An Update of my Life.

I thought I would document my life at this moment because we are indeed in a time of hardship. The Union is broke, California is BROKE, and things are not looking very bright in the state school system.

I need to focus more than ever on some serious photography and the business that surrounds it. My 365 day thing is "fun" but I really need to actually take some time and make more than snapshots. I'm going to start to build portfolio's around things that I love (biking, climbing, portraiture, and high-fashion photos) I know what a mix right? Because who knows what's going to happen coming in the next couple of years. I got into Cal Poly and I'm considering transferring but I'm not sure that's the right choice. I applied to two universities in Italy (Florence and Torrino) and if I get in there I'm for sure going. (Get the hell out of California while the gettin is good).

I use to make fun of kids that went to private schools, "a waste a money" I use to say. But now that the shit has officially hit the fan, I wish that I went to one. They probably have a better ratio of student to teachers, because right now East Bay fired all the professors that weren't tenured. To give you a better idea of what that looks like, we have 400 communications majors at my school and now they have three teachers. Yeah.

So its time to put all of my effort into learning outside the school system in order to hit the ground running in this industry. I've already contacted several pro photographers to assist for them, nothing too promising yet, but hopefully soon.
