Finally got my replacement drive. Now it’s just a matter of getting my friend to get my files off the old one! Hopefully I’ll be able to finish my website REALLY soon!!
So those of you who actually pay attention to my tumblr have probably noticed that I haven’t posted anything in a really long time….I also have yet to update my website. Unfortunately, this is because my external hard drive’s USB port broke. A good friend of mine said that if I got a replacement, he could switch out the casings for me. Luckily, it’s still under warranty. Unluckily, when I called Western Digital to request that they send me a new one, they were not interested in helping me. SO I need to figure out another way to get my files off my broken drive. Thanks, WD.
So once I solve that issue, my site will be up almost immediately, since I was about to finish it when it broke and I’ll also be able to post on my tumblr like crazy since I have A LOT of new work.
Until then, you can follow me on Pinterest, where I’ve been posting older work and more personal, fun stuff as well.
INTRODUCING: Because I’m Not (The Rejection Series)
I am very, very, very pleased to announce that starting in 2012, I will begin a new series of self portraits entitled Because I’m Not (The Rejection Series).
Throughout my life, I have always had mishaps with girls. Things never really went according to plan, and more often than not, I was not enough, in one way or another, at least in my mind, for the girl that I pursued. After having yet another one of those mishaps occur once again, and rather recently, I started to think about them… you know, about all the rejections that I have faced. And, instead of dwelling and being pissed off about it, and ranting on social networking sites, and calling the girl a cold-hearted selfless bitch whom has no idea what the fuck she really wants…well, I decided to make a series about all of those rejections that I have faced instead. And while thinking about them, I came to a conclusion. A conclusion, which, at the termination of this series, I hope, will be evident to all of those that view it.
Big thanks to Catey Shaw for helping me shoot this as well as help with the spray paint and construction of the set.
