I shot a roll of film in my senior year in high school (or shortly after graduating, I don't remember) with the intention of developing and printing it myself in the darkroom. However, it was a hectic-lazy type of summer, and somewhere in the midst of running around between houses and lazing around and doing nothing the roll of film disappeared.

Then the other day I pulled a cardboard box full of vitamins that my mother'd given me at some point down from the cabinet to make room for booze, and there was the lovely B&W roll amidst the vitamins. I'd been through two major moves (one across the country for school), as well as just some time generally bumming around different areas, and somehow this roll of film resurfaced after I'd long written it off as completely gone.

I don't think I've ever been happier with finding something long lost.

The first is my favorite shot from the roll. I don't even remember taking it.
