learn french well enough to have an entire conversation with my grandma & apply for bilingual jobs
still working on this in france, of course.
this month in class i've been learning the imperatif and subjunctif verb tenses. - how to give orders and how to speak in a tense that my french students say they never use - whoo hoo! also learned some expressions like "it's raining like a pissing cow." the equivalent of raining cats & dogs.

master the use of photographic flash/5 portfolio building preplanned photoshoots
though neither of these is near complete i did get to do a little beach shoot with some friends in march.
practice is what i need - i find i have difficulty telling 'models' what to do, how to pose, etc.
i used a little bit of flash to balance the sun in some shots - others are natural light or i used a reflector disc to bounce the light back. (view more here)
organize my harddrives
this still needs another couple of hours - wow there are a lot of old files! ha ha.
