Christine Chang Photography

I was going to write about my mind wandering off today, but really, I find that every day my mind wanders off into somewhere, the edges of reality and imagination blurring.  That statement is pretty way of saying that I’m, simply and now proudly, a space cadet.  It wasn’t always this way– in the orderly world of school and in some parts of real life this does not prove advantageous–it’s funny to me how, when I first stepped into UCLA I thought I wanted to suit up and be a CEO of a big and powerful company (I know, as specific as teen thoughts get sometimes), just to go through school and discover that corporate was the last thing I really wanted to do.  

Fast forward about ten years and I don’t suit up every day and I’m not in charge of a big and powerful company.  This was the goal that I’ve wanted to accomplish all along, because the path I am on now is better. Not that there’s anything wrong with suiting up and being a CEO, but there are unique and special personalities for this and since space cadet is on the top of my list my life would (and had been) difficult in a cubicle environment.  

But here’s my thought for today: although I am not where I need to be, currently I am where I need to be in order to be where I need to be in the future.  Try saying that ten times as fast.

And since this is a photo blog here are some photos back in the editorial days when I was running around covering stories, some interesting and some not-so-interesting.  In the spirit of the Miss America Pageant, I present to you the Hottest Moms of America:

This contest was sponsored by Restalyne.  Restalyne is a drug like Botox, so you get by now why they were having this contest.   

Time to get to work!  But before that I leave you with this thought: Hotness is in the eyes of the beholder.

Eat your vegetables,

Christine.
