As promised from the earlier post, I would tell you about the fortune I read out of a Chinese fortune cookie. This happened back in late October when I was in the process of building my food website http://www.anngagno.com. When you are working full-time as a chemist and moonlighting at night as a photographer, you have little or no time to cook. I have lived on the anything delivery and anything fast food. I know, I know. This is not the way of a foodie but when you are desperate for sustenance, you would literally bite on anything ;)
On that late October night, I ordered Chinese food and it suddenly hit me. Having a good collection of fortune cookies from all the delivery I have had, why not take a picture of it? I have this vision in my head to focus the image on the fortune on the foreground and bunch up wrapped fortune cookies in the background. So I pick one fortune cookie and break it and imagine my surprise at the fortune that I read. It said “You are soon going to change your present line of work”. I cracked up laughing
and feverishly snapped images of this unbelievable find. Changing careers have been my intention for a whole while now and for the gods to seemingly agree with me seals the deal! So like I said in the earlier post, it seems really insanely out-of-character of me to jump into the unknown. But I feel good about this uncertainty so I am making this jump with both feet in. Cross your fingers and hold your breath with me ;)
