028.
It has been a while since I've written. A lot has been going on I suppose. I didn't really do a lot over the winter break besides spend a lot of time on my own and working. This trend seems to have continued into the new semester - just add classes and my internship to it. To be honest I feel like Pluto, or a deserted island - if that makes any sense.

My internship started on the 16th. The first event I photographed was a Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday Celebration. It was a lot of fun. Then I photographed a small exhibit in our school's library. Yesterday I went to Winterfest at The Urban Ecology Center on the south side Milwaukee. I walked around, took pictures of the activities going on, and was introduced to the director of the place. I talked with a few other people too. I've been really enjoying my internship. I'm so grateful for it. It keeps me extra busy.
I miss people being around though. I love having a really awesome day, but then I hate coming home and having no one to share it with. It's kind of personal, but to be honest, sometimes I don't even feel like turning on the lights when I come home at night. I just feel like going straight to bed.
I guess it's good to say though that I'm happy with where I am personally. My classes already look like fun. It should be a good final semester. I'm not too excited for my senior show as of right now. I haven't been that into my thesis but I'm feeling something coming on that's going to push me to further it. Right now I'm just really excited about my internship and journalism classes. I think I'd really like to pursue photojournalism as my career.
So... hopefully this lonely feeling will subside. I could really use friends though to cheer me up. That's not too much to ask for with out sounding like I'm begging for attention, right?

027.
Have you ever just felt so happy that you've overcome a rough patch in life and you feel like crying because you made it? I kind of feel like that today. I think I forgot how good it feels to be content with myself. I don't have anything tying me down right now. Instead I have things I need to do and work towards that are going to further me in my own success.
What I have to look forward to in 2011:
What I have to look forward to in 2011:
- Internship at ThirdCoast Digest
- Working on my senior thesis/photography
- Continuing my 365 pictures
- Graduation & Senior Show in May
- Either moving back home, moving to a new location, or finding my own place in Milwaukee (that's if I get a job here right away after I graduate)
- Tons of job applications
- New job?
- Quitting CapTel
- Summer traveling, if I can afford it and have someone to go with
- Residencies?
That's all I can think of for now. I'm spending the day/night with my cousin Elisabeth. Should be fun!
