A business, projects, and... college interviews.   _{But the good news is, I've been accepted to Berkeley and UCLA so far!}
Anyways, those three things have essentially been my life as of late.


The Business

In short, senior year hasn't been quite as relaxing as everyone told me it would be! Well, I suppose part of that is my own fault, because my friend and I started a little business of sorts 2 weeks ago: Cookies to Go. We take orders from people in San Diego (or, soon, from all over the country once we open up our shipping option officially), we bake them from scratch, and we deliver/ship them to their doors--and 25% of the profit goes to charity. We're just starting up, but we've been getting steady business! We'd really, really appreciate it if you'd like our Facebook page, as we could use all the support we can get!

Or, for those of you who prefer other ways of networking, we have a Tumblr and a Twitter too (We'll follow you back if you tell us you're from dA!)

Some of our baked things that I've uploaded to dA (that I couldn't resist photographing, naturally) :



There are a lot more on our site, but I'll keep uploading them to dA if you guys like them!

Photography

For those of you who watch me solely for photography (which is probably most of you ), I've still been photographing up a storm; instead of water and snails, however, it's been abstracts, baked goods (above), and some portrait work here and there. Because of the understandably less-than-enthusiastic reception of my abstract work on dA, I've stopped uploading it mostly--but I've turned it into a photo essay, with people's interpretations of the photos and the photos themselves about to be turned into a book.
In other photo-related news, I've been featured in two La Jollan (San Diego) exhibitions: one, a big fundraiser in the area, and the other, a museum called the Athenaeum.

That's pretty much been my life minus the typical school load of being stupid enough to take 7 classes, 5 of them being APs... And therefore, I've had significantly less time for dA, sadly! I've been catching up on my 1,500 comments, though... thank you to everyone who continues to support me with the kind comments and faves
Also, the Genesis contest has been canceled for the time being, due to a very low number of entries as well as my own extended absence. I'll have another one soon though!

And, for those of you who commented on my last watcher feature offer that I never managed to put up (I'm sorry ), I'll be doing another one soon, don't worry
