New readers to my blog: No, this blog isn't primarily about photos of me. It's just that I've had two photo deadlines (my mom's Christmas letters and Calum's Lego thing), so I decided to go ahead and post them here.

I'm quite finicky about portraits. It's a side effect of being the daughter and sister of professional photographers who don't mind a little photo-retouching here and there. My mom told me that I once steadfastly refused to have my picture taken by the school photographer. I had to have the best photographer in the world--my dad! =)

Check out yesterday's page for a self-portrait that almost manages to look okay.

I am _so_ looking forward to being finished with my enggpsych paper. Grumble, grumble. Humbling and annoying to think I've only written ~ 4160 words so far. I have no idea how the people who wrote the A+ papers he posted managed to write that much. C'mon, 26 pages, single-spaced? Okay, well, the 26 page single-spaced one was a bit fluffy in terms of language... But still. <mumble>

I am relatively happy with it now. There are a couple of paragraphs here and there that I still might want to write, but overall I won't be too annoyed with myself if I handed this in. It's been a good way to review the textbook, too...
