I just took this today on the way to Taco Bell. I think i'm a pretty good photographer. If you look really hard, you can see the dollar sign.



I'm gone for the weekend. Have a good time, everyone.

p.s. we won! now it's time for shim yuk gang aka the round of 16.

My digital camera finally arrived. It's a Canon Elph Powershot 330. Works great.

Here's how I look in a dusty mirror:

Oh yeah, my cover story for KoreAm came out yesterday. here's the fake picture on the cover.



At least my story looks good, except the layout is kind of hard to read, the margins are screwed up and there are big black lines covering some text, they were put there for artistic reasons. bah.

It's my first cover story but I don't feel that excited. I wonder why. Is it because it's for a very small niche market magazine? Probably. I guess I just have delusions of grandeur. Or maybe it's because I've been writing for KoreAm since 1998. I think i need some new publications to write for.

I don't have a job. Part of me wants to have the security of a full-time job and part of me wants to just jump into the world of freelance. I haven't really had a chance to devote myself fully to this endeavor and I'm thinking I can make a living off it if I just get my shit together. It's all about self-motivation, I suppose. Something I'm not really that good at. bah. The soft deadline of magazines and the whole process of pitching stories is a big turnoff.

Anyway, here's what I'm looking into for freelance: Rolling Stone, Esquire, Spin, Maxim, Stuff, wired.com*, Wired*, GQ, Men's Health, New York magazine, Los Angeles magazine, New York Times city section, Wall Street Journal online, and of course, Gene Simmon's Tongue.

For your viewing pleasure, here's a group of racy Italian advertisements too hot for TV. This kind of reminds me of that hidden pictures thing from Highlights.

Fun with a purpose, indeed.

I checked my box at the journalism school and Jen Cho left some pictures of us from the boat ride. She's such a nice girl, always doing things like that.



My parents are in town to watch my brother's play. Opening night was yesterday. It was pretty good. Review to come. My parents also gave me pictures from graduation, I think i might scan some of those pictures in.
