Peg face

last night we decided to try and fit as many pegs on tims face as possible.

i think his face was quite swollen when i saw him this morning but i haven't seen him since, poor tim.

course is going good, most of the induction stuff is finally over although if i ever get talked through another course handbook i'll kill myself.

1st day

today was my first day of my life for the next three years.

i am now partaking in a degree in photojournalism at the LCC in london.

as part of the 'icebreaking' process we we're asked to pair up with someone and go out and take some portraits of them, i was with georgina and she has mental red long hair, so i suggested she wrap it round her face like a scarf.

im really happy with this photo.

the course seems awesome, still doing all the induction stuff though so obviously thats a bit boring / tedious, once thats all over it will start to be fun.

Holy ghost

about a week ago me and some friends went to a small exhibition at 'the other space' in a pub in south london.

it was an exhibition of work by a collective known as 'Holy Ghost' they run a pretty awesome blog that mainly focuses on artistic still photography and has artists contributing from all over the place, if youre into that kind of thing check it out, you will like it.

the telephone above was really cool, it would play different conversations and stuff when you pressed each number and there were also loads of plane spotting photos.

the second photo in the series of typically awful student situations, this time me and my house mates tackle the issue of communal bathrooms.

this was a nightmare to set up, but well worth it.

on saturday me joe, thom, phil and tim moved into our new house in london.

this will be my home for the next year or so as i start university, the house is really nice and living with your friends is awesome.

my student loan should come in today, i hope it does as at the moment i have less than ten pounds to my name.
