Waiting To Go Home.

I was waiting for the 38BX to go home from work when I caught this angle.

This is why I like working in downtown San Francisco. The skyline in the Financial District is not as suffocatingly dominating as ones seen in metropolises, and yet it still is distinctively urban. San Francisco is just the right size for the Financial District to feel like you're in a metropolis and yet you still can quickly access neighborhoods as unique as the Haight, the Mission, and the Richmond, which makes the city incredibly diverse and versatile. Today was one of those days where I was able to take a small step back and realize how much God has blessed me in allowing me to live in a place like this.

I hope that you're able to find little breaks in the busyness of life to really reflect and be thankful of the blessings. :)

Biking to Sausalito.

Today, a whole group of us rented some bikes and biked to Sausalito, a small town past the Golden Gate Bridge. It was an absolutely gorgeous day to enjoy the weather and scenery. Anyways, I'll let the pictures do most of the talking today.

Simply breathtaking.

This little girl's name is Emily. She caught my attention as we were getting up to leave the park after lunch. I noticed how she was so focused on eating the ice cream cone her dad was holding, and amidst all the determination this three year old could muster, she wound up getting more ice cream on her face than in her mouth.

So cute...

The Palace.

I worked from home today and got some time to explore a part of the city with Gina and Jane. We went to the Palace of Fine Arts, which was a photo extravaganza for me. Although I liked how many of the shots turned out, I conservatively chose to post only one to save the others for later (in case I'm at my wit's end looking for a new shot).

Paint the Sky...

the benefit of waking have to leave for work so early in the morning (7am) is that my walk up the hill to my Google bus stop is often complemented by sunrises that literally take your breath away. however, the problem is that i'm so tired in the morning that i don't even pay attention to the gorgeous skyline. luckily, dear readers, that is where Project 365 came in, gave me a swift kick in the butt, and made me realize the beauty of God seen this morning.

today's lesson: at some point in the day, stop. take a look around. and soak in the beauty of His creation...

New Beginnings

Day 1 of Project 365 begins today...
I took my parents and my brother to Twin Peaks and afterwards to Fisherman's Wharf. While snapping some photos, I came across this angle from the edge of the pier. So what better way to begin this project than with a shot of a landmark from the city that I now live and love.
I think from this point, I'm going to do weekly updates with the daily pics posted. I hope you enjoy it.

Happy New Year, yall...
