I'm pondering attempting a photographic 365 project. I ordered an external flash this past week and will need a few things to try it out. A 365 project would require me to take a different photo documenting each day for a year.
Why am I contemplating doing this? I am very unhappy and unsatisfied with my life. Today was one of the final straws. I switched out my winter clothes for my summer clothes. Seeing as it was in the 90s this weekend, I had to pull on some shorts. Low and behold, my inactive lifestyle has finally caught up with me. I officially cannot fit into my favorite shorts. I fit nicely into tanks that used to be roomy.
I've said before that 2009 was the year for change. Maybe this is where I start while waiting for everything else to fall into place.
This weekend was ridiculously hot so I tried to spend as much time inside as possible. Low and behold, I ended up on the couch. This needs to stop. It was nice when we first got here - take a few weekends to just veg. But it has become a habit - one I've never really enjoyed.
Doing a 360 project will give me accountability so maybe I'd actually do things I don't enjoy - like going to the gym or walking in 90-100ºF weather.
So keep your eyes open. Day 1/365 should be up within the next 7 days. It would be cool to actually pull this off.
