I normally don't hate work or the job I have to do. But for the first time in my whole life, i have found a job that no matter how much you pay me,i don't think I will do it.
The work it self isn't hard, i guess with some time it would be easy. It is just the people that is suppose to train you, that makes the work some what unenjoy able. My hand are all blistered from handling the hot plastic modeling, and the gloves that i was given , didn't do shit.
Will I go back, Hell no. well maybe if i didn't already have a new job offer, and the new job looks more promising.
I guess I should say I hate the job, maybe i just don't like doing that kind of work anymore. I went to school so I can get out of those hard laboring job. But when you need work and nothing is coming your way, what is there to do.
Work, and do what ever work you can get, and if that work sucks; stick with it or quit. but make sure you have some other work line up before you quit. And in my case I do.

Star Wars: The old Republic
Can Bioware and Lucas Art dethrone Blizzard's World of Warcraft from it's dominance in the MMORPG market with it's future release of SWtOR?
The game set to be release sometime in the late quarter of 2011; my guess it will be during the holidays around Nov or Dec. After reading about the game from it's official website I am looking forward to trying it out.
It is currently in close beta, with open beta coming soon. the video highlight show a similar game play and combat control much like WoW. the graphic is crisps and the movement looks smooth and fluid.
Players have two faction to choose from, 4 characters class from each faction and 2 advance sub class from their starting class. the factions that a player can join are either the Sith or the Repulbic.
Players then can be a Jedi, a Trooper, a smuggler or a Jedi consular on the republic side. On the Sith side a player can choose to play as a Sith warrior, a Bounty Hunter, an Imperial Agent or a Sith Inquisitor.
I am hoping for a beta invite so i can test the game out and continue reporting on the game until it goes live. right now my opinion on the game is neutral at best. I do however wish that the 2 class, Bounty hunter and Smuggler would not have been faction specifics. these class should be an independent class who can work for either the Sith or republic.
But for now one can only hope for the change and who knows the game is still in beta and they could change it before it goes live.

Anime has got a grasp on me
Lately I have been watching a lot of anime, or i could say that i have been catching up on over 10 years of anime that i have missed.
There have been a few that are really good with both, art work and story line. If you are into Anime or and are looking for something to watch to kill some free time, check out some of these suggestion.
These are a list of what i enjoyed and your taste might not be similar to mine.
Clannad and Calnnad: after Story are both great show with a great storyline and the animation are in par with nice crisp detail. the ending is a bit confusing but if you pay attention to the minor detail at the beginning or during the show you will somewhat understand it.
Baka and Test and Summon beast, a great comedy with some funny humor, if you are a fan of old RPG games and watching the fight scene from the shows it is hysterical.
School Rumble, It never gets old and the love triangle is one that you have to pick a side and root for that person to win. It has a great mixture of Humor, romance and old school animation. the storyline is all over the place but it is a great show to watch and enjoy for the comedy aspect of it.
These are just a few of what i enjoy and there are more. you can find shows like these as well as other show that i might not have listed yet by googleing for them, on Hulu, at Crunchyroll . Other site i have found useful is Animeseason and Animeflavor both have a good list of anime shows and you just have to bare with some of the links if it doesn't work or if it slows down.
Well that is it for now, I'll try to update as well as review some more shows later.

Happy New year
It is a new year, but yet it still feels like it still 2010. All I got to say is that I am not going to make any new year resolution since I can't seem to stick to it anyway.
The one thing I have notice is that 2010 has went by fast. at least we don't have to deal with any election ads for a whole year.
Last nights New years eve party at Ducks was a blast. everyone got drunk, danced and had their pictures taken. I will have the photo up in a few days for viewing.
This year i will be booking more shoots, either paid, or TFP. most of the shoot will be on location so if anyone is interested in having their pictures taken or want to give modeling a try, contact me and we can work something out.
I am also looking for a few swimsuit Models for some shoot coming this summer.
For now all i have to say is Happy New Year and i will see you soon
Y'all come back now ya hear.

Obama need to man up
I don't normally post or rant about politic in a public format, but i just can't stand how the Democrats and the white house is handling the Republican's bullying tactics.
I consider myself an independent with social concern and some form of fiscal responsibility. We have to balance the budget as well as providing social services to our citizens that are in need.
There are ways to do this, and giving a tax cut to the top 2% of the riches people is not one of those ways. I don't mind paying a little more taxes if it will help my city with school funding, road repair and other infrastructure projects. Hell if we didn't have taxes to pay for all the public roads and park we would all still be driving on dirt roads.
As for the health care reform; I wish the Dem didn't falter to the repug. and took out the public option and installed the mandate. The only thing that everyone hates about the HCR is the mandate that everyone has to buy insurance, and that is what everyone is fighting the HCR on.
Take out the mandate and I bet you people will shut up about it. Add in a public option and the health insurance company will have to compete for customers so they cant keep on raising rates and cutting benefit.
We all know that the current republicans in DC want to deny Obama any kind of success, so why is he still trying to reach across the party line to work with them. They already said it in public that they want him to fail.
So i just have to say this, President Barrack Obama; Grow some balls and man up to the republican, stand up for what you believe and the people who voted you into office. They even gave you the house and senate in 08 and you failed to capitalize on the opportunity. Instead you backed down to the party of no, If you show the public how the republican are and what their agenda is, the real public ( those that voted for you) will support you.
But if all you are worried about is the Tea party ( a minority in the voting block) and do things that isn't in the favor of your party and independents then you will see a repeat of the current midterm result.
So man up Obama and fight these republican, let the current bush tax cut expire and draft a new tax cut for the middle class and the real small business and not the hedge fund guys. Do this and i bet you the real public, ( those that aren't use in some poll) will be find with it.
I think i', done ranting now, thanks for your time

Heading up to Gooseberry Fall
With the fall colors coming into full swing, I'll be heading up to gooseberry falls State Park for the weekend in Oct 8th-10th to take some pictures and do some camping and backpacking.
The weather is starting to get a little bit colder, I just hope that it doesn't get too cold when I am up there. I also think I'll be doing a lot more backpacking this fall; visiting any state park in Minn when possible.
I am also booking any senior portraits and wedding for the remaining season as well as for next year. so If you know anyone that would like to have their wedding or portraits done, let me know or have them visit my website.

well later and I'll update you all on my trip.
