Mid February?!
Filed Under (Chatter) by colin.ake on 15-02-2008
It’s almost mid-February (WHAT?!) and thought I’d drop in an update in my effort to be more… well… present on my own site. Little update is due on everything and a few projects that are in the mix.
School is going well - I feel like I have a handle on it and am making a more concerted effort than last semester. Test grades reflect that, so that’s good.
Glee Club is in full swing - we have a trip in April to NYC (Carnegie Hall, baby), and a trip to the UK in May. My responsibility is raising funds, organizing details, managing cashflow, ordering tickets, staying on top of the roster, and being the general go-to guy there. It’s a feat, as we’re taking 37 people to New York and 24 to the United Kingdom.
As far as photography goes - I’m mostly happy with the camera equipment I own, but I’m considering upgrading my bodies. I have two Canon 30Ds currently, and while they’re great prosumer bodies, I would love to replace even just one of them with a 1DMkIIN - a pro body with higher burst-mode frame rate and better overall mechanics. I just have to find around $1800-2000 to make that happen.
Purchased a season ticket to the Braves game with the BravesBlast crew - all in all we have eight season tickets in the front row of the Upper Deck. Jonathan bought four and Charles has two, and Lance is buying my second ticket off of me. I’m sure that will provide days of entertainment over the coming year, as well as be good for BravesBlast.
For Spring Break I’m heading down to Florida for spring training - going to try and attend as many spring training games as I can and collect some good data for BravesBlast. If you’re going to be in Florida, let’s meet up for one of the games. It’d be fun.
I’m off for a conference call and then working flight and hotel details out for NY. Have a great weekend.
