What's up

Not Me!

In case you hadn't heard, I had ankle surgery 2 weeks ago. I have not been able to put any weight on my right foot at all since then. It appears I have at least another 2 weeks to go before I can walk. But the silver lining is...Wednesday, I can shower (don,t worry I have been bathing, just with my right leg tightly taped and hanging out of the tub)

I am hoping in two weeks I can get rid of the walker and upgrade to a cane....yipee!!

Christmas

Can anyone guess the noise this fancy item makes when you pull it's finger???




Here's some pictures from Christmas. I threw in some pictures of myself with my walker as promised to the sick ladies that I work with!

Big Day




It's Christmas Eve!! My present to myself arrived in the mail today.....Business Cards!!!..ohhh, ahhh..I know.




I am still a student, and a long way from being a highly paid, top shelf, famous photographer....but it is one more step on the ladder...besides, I have recently had a few people ask for business cards, so...there ya have it.

End of the semester, End of the year


So, here we are at the end of the semester. I can't believe it has gone so quickly. I am so glad that I signed up for this class, I feel like I have a much better understanding of how my camera functions. I am a little sad that we didn't work more with understanding composition, what makes a good shot etc. But I suppose that will come with experience.


I would also like to say (in case anyone at Meramac is reading) I would have quickly signed up for a Digital Photography 2 class if one had been offered. I will not sign up for film classes, so until more digital is offered, I suppose I am finished with photography classes at STLCC. That being said, I am looking forward to my Photoshop class.


At the beginning of 2009 I vowed to make some changes, I am happy to report, I followed through! I quit smoking February 16th, I lost a little weight, and I went back to school and found my 'calling'...not a bad year all in all. I no longer need to joke about what I am going to do when I grow up, I have found it.
