A Busy Life

My life has suddenly been upgraded, and now includes 100% more business! Here’s a taste of the things that now take up my schedule:

  • Mafia Murder Mystery on Thursday, October 26, 2006
  • Brand New concert on Wednesday, November 1, 2006
  • Trip to South Korea from Wednesday, December 13, 2006 to Wenesday, December 27, 2006

Each of these events has come into my life so suddenly that I am quite refreshed by it. I must say, I am quite excited for each of them and I hope that they are all what I hope for them to be.

Also, today I received an email from JPG Magazine about two photographs I submitted to their seventh issue. If you aren’t familiar with the process of photo selection at JPG here is a quick rundown:

  • Photographs are uploaded to a theme, such as self-portrait or hometown
  • Users vote on the uploaded photos, picking the ones they think most suited for that theme
  • The editors of JPG then make the final decisions on the photographs, choosing the ones they enjoy most
  • The photographers whose photos appear in the magazine get a free subscription for one year and $100

The first photograph I submitted to the self-portrait category, and I must admit that it was not the best photograph to submit. Naturally, the photo did not receive enough votes to make it into the magazine. The second photo, however, is one of my favourites of all the ones that I have taken. I submitted it to the theme “hometown”. I guess that people thought it was fitting, as it is going to be in the next issue. If you want to check it out, the issue will be hitting stands in mid-November. The photograph is entitled “Power”.
