i've never really had bad luck. i have even had thoughts of how blessed i am that things just always work out. that may sound conceded, but it's true. things have just worked out for me in the past. that is, until this week. i've had more bad things happen to me this last week than in my entire life combined. i don't know what i am cursed with, but i hope it goes away soon. have you ever, forgotten your battery charger and extra battery in mccall before you left to europe? have you ever had your laptop crash with footage from a three day wedding on it? what about leaving a 16 gig memory card in italy with important footage on it? wait, have you lost two burnt DVD's that you meant to give to a client? how about that time you left your hard drive on top of your car only to realize it once you got to your desitantion?????!!?!!! that hard drive was my life. now it's most likely smashed somewhere on the road. i called tanner tonight and had the ultimate melt down. i'm ready to throw in the towel. i've seriously had it. i've always wanted to own my little videography company and now that's it's kind of taking off, every thing that could possibly go wrong, has. i want to sell my camera and say i tried. this won't happen of course. but at this moment all i want to do is shower and shave my armpits that have been neglected. i need sleep.
on a lighter note, amsterdam, holland was pretty cool.
ya id say holland would make up for all that bad luck, i mean seriously! you are so lucky you travel tons and have a beautiful life. those things are just that, just things. not to get too caught up in because in the long run DO NOT matter. never forget that :) glad you had such a beautiful trip. consider this a fresh start!!
ReplyDeletePoor Dar! You are now officially a photographer, it happens to all of us. I fried my external hard drive by plugging in the wrong plug and lost my entire first paid session. Ever. I ended up paying some people a lot of money to recover half of them from the original memory card. and then had to re-edit everything. such a mess. hang in there!
ReplyDeleteyeah that does suck. that's why i back up all my projects on two separate harddrives. and they never leave my office. lesson learned, my dear friend! :)
ReplyDelete... and yep... your trip looked awesome. how fun to do that with family - lucky dames!
Oh no- I am so sorry... The stresses of photo and videography- yuck- those are my worst nightmares ever! I have a little Bieber card waiting for when you get home.
ReplyDeleteI use to feel the same way, things just always work out. Then David got sick, but now we are living the good life. So don't worry it will come back!
ReplyDeleteI am sorry! Hate those streaks of bad luck. Don't quit though, you are too cute and talented to quit.
ReplyDeleteDon't quit! If you do, you'll look back in a few years and be SO disappointed that you did. On the other hand, if you stick with it, you will look back at this horrible week and laugh at the challenges you faced and how far you've come since.
ReplyDeleteAwww sorry you had such bad luck! Ughh it's so frustrating when stuff like that happens! Hope your streak is over :) And I LOVE Amsterdam! It's so gorgeous. Looks like you had a good time!
ReplyDeleteJust came across your blog and I love it! You are so cute! I love your hat too!
