So, Flickr is great. I have organized all my pictures on Flickr and they are no longer taking up space on my camera and hard drive!

Learning to Post from Flickr

2007-07-03T16:49:00.000-07:00

I will keep the previous two posts as a testimony to my attempts of posting. This is an example of my greatest learning obstacle confessed in my second post. I read the instructions for posting photoes from Flickr and I insisted that there must be an easier way. Then I asked Derek and Melissa about it and stubbornly my thoughts insisted that there must be an easier way.

If you click on the white box (the one you can barely see) you will be taken to my photo of choice. My system did not work out as well as I hoped so I will just have to accept that there is not an easier way!

So I have now spent nearly two hours looking at photos of people at do not know on Flickr. I am not being at all cynical either, I love looking at pictures. Serafina had so much fun at her wedding I feel like I could have been there! And Megan’s trip to the Burobudor Temple was spectacular. She had a great experience according to those smiles and waves in the pictures. When I was sixteen I climbed to the top of the Borobudor and became overcome by the heat and threw up on one of the bodhisattvas before I passed out. That is a true story - perhaps I am not enlightened yet but at least I am honest about my experience trying to get there.

I found a picture on Flickr that I want to post to my blog. It happens to be a classmate from Catholic U. MLS program dancing at Glen Echo. In fact, I have danced with him at Glen Echo several times – but alas I am not in this picture. Now I just need to figure out how to post it!

Life Long Learning.

My father used to ask my sisters and I "What is your five year plan? Always have a five year plan." Despite the eye rolling and grumbling he got in response I liked having a five year plan, and always had one! I continue to be a planner/learner, a work in progress moving towards the ideal Stephanie. I have drawn and painted pictures of, wrote pages about, and have many lists describing my learning objectives. When I get an idea or feel a need to learn I don’t hesitate to ask lots of question and take classes or read all about it in books from my local library. I think my biggest obstacle towards learning is a tendency to abandon projects suddenly when I lose interest and a stubbornness in working with others if I don't agree with their system or ideas!
