Week 9

, , , ...

At uni, it's week 9, so here's what happend....


In my house, we get a new point and shoot camera nearly every week.

Up until a month or so ago, I was using a Samsung Digimax A40 (I think). It's 3 years old and has 3 or 4 MP. The view finder screen thing was VERY clear. I liked it. Only problem, you couldn't change any settings (well, I couldn't find a way to)

Then I used 4 other cameras and they all annoyed me for various reasons.
  • The screens were pixely and noisy
  • One didn't have an 'on button'...instead there was an 'on wheel'
  • Too big and if it could talk this particular camera would say 'Hi, I'm Cameron the camera. I'm a point and shoot but in my dreams, I'm a DSLR'
  • One kept grizzling that it was flat
  • One had a 'shield' thing over the lens, that you had to slide across when you wanted to take a photo.


For the past few days I have been using a Kodak M1033 HD(but mine is black) for a while. It looks better than all the others...but it's kind of weird. However, I am able to change the settings such as exposure times and other stuff that only people who know lots about cameras can explain. So, lets see if this one annoys me too.

Some photos (these are not here to show you how good/bad the camera is...because I only worked out how to make it take GOOD pictures 5 minutes ago)


The Hoff lives in a car in my driveway


Water is precious in Australia. You're only allowed a shower once every two weeks P:


It's everyone's favourite friend/sheep/crime fighter/celebrity chef...INTERSHEEP!


Please put your gum into the bin!!

Smelly guy:
Yesterday a guy with an extreme case of BODY ODOUR sat next to me in the computer pool. It was HORRIBLE! I was going to move, but there were no other free computers :frown: Come on, get yourself some anti perspirant!

Echidna
I went walking yesterday and saw an echidna. I didn't have a camera :frown: This echidna has a camera though...and a better one than mine!

FREE icecream
Miss D and I went to McDonalds yesterday afternoon for icecream. The staff made an icecream for someone in the drive though, but the customer didn't want it. The girl asked me if I wanted it. YESSSS! So, I got a free icecream :smile:

That's all for today my friends.

Letter, vegetables and Intersheep

I'm happy :smile:

This afternoon I received an email from my uni saying that they have accepted my application for exchange. I have to go to a meeting where I'll receive the application forms for the German university :up:


Intersheep is in my bag and ready to go to Germany ALREADY!! That sheep needs a calendar!

Now for some photos. I'm using a different camera (one that my dad used to use) with 8 mega pixels. My dad got a new one with a bigger optical zoom. Now he takes photos of useless random stuff (wall paper, clocks...) just so he can zoom in on it :lol:



It's normal for people to HATE brussel sprouts. I can't see what is so horrible about them. They're sooooo good!! My cousin, who cried when she first tried icecream even likes them :wink:


This is Intersheep's new favourite mug :wink:

Now it's probably time for some homework :frown:

Bored, new camera, stuff, february

It’s 4.22 and I’m still in my Pjs…Oh, I just heard my toast pop up. I’ll be back in a minute! I need to toast it twice. It’s not toast unless it's brown!

Mmm that tasted yummy; avocado, tomato, cucumber and carrot on rye :yes: Avocado is great! However it's bad when you buy one that isn't ripe.

Adelaide has some strange Summer weather at the moment. It’s only around 20 degrees Celcius right now. It’s cloudy outside. There was eclipse today, not that I noticed.

This is from my window. Most of the garden is dead and the lawn (which you can't see) is a lovely yellow.

Guess what??? I got a new camera!! WOOT!! It’s black and big and fancy looking! I bet you’re jealous already P:


No, it's not any of these.... (Canon pic, Nikon pic)


THIS is my new camera, a Kodak Pocket Junior or something p: They were made in the 1920s...wow, they must have had BIG pockets back then!!! There's no way it'll fit into my pockets. I think it's broken. It looks like one of thse things you start a fire with :lol:

Schmienz once showed us her wristband collection (I can't find the post right now). Now I present mine. I only bought 3 of them: the blue one, the white one and the silver ones. People gave me the others, or I found them :smile:


I also have a bag collection. Out of all of these bags, I only purchased 2. The others, people have given me. My auntie gives me lots of cool stuff :D


I almost forgot it was February and not January. This meant I flipped over my calendar. Oh it was a fantastic occasion it was; full of happiness and surprise :wink:

It says 'Ich wuensche dir jede Menge Liebe, von den Zehenspitzen bis ueber beide Ohren' which means...'I wish you a lot of love, from your tip toes to your ears'...or something like that.
