Today's first:
A member of staff at HMV actually complimented my CD purchases. They are as follows:
Belle & Seb- Dear Catastrophe Waitress (i'm way behind on my B&S)
Broken Social Scene- S/T
Sigur Ros- ()
Sleater-Kinney- The Woods
Antony & The Johnsons- I Am A Bird Now
... my first CD purchases this year. Note that none of them are actually from this year....

Yeah!!
One nice, productive day.
Sold a camera on eBay for a profit. I bought it from a shop last year with the intention of selling it to make a few quid.
Convinced my local Jessops manager to give me a refund on another camera. It had been stolen from a university (luckily I am still in contact with the lecturers else I wouldn't have...

There's nothing like spending a few grand of someone elses' money to make you reprioritize your life- that is, I think i've had my fill of cameras for a while. My new concentration is part one of my NY resolution- getting a life. Part two, getting a real job, comes later. Part three, visiting strip clubs, could well be linked to part one... we shall...

Here in the big city, I rarely take a good look at the sky. Too many tall buildings, too much pollution, but, worst of all, too much rushing around.

I like foulmouthed!
Okay, I don't think i'm going to get an interview. It's been three weeks and i've heard nothing. I'm philosophical about it, though... and right now my job doesn't seem so bad.
Camera tally is up to seven
Right now I need to rein in my spending. F'real.
Edit: camera count up to eight. Not even funny any more. Ebay here I come!

Thinking about the future is making my head ache.

Thinking about the future doesn't guarantee things the way it should.

your thinking too far ahead
"You have... ZERO... new messages"
It's funny because it's true.
I decide that, for a few days, I can live without SG- I stepp'd out into the big wide world for a couple of days, drinking in the... erm, drink, and watching copious Simpsons and Star Wars DVDs, and log back on to see that obviously everyone else has been doing the same.
No, the...

My "insider" at the photo studio told me I might get a call on Friday or Saturday. Tuesday has just gone, and I have not turned my phone off for all that time. I have a horrible feeling i've been passed over. I think perhaps I set myself up to be shot down, as I was dead excited about leaving Jacobs...

You'll find something. I know you will.
Things are looking good on the job front- my "insider" at the studio thinks i'm good for an interview, so I guess it's all down to me.
*panics*
My camera tally has rocketed- i've now got six, two in the last two days. I really must get round to selling some.

I have applied for a new job. A friend of mine has just joined a photography studio, and apparently they have another photographer position opening and he's put a word in for me. I'm nervous as shit- this is only the fifth job i've applied for, and if I get an interview it will be only my second. I actually want this job.

If I knew any British girls, I'd point them with your way. I bet you'd be a good boyfriend.

nice suit, really suits you. 
I'm getting a definite sense that i'm being pushed. My job is getting harder and harder to stomach- figuratively and literally, I have greater responsibility these days and no increase in pay; I am bringing in large sales to the shop via old contacts that i'm recieving little extra recognition for. Now the shop smells repugnant, as the building work above seems to have caused...

I love KB, too. She's almost flawless. I liked the stuff in your work folder, but I'm honestly just a sucker for black and white photography. I would love to see some b&w wedding shots that you've done.
So I'm reading the newest Suze Orman book, which is fin. advice written for younger people, and she says that you should put up with not recieving too much recognition or money right, because its about networking and finding opportunities and banking on the fact that you're young. Its not the most soothing advice, but maybe things will pay off for you in the end.
and I hate ruts. I hope yours ends soon.

Thanks for the feedback
But since you didn't like it, I would recommend you don't go see UltraViolet - it's supposed to suck even more. Like suck most majorly. Like amazingly so. It might come out in two months or so - it has Milla Jovavich in it and I read the plot synopsis and wow, it's bad even on paper.
