I'm no good at keeping a diary either.

Updates in point-form tonight cause it's different then my usual way of blogging

Uppers:
-Got into school for Photojournalism, fees paid and all. I start in Sept.
-Saw Xavier Rudd play live.
-Went to Jasper Photos here.
-Moved from Jasper ave to Whyte ave.
-New roommates are very cool.
-I'm apparently popular on Tumblr.


Downers:
-Got kicked out of my old apt, where I was living with someone I've known for 4 years.
-working too much and not making enough money.


So way more uppers then downers, in the pie chart of my life there's still lots of pie left to eat.

I'm working at a camera store, hell yeah discounts. This'll help with buying all the equipment I'm gonna need for school. But I'd be happier and be making more money if I was doing something outdoors. Que sera sera.

I love the mountains, I need to figure out how to make a living in the interior. Maybe after school I'll be able to find a paper that'll hire me to work for them, then after a couple years they promote me to a foreign correspondent position.

I'm very distraught about what happened during the G20 summit in Toronto, asides from the fact that I wasn't able to participate and document the protest, many of the reports I've read have reinforced my disgust with police, especially during times of crisis.

I really like Amy Miller, I think she does a great job and this story is disgusting. I shouldn't be surprised but I'll admit I was actually hoping that the msg we were getting from the politico class was true, despite knowing that the police had sound and water canons I was really hoping for....something better.
