HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ”ALOUD?” hahahahaha! ok I’m mostly done laughing – we can move on. :)
For a graduation gift to myself (WAHOO!!! Did I tell you all that I’m about to graduate with my second post-graduate degree and my first masters?? YAY!!) I decided to give myself a DSLR. AAANNNNDDDD what could be better timing for a new dinosaur (yeah – dinosaur – especially when compared with my ultracompact!!) than an unexpected trip across the continent?? I agree – no better timing. So thanks to a little shipping help from M&D I got my camera in time to rock and roll!!!
(oh btw – Dad informed me today that if I’m bugged by the size of my new camera he’d be MORE than happy to take it off my hands. lol)
First Self Portrait taken with new Camera
(oh come on now – did you expect anything besides a self portrait?? let’s be real.)
Want to know the best part of having a great camera? Less post-production!!! It’s not that I don’t love photoshop – but photoshop takes time – and having a camera that requires no photoshopping?? That’s pretty dang sweet. :)

I’ll try to get a smiling one tomorrow (haha! ok I’m done giving time frames – it’s not going to happen tomorrow. Let’s say instead – I’ll try to get a smiling one at some point in the future.)
So yeah – anyway – I think my new camera and I are going to be besties. I’ve already decided she’s a girl. And a dinosaur. So now she just needs a name. Maybe something fierce – after all I’m quite sure she’s probably a Bad A Tyrannosaurus Rex. Yup Yup. Ooh – could Yup Yup be a name?
Hmmm…
P.S. – Scoman pointed out that I also quit my horoscope project after a week. LOL – I laughed so hard when I read that. It’s true!!! I did!!! HOWEVER in my defense – I’ve done it for the last few days. I sent an apology to CC+4 because of my horoscope, I was more demanding on an icrush’s time because of my horoscope, and yeah – fun times. ;)
p.p.s. – yes mom – that DID say I sent an apology to CC+4. And yes I know – you think it’s HIM who owes ME one. lol oxoxox

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayy! I love present for myself and a camera is the best kind! CONGRATULATIONS, Beautiful woman!
Muah!
(((hugs)))
hurrah! I love the photos SLRs take. I look forward to seeing yours. Your pictures were beautiful before and now they’re gonna be even better!
I’m going to put a suggestion out there. This is your “Going to take on a dream opportunity in WA” gift to yourself, which means you still owe yourself a gift for graduating (Congrats on that by the way). Giving yourself gifts is one of the best things a person can do, and any excuse will do.
Great self portraits with the new camera.
Yup Yup sounds like a good name. I wouldn’t give to to a child though. But for a camera, it sounds good.
I remember on line dating. They were ok, but mostly reminded me of a Seinfeld episode. So many characters out there! The phone is a big step too…. meet them in person sooner rather than later so you can see if your chemistry translates in person. I found that out the hard way!
Keep up posted and keep taking those beautiful photos!
