2007 has been one of the best years of my life. I thought that I’d take a look back at the year and all of the great adventures I’ve had.

As A Photographer:

• I had a photo I edited featured on the Yahoo! Earth Day website.
• I got my first photo on the cover of the Cornell Daily Sun.
• I made staff at The Sun a month later.
• I found my photo used in David Skorton’s biography on Wikipedia.
• I photographed Sandra Day O’Connor at a lecture during her visit to Cornell.
• I photographed Bob Woodward during a lecture he gave at Ithaca College.
• I photographed a bunch of other cool people as a Senior Photographer for The Sun.

As A Cornellian:

• I reveled in the freedom of the first Cornell Snow Day in many, many years.
• I developed a group project that brought in thousands of visitors from around the world overnight.
• I took advantage of a beautiful Ithaca spring.

As An Intern:

• I was offered an internship at Yahoo!.
• I went to California for the first time.
• I went hiking and surfing all in the same weekend.
• I recorded a podcast with other interns about music.
• My roommate and I fought a slug and won.
• I learned to live like a Californian.

As A Chef:

• I finally learned to cook!
• I hosted a dinner party for friends.
• I made a huge mess in an attempt to cook the perfect meal with my friend April.

Just As Me:

• I turned 21.
• I went to WordCamp.
• I discovered that there is a perfect job for me.
• My childhood dream came true when I got tickets to the Spice Girls concert for Feb ‘08.

All in all, I’d say this has been a pretty successful year. I’ve done things I’d never dreamed of doing and I’ve met a lot of really amazing people along the way. I hope 2008 brings this much excitement and adventure!
