new camera!

lately my cousin's old Canon Ixus died...which is really quite inconvenient for me since i want to take pictures of my sampling site, and it is really a pain when i go for field trips because i cant take any pictures at all. so decided to get one, using some of my hard-earned money and the other part is sponsored by my father. went to the Canon Expo today, and bought it!

This is it: Canon PowerShot A570 IS



my actual target is actually an Ixus, since i have been using Ixus all this while. but then..mainly because of the price (which is a little cheaper than the Ixus 75 i wanted initially), and also the functions (since you can sort of 'play' and learn more as you can adjust those shuttle speed etc, but you cant do these with an Ixus), and the freebies (i got a backpack and a 2GB memory card), so i bought this...at first i was still a little worried about the camera, since it is obviously more complicated than just a simple Ixus. but to think about it now, i m happy, since i have my own camera :) hopefully i will fully understand everything one day hahaaa

saw Simon Yam (任达华) today..well he is not really my idol, but he is still a super star. so joined in the fun to have a closer look at him, asked for his autograph and took a picture with him. once he arrived, the camera flashes just couldnt stop!!! but he was really friendly, didnt see a moment of him rejecting any shots or refusing any request for autographs. it is of course undeniable that he is VERY GOOD LOOKING, eventhough he is not very young. show u the picture when i get it then

had quite a nice day with Eileen, who went to the Expo together with me. thanks for the day :)

have been sick for a few days..sorethroat and flu. haih..dont like flu because i cant sleep well when i have blocked nose, and flu is always tiring. let me get well please..
