Roommates

Moving into your first apartment brings a few changes. Throughout this summer we have experienced almost every aspect of functional failure within this building. Our gas, internet, and air conditioning has gone out us not to mention our chairs rolling downhill due to a foundation slant. We have hosted up to eight guests at a time and hosted one uninvited visitor aka a wild bird that snuck its way into our living room. Luckily, each of us contributes something unique to turn this hundred year old building into a home. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

All You Need Is (Puppy) Love

 Meet Bentley. Possibly one of the most adorable dogs of all time. This pup has brains and spunk.

Road Tripping

I am liking the looks of the open road these days. It's nice to just get on the highway and drive through little towns with good friends. Heres a summary of the ride from Springfield, MO.

A Visit to the Hopkins High School Photo Room

I have not worked with film in a while but heres the result of half a roll taken at HHS. Many of my favorite high school experiences can be traced back to the photo room. My interest in photography started here and the free independent environment was the best place for it to grow.

What's cookin' good lookin'

I love cooking breakfast. Newest obsession: cinnamon sugar french toast with fresh berries. 

Of Montreal

Of Montreal overtook 9th street as a part of Columbia's Summerfest. The band was the first of the free concert series and certainly started it off right. The indie psychedelic pop/rock band is led by Kevin Barnes who brought energy to the stage supported by his crew of live theatresque actors that expressed a story of sexual liberation. 

Wiz Khalifa

Wiz Khalifa raps at the Black Programming Committee's Customer Appreciation Concert Monday night in The Blue Note. Khalifa played tracks off his newest mixtape Kush and Orange Juice.

Second City

The Second City performs on their 50th Anniversary tour  Sunday night in the Missouri Theatre. The improv group's alumni include comedic legends Mike Meyers, John Belushi, and Steven Colbert. These guys had me laughing until my abs hurt. My favorite sketch was their improvised musical about a vegetable photographer evicted from his treehouse studio apartment.
