{ Autumn , and the kid photographer…}

It truly feels as if autumn is here, doesn’t it? The days are darker, the leaves more crimson, and there is that crisp fresh breeze in the air that one could only associate with autumn. : ) I love it. School starts tomorrow. I had to go in yesterday too – to meet my form tutor, my new form, and to have our photographs taken. There are sixteen – yes, SIXTEEN! – new girls. Sixteen! How will I ever remember them all? I met some lovely people though, and one lovely Victoria is going to be in Ancient Greek with me so I’m happy about that. My form are nice too, and my form tutor is a little strict (still lovely though) but I think she’ll improve.  I liked my photograph too….So, yes. It should be fun. I’m taking English Literature, Politics, German, Religious Studies and Ancient Greek – and I can’t wait, strange as it sounds, to be doing homework again and going to the library for private study and eating in the lunch hall. I just love it. As you well know!  I have a few photographs I was pleased with to share. They so signify that autumn feeling to me – the light, the bokeh, everything…. – I love that it’s coming. It makes me so happy.

And, what else…minus my autumn loves and rambles…well, I picked up my apples for my teachers today – tradition we have – and I had my hair chopped…yep, yesterday before I went into school. All my beautiful long curls gone. But I like it. I needed a change. Not to self: take an SP sometime. It was just getting unmanageable, it was so long…truly. It was hard to wash and I never ever blow-dry my hair so it took forever to dry naturally, and it was all tangly and full of split ends. It’s still classified as long though. :) . And I looked after my cousin today – he goes into Year 2 tomorrow. How adorable is that?! He is getting so grown-up though, and guess what…? He wants to be a photographer when he’s older. I let him use my old film SLR for fun, with no film in, and he loved loved loved it. And it gave me a chance to capture him…. :) Here.

….a little self-portrait ;) …

And, one sans camera…. :)

And that’s all from me….

Love ya, Lulu
