Ick.
It's 9:30 am ; I should be asleep for at least another 2 hours...
I recently got a new digital camera...8 megapixel Nikon Coolpix P4...I really like the pictures...
This is a drastically scaled-down version of a picture of the second level of my display case...A lot of my miniatures are there, as are assorted toys from Kid Robot.
This is a crop of the 'full size' version of the above image...As you can see, the camera takes pictures that are pretty fuckin' huge, so I had to degrade the quality a lot to post them on here...Else it'd take forever to load on everyone's computers. (In fact, if these still take awhile, let me know + I'll make them into an LJ cut...) It's crazy that those figures are only about 2 inches high; the pictures are bigger than the actual subjects. I don't understand cameras enough to know why that happens...haha.
Anyway... Weather permitting, today Steve and I are going to check out Takashimaya; it's a Japanese department store that has a branch in New York City. (Or 'depaato' as they said in Japanese 101...heh.) I swear, all I ever do is shop. Steve bought me an NES, but at the moment we only have one game (Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers) and the NES is refusing to acknowledge the game.
At least Penny let us borrow Kingdom Hearts II...That game's pretty fun.
God, it's so cold at this desk...It's right under the vent.
I haven't been doing very much besides going to work from 8-4 and then coming home to eat and watch tv/play ddr. Yawwwwn.
I have gotten lots of shopping accomplished at work, though. (Haha...Errr...Just kidding, company filter that's watching everything that I look at over the internet...)
Over the past 3 days, I've bought a present for Steve, a dress, a skirt, shoes, a shirt, and assorted hair accessories. I want new earrings, too, damn it ! Steve's gonna buy me fancy designer sunglasses, cos he loves me...(I hope he isn't reading this; he'll threaten to buy me "2 for $3 " sunglasses at the Christmas Tree Shoppe. )
Heh.
I guess you could call me spoiled, or a 'bad person' for not wanting cheap sunglasses...
Oh well. Not my problem. I gotta figure out a way to pay $1200 for the 'Princeton Review' GRE prep; if I don't get a good GRE score, my life is basically ruined...and you all know I suck at math. Speaking of math, I have to pass precalc this semester, or I don't graduate! Awesome, right? I finally wrote my 'statement of intent ' for graduate schools...I sent it to the professor at McGill to look at it, hopefully he can help me..(He's in Finland right now, but I hope that eventually he'll get back to me.)
I'm going to feel so old and awkward when I go back to Rutgers this fall. I really don't belong there anymore...My era is over. I should have graduated last semester, and I should be going to grad school in a month...I shouldn't even be in New Brunswick ! Oh well..I only have to feel like a super-creep for one semester, then I can sit around for 6 months trying to get my life together. I eventually...like...next spring-ish... want to go to Germany; I have this intense desire to go back to Europe, and England's too expensive...Plus, I bet I can get awesome pictures in East Berlin/The Black Forest. I'm going to make Steve go with me, too. It just wouldn't be the same by myself.
