Nikon Coolpix L11

Two days ago I finally bought myself a digital camera - a point-and-shoot, 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix L11:


It's not very high tech but I like it. It was cheap too. It takes decent pictures (already took a lot of Harrison!) and very easy to use.

I'll always be bringing it with me so I can be ready if a good photo op arises.

I Am An Escapist

Yup. Escaping from reality is one of my guilty joys. My form of escape is losing myself to a book or a DVD. Last night I was really looking forward to watching House, MD and the frigging my player won't play the disc! After several minutes of tapping the player, talking to it, cajoling it to read the DVD, I finally gave up. I went to Cheryl's apartment to watch the blasted thing on her DVD player (which worked just fine). Now every time I want to watch House, I'd have to go to her apartment. Oh well. Better than nothing.

Wish I Had A Digital Camera

For the longest time I've wanted a digital camera. It seems like everybody has it except me. Soon I'll buckle and use my credit card to buy myself one. It's just a matter of time.

Besides, I think it would be more interesting to have pictures on this blog, no? Most people are not patient enough to skim through endless lines of words whose subject is only interesting to the writer. I don't know why I think about that since I know that I'm the only one who's going to read this blog. OK then, I'm going to do this for myself. I think it will be nicer to have pictures here, especially if my topic leans toward the prosaic.

So! It's payday in a few days - might get myself one of those cams. I learned from my extensive research that optical zoom is more important than mega pixels. Great! If I were wearing comfortable shoes now I'd go to the mall soon after work. However, I'm limited by my wedge pumps. I can wait till tomorrow.
