Such is Life

Wed Nov 18, 2009, 10:12 PM
  • Listening to: Coldplay
  • Reading: Facebook
  • Watching: the world
  • Playing: a little game called life
Oh the joy of looking for a job, such fun it is. And yet so hard to portray the sarcasm over text. I contacted one place that does video, and he said he'll give me a call if he ever needs an additional camera man, so that's helpful to know. I'm hoping to be the new unofficial Assistant Technical Coordinator for Norhtfield Public Schools, and my duties would be to keep the sound and lighting equipment in working order for the middle/high school. Which is basically the same thing I did while in high school, except now I can get paid for it. Nice. So hopefully that will pull through. I like money, and I'm kinda lacking in that department right now. Also applying for a bartender gig at the bowling alley in town. So if I get that, which would also be ideal cause the Assistant thing is only a part-time thing, I'd have a solid job and also get better at bowling, which I love. I am having an absolute ball with the new addition to my life, my Canon 20D and 28-70mm lens. Hopefully will be buying a 55-250mm Canon lens with image stabilizer for Christmas. I don't have nearly enough for an 'L' series lens yet, but at least I'll be able to zoom in a considerable amount, while still having a good picture. I want to get more into portrait work, but really don't know how to get started in that field, without having any experience. That's about all I got for ya. I hope everyone is doing well. And for all of you in the USA, I hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving coming up! Peace.

Thank you sooo much! My parents are both recovering alcoholics, so I think that is where I got my perspective on alcohol for :) I do get drunk, but I prefer to drink a cooler with my dinner than down vodka to throw up the next morning.. haha :D

Well I'm glad to hear that your folks are making amends in their ways. I will certainly check out those links and you work more in depth. For not, I've got to help prepare for our Thanksgiving. I'm not sure, for you living in Canada if you know what that is. Its a holiday for Americans to remember the things they are thankful for, and a long time ago when the early settlers sat down with the Native Americans for a feast in community with one another. Peace.
