Beginning of a splash

I took 400+ pictures at Owen Beach. The splash is what I wanted most to make.





Here is my splash I plan on building with an oval plywood base.

 The splash was a bit challenging when I got it in the water. I had balloons to hold up "water" droplets, which turned out to be a bad idea at first. The wind was blowing towards the shore at first, then the wind changed when I was ready to leave, so I waited and the balloons helped pull it out from the shore and I was able to get some good pictures. The water was causing it to fall apart.

Stuck in the Mud

Integrating myself with a location near or on campus that I could connect with somehow was not easy. I have been felt rather disconnected to everything lately and a little stuck. That stuck feeling seemed to work out though, because as I walked around campus I walked by the train tracks and saw the mud that was brought up when the heavy construction equipment was moved down behind the library. That was it. I was stuck in the mud.

There I am, stuck in the mud feeling a little overwhelmed and half buried by the stress and responsibilities in life.

Here I am, stuck in the mud, maybe I'll be able to dig my way out so I can continue on my path.

I was walking around campus and I felt like I couldn't attach myself to anything around me. I haven't spent much time on or near campus this quarter. I walked by the train tracks and noticed how much mud was displaced by the heavy equipment that was moved to the back side of the library. I felt kinda stuck in the mud. I had taken on too much in January. I was doing so much outside of homework I my homework was suffering. I was too embarrassed to ask for help, I was digging my self a messy hole. So, here I am. Standing in my wet hole in the ground getting rained on. The weather was a perfect addition, completing the mood.
