So this is my last photo. It's from today and I know I've missed a few days but when I'm quitting, it doesn't matter that much.<br /><center><a href=http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac145/intoruth/Project%20365/Photoon2010-12-10at2307.jpg><img src=http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac145/intoruth/Project%20365/Photoon2010-12-10at2307.jpg border=0 width=480></a></centeR><br />I think this has served its purpose; I'm taking more photos, but I think if I were to do it again, I should pick a theme, what I have taken here is a quite an interesting diaristic set, but it does somewhat lack consistency. Although, maybe this has affected how I work in the real world and I've been able to develop more of style.<br />Sorry I gave up, but I'm so stressed right now and I really did give it a good try.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02209013825661248794noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015921311201646479.post-39014494713308037542010-12-06T11:33:00.002+00:002010-12-06T12:04:35.081+00:00Day 338.<center><a href=http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac145/intoruth/Project%20365/DSC_0089.jpg><img src=http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac145/intoruth/Project%20365/DSC_0089.jpg border=0 width=480></a><font size=1><div align=right>© Ruth Johnston 2010.</font></div></center><br />I've not been on top form this week, today was practically missed out, despite thinking about it for most of the day.

Wasn't helpful either, I should have brought in what I printed off, she didn't print it off, now I'm bringing it to her tomorrow and she's going to post it back... I sense something a bit risky about this, perhaps more risky than the fact I walked home in the dark.

I had already fallen on Friday night and severely messed up my hand, it still hurts now actually. But I made Moon promise me that he wouldn't let me fall; before I'm even drunk or near Babylon, I trip over the curb and because of my sore hand I have to essentially fall flat on my face, this is the result.

We had a nice afternoon, they took me out for lunch at Giraffe, where I had a sushi rice salad, I'll be honest with you, it wasn't great.<br />I took this mug though, my aunt had a coffee and look how nice it is, as I'm ever getting my own coffee at Giraffe, now I can have tea in it all time. I think I need to stop nicking beverage containers, this is my second one so far this school year!<br />Apologies for the 'camera-phone like' quality, I don't know what's going on there.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02209013825661248794noreply@blogger.com0
