Well Salted

Hi all,
It is that time of year. The semester is over and finals have begun. Since I was taking a nontraditional semester at the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies, I had a different ending to the semester. It included a graduation ceremony and a gallery opening. Here is the night summed up in pictures...

My professor Scott speaking...

Michaela's turn...

The photographers represent...

The writer's represent reading our best documentary EVER!!!

The writers have officially graduated from Salt Institute of Documentary Studies.
WOOO HOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(sorry for all the heads...dad's not a very good photog)

Mona sees the gallery and photos for the first time. She was very pleased.


Kari's photos hanging in the gallery at Salt...check it out!

My excerpt on the wall...oh yeah!

My proud parents talking to Brad (Mona's husband)

I'm so excited to be done with the semester, but a little lost because I went from having a very heavy workload to, well, nothing. Not that I haven't learned a ton at UNE, but this semester definitely trumps all because it was reality. Getting out there, finding a story, writing on deadline and presenting the final product. It was intense, tiring and often stressful, but nothing I will ever regret because it was fun, exciting, educational, experiential, unpredictable and an all around fantastic experience I would recommend to anyone interested in writing, photography or radio.

Even though it is break, I'll be blogging.
So keep on reading and use the comment function to ask me anything!!!
