So I guess I didn't get the job at stampington but oh well(no reply by the end of the day).... life goes on right? I really wanted that job too..sigh.... On the bright side I did get into my portraiture class that only comes around once every 2 years but it's like a 6-10:20pm class eeks. Also, my new order of 220ml ink cartridges for my epson stylus pro 4880 comes in thursday so I'm pretty excited about that. Should be here sometime on thursday(2/4/2010) from B&H in nyc. Spent around $900 on inks and fine art paper. These rolls of photo/fine art paper don't come cheap. Same with the ink cartridges. It's around $112 per color and the printer has 9 different colors to support the new k3 ultrachrome printer head. So hopefully I'll start selling some portraits soon to get some money back. Also I need to look into a website & business cards for the quinceanera in august and the wedding in September!
As for the picture of the day, I haven't really been keeping up so my picture of the day is actually from yesterday evening. Me & the usuals ate at a new japanese restaurant called Taiko. It's a sushi spot that has a nice authentic homey feel to it right next to yogurtland(not A&J). The portions are generous, and the service is great. You start off with a bowl of rich miso soup and hot green tea. I ordered combo #7 which had sashimi fried chicken and tuna steak. After tax & tip, it came out to around $20 per person so it was very fairly priced. The night was topped off with Yogurtland and we parted ways. Good way to end the night! =)

Long time no see! I hope you're doing well! And i'm glad to see you're going into photography!!!
I dont know if you ever heard of "Moo Cards" they have exceptional service regarding business cards. You can make individulized business cards with different pictures (uploaded to flickr). The material of the card is similar to silk screen so it's beautiful. You might want to check them out. People have asked for several different kinds of my cards and it's been a sucessful way for me to get more of my name out there :]
Just a thought!
And also, I dont know if you've heard of cabonmade.com but they do a great service with a simple portfolio site. (that is if you havnt bought a web service already). If you plan on purchasing one, Showit.com is AMAZING. :]
Good luck with everything! I hope to see some more of your work soon :]
