  • new toy

        I'm so tired of studying......and i'm taking my few minutes to write blog haha.

    Got a new toy during Black Friday, i know I'm > 1 year late...actually wanted to ask Albert if he likes his camera, but don't seem to see him online during thanksgiving (he must have gone back to CA).

    Anyways, I finally took the plunge and bought a digital SLR. Why so slow? Cos my dad kept saying SLR should be the traditional film kind, and I do have a regular 35mm SLR (Minolta X700) with fancy lens, filters, flash..etc I even have that shutter cable, colored flash filter..etc (courtesy of my dad of course, he's very into camera) I knew once I get digital SLR, these will be put aside. Anyways, I couldn't resist and bought it from Amazon.

    Nikon D40 (yeah no $$$$, can't afford 40x) and a new VR zoom lens.

     

    Hello!

    bye bye

    My first thought? I find the "plastic" constructions very weird. I guess I'm used to the heavy big lens/camera body. These new camera feels really light (which is good), but it also feels like it's going to break into pieces if I drop it on the ground. Oh, and this is my first time using autofocus SLR. hahaha, muc h faster than manual focus of course. Now, the thing that is lacking is a good flash....and i have no macro lens!? But this is already a good upgrade over my point and shoot compact camera (which is totally lacking in control options, i was so frustrated when I want to use it for sports and low light situation......)

    Now, i just need to find time to go out and take some pics.

  • Long time no updates

    Yeah, cos I moved over to yahoo hk blog. Company's blocking all the websites that's supposed to distract you from being a slave...and xanga's one of them. Although, facebook and youtube are still accessible for now. We'll see how much longer they'll last. I see many pple are checking facebook at work.

    So, what's been up with me. I've became a bookworm! I stopped basketball and my flying lessons to prepare for school, but it didn't feel like my results are significantly better. hmm.....maybe I should just do my stuff, it's one of those, if you give me more time, I'll waste them anyways.

    This week's exam week, and I just realized if I were to take a day of exam off for all my classes, I lost about 8 days of my personal vacation days!!! That's crap! How can I go travel with half of my vacation spent on school!? Maybe I really need to fall "sick" a bit more often....

    The moral of the story, if you can, dont' study part time while working full time. I'ts one of the craziest thing to do, and trust me, it's not fun! I can't imagine someone doing it with family!
