So, I've decided that in July, I am going to move to New Orleans. This is pretty much certain, unless something unexpected happens that would stop me from going. I can't even think of anything that would keep me here at this point. Maybe if my dream job fell into my lap. Or I fell madly in love. I'm not expecting, or even necessarily hoping for, ( Read more... )

So, I'm on my way to achieving one of the things on my crazy list of things I want to do. I registered with Team In Training yesterday, and went to my first training session this morning. I was running around Lake Merritt at 8 AM. Unheard of! I don't think I've ever made such a big decision/commitment so quickly in my life. One day I'm requesting ( Read more... )

Ok, so it's a new year and I have some resolutions. I always do, and I never fulfill them, but this year I'm really going to try to make some change. 2009 was a good year in some aspects, like getting to travel, graduating college, etc, but I feel like it was kind of lacking in a lot of ways. Since finishing school my progress in life has ( Read more... )

Getting my car back (way sooner than expected, and without the $2000 worth of parts ( Read more... )

I am really bad at keeping up with this thing. I have just been way too busy. I went to Louisiana, it was awesome. Alligators, thunder storms, warm water beaches/rivers, tubing, helicopter ride, seafood, crab trapping, crab eating, four wheeling, hotel on Bourbon Street, dueling piano bar, super wasted, really embarrassing karaoke, hung over, ( Read more... )

I'm leaving tomorrow on a trip to New Orleans for about a week. Packing is really stressing me out. I hate being so limited in my wardrobe. I'm already the kind of person who puts on like 10 different outfits before going out. I realize that most of the time it looks like I don't give a shit what I look like, but when I'm going out I really do care ( Read more... )

Graduated college this weekend. It feels good. Also, weird. Now I need to figure out what's next. Might be getting some new interesting opportunities to expand my skills at work. Could be fun. Probably going to start photo assisting other photographers. Learning new techniques and skills. Networking. Need to continue shooting. Developing my style. ( Read more... )

I forgot to mention, I've started a photo blog, to act as a sort of website until I get my act together and make a real one. There's not much on it yet, but I plan on keeping up on it once school is over and my life calms down a little.

Things have been pretty crazy. I'm 3 weeks away from graduating. School has basically been dominating my life. I wish I could say I'm on top of it, but chances are I won't be until it's over. I have a paper due tomorrow at noon that I have not even started yet. Yes, I realize that's 12 hours from now. It's looking like it won't be done. Oh well, I' ( Read more... )

I am so not productive right now. Or at all this quarter. I'm so close to the end and I'm just shutting down. I can't focus and I don't really know why. I have no motivation to do anything. I just want to be done. But I don't get to be done if I don't pass my classes, which I won't if I don't do the work. I just have too much. It's too much and I ( Read more... )
