It's 12:23am on Monday as I type these words. After several intense hours, I've finally published photos from past events that I've been neglecting: Sala Rociera and Cherry Blossom Festival.

Yeah, I could say I've been too busy but the truth is that I could manage my time better. Logic dictates that I could spread out a large task into several small ones, right? Then again sometimes I like to dive in head first, get some momentum going and keep pushing and pushing until I'm done.

This is what my desk looks like when I'm working for long stretches of time like tonight...

There's an accumulation of water and Coke bottles and an empty bag of Fritos. OK not exactly healthy stuff, but I know what works for me.

You know what they say. Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it. Well I wished that people would send photos for me to publish in my blog . This time around I received so many.

Here's the process. First I have to download the individual photos (some of them full-size images--which I prefer). Then I have to select the best ones and edit and resize them. Next I have to upload them to my web server and put them in chronological order in my blog. Finally, I have to add some commentary. I have my lazy days where I put in less effort than others, but in the end, I still want to publish something that I'll be proud of.
