Status: 2008
January 9, 2009
At the start of 2008 I mentioned that I had set some personal goals instead of resolutions. While doing the same goal-setting for 2009, I was sure I had accomplished at least two or three things on my 2008 list of goals, but couldn't really remember what was on that list. Which wasn't a good sign.
But I pulled out my old notebook and was very pleased to discover that I had accomplished every single one of them. Want to see what they were?
- learn off-camera lighting: frankly, I've made off-camera lighting my bitch
- use Manual mode on my camera more: only time I'm not in Manual anymore is when I'm moving around a lot with my camera and my brain is focusing on other things
- print out some of my shots to hang on the wall, treat it like real art: I participated in three different gallery openings, and have a few shots hanging at home and at work
- take a university class or two, go "back to school": I got a 95% in my French class during Fall semester
- get up new blog layout: the pink and green isn't really new any more, but I still like it
Nothing too big, nothing unattainable, but each one meant a lot to me.
Some of these took me many months to tackle, and some of these still need some work (like hanging my photography on the wall), but still. I'm very proud that I accomplished each and every one of these.
