Day 80 (Weds., Nov. 30)

The day was really good today. I kept busy and I had fun. But something happened today that made me ashamed of myself.

My first assignment took me to an after-school center where I shot photos of kids ages 10 to 14. I went there and I really wasn't thinking too much. Usually, when I work I take off my tongue ring because it's just not proper business attire. However, today I forgot about taking it out. As I talked to the kids, a 14-year-old girl told me that it was cool that I had a tongue ring. I felt so bad!

What kind of example am I setting?

Depressing.

On top of that, I had to lie when she asked me if it hurt. I told her it was the worst experience ever in an attempt to not set a bad example. But it was already too late. I had failed the kids and I felt so bad.

Next, I headed to a bank where there was a Latino celebration. The bank is trying to have good services for the Spanish-speaking community, so they opened a bilingual banking center.

I hung out there while looking for cool angles like the one above. I asked myself "How many times there is a piñata inside a bank?" So I had to get it in the photos.

I was trying to be creative.

Yesterday - Main - Tomorrow
