Week in the Life - Getting Ready

This morning I was thinking about my Week in the Life project that I will embark upon for the second time. And I was realizing that I will be taking photos of myself at a high school and trying to figure out how to do that without looking like a total dork. And then I went to work. And was asked to go to New Orleans from Wednesday through Friday for a presentation. Next week. So there goes trying to be creative about photographing dorky stuff!

I am very excited about this trip. I like to travel (hate to fly, but that's ok) and I've never been to New Orleans, so I'm thrilled that I will be in a new place. And I love taking pictures of scenery, architecture, flowers, etc. so I know I am headed to a great location. Oh, and I love to shop.

I will be presenting on millennial generation students (and I technically am a millennial, so I like this stuff too) and will be networking with professionals from across the country. I never used to enjoy this, but it has grown on me. I think I am most flattered that my director would want me to do this, as I am her representative for this. I am honored.

And that takes me to the Week in the Life project. I'm still going to do this next week, but I am not sure if this will very accurately document a typical week in my life. I will only being doing my typical morning routine on Tuesday. The rest of the week will be very abnormal. But that is what makes the project what it is. My life gets crazy like this, things pop up and gears get changed. Plus I'm pretty sure I will have lovely photos for the week.

To get ready for the project itself, I will be gathering the following:
2 cameras



I carry a point and shoot with me daily everywhere I go and have a larger semi-SLR for getting the great shots.

Moleskine notebook to jot things down as they happen


I hope to use the travel/airport time to compile Week in the Life information and get a blog post ready for when I get back, at least to share the week.
