Today got a little out of hand at work, and the schedule I had planned didn't go exactly as planned. Sometimes it happens and one thing this profession has taught me is that you have to roll with the punches. So since I wasn't able to get my workout in at the gym, I decided to shift gears and go for a run (also knowing that I'm going to get my ass kicked tomorrow...more to come).
Here's all the fun specs of my short run...
And the playlist that got me going...
Skrillex - Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites
Bullet for My Valentine - Begging For Mercy
Comeback Kid - Balance
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Factory of Faith
Off to shower and make guacamole for tomorrow!
#NowPlaying Brand New - Sink
I've been called a "Jack of all trades," but there's a slight problem with that - my name is Mike. From photographer to personal trainer to tech junky to video gamer to sports enthusiast, my hands are definitely in several cookie jars at once...except I can't eat cookies on my diet.

Mid Week Update
Sorry it's been a couple days since my last post. Things have been pretty busy and have had little time to write. Over the last few days, my roommate and I have painted and rearranged a room in our house, I've edited photos from a wedding I shot in May, an engagement shoot, my roommate's band and this past weekend's show. You can see some of my work by visiting these links...
Susie and Tim's Wedding
Jonesy
Bay State Natural
As I expected, being at the show this past weekend did make me want to compete again, but I don't want to rush it. My current plan is to maintain through the summer; come September I'll begin a bulking program to hopefully put on 10-15 lbs of lean muscle. We'll take it from there!

Shipping Up to Amherst
Sorry for the incredibly cliche post title, but you knew it was coming with any trip up to Massachusetts. So this weekend I'm up in Amherst, MA helping out my body building coach with a show. It will be nice to see a show and not have to deal with the stress of performing in it. I'm sure after seeing everyone on stage I'll want to do another one, but I know I need my break so that thought probably won't stick around for too long. Here's a picture from my last show to leave you with... don't get caught staring for too long!

Is it too early to pack?
So it's been quite a while since I last posted - seven months actually. What better way to get back in the swing of writing again than discussing my freshly booked trip to New Zealand! I've decided to jump along with Contiki tours to make the trip as easy an carefree as possible. This tour is the one I'll be taking - the Scenic Southern. Ever since last November, I've been trying to book a trip and after Amsterdam fell through for September, this became my next destination I set eyes on. After making a few calls to Nadine at Vista Travel in Colonia, NZ was finalized! Let the countdown begin!!
