Update!

Kombucha turned out delicious.  I have now stopped making it.

To be continued...

Bucha Baby!

Lately I've been altruistically motivated. Plans are a flowin'!

Well, in the mean time, here is something I've been meaning to do:

Brew Kombucha! I heart kombucha, and a friend from Seattle gave me a baby.

OoOOoooOOoooOOooOoo....

Not over... yet.

Alright. Hello all. I will try to prevail at this blog stuff.  In the mean time...

Update:

 I have officially failed at this.

One Month

Ohh, as it was pointed out by a friend, it has been exactly one month since starting this blog. Consistency, fail - unless I decide to do a monthly blog (which is more likely to happen). So if that's the case, I am succeeding - the glass is half full.

For a while I have been trying to figure out a reason for this blog. I won't be posting about my daily life, so I've gone the route of trying to be creative. Thus, I will use this blog to motivate myself in indulging in all things creative. 

I am no artist, but I like to try. So, I'll update with random art projects I may attempt - film, photos, origami, music, building bat boxes or other things, etc. All things I would like to be accomplished at, all things that I have no idea where to start. 

But it's all good, life is art. Yes, that was cheezy.

2003 - Mock Picasso's Don Quixote using Word Paint. 
I should have been studying for exams. It was a good five minute distraction.

Baby steps.

First things first... equipment. Yay and Ugh... This may be pricey, but I guess its better than spending money on drugs. Along with the outdoor gear I'd like to purchase, this should be AWESOME. I have to learn how to use all these new toys, but that's whats going to be the best part. Trial and error. 

Why am I doing this? I don't like to be idle, and this seems to be a good way of exercising my brain. Plus, with the inspiration and help of many creative friends, why not. 

It's spring, time for a new beginning (although, the photo below was not taken in the spring). 

Summer, 2007 - Mt. Rainier National Park. Shot with a Holga.

Day One

Well... another day, another year, another attempt at a blog. This is my first attempt since having a LiveJournal years ago. I'm still editing the layout, so this is not a significant post.


Lets see if I can be consistent at this.


It doesn't matter to me if I am.
