Life isn't black and white. It's a million gray areas, don't you find? - Ridley Scott
This blog will act as an attempt to chronicle what is sure to be one of the most ridiculously confusing, interesting and wild years I've ever experienced.

By compiling a series of 365 black and white photos and accompanied text you're invited to follow along the ride of an undergraduate student with severe biophilia. This year will mark a year that I leave the continent, graduate from my Bachelors degree, start graduate studies, try to make heads and tails of life and and search for an elusive tiger beetle.

Feel free to post feedback, ask questions, and give suggestions. Hope that your 2013 is looking to be a wonderful, wonderful year.

15. The last day of Christmas

At some point it becomes time to take down the Christmas tree. Luckily, I have a tiny Norfolk Island pine, and instead of dragging the tired Balsam Fir to the woods, I get to enjoy the beauty of my little tree throughout the year. However, I did feel it necessary to remove the sole ornament (Lights will stay on for occasional studying aid, relaxation and general ambience of course).

If you look in the reflection of the ornament, you can see me with my faithful Pentax. It's been a wonderful camera for me (though I still do miss the Canon Rebel which I traded in for this one three years ago). The best part of a Pentax (the audible click). CLICK.

Getting back into the swing of things now, and looking forward to the semester being underway. I've found it hard to keep focused, and there has been a lot of distraction from non-point sources. I don't know what's been really happening per-say, but I'll figure it out as I go along. That usually seems to be the case.

All the best to all of you all, & keep on keeping on.

    I had (have) a lovely Norfolk Island Pine for my Christmas tree as well. It also had one lonely ornament on it, or I should say HAS one lonely ornament on it, as I have yet to remove it. Although lights did not make it out of storage to be put on it. Maybe I still will! ;)
