Day 10 of the New Era
Ok, that’s it… GREs done. Didn’t do as well as I hoped, but I’m trying to tell myself that that’s to be expected since I didn’t study for them and I’ve been out of school for 14 years. But I’m trying to stay optimistic.
Grad school app submitted. Not happy with that either. My grades we’re the best back when I was younger, but there’s not exactly anything I can do about that now. In any case, it’s finished. Out of my hands. Time for some beer!

Day 8 of the New Era
Fucking Tim Tebow!
And I’m out of Breaking Bad episodes to watch on Netflix until whenever Season 4 is up. What the fuck am I supposed to do with my Sundays now?
Ok, here’s my #365Days pic from yesterday, explaining some of the stress I’ve been dealing with lately. http://t.co/TFvqiygG
Day 7 of the New Era
I just didn’t feel like stressing and stuff for today’s picture. So instead I decided to do kind of a concept piece. It’s the future you see.
Where’s my flying car?
Day 6 of the New Era
Ok, things are starting to look a little better. Let me explain some of the stress. Basically, I’m losing my job at the end of the month. I’m a contractor, and I’ve kind of known it was coming but thought I’d have a little longer. Nope, guess not.
In any case, I have another gig lined up to start the next week. Still need to sign the contract, but barring something really out of the ordinary, I’m fine there. But that job is only going to be 1-2 months, and after that I have nothing lined up.
But I also decided that I wanted to go to grad school. Actually, I decided that a long, long time ago. But when I found out I was losing this job, I decided that I want to try to go this fall. So now, instead of taking months to a year to get all my ducks in a row for the application, I am reducing the whole process to 7 days. I take the GREs on Tuesday. I now have all reference letters farmed out. So all I have left is finishing my application and finishing my writing sample.
Basically, I’m cramming for everything, just like a real student. Hopefully if I can get in, I can get away from that practice.
Day 4 of the New Era
Last time I did this project, I used to carry my camera around with me everywhere I went, just in case I had a really good shot opportunity. But I haven’t been doing that in quite a while. So now when I see something like a pretty sunset out my window at work, I have to use my iphone to capture it. Turns out, it’s not that bad. Yay technology.
Btw, this was completely captured and edited on the iPhone 4s.
Day 3. Decisions decisions decisions… #365Days http://t.co/LD7pqvXV http://t.co/E20mBKYE
Day 3 of the New Era
Remember when I said that this year was going to be about making difficult decisions and changes in my life. Well, time to start. Really, this isn’t as bad as it looks.
I hope.
Day 2 of the New Era
So, I was wondering if I had a day 2 in me. I had insomnia last night. (pretty common for me). I was tired, so I tried to go to sleep at 12:30. It didn’t go so well. I was up til 4:30. I’ve been doing a lot of reconsidering my life options lately. Details I don’t particularly want to go into publicly jus yet. In any case, basically I came up with nothing… I simply managed to not sleep and get myself nice and tired. Which means I woke up tired. Which means I didn’t really have much creativity in me. So I was thinking, huh… this is going to be pretty lame right from the start.
But luckily, it didn’t so much matter so much. Its snowing pretty hard for the first time this winter. The bad news is that’s going to mean shoveling. The good news, well, it gave me something representative of my day. Old man winter it is.
Sometimes it’s nice when you don’t have to actually think about anything. Here’s to being able to come up with a day 3.
Day 1 of the New Era Once upon a time, I saw a photo by a man named Stephen Poff who was attempting to take a self-portrait every day for an entire year. It inspired me to do the same. Mostly, I just loved the challenge of it. Stephen had admitted that he’d even missed…

Day 1460 of 365 4 lyf. Went up to West End Overlook to take pics of the city with my iPhone for my new project. I haven’t been up there in a while and the last time I was, it was daytime. I forgot how beautiful the view was at night. The final pic of…
Day 1459 of 365 4 lyf. It’s been a long time since I did a lazy body macro. Well, not anymore. 365 days
