Hello Everyone! It;s about time I reflect a bit on what I've been doing these past few weeks, now, and whats to come of my summer and fall.
School: Word of advice: If you are not trying to become a pilot, welder, or truck driver, then BigBend Community College is pretty worthless, at least in my experience. I will not longer be going there after this quarter is over (and as far as I know it may already be over, but wouldn't know that because I have not been able to make it there lately because of my hand. Lame Excuse? Maybe).
Friends: Well it's that time of year again when it just seems like you are loosing all your friends. This year it is not because of any bad reasons, mainly they are just so busy that they don't have time for... me. :)
Living: Well, this weekend I am clearing a bunch of my stuff from my house. I am getting a mini storage unit to put all my stuff. This summer I will be living with my Grandma in Quincy (15 mile drive). That should be fun. ;)
Summer: Right now my plans are Orcas Island, blowing stuff up on the 3rd and 4th of July, more random roadtrips on the weekends, and moving again.
Fall: Where am I moving you ask? That seems to be the big question lately. I've been doing a lot of thinking lately about my life. Some one close to me asked if I live to work or work to live and I seriously thought about that for about 3 weeks and It changed my life. Really there is no wrong answer to that question because either way I am living, but at the same time I feel there is a wrong answer for me. Currently I am living to work and every time I say that I stop and say to myself, "Why the heck am I living to work?" It makes me a bit upset every time I think of it. There is so much more life to see than work, I don't want to just work. A while back my plan was to move back to Bellingham and finish the networking schooling that I had started my Junior year and then doing Photography classes if I have time. I love Photography, why would I put that second? So next fall I am going to give full-time photography a try. There are a lot of people that tell me I wont be able to make it like that and I understand that. It would be very hard to make a career out of photography but until I try it I will never know for sure whether or not I could do it. By this time you are tiered of reading and just know where I am going this fall, right? At the end of July or start of August I will be moving to Sandpoint, Idaho and living with my Grandma and Aunt. For 6 months I am just going to try photography. If I don't make it, so what? Maybe I will go back to school, or try something else. Maybe I could even get a part time job at Schweitzer Ski Resort? I am going to have lots of fun there.
Photography: Is the rumor true? Did Justin really start his own business? Yes he did! No, I don't have a business license (yet), but I will have to pay taxes on my income. Thats close enough for me! I've already made $40 (I know its not enough to live off of, but I am getting there). This weekend I will be taking pictures of a bike race on Whidbey Island. Its going to be a test drive to see how well I can do (single handedly). Wish me luck on that one!
A Lady Friend: Nope
So thats about it and I am a little tired of typing one handed so I think I will end it here!
