happy happy happy!

'Celebrate Diversity'


I am happy! It feels amazing to have an uncontrollable smile, sense of adventure and positive outlook on life. I spent the weekend going with the flow and having the time of my life in the city (San Fransisco of course). I was able to meet up with my long lost roommate Britney and her family in china town. We then went to Lombard Street. It was strange feeling like a tourist in a city that is so close to where I live. I had never been to either place and was still able to navigate my way to them. I can only imagine how crazy Europe is going to be. I promised myself that I won't experience the whole four months through a camera lens. I am going to take time to indulge in the surrounding and immerse my self fully into every culture I visit. I have a don't say 'no' attitude, an open heart and mind, and a high tolerance for ambiguity. oh yeah.... and tomorrow I am jumping out of a plane!...

Rocking out to Radiohead


I'm going to a concert in Golden Gate Park tomorrow. Radiohead is headlining with Beck. Readiohead is my new addiction. I could swim in their music all day and night. Listening to them makes me feel like I am in another world. I'm thrilled to spend the whole day in the city. I haven't decided if I'm going to bring my camera or not. If i do bring it I can only hope to catch a close up opportunity like this photo that I took at a Something Corporate Concert. I heart you Andrew McMahon.... and may you heal from lymphatic leukemia in peace.

Art in the Park



Oh little Martinez how I love you.... I went to Art in the Park the other day and only took a few photos. When I used to go when I was younger the market seemed so much larger. I expected there to be more photo opps. Oh well. The chicken, artichoke hearts and lemonade were delicious. I hate bumping into people I used to know.. usually... It is awkward and I never know what to say.
