Peechur, peechur!
I was browsing through EKKAMAI, my external HD, when I realized I’ve taken a lot of pictures already. About 25% of my 250GB storage are photos I took since 2006. That’s a lot! I guess I should do a back-up soon enough because you’ll never know when my HD would go bonkers.
And then I realized again I’ve got a handful of cameras. I’ve got five actually. I started with a digicam, then the DSLR, and then the toy cameras I seldom use now.
Canon IXUS 60. I bought this for P 16,000 way back in July 2006 for my birthday. It was my first. I could be seen holding this almost everyday for about two years. I took pictures of almost every event, everyone, and everything I found interesting. It has been with me through thick and thin. I call this digital camera “Gas” because three days after I got it, it was scratched already— gasgas-ed. :p

Nikon D40 DSLR. I wanted to get the D40x but I found a good deal over at eBay. I bought this April 2008. The Canon IXUS 60 was still working perfectly fine but I thought of becoming serious with photography so I thought it was time to get a DSLR. Just like Gas, the D40 which I named “Blade” is always used. Every Sunday, I’d bring it to church to take photos of the people, the service, and more random stuff. I just didn’t have the time to take photography classes because of work and ministry. I still don’t know how to use that cam except for the basic functions simply because I’m too lazy to read the manual and tinker with it.

VIVITAR ULTRA WIDE AND SLIM. One of the three toy cameras I own. I have only used this once. Why, I haven’t even finished that one roll of film.

HOLGA 120N. My lomo cam! I already used a few rolls but I haven’t had them processed yet even after one year. I first brought this to Bangkok. I brought this to Singapore and Hong Kong too but wasn’t able to use it. I forgot why. Right now, the Holga cam is sitting on my computer table as a decor.

HOLGA BABY 110 Toy Camera. I’ve got the pink one! I find this so cute and easy to use. I thought I broke it when we were in Thailand but glad I was able to fix it. Like the Holga 120N and the Vivitar’s films, I haven’t gotten the rolls I’ve used processed.
One of these days, I will have the film rolls processed. When? Certainly before I give birth. After that, I might sell these three toy cameras because I don’t always use them.
If I have the money to buy new one, I only have two cameras in mind: a Canon D10 and a Fujifilm Instax Mini 7S. I fell in love with the latter when I saw Riz’s. It’s similar to a Polaroid cam. Using it can be a bit expensive but I think it’s fun to actually see the photo slowly appear right before your eyes. About the Canon D10, well, I’d like to have a waterproof digital camera. Something that could be very handy especially when Noah comes.

My Christmas gift to my husband. Parating pa lang. Malapit-lapit na. 
All I Want for Christmaaaas..is You!

I want a brown Acer Aspire One for Christmas. It’s just a WANT not a NEED so I don’t expect my husband to surprise me with this one. Besides, I got the iPhone from him already last month. (Update: NO was his answer.)
And yeah, I am not expecting anything from him or from anybody this year but I think it would be nice if I post my Christmas wishlist. I am still trying to finish my birthday wishlist last year and this year so I’ll just add a FEW. Hehehe.
Again, this is just a WISHLIST so allow me. Vicky Morales, I hope you’re reading these. Hehe.
