wee-wee

One week till takeoff!

Many things to do:
  • Figure out how to work the camera and camcorder
  • Buy an extra SD card (if anyone know where I can find cheap ones, that would be awesome)
  • Pack, pack, PACK!!!!
  • Be on the lookout for: cheap tees and "china hometown" pants (aka flood pants/capris)
  • Pack extra rolls of toilet paper
  • Bring plug adapters, and chargers
  • More I can't think of right now

As some of you know, my camera finally came in on Thursday. Which was funny, cause I was going to call them and threaten to cancel my order and get my deposit back if it didn't come in on Friday. But alas, it came, and it's such a priceless beauty. I tried the panoramic "stich assist" on my patio and was very impressed:


I feel as if my 400 bucks has been totally worth it after this picture...!

Anyways, I bought a 1GB SD card, and I'm thinking of buying another one. I know I know, why didn't I buy the 2GB one...it's a long story. Anyways, if anyone knows of a cheap one, that would be uber awesome.

In regards to SD cards, I discovered something this weekend totally AWESOME. Some SD cards, when bought, come with a little pouch or snapbox to keep the card clean. Unfortunately, all the ones I bought have been cheap and didn't come with such things. So this weekend, I got pissed off and went off for a search of SD Card box, or something of the like. That is, until, Darren came up to me in Superstore proclaiming he wanted to buy Listerine Pocketpaks. I had a brilliant idea after that.

With the help of my dad, he chipped off some of the plastic that was in the way, and I got myself a brand new SD Card holder:


And even as a bonus, each pocketpak can hold not just one, but two SD cards (as shown). Hooray!!! So for those of you stuck in the same situation, there is always a cheap solution to an expensive problem: thank you Listerine!

Oh oh, and now for a Reach! Musical...I love this guy...! If this ever happened in lecture, it would make it as Class-of-a-Lifetime for me..!



Bloody awesome.

    go there, print it out, and Price match it at Futureshop or Bestbuy.

    Both have a 13 dollar Mail in rebate. So you literally get that card for CHEAP CHEAP!
