Maybe it’s all the creative writing I’m doing lately for my online course but… I’m creative-writed out. Which is unfortunate. Because really, I took this creative writing course to become a better writer. Turns out, all I’m getting better at is staring at my macbook pro screen at my corner table in starbucks, tapping my fingers against my forehead, asking the barista for more hot water to fill up my depleting mug of green tea and sending angry venting texts to my mother that includes lots of exclamation marks and capitals: “I don’t freakin’ want to write a poem about a piece of FRUITTTTTT!!!!!!!!!”

So, I can be a little dramatic sometimes. I’m halfway through this course and praying that we’ll soon be wrapping up this poetry unit so I can exercise my writing brain in a different genre. If my next assignment is writing a haiku about a green leafy vegetable, I may chuck my keyboard out the window and go back to my picture-taking. ;)

On a different note, David Jay announced the winners ShowIt contests! I won the Design of the Year for 2009–so incredibly honoured! Honestly, there were a few sites nominated that I thought were just ridiculously beautiful: so… safe to say I’m thankful for your votes.

Here’s a sneak peek from a wedding I second-shot last Friday with Michele M. Waite:: such a cute couple!
