new toy!

ooh yeah moi's got a brand new toy and i've got it now! i went down to MS Color in AMK and got it at S$310. the recommended retail price from Canon was $349. ok la i'm satisfied. the model is Canon Powershot A400. i got the tangerine color. the basics are it's 3.2megapixels, and 2.2x zoom. nothing fancy, gets its juice from 2x AA batteries and takes in either SD/MMC cards for storage. it came with a 16MB SD, and Canon threw in another 128MB SD, plus that same 7-in-1 bag my sis got. i collected it at Keppel Tower as well. screen ain't too huge so i'd hope the battery lasts longer since the screen is smaller and takes up less power. oh yeah another thing, Canon provides free storage space online for its customers. can't rem how much MB, but it's free, and allows me to store photos there to share with others.

ooh i decided on Canon because the BTL being a designer et al strongly put her money on Canon products, and so did jason. who was i to argue with the enthusiasts? i only wanted something cheap and easy. i'm not the finicky type for quality. just want my value for money aye V^_^ of course Canon has a more reliable ring to it... than Digimaster, Sanyo and whatnot. i did a comparison of this cam to the other brands. indeed the colors seem richer.

my birthday is coming. i hope things turns out fine. today was a remarkable day. yesterday night aka this 12th Jan wee hours of the morning, i didn't sleep. a wink. and i sent my sis to work and got back home, finally dozing off for an hour or so about noon, then popped to AMK for the digicam. did another few power naps at intervals through out and that was it. i'm abit on the high side, but overall i'm ok. drinking loads of water. think my flu caused me the lack of slumber. it was dripping constantly. so i woke up wee hours to watch mtv, cartoons, simpsons, odd movies... then my maid saw me awake and made me my cuppa milo peng. mummy woke and saw me "wah why so early" and i told her i cudn sleep. she assumed i _woke_ early. gawd no. there was no waking up. i just _kept_ awake. no change in state. and i got high and sent my sis to work. so throughout i was alive surviving on adrenaline. then my battery died out before lunch. i was hungry but i had to close my eyes _for a while_... all in all it's my flu to blame.

i shall play with this new digicam of a toy of mine abit before i KO at last. hope i can get some proper shuteye.

i think i made a good friend upset. i'd like to apologise. i'm sorry. it won't happen anymore.

*nervous for my birthday, nervous for the next phase of my life*
