I thought these were cute so I bought them... not sure how to use them though. So I've carried them around with me for... a year? I want to use them but how?

I can't show this to you because I got it from a friend. He and his friends do a funny photoshoot for the calendar. I won't show it without his permission. I don't know, one of the worst things you can do to someone, in my opinion, is betray them.
I have some math/physics stuff on the back because I was helping my boyfriend with some stuff. I really miss high school math and doing problems. I wish that it wasn't so... harsh here. Not sure if that's the right word.

This is one of the cameras I have. I consider myself to be a photographer. It's what my main practice was for awhile, it's the thing I know the most about, it's what I study in art history. I love photography so much. I prefer black and white film because I love the darkroom, but digital is good too.
I miss the darkroom. In highschool, you were kind of allowed to skip class (like, you wouldn't get in trouble. It's hard to explain but everyone did it) and I would skip class to go to the darkroom. I would literally be in there from 8:30 - 18:00. Sometimes longer. I kind of lived down there. Skipping class was okay as long as you were doing it to further yourself in some way.

I got these because I'm dehydrated all of the time. I think it's a thyroid thing or a pre-diabetes thing but I always need water. This kind of helped, but I prefer the taste of water over some weird artificially flavored water. Still dehydrated though.

Just some pens. I think I got them from VIS? Figma Micron pens are pretty great, highly recommend.

I think I got this at the activities fair my freshman year. I don't know why I still have it. It's hard to look at.

Just some scissors. I think I brought the other pair to my studio. I used to have three, I don't know how I lost a pair of scissors in my own room.

During the creation of this project I lost these cards... clearly they must not have been that important. But I can show you something else that you might like?

I used these to mark my progress with excercise. Despite the way they look I have used a bunch but definitely not recently. I want to reward myself for even smalls things because I need to learn to stpo beating myself up. I love stickers so it's a win-win.

I used this to track my weight loss. I also use this to make sure clothes will fit me. I haven't used it in a pretty long time. It kind of reminds me of my mom and the not-so-healthy things I did in middle school and high school. It's almost triggering? But I have to get over it because I do need to lose weight and not be literally obese anymore (I do know what the word literally means and yes, I used it correctly).

It's masking tape. Want more do you want? I think I've had it since freshman year though.

I should throw this away.

I wanted to put this on my computer but it feels weird to do it now. Like a sign of privilage. I feel lucky. I don't feel lucky to have qualified early but I feel lucky to be in a place where I can even get it.

These are tacks. I use it to tack things.
