Just another update

So yet another work week ends for me. Sometimes its fun to have college just three days a week. Provided you don't get bored the remaining four days.

Have a lot of stuff to do this week too, and hopefully something will get checked off my "to-do" list this time. To sum it up, gotta finish making a rough 3d model of the character, try learning actionscript for flash, prepare the script for my documentary, upload photos on stock sites, and miscellaneous stuff that I can't recall right now.


Before I forget, there is a question that's been nagging me...something I must ask the readers. See, its nearing the end of the month now....which will mark the end of blogging once a day, everyday for the past two months. The question is...should I continue blogging on a daily basis for August too or cut back a little?
Because, lets face it...there are days when I have nothing to talk about and I end up using a "Hershey says" as an escape route...or shameless post email forwards. Or worse, give you "updates" :P

But I am up for the task for yet another month, if the readers don't mind. Do let me know.

Apart from that, I deleted Dragonica. Uninstalled it. Certain games aren't meant to be played when you are running a tight schedule. I rather finish my work first.

I have also realized, yet again, just how lucky I am to have my girl. If it weren't for her, I would have missed today's class too. Overslept today also. Barely managed to reach college. I sort of had to forfeit bathing, and just grabbed a shirt and jeans, wore them, sprayed myself heavily with deo and ran. Oh stop "ewww"ing. This isn't the first time I have been through this.
Besides, the reason why I didn't just ignore her wake up messages and calls is because if I bunk more than 2 lectures, I fail instantly. Stupid foreign student rules.

Anyway, I am really realllllly thankful to have a girl who keeps a note of my timetable even though she stays 2 and a half hours before my timezone.
I know you are reading this sweetie, thanks for being there. I appreciate it.


In other news, I finally took a closer look at the pictures of the fireworks I shot at the National Day Parade rehearsal. Considering this is the first time I captured firework shots, am really impressed with myself. The pics I am seeing...they represent nothing as to what I saw with my own eyes. Slow shutter speeds really capture unique light trails.

The fireworks reminded me of small galaxies.
Will be uploading the pictures on facebook and flickr shortly.


Until then, see ya people.
And don't forget to leave your thoughts on whether I should continue writing on a daily basis for another month or give it a rest already.

7 humans were mesmerized and left their thoughts:

Well, since I'm fairly new in here, and didn't even know you and Shruti were on a marathon (?) I guess my opinion doesn't really count. I love both your blogs and will continue to keep on checkin' in regardless. Shit. I know that didn't help. I don't care how often, I just care that you do, truth be told!

My girl is a gooood alarm :) Don't need any other alarm :P


perx
sorry, not going to be able to continue..will keep it to 3 posts a week at least.

Jules,
nicely said. Writing is more important than the frequency...provided its not too long of course.

mama,
I doubt any parent would be able to blog on a daily basis. :) You are posting at a pretty good frequency...and entertaining posts too :)

lookin @ the comments..i see u've decided that u aren't goin to force urself to post everyday...well..just blog when u want to and feel like!

me has so many things to blog abt..but am being so lazzzy! :(

n then here is a link that i think mite interest u : http://www.smashingapps.com/2009/07/27/23-breathtaking-moments-and-ideas-captured-by-photographers.html

These days photography is more abt playing with photoshop rather than actually clicking the pics..wat do ya think?

Hershey Desai said...

pavi,
yea, its easier to write stuff when there is a topic worth writing about...
Thanks for the link, lovely pics

And of course its not about photoshop.
photoshop is just editing. Its as good as developing film photos in a studio.
If the picture is just shot bad, can't clean it up. Photoshop is usually used to just enhance colors and saturation, and correct minor flaws.

Though photomanipulation is a whole new topic.
