She lives!
i. tadaima, land of the living!
After hell week which was capped by today's pitch, I can finally relax and enjoy my life again. The past few work days have been truly tedious. It was as if all our clients conspired to make things difficult by all having deadlines early this week. To add to the stress, we had a major pitch coming up so it all made for a messy, albeit fun week. Somehow, while everything was going on at a hellish pace, we still managed to have a few laughs in between deadlines.
So despite all the work and braindead moments this past week, I can still say I love my job. And with a real smile even.
ii. must catch up with my online life
And it looks like I have tons of LJ posts to catch up with, as well as bentolunch entries. I was planning to take a short hiatus from kitchencow because my IXUS II broke down last Friday, as I was shooting my food. Luckily though, I was able to borrow my cousin's spare digicam, so I may start bento blogging again on Friday--free lunch tomorrow so no bento.
iii. new camera
And since it's likely that my camera might be expensive to fix, it may be time to buy a new one. Currently torn between the S3 and a Digital Rebel. Points go to the S3 for price and relative ease of use since it still is a point and shoot. The DSLR screams pretty pretty camera though.
Sigh. Yes, I'm trying not to think about the cost, but if I do buy, it'll probably mean I have to put my DS Lite desires go to the backseat. Of course, if it happens that I can have my IXUS repaired for less than 3k, I'll just opt for that instead.
iv. ds lite love
I've been reading up on flash cartridges and I'm wanting a DS Lite even more. A G6 flash cart can actually let me play Avi-DivX files on a DS lite. How cool is that?! One thing which has me sticking to my Nano versus upgrading to an Ipod Video is the lack of divX support, hence the attractiveness of a DS Lite + G6 flash cart right now. Sigh. To have money to waste on little gadgetry.
v. to do list
- Catch up on FList backlog
- Check out the communities I belong to for new posts
- Watch anime / dorama / tv series
- Catch up on my downloads
- Start work on Project Tama-chan Pinky Mod
- Answer memes I've been wanting to
- Do khursten's wish list meme (this stands out from the other memes so it deserves a special slot
- Figure out what to get my mom for her birthday
- Bring Ixus to Canon repair center
- Update multiply account, especially post pictures taken at "unidentified beach" mentioned in a previous f-locked post.
- Drag padpad to Greenhills to canvass DS Lite and flash cart prices. Cheapest I've seen so far is the 8.5k DS Lite from Data Blitz. Anyone know of cheaper prices? I'm considering ordering from Amazon so that's less than 7k but that means I'll have to wait until my Aunt comes here in January before I can get it. I'm wondering whether I can hold out.
- Make new icons
- Catch up on sleep! Yeah, right.
