A couple “Bangs”

Now that I’m home, I’ve signed up for a couple classes. I know, spending money is not what I’m supposed to do. But I finally have time and I decided to take advantage of it.

Futura Lite 30 & 18

Last Wednesday, I finally started my letterpress class at the Armory Center for the Arts.

Japan Film Society Winstons Bar Night

What do I want to be when I grow up?

I’ve been wondering about that all my life. Of course I don’t have the answer. Or, most likely, didn’t recognize it and walked away. Hmmm, seems like my MO.
