new opportunites

So...
For those who don't know I have officially decided to move to Austin. Hurrah!! However I will not be leaving until January. Which will give my husband a little time to wrap his mind around the whole idea. I am very very excited. My first big move...ya know that isn't related to school or internship. I'll actually have to apartment hunt. Then furnish said apartment. take care of utility connections. Search for a church. I'll be adult. How cool is that???
Second I have decided to try to build up my portfolio. I'm not much of a self-motivator so this is going to be difficult for me. I've gotten in touch with the local community theatre and the editor of a small weekly newspaper here in town who says he'll be more than happy to to publish my photos. They are flexible and are willing to publish more creative photos not usual in regular newspaper. Course I will actually have to just photograph whatever and give it to him. Not so much assignment, and there's no pay. But it will hopefully help me to get off my butt and get back into photographing. He even said covering the theatre would be a great help to him, and since that's what I love to do... So hopefully that will work out for me...in a rush now, so that's all for the time being. I'll try to keep ya posted.
