Do Not X-Ray

M here-

Life is weird. After setting up the Bolex, I freaked out for a hot second because I could not see ANYTHING in the viewfinder. The problem? I had forgotton to OPEN the viewfinder using this little nob located at the top of the camera. Up means closed. Down means open. DUH.

But in a strange twist of fate, because I had fretted over the camera for about half and hour, the sis and I were late to lunch, and in turn we were late coming back to the room.

But the thing is, if we hadn't of been late coming back to the dorm, then we would not have seen the DHL truck racing down the street to our dorm with our package of film. If we hadn't seen the truck, we probably would have had to wait for the RAs in the dorm to alert us of our package (and our film inside) until tomorrow or Thursday, totally screwing up the shooting schedule...

So, even though I almost had a heart attack wondering if I broke a school camera that I could definately NOT pay for, it was worth it. Because we got our film on time and in tact.

YES!
