The intense packing has begun. I have less than 5 days to pack up my small apartment for the relatively short move to Fresno, California. Why would I move to Fresno from Monterey, you might ask? It could be stupidity, but…
Well, I grew up in Fresno, and it’s very familiar to me. I am commencing a full-blown business start-up and I know that I will need the familiar surroundings as well as friends and family support to really get my business off the ground. Also, I have to move out of the student housing I am in now because I am no longer a student! Yippee! So it’s really a combination of moving forward and moving back at the same time. A couple months ago, I decided that my passion for Photography as something I truly love to do should be more than just a hobby. My mother always said, “Do what you love, and eventually the money will come.” This is somewhat of a driving force for me because I am terrified of failing. I have failed at so many things before, and just hate disappointing myself. I am really going out on a limb to start my business, and hopefully I will succeed at what I love. I’m not expecting to become a millionaire, I just want to be able to live life, and enjoy it along the way. I mean, isn’t that the American Dream?
As soon as we started packing up boxes, Steven (pictured below on my shoulder), got concerned. Not only do kitties love boxes, they don’t like moving… Steven has always been a bit of a baby, and when he gets nervous, he likes to be close to me. Last night while I was working on the photo editing, he jumped up on my shoulders to see what I was up to. He’s so funny!
Forgive the grainy image, this was taken on my built-in isight camera on my macbook!
