Everywhere I Go lyrics
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me all that i should know
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to be
To evoke some empathy
Danger will follow me now
Everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well this tired mind
Just wants to be lead home
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to see
Show me all that i could be
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be yeah
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me why i feel so low
Angels will follow me now
Everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well these tired eyes
Just want to remain closed
I don't see clearly can't feel nothing no
Can't you hear me?
And i fall on my knees
And angels will call on me
Now everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me all that i should know
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to be
To evoke some empathy
Danger will follow me now
Everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well this tired mind
Just wants to be lead home
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to see
Show me all that i could be
And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be yeah
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me why i feel so low
Angels will follow me now
Everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well these tired eyes
Just want to remain closed
I don't see clearly can't feel nothing no
Can't you hear me?
And i fall on my knees
And angels will call on me
Now everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home

17: Iron and Wine -
It's been a favorite of mine for a while now.
such a quiet promise
Love and Some Verses
Love is a dress that you made
long to hide your knees
love to say this to your face,
"I'll love you only"
for your days and excitement,
what will you keep for to wear?
someday drawing you different,
may I be weaved in your hair?
Love and some verses you hear
say what you can't say
love to say this in your ear,
"I'll love you that way"
from your changing contentments,
what will you choose for to share?
someday drawing you different,
may I be weaved in your hair?

16: Chopin - 1834
I don't know. I just can't get over Chopin.
When I hear this, I always think of Stephen playing it
on our old stand-up piano at home.
I see my brother most alive when he is playing piano, as if nothing else in the world mattered then.
If he was upset, mad, or impatient before it is merely pushed used through the music and the piano .
I miss being in a home
that is filled constantly with music... be it piano, trombone, clarinet, drums, or even (god forbid) bagpipes....

Andrew Henderson
Documentary Photographer came to our Photo as a Narrative class Monday night.
He went to RIT, photographed in Uganda and Rwanda for a bit, went to school for history and is now working for newspapers.
He actually photographed a Burmese family in Rochester, which just so happens to be my final project as well....
Talked to him afterward and said even if you are a bad photographer, you will become a great photographer if you revisit this family again and again.
maybe there is hope for me after all.
If you want to be a photographer, then you have to work. and work. and work.

13: Where the Hell is Matt? - 2009
Dancing 2009
the happiest video ever.
all the people who are dancing with him emailed him after seeing his first videos of him dancing by himself. He invited them to dance with him on his next trip around the world.
Goal: make a project where people can actually feel something at being a part of my work.

12: Beethoven - 1825
Heiliger Dankgesang eines Genesenen an die Gottheit, in der lydischen Tonart
(A Convalescent's Holy Song of Thanksgiving to the Divinity)
This is in the Lydian Mode. I wish I paid more attention in Theory class all those years ago, so I could recognize what that is in other works.
Beethoven wrote this shortly after recovering from a deadly illness. My brother, Stephen, suggested I listen to this piece, and (as always) I am so glad that I did.
If hope and peace breathed, I think it would sound like this
11: Will Yurman-2010
"The answer to the why question gives your audience a reason to care."
This photojournalist / professor gave me the worst grade I've gotten since Pre-Calc and Trig back in 11th grade.
This important quote is the last sentence in the email I received about my first interviews for my Multimedia for Photojournalists class. He is absolutely right. This whole quarter all my professors have spoken time and time again on question of "Why Should We Care" about this project or that person. Being able to answer that question for every topic proposal, every interview, every photograph is pivotal. Only after we photojournalists give the viewer an understanding of why we care and why a person lives a certain way can he respond to the stories we are telling them.
10: Lisa Wiltse - 2010
her use of the frame is exactly what we've been talking about in class
her portraits and moments make projects that have the same urgent feeling of truth that I would like to see happen within my own future projects
9: PostSecret - 2010
I just think this is great and whenever I stumble
across notes like these, I thank God....
not just for the person who wrote it but also
for the person who dropped it here for me to find
