So I only have one class this semester, French. I go to school at 1:00 and come home at 2:30. I have Media Arts, too, but it's on my own time now. I'm getting an SLR soon, like in two weeks. It's a toss-up between a Canon Rebel, XT or XTi, dunno yet, or the Nikon D60, or the Olympus E-510 or E-410. I know the Nikon is the best out of the lot but it's also the most expensive. I might settle for one of the Olympus' because I can get a really good deal on it with two lenses so I have more options. I am also photographing a wedding in June. I've been making lots of money, so work's good. Gonna get a bunch of accessories for my new camera, too. Maybe a new external flash, a softscreen or softbox, and if I get the Olympus I can get a cable release, too. Lots of stuff to make the wedding photos better. In July I might be going home to England, probably just for a month or two. I might be going with my best friend, or we might just meet up there coz she might end up going earlier or later than me. It should be fun. My grad is soon, as well. I have my dress, it's red, and my shoes and my bag, which are black, and my mum is probably doing my hair, I'll probably get it braided. I completely cheaped out on grad to save for my SLR instead. 
That makes me a true photographer. 
Anyway I'll be going now... for another several months knowing me, lol.
Work has been good lately, though. I've been doing photography for the Vancouver Museum. I had a lot of work for them in August and September. I also still do work for the South Burnaby Neighbourhood House and of course freelancing. I earned some money doing some freelance portraits in the summer, actually. Check out my sexy new picture on the right there. I'm loving it. I also get more photos in October for graduation, me in the fancy robe and me with some of my hobbies or whatever... Anyway stuff's good I guess, still alive and kicking. Partied and got drunk a lot in the summer, too, just thought I'd add that. I just love vodka. I had my cousin over from Ireland as well, he's the same age as me, and we had a bit of a party one Friday night and I drank about half a bottle of straight 40% Polar Ice vodka. It was good. So I'll be going now, I must watch the CSI: Las Vegas season 8 premiere. That's the only show I turn the television on for... and don't forget about my wonderful 
Oh well, school's been back in for about five weeks, which means our first reporting period is coming up. I'm a straight A student, but I don't want a report card this term. I feel like I've done poorly, even though I have no idea where my grades are at. I've had very little work lately. My last job was really crappy. I barely got any good photos, and there were competative photographers present. I started to dislike work that day. I'm not going to pursue a career in photography anymore. I've decided I'll either be a translator, which was my plan from day one, or I'll be someone who works in schools with special needs children. That job appeals to me. I was going to be a doctor, I think I'd be good at that, but I'm too lazy to spend years on end at University. If all else fails, I'll work at Ikea all my life and maybe by the end of it I'll own a chain of Ikea stores... That would be fun... 
Seriously. Anyways, had work today, have work tomorrow, got work on the 29th. Fun, fun, fun. Oh! And I'm finally putting my ad up at the barn, so I'll hopefully get some paid work there soon! And I'm back to school on September 5th. Fun? Maybe. I have a photography course, and guess what I get to do all day in that class... take photos! 
I've got a nice
