photog class

So last night was my first night of my photography class from Heather Mildenstein. It is a class for beginners. She was teaching the basics of the basics. When I say I'm beginner, that is an understatement. My eyes were completely opened last night. My friend Jenny has taken me out once to teach me some things, so I didn't feel completely stupid (thanks Jenny) ... but there is so so much to learn.

I realized how far I need to go, but how exciting this is for me. I have felt lately that my life is kind of stagnant...you know not really progressing academically. Apparently the Kardashians and the Biggest Loser aren't cutting it anymore. I think this is what I needed! She gave all of us homework and I can't wait to get to my assignments. Anyone have any good places around Utah County where I can take some fun photos?

I also realized that I want to buy a new lens and a cute bag to carry my camera around in. I am in love with this one. I'm beginning to realize this might be a bad hobby to have where my bank account is concerned.
