Mistakes Made - Lessons Learned
So here I am sitting in Olds, will sitting isn't exactly the best word. I've hardly had time to catch my breath since I got here. I've done so much it feels like I've been here for a week or too.

I think the only thing I have yet to shoot in the last two days is someones kitchen sick. Kids a French Carnival, RCMP looking for finger prints on a vandalized car, a mechanic, Olds High School Basketball Session Final, Pet Oral Health, skateboarders, not to mention the rather dull assignments that I have to make exciting, like dangerous crosswalks in Carmona and such.

What have I learned...ask questions, NEVER just drive by anything even half interesting, don't be afraid to ask questions, never leave your flash card at the office, listen, keep your eyes open, become more then curious even at the risk of sounding like a nerd...do your research. Just about all those things they taught us in school hold true. Pity I'm such a hands on learner... I might have been able to skip the mistakes and just learn.
