The show came and went

The show has been off the wall now for over a month. After my big opening night I wasn't sure how I felt. Overall I guess the whole thesis process really drained me. After watching my final product hundreds of times I now almost feel like I want to do it all over again. In May I will leave art school having earned my BFA and I'm not sure where I will go. Over the past month I have been going to interviews and I even shot a fee lance assignment for the Washington Times. Having now looked at my portfolio with several professionals in the photography world I feel like it just looks like more student work. I now feel confident to go out into the world for myself and make work for me and not for my professors. I am done bending to guidelines of projects given to me for a grade. I have my skills and I have my camera and I am ready to step out into the world and use them. I want to continue shooting couch surfing but in a different way. Perhaps I will at some point find a cs'er to follow and document, which is an option I didn't have before because I had to stay close to DC for class.
