Horoscope
So today at work one of my coworkers was reading our horoscopes. Mine was something about a secret coming out and travel. Don't know what the secret thing is all about. I have many secrets, but none that I think are in danger of coming to light (and even if they did, they're just secrets because I don't feel like sharing, not because sharing will do me any harm.) And the travel thing. I had no current plans to travel. Plenty of travel plans in December. December is pretty much shaping up to be mostly travel. But I was like, okay, whatever.
I don't hold too much belief in horoscopes. Especially as lately mine have been all about romance and new loves coming into my life. Um, yeah, whatever. But every once and a while, they just kind of make me go "hmmm...."
Today in class we were talking about our final project. Somebody mentioned riding the local bus or going to Chicago and riding the El, and photographing all the people there. I thought, hey, I could ride the train and take pictures of all the...um, interesting...people, who ride the train.
The other night when we were waiting at the train station with my brother, I was kind of wishing I had broght my camera. There are so many different kinds of people who ride the train. And so, I'm thinking I can go up to Union Station in Chicago, take some pictures of the people in the train station, take pictures of passengers on the train, pictures of the train personnel, all sorts of things. I don't particularly like shooting people, but it should be a fairly easy way to get 15-20 prints in a month. I have to check it out with my connection at Amtrak, see if I can get the okay to do that (and a free trip). But it'd also be nice because I could feasibly shoot all the rolls in one weekend, but if needed, could go back and get more. (It's nice to have family connections.)
It hit me when I walked to my car, my weekend could involve some travel. Kind of spooky how that ended up. Sometimes those horoscopes are right on.
The bad thing that happened in class today, figured out that I have to be out of town for work the night of the final critique. Now, I know, I generally don't like critique nights as I usually walk away feeling depressed, but I would really like to be there for the final one and see everyone'd final projects. But instead I have to go to some stupid work thing that I don't even want to go to. :(
Oh well. C'est la vie.
