will you be mine?

Urm sorry if I'm boring you with my love for photography (and suddenly, in video). Just bear with me while I express my lurrrrrve. I'm so in love that I've started thinking of what to name my non-existent Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

For me, choosing my first DSLR is THE big decision, just like choosing your first car, the perfect spot to propose (gotta be dramatic!), which uni to go to, (for chyi) which 1st super luxury bag to buy HAHA ok you get my point. It is a big deal. Which is why I'm 100% sure that 5Dm2 is the perfect one for me.

But no, I won't get it now. The price is still skyhigh. The cheapest on trademe is $6200, cheapest on ebay Australia is about $5800 (after conversion), body only is sold out on Amazon! Yeah I just got my current camera last September, but well HEHE 1 year is not too bad, right? (trying to convince myself here)

Anyway.

This guy here is a genius. He makes awesome videos using 5Dm2.

People in Msia, can help me scope the prices for this baby? ;) I'll be so grateful if you do. Chiah you laksa when I do get back someday hehe. Might get parents to buy this when they come over for graduation end of the year *fingers crossed they will allow*

Me, materialistic?

Had lunch with Emily at Eureka before she leaves for Auckland tomorrow morning. The mushrooms toast was soooooo delicious I'm still craving for more of it. One thing though, the food there is overpriced I find. Small serving of brunch costed me close to $16. Vivo Vena still has decent-priced meals. Oh and we had to shout just to listen to each other as a group of girls came in halfway, apparently celebrating someone's birthday and were so loud/annoying.

Anyway, it was great having Emily play the viola at church for the past few months. She's amazingly talented with her super expensive viola haha (not to be confused with violin).

I've been eating out a lot this past week. :(

Lunch with Chyi (and a little bit of shopping) yesterday, then tried out some kind of tea (can't remember) at the Taiwanese place nearby with Mich & Ron, then had fish (minus the chips) from flying squid last night for dinner. Ya I know so unhealthy the last meal, but was lazy to cook and I felt so BAD after having it as it was so oily/unhealthy/GAH awful. Yes I even made a trip to the toilet after dinner... THAT BAD.

I'm bored- came up with my updated wishlist:

1. MELISSA "Night" flats. sigh so pretty.
2. Canon EOS 5D Mark II. *BIG SIGH again* approx $6500!
3. Karen Walker (Hi there collection) floral bow dress- for my 22nd *wink*
   
4. Overland leather brown boots $279.90
5. Ralph Lauren sunnies from Sunglass Hut $449.90
6. Watch Transformers 2!!!! (coming out on the 23rd June)
7. Saben "daphne" $355.00

Oh and while browsing through facebook, I found out that my cousin and an ex-schoolmate (and then from Janice: a younger sister of an ex-classmate too) from Kuching High had entered this competition- Breeze Model Search EEEEEEEKSSSSS! haha So ah lian and ah beng most of the photos, terrigible makeup & outfits, bad photography and terrrrrrible photoshop. Embarrassing-nya. Some of the guys even look like those ah bengs seen lepak-ing at Saberkas... Whatever happened to style and GOOD photography?! I'm sure there's still talent (somewhere) in Kuching?

But it was good fun laughing at some of the photos ;)

P.S. guess which guy is my cousin HAHAHAH
