Amanda and I went over early to bring some stuff over and to move her in before she headed off to Atlanta (and missed staff training for a lovely conference). Anyways, when we walked into her room, we were met with quite possibly the ugliest wall paper of all time.
Thrifting Around
posted by Matt
Mullen and I went out thrift shopping because we were at a loss at what we actually wanted to do. I knew there were some ice trays that I wanted at Goodwill, and it was a nice chance to finally meet Katie instead of awkwardly only kind of knowing her. We started with the Hands of Hope Thrift...
P-Town, P-Funk

P-Town, P-Funk involves a random excursion down to the Portland area with a story wrapped in 90s flashback boat parties, rich islands, sketchy bathrooms, geocaching, George Clinton, aliens, and flatbread!
Les Deux Masques

Not a whole lot to say about this one. Caitlin and I were in AC Moore and we decided to try on some lovely masks. They reminded me of the masquerade scene in Labyrinth!
A La Marchè

The great thing about Hipstamatic is that it is always right there with you for the moments you could've missed if you didn't have another camera! I believe that is the greatest aspect of mobile photography right now! Such an instance was when Nikita, her family, and I were in Wal Mart and we came across this lovely coconut pulp! Fist of all, this is disgusting (I hate coconut), but that isn't where the true interest was to be focused.
Eat Your Heart Out

This year for Mara’s birthday I wanted to get something semi-spooky, yet classy, and I found that very directly on Etsy (they have everything!). I came across these wonderful anatomical screen prints on repurposed dinerware! It was serendipitous to say the least. I ordered the...
The Experiment Station
posted by Matt
Some friends and I are in a dinner theater group together and we needed to take some PR photos for our group. Our projects have mostly been within the theme of steampunk / lab / nomadic tavern aesthetics, so we thought the "Experiment Station" (Holmes Hall) on campus would be perfect for this type of shoot. These are just some photos I took of various things within the building as it is a pretty intriguing place to visit!
Winter Fright
posted by Matt
Just when you think Winter might be over, you get a crazy freak ice/wind/snow/hail/twilight zone storm in the middle of the night. On this particular night, a friend and I went to the movies and on our way back we were met with a downed tree in the road. He picked the branches out of the road, and when we got back home the parking lot was covered.
