The Move
I haven’t posted much recently, because I am in the process of moving to Copenhagen. Sorry. Things will hopefully change once I settle in.
Currently I am in Brussels visiting everyone. And for the first time in my life, I had an amazing Valentine’s Day. It started with landing in the city I love and rediscovering my old neighborhood (my hotel happens to be in the same, not very...

“No one built this country on their own. This nation is great because we built it together. This nation is great because we worked as a team. This nation is great because we get each other’s backs. And if we hold fast to that truth, in this moment of trial, there is no challenge too great; no…

If any of you photo freaks like me out there haven’t already checked this out…DON’T!!! I don’t want the extra competition. Think Tank Photo is giving away my wish list on steroids, and as much as I would like to see a tumblr buddy win it, I NEED it (read recent grad with aging photo equipment). But if you just can’t resist, I understand…

I had no idea that choosing to take German over Spanish or French in high school would actually change my entire life path. But I have my German teacher to credit for where I am today. My friends, my degree, my experiences, and my outlook on life. I would be a completely different person today if I had never met this man. He inspired me, taught me, and encouraged me in my teens, and continues to...

Just Dance 3 is the best (and most fun) workout- even better than Just Dance 2. I got it this morning, started playing this afternoon, and am now 3 hours in.
I’m gonna hurt tomorrow if I continue…but I can’t leave songs unplayed!!!

Fall Colors
A friend and I are driving the Peak to Peak highway in Colorado for fall color photography tomorrow…so expect some new, colorful pictures starting tomorrow night!

I can’t believe that even after seeing that heartbreaking picture, I still have feelings for this guy. I knew he was something special that first night I met him…damn.
But what then is capital punishment but the most premeditated of murders, to...

And....
…that makes 3. There must be something wrong with me. 3 guys have cheated on me. Is there a reason they can’t just break up with me? I mean, really?! 3?! Are there any respectful (and tall) guys out there anymore? I’m really not asking that much! The first one was hard enough… But this one hurts the most. I am completely heartbroken.
Anyone been to Copenhagen? I’ve never been, but may be moving there soon, so some advice and thoughts would be amazing!

Lessons from Pub Quiz
Things I learned tonight at my first Geeks Who Drink pub quiz (aside from all of the completely random knowledge in the questions…)
1. Cheaters never prosper…or at least not for very long. This group next to us ended up second overall after using their phones to look up answers. Then, in the parking lot as we were leaving, we noticed that they were standing around the car trying...

A transient hope.
For now all is once more lost.
A vat of pipe dreams.
