Well it's been awhile.

Before I go into *why* it's been awhile, let's try and move through some of my robot photo shoots eh?

I'll also throw up a classmates work or two, just cause.











I'm sure you can tell which are mine. (hint: they look like robots)

I also did a few different combinations. These things can combine together in more than just a few ways, so the only real limit would be your *IMAAAGINATIOOON*.

... the next ones I'm working are are going to be even crazier in terms of combination abilities. CRAZY! (hopefully actually achievable though)





eh, just some pretty pictures on campus I shot with one of the lenses I bought and fixed up. I'm going to sell this lens off, but I'm impressed that even after being battered around for years, being almost as old as me, and still having fungal residue inside of it, the thing still manages to take great pictures. Go canon woo!

anyways.

So my mom came and visited me!

It was only for two days because the actual purpose of flying out here was to use japan as a layover for her continued trip on to australia (to visit pa (my australian grandfather)), but all the same it was very enjoyable!

We went shopping for food stuffs and gifts and clothing, and wandered around the shinjuku area quite a bit.

Sadly mom couldn't come out to visit campus because of jetlag exhaustion, but we got to eat a fantastic thanksgiving dinner at a classy little traditional japanese place.

They brought multiple tiny perfectly prepared dishes, each one set to compliment the others in terms of taste and texture.

The tastes were so subtle and perfect... and of course the whole staff was virtually tripping over themselves to make the experience as perfect as possible. Very enjoyable.

In any case, I actually didn't take many pictures while we were walking around (as much of it was inside a very large nearby japanese department store) so I compensated by taking pictures out of the hotel rooms window. And, wow, what a view.








now I hope this gives you some sense of scale of what tokyo is like. And it isn't only like this in one direction either. It's like this 360 degrees around from where the hotel was.

Literally a sea of a city. I doubt any one person has even explored the whole thing. It's just simply insane.




Pictures of me and mum!

I don't really like putting pictures of me up, but, well if I'm going to put my mom on I might as well extend myself as well.

Thankfully my twisted smile doesn't look so menacing as it does bemused in this picture, and my mom has the whole thoughtful city gaze going on, so the combination isn't terrible or anything.

We did spend quite a bit of time just talking and looking out at the city, so I guess it is a pretty fitting picture in the end.

...

homwork is crunching down over here, and my time at musabi will soon draw to an end.

Can you believe that another semester has already almost passed by? Good god.

Soon I'm going to have to actually apply the skills I've learned or starve.

Thankfully I've learned the joys of amazingly cheap fast eating over here, so I'll probably die of hypothermia or something before I give into starvation.

MAN. I really need to start making posts more frequently. I *swear* I had more to say, but it seems to have trickled out of my head at some point.

blah.

waah.

I have less classes than ever before.

and more work as well.

How does this make sense?

well, lot's of homework assignments here are very open ended. And the people here have good work ethic. and I'm competitive/ enjoy the work as well.

Sooo... yeah.

Anyways!

dancing people!


















Took these all from up in the balcony area on a zoom, (later found out I wasn't supposed to take any pictures at all. haha.) sadly the lighting wasn't so great so I had to turn the iso way up, and because of this the pictures may be a bit grainy when zoomed in.

oh well. These dancers were all pros by the way.

Sadly I did not expect the train ride to this place to take TWO AND A HALF HOURS. So I missed all the people my age dancing. BOO.

That being said on the first sunday (saturday?) of december there will be another EVEN BIGGER dance competition. So I'll probably head to that one earlier so I don't miss out.

...

ALSO. ROBOTS. YAAAAY ROBOTS. So I did a short photoshoot with my robots outdoors. For this shoot I put them all together into one big robot for convenience. Since there are many MANY ways to combine them, this big robot is just one of many possible combinations.

My class is going to do a studio shoot this saturday (or monday) so I'll probably make a new big robot and shoot some pictures of it that way too.









(haha, the little guys aren't mine, but how could I tell an epic story of the great ROBO waking up from a thousand year sleep to go on a rampage without them?)

Yeah. I love these little guys.

Honestly If I was a kid I would have played with them ALL the time. But, then again, I did have legos, so It might have been a tossup.

MmmmmmMmm...

I sort of have more to say, but I should really get back to drawing for illustration class.

I will leave you with this view from outside of where I live as the sun sets.
