And the pain in thee @$$ of an ice-storm this past weekend. Oh wait, i guess those are the sacrifices we make. This is after all, New England… I worry for those still out of power. I spoke to a few classmates before engaging into a science final, and some had moved into hotels. It was clearly the weekend from hell, but in the end of it all, sometimes you are able to see who is there for you, and who is not, when your life is potentially on the line. I won’t ever forget that freezing feeling, the house stooping to a bitter 52 degrees. Huddling together, keeping every bit of heat you can below the sheets in order to get a halfway decent rest before the morning comes again. My Girlfriend and I, along with her dad, searched everywhere for a generator, her dad going as far as south of Boston, no luck. And to make matters worse, her apartment flood, the whole first floor. That was a major buzz-kill to an already bad beginning. Her father and her, both got extremely sick. I got the remains of it, and was feeling very sick, though not upchucking thank god. I was not well for sure, but I managed to get out in the freezing cold and grab a few shots of the days events. One made it front and center into the front page of the newspaper which i was not expecting. Another was the other day taking photos for my nephews mom so she could make christmas cards, the photo came out great but you can see the mistake in the DOP(seeforyourself). Another was tonight, i really enjoyed it. Two people were ’strolling in the streets’, enjoying the weather and going to the local convenience store and i just stopped dead in my tracks, literally making my jeep slide about five feet until it finally came to a silent stop, hence the faint artificial lighting you can see towards the bottom of the frame. Well, Merry Christmas everyone, and a happy holidays.
