  • vacation to my alternate life


    In an alternate life I'd be in this photo with my portfolio hanging on those black boards. I'd be standing around for eight hours listen to people tell me what they think of my work. Sounds grueling. Sounds like the ghost of Christmas past. A little reality check. Amazing how your life can change in a year. From desperately poor to doing quite well. From unemployed to overemployed. From loving life to hating life. (sorta?)

    Next stop Vancouver. My other alternate life virtually lived...

  • Spring, Freeline and Short Track

    It's hard to blog when work seems more important. But yesterday I stumbled upon something outside of photojournalism to be excited about. Freeline Skates

    Hopefully they're in the mail. It took me about 500ths of a second to figure I should buy them. Infact, I watched the videos. Went straight to the buy page. Went back and watched the video again and again. Spring is a dangerous time for my bank account.

    In other news and notes...Had two job offers last month (Ocean City, MD and Nashua, NH) both of which I sadly turned down. But being fulltime now in Bay City seems pretty comfortable and happy for the most part. No working weekends, no working nights... although all I seem to do is work. With more friends and a larger pay check it's hard to think about moving just yet.

    Another audio slide show up. World Short Track Speed Skating Championships Love the road trip assignments.

  • If you're flying across the country and have to pick an airport to connect through I recommend the Phoenix Airport. Free Wifi.

    On my way to Vancouver for new years! Nothing like a throw back to university days to bring in a new year. Don't know how many of these trips I have left though. It took some wrangling just to get Friday off. I think I already miss the flexible life style of being freelance/intern and I haven't even officially started full time yet.

    But I assuming these trivial tantrums wear-off?! once you see your larger paycheck and free dental cleanings.

    But that's a muse for next month. This month I'll just lavish in my carefree world of expanding debt and tivo addiction.

    uuupp. preboarding. and now back on to the plane. hopefully this time I can change the channel and actually listen to the movie. Not that I need to hear or watch the Krank's Christmas.
