about this project...

This whole thing started when I decided to do a 365 project in January of 2011 (one photo a day for a year). But then my camera broke. And that's kind of funny because it had finally occurred to me that you can't plan life. So I stopped seeking out photos to take and started living a little more. And I got back into volleyball, and I planned a trip to Tuscany and I took an Italian class. And I reconnected with old friends, made some new ones, jumped out of a plane, decided to play softball for the summer and discovered that I like to drink tequila and, hell, I even moved into Manhattan! And then the time was right so I bought a NEW camera to take some new photos with, and I'll share them with you here. So, welcome to my non-project. Or, as I like to call it, life.

BROKEN CAMERA?!

:(

Well, this is somewhat inconvenient.  I'm going to have to play catch up, I suppose.  I guess I can start posting other photos I've taken this year in the interim until I get this situation under control, but I clearly have missed a few days (and will miss a few more) of photos.  Unless of course someone would like to donate a camera to my project... anyone??  Haha, yeah....

So the problem is that I'm getting a lens error and I can't turn my camera on.  Went to a repair shop today, and it seems canon doesn't make any replacement parts for the model I have.  For around $160 they will replace my camera.  I paid around $300 for this camera, and they want me to pay another $160 for a replacement?  Can we say markup?!  Mothereffers!  I haven't even had it for 6 months!  Canon is making me very sad right now.  I'm going to call them this week to see if they will replace a camera with no receipt... ugh... not looking good...

So sad...

Italians would never drink a beer that came from an elephant tap with his trunk down!

Monitor Street graffiti in Greenpoint.. and that's my mom & dad in the shot also.  Went for a walk after an Arthur Ave Ravioli dinner at my place with my sister and parents.

My Tiffany Knot ring.  Because at 11:45 PM I had a headache and no photo for the day.

Welll, so this was taken on my iPhone in a dark wine bar.  Oops.  Ardecia Wine Bar.  Out for some wine with with Ruiz for the night.  Yes, there were only two of us, yet there are three glasses of wine on the bar.  I can't imagine how that would happen, especially since Ruiz wasn't even there yet when I took this photo.  Hmmm.
