The day was a short one but it seems like it was packed with activity. Woke late, followed my mom out to get the neice, did some reading at the library, went to check out uncle buck’s eye microscope thing to try and make a mount for a camera, went to ikea and did some photoshopping, came home to do the rest! Now I’m going to bed and waking up abit earlier tomorrow so I end up sleep earlier tomorrow night.

I’ve just had the good idea of dividing my day’s tasks into 3. Morning, afternoon and evening. I stuck 3 “post-its” on my desktop and labelled them accordingly and put in tasks I intend to do during those hours. Well, it seems to be quite motivating and organized. I’ll do a physical one on my wall perhaps next time. Didn’t touch my FYP today, so dead. On the other hand I managed to take a picture or two with the camera and strobes. I kinda like it. I’m liking the idea of doing studio photography. Shall try with the Dog and perhaps hannah when I get my shoot thru umbrella and other accessories. Make a softbox when I’m free too (which doesn’t seem to be any time soon).
That’s all for now. Looking forward to another day tomorrow! Many ponderings about how relationships shift and change, about discipleship and how it almost never happens under that name in our culture.

Decided that Dustin’s black square format was nice to follow so I’ll do that for now. Todays photo was a simple 2 naked light setup. One on the flowers, one facing the ceiling to light the room. I try to (as often as I can) make the first one of anything for the gf.

Spent last night in church watching a show then playing games (actually I skipped this) then staying over for about 3 hours worth of sleep before I arrived at school. Nothing much to shout about. Going back was more interesting. I met up with the buyer of my Hi-matic F and then browsed around Pageone before heading over to Nikon service center to see if they can repair my Nikon 28Ti. Well, they couldn’t for lack of parts. So I guess I’ll have to tolerate the possessed Autofocus dial spinning around for no reason.

Mark 6:31 seems to speak of getting rest from busy service but its probably really just Jesus messing with the disciples knowing everyone would follow them anyway and disturb them. Well, its either one or the other.. but both ways the final point was sufficiency in Christ when he asked them to provide food for the multitude.
Anyway to put the post completely backwards (as I tend to make a statement forgetting that people cannot read my mind) I was thinking of verses in the bible that told of solitude and quietness and remembered the St Andrew’s cathedral had this verse for its cafe like place.. hmm.. Shall look around abit more later perhaps.

Wah, while blasting my way through this book I realised alot of awesome passages come from here. Isaiah 43:1-2 is one of them. Speed reading is enjoyable.. cos instead of details, you see a BIG picture.. cos even when something is hard to understand, seeing it as a small part of a big chunk helps quite abit. Certainly a nice change!
