Weekly Wishes

-----------------------------------------------

1. Sign up for Beyond the Wanderlust WPPI Shoot Out. 

    I've been meaning, for so so long, to get into a workshop or shoot out this year and I finally made a   

    deposit on one coming here to Las Vegas! So excited!

2. Build a new photography website. 

    I did this yesterday! It's about time I got a professional website for my business! I really love it and 

    I'm still debating on paying for the domain name since it's a pretty long url. Don't really have the 

    extra cash right now though. Check it out!

3. Start studying for math placement test. 

    This is the very last class I need to take ever to graduate college. Unfortunately my SATs expired, I 

    haven't taken a math class in over 10 years, and I'm terrible at math. So apparently I have to take a 

    placement test to get into the math class I need. It's really stupid but as my Capstone Course class for 

    this semester doesn't start till April and it's only 3 weeks long… There's no excuse not to get this over 

    and done with. So I need to start studying.

4. Sign back up for riding lessons. 

    My trainer wants me back and I think I'm ready to get back in the saddle again now that things have  

    calmed down a bit.

5. Send in application for summer internship for Wolf Hollow Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. 

    Put in the mail today! Fingers crossed!

6. Study Italian. 

    I bought some Italian books a few months ago and was determined to learn the language. They've 

    been sitting on my desk collecting dust when things went haywire and it's time to put my mind to

    it again.

7. Stick with Resolutions. 

     My resolutions this year besides the usual going back to the gym and eating better are to be more 

     independent and self-sufficient. This includes doing more things on my own without always 

     needing a friend or significant other around. Getting my shit together including a part-time

     job since photography isn't finacially stable yet and I'm always broke which will also 

     hopefully lead to me finally being able to move out on my own. 27 and stuck with my

    grandparents.. Not that I mind it really because I love them but still.. I'm almost 30. It's not

    cute. Also to travel more and I'm already well on my way with that! Hawaii in a few months

    for my Aunt's wedding and London in the fall!

This weeks wishes photo was taken during my snow day while following one of my resolutions of doing more stuff on my own and being more comfortable being by myself. You can see more photos from the day here.
