Long story short – the next two weeks I’ll be EXTREMELY BUSY, so I may not really post. Please don’t worry. As soon as the final exam is over, I’ll be back. I Promise!
Sorry!
Sorry for the lack of posts! I’ve been sans Internet this week with the power off at our university. They are doing work while people are gone for the festival. :). It’s back now so I’ll start posting again! Happy Lunar Festival!
Apologies
Hi Everyone!
Sorry to have been absent the last two weeks. Life has been a little crazy here in China with the end of the semester and everything. The final exam included a 10 minute interview one-on-one with the professor (me) to discuss their final papers. In Chinese student terms, this meant a 30-45 minute interview (gotta love overachievers). So I just interviewed 160+ students over two weeks at 30-45 minutes a pop. Plus, my students are all leaving seniors this semester, so they have been dropping by to say goodbye before they head off to their new jobs. 0_0 Suffice to say it’s been a little crazy.
But finals are over again, so posts will start up again next week!
Merry Belated Christmas and Happy New Year!

Moving to China
Sorry everyone! I’m in the process of moving to China at the end of this month, so everything is REALLY hectic. This unfortunately translates into the fact that posts for the next few weeks may be slightly more erratic than normal. I promise that I will smooth it all out as soon as possible!
Through the Picture Frame

This isn’t mine, it’s an interview with a Life photographer, but it captures the essence of what I want my photography to be. My pictures are aimed at capturing moments, memories, and love in tiny snippets to be preserved when the moments move on. Plus it’s sweet to see real love, and I wanted to share it 🙂
