I like it, because it's the same line as the camera I used to have

A Photo Project

61. When I was in high school, I always had to have four pockets for my four objects of necessity: my wallet, my keys, my cell phone, and my camera. Then I upgraded cameras in 2003 to a camera that couldn’t fit in my pocket and I stopped taking pictures. Also, it broke and I didn’t have the $400 to buy another one.

I have several brilliant ideas on what to write about today, but I’m sort of saving them for Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday, because the Google says that those are the days most people read the blog.

So what does one write about when they fully expect only 70 percent of their usual freaders to see it?

That’s the question.

And here’s the answer: I have a new project. For those of you not in the know, last year I calculated hugs. (I hugged 163 people by the end of the year). Last birthday I started counting who hugged me when. (Results here.) Before that, I’ve done far less ambitious and scientific projects.

This year, starting on my birthday, May 29th, I will take ONE (1) photograph every day for one full year. This photograph can be a picture of myself, of my desk, of other people, an illustrative photo of what went on in the day, or a photo of a drawing or of something else. I’ll save them all in my computer and eventually upload them all into a special section of this site. The idea is that this will remind me of what I did at various times in my life and serve as a sort of lame-o diary.

But first! I must buy a camera from the “e” bay.

I thought about doing a project similar to these, but decided not to. Or maybe I will. Who knows:


*sigh* The last one is so dreamy.

Update: This is the Camera I just bought:

  1. What a great idea! Good luck with it! 🙂

    I can’t even update my photoblog everyday, which is what I was going to do. Yeah, that lasted for about a week.

    What kind of camera are you looking to buy? If you just want anything, I’ll totally sell you mine because I want to upgrade. But if you are looking for something new and fancy, I hope you find a good one. 🙂
