OFFICIALLY EMPLOYED!

So I received the news today.... I am OFFICIALLY hired! YAHOOO! So excited... I will be a photographer at a professional portrait studio in Tucson. Can't wait! Even though they use a Nikon... boooo! haha. They say thet get a new camera every 6 months or so... So I will just have to convince them to get a Canon! Haha... Wish me luck on my first day!!!!

My DREAM!

OK so I WANT this friggin camera! Canon 5D Mark II, baby! It sounds SO awesome, looks awesome... and its Canon... so DUH it is awesome! I sold my 30D a while back so I could upgrade to the 40D. But then I lost my job and and needed the 30D money to pay bills! So... as soon as I get enough I am just gonna get the 40D.... cuz that is ALL I can afford! Maybe someday I can go for the big boy! Unless someone wants to buy it for me! :o)

New to this...

So I'm new to this whole thing... Just thought it would be a good place to get my thoughts, wishes and anything lame written out. So i guess.... a few things about MOI!

My name is Lyndzi. I love photography, sunsets, and art. Yep... I'm in the process of aquiring my Associates in Graphic Design. I've loved art since I can remember, and would love to have a creative career. I have about one year or so left. But lately, I have been dreaming about becoming a Veterinarian. I have always had an obsession/soft spot for animals, and would love to help those in need, but I could never get passed the blood and guts part. I have been telling myself to get over that, because in the end its helping out. Even with those thoughts in the back of my head, I have decided to go ahead with my Graphic Design route. And hey, if I ever feel the need to get in the Vet field, then I will go back a semester and get a certificate for Veterinary Sciences and see where it goes from there. Thats later though...

I have a boyfriend, Chris, who I have been with for almost 7 years. Oh yeah, it's been a long ass time! We have been through quite a bit together, but we have stuck it through and are very happy together. We hope to be saving for a house so we can get out of our most CURRENT situation... thats a story to come later! It WOULD be a lot easier if I had a JOB though!

I just recently was layed off from my job. Damn the friggin economy... They offered to split 40 hours between me and another receptionist, but that wouldn't work out. I was already working 30 hours a week, and she had 40 hours PLUS overtime. She had also been there 2 years and basically MADE that place what it was, and I had only been there 6 months. So I said SEE YA! Little did I know it would be close to IMPOSSIBLE to find a decent job quick enough to make some money, and who could accomodate my hours. Its been almost 2 months and I am still un-employed! I had a pretty promising interview at the end of last week, so I am hoping that will pan out! I just have to pass a background check, which I am SURE I will!

So thats it for now.... but I'm sure I will eventually be posting something else. Probably some photos because I am obsessed! If you would like you can check out my website... it's a work in progress but check it out anyway! www.LyndziRaybonArt.com

SEE YA!
