I'm Just the Teenage Cameraman, After All

Word of the day: shopping trolley
shopping cart

Place of the day: Poetry Cafe
At this hole-in-the-wall cafe in Covent Garden, I read a final ode to my recently lost iPod.

Laugh or Cry?
After scrolling down through an e-mail conversation forwarded to me from my boss, I noticed he referred to me as the "teenage camera person."

I considered writing back and saying: "For the record, I am almost 23, but I'm glad I still look like a teenager."

He told me today that my work is "very pioneering," to be fair. But his humor is a breed of its own.

I am now listening to: Nothing, just the sad sound of shoe on pavement and the beeping of crosswalk lights in an iPodless existence.

Life w/o iPod gives you a chance to listen to the music in your head. Be still. It's there...

Maybe I'm just scared to hear that music!;) Thanks for your encouragement.
