talk about taking action....

In relation to my previous post, I've decided to take action towards remedying my problem (of not having enough photos with Darling Beau... not much of a "real" problem, if you think about it, but a problem nonetheless :p ), and went on a canvassing trip today with Darling Beau all over the Ayala triumvirate malls, searching and comparing different models, brands and features. And finally, I've decided, after everything, I'm gonna get the Sony Cybershot T77! World's slimmest camera, with 10 mega pixels and 15mb memory! It has a special technology that detects smiles and takes photos accordingly... which I must say will come out pretty handy in the future (think babies whose smiling faces are hard to capture if your hands aren't quick on the clicking).... Hehehehe.. I know, too much into the future... but still.... It helps me justify this purchase. This model also allows editing on-screen and can even detect if the image is blurry (if your hands are shaking) or if a subject blinked (and can even be set to automatically replace the shot with another one without the blinking)... Ain't that neat??!! I love it!

Hopefully I get my hands on my new black T77 within the week. Hope the delivery comes already!!! :D

Oh, on a last note, I decided to get the camera in black, in consideration of Darling Beau's ego. Hahaha!

ting! pochette is done!

My new epi pochette is finally done! Hehehe... I got it about two weeks ago, pre-loved, and since its strap needed some repairing, I left it to be repaired... and I just got a text yesterday that my precious new-to-me bag is finished and ready for pickup! Yay! I'll get it on Saturday! Can't wait :D

pichurs!

I realized tonight that Darling Beau and I do not have a lot of pictures together!! What a shocker! This is brought about by the ff reasons:
1. Both of us are not "ma-picture" kind of people. Nor are our families. So in general, we do not have a lot of pictures that document different parts of our lives. It may sound odd, but that's just how we're (not) wired.
2. We do not travel outside of Manila. This is because both our families do not believe in couples traveling and spending nights together (even innocently!) when they're not yet engaged. Hence, no traveling photos.
3. Neither of us own a camera. This may be a symptom for #1 above, but really, we do not own a camera between the two of us. Sure, our families both have a token camera (which largely remain unused, by the way, for the reason, see #1), but to take photos often, we'll need our own. Which we do not have.

So what to do... I realize if I don't act now, we'll end up with our wedding on-site video being composed of nothing more than a few baby pics, some pics with friends, some pics in Manila, and nothing else. We'll look so boring!

So, should I buy a camera now??!!? I figure this may be a small step towards a state of picture-dom. I can at least document our time together more often... or rather, I'll be equipped to (doesn't mean I'll do it, haha!).. but hey, a small step for mankind but a huge step for not-pala-picture me...

So, what should I do?!

great weekend

I'm so happy I declined the work trip to Macau (or rather, got myself out of it creatively)... this weekend was definitely one of the best... Simple.. we didn't really do anything extraordinary, granted, but it was just full of fun, laughter and love love love! :D

I say this to him a lot, but really, there are just those special moments when my heart feels so much love for him that it just wants to... burst! Hehehe :p He always groans and says why do I have to choose such graphic language, but really, that's how it feels! And I think graphic is better than mushy / gushy :p hehehe...

Happy happy happy :D

early christmas gift!

After a lot of deliberation, I decided to get this bag! Not only is the price such a great steal, considering it's LV and is in good condition, the bag is the perfect thing to bring on nights out and lazy Sunday shopping trips. :p

And perfection tops perfection as Darling Beau offered to fund this purchase so it's gonna be his Christmas gift for me! Win-win situation, believe me, as this relieves him of the task of coming up with a gift for me, which, I don't really know why, proves quite challenging for him.. Am I hard to please?!?! I think not! :p



My new baby! Sure, I couldn't quite take her home yet, as she needed some "repair work" on the straps, but hopefully, in 3 weeks, just in time for holiday party season, she'll be all mine!! :D
