The paper had no assignments for us today, so Paul and I trolled Annapolis for fun things happening. Despite a BEAUTIFUL fall day, very few people were outside for us to stalk. Rather, everybody and their mother attended the US Sailboat show this weekend and thus all of America descended […]

Internship: Day Five
Obligatory blog post after interning… I think I’m getting the hang of things. Still haven’t gone out on my own yet, but that’s mainly because I haven’t had the time. Working six days a week at the castle (in the dark, with broken computers), interning Sundays, class Tuesday/Thursday, and trying […]
Juxtaposition
In case anyone doubted how amazing I am, please have a photo story. Keep in mind that I do not actually have enough time on my hands to do this for fun; the assignment is for Digital Photography. I really like the first two best, but it takes all of […]
Day Four and More
Holy crap life moves fast. Suddenly I’m working (basically) 9-5 seven days a week. Six weeks ago I had a job that made me physically ill, a boyfriend who bothered me for reasons I couldn’t pin-point, and began thinking that I would never break into the world of journalism. Now […]
Internship: Day Three
Quaker meetings and dog shows. It makes a much better song title than a day at work. The dog show wasn’t a real dog show, it was a practice dog show for people who want to go to real dog shows. I went out with Colleen again and we met […]
<3 Annapolis
Sarah and I ventured downtown after I got home from work, only to find Paint Annapolis almost over, and both of us busy during their exhibition tomorrow. As an alternative, I followed her around. We sat and admired the ducks (and boats) together. And I did some wandering of my […]
Internship: Day Two
Although less thrilling than last Sunday, today was still a blast. This time I followed Colleen (gasp, a girl!) to a local art gallery and the county fair. The painters we met plugged Paint Annapolis, which Sarah and I were planning on attending anyway. They do painting competitions and just […]
Classes Ensue
Digital Photography went from a shooting course with one of my favorite professors to electronic media with a brand new professor. Our first assignment is to shoot 100 photos and from them make a composite that represents our vision of the future. Sigh. But here are some of my favorites.
Internship: Day One
Sunday began my internship at The Capital. I leeched off of the staff photojournalist normally assigned for the day, Josh, and we attacked a Catholic mass & picnic, old lady tea & concert, and a fish fry. Really I should have posted this yesterday for the full effect of my […]
I LOVE THIS PLACE
Me, to Bob: “I’ll drop by tomorrow at 3. I just need you to read over my goal sheet (they’re really simple goals, I promise) and sign that we can achieve them. The other is a packet saying basically I will actually be doing work and not picking up your dry cleaning that just needs one signature. Also, Brian asked me to set up a shrine for him somewhere near his old desk. I said that probably wasn’t going to happen.” Bob, to me: “OK, great. Say, on your way in, would you mind stopping by Admiral Cleaners on Taylor Ave and…….. (Just a joke, I swear). –BobG.” Also, I love four-hour computer classes that are basically self-study. Not really, but I do appreciate the internet. Hopefully this will give me enough time throughout the semester to set up a real professional site, […]
