‘The Lake Project’ by David Maisel.

“Through the large scaled images David Maisel leads us on an almost hallucinatory travel through landscapes that have been entirely transformed by environmental issues and changed by human agency. His photographs of environmentally impacted zones illustrate the issues of contemporary landscape with comparable measures of documentation and metaphor as well as beauty and gloom.”

#I live for the times in which I can see this post once more

ok I have enough money saved up that if I don’t have a job this summer it won’t be a big deal I think. in the next two weeks hopefully I’ll be purchasing my plane tickets to chile. if the wcc doesn’t accept me (they already didn’t accept me for one of the positions I applied for) then I’m going to go to northern washington like 3 weeks from now, camp and whatnot, come back here and maybe that’s when I’ll go backpacking around mt. st. helens, come down to central oregon with my mom and maybe go to this place in the mountains only accessible by horse or plane (it’s her boyfriend’s family’s cabin), head down through CA (don’t know the method of doing this yet. on the way down or the way up I’d definitely stop in the san francisco area), in southern california I have the possibility of staying at a date farm and volunteering there...... and if I don’t have a job job I can devote more time to making art which is actually pretty important right now.

so if I am working for the wcc then that’s good, if I’m not then that’s good too, and I’d get some more travel experience before traveling internationally.

I love the nicer weather and nicer weather means hiking weather but I already miss winter hiking when almost nobody would be on the trails

this computer is freezing every few minutes, my phone won’t turn on, I have an essay due by midnight, the library closes in half an hour, uh,

54% of Yale's 2018 undergrad population came from public schools. The average financial aid at these schools is 46k a year, grants that aren't repaid to the university. Having a rich background does guarantee u a spot, but there is some room.

yeah but how many of those public school kids are kids like me? channelled through magnet or charter school programs dominated by middle/upper middle class families that resources that many poorer schools, or even poorer programs within the same schools that don’t have nearly the same resources.

in addition to being able to access better public schools/educational programs, upper middle class and middle class families can better access things like SAT prep, extracurriculars, application consultation services, counseling, that all help them get into elite schools

also, there are only 4 free applications with a fee waiver for the common app, and if you don’t live near campus there is still the problem of flying back and forth for breaks, especially on campuses like Columbia that do not have good housing options available for things like winter break. there are a lot of expenses that come with college that it’s hard to even think of until they come up.

–(different mod) I know for damn sure they don’t come from public schools like mine. Where the majority of the schools population lives below the poverty line. We mostly go to nearby universities if we make it through our shit schools, because they waive fees for us and we live nearby. There was one kid out of 7 years who managed to break into an ivy league school from my high school and their dad literally owned the golf course nearby lmao. They had to drop out and go to a nearby school because of flight costs back and forth.
