On Tuesday I finally decided I was ready to grow up (
) and open a checking account, which made it much easier to FINALLY BUY A CAMERA. I've only been talking about buying myself a digital camera for the last two years now... so I finally went for it. I got a Nikon coolpix 4800. It ain't a Digital Rebel or anything, but it is a nice piece of equipment. Huzzah!
I haven't had much time to play around with it tonight, because tomorrow I'm heading to Boston for the weekend and I need to get my shit together. (Hey Kayla, can you guess who I'm going to see?) BUT I did manage to find a few minutes to fool around with the settings and snap a few shots. I just couldn't help myself. Because 1. I'm so excited to have a camera finally and 2. I'm always excited to take pictures of myself. Behold:
Also before I go, can I just say that I went to a dance class yesterday, for the first time in several months, and it felt amazing. I felt happy with my body for the first time in weeks. And I left the studio feeling totally saucy and ready for some fun. So today I was camera shopping at a store where I'm friends with a bunch of the staff. Now this one employee has made me swoon since the moment I met him; but in the past I've felt intimidated around him, and after seeing him my tradition has been to kick myself for all the stupid things I said, the lack of social graces, the missed oppotunities, et cetera an so forth. But after I purchased my camera, I stopped by his desk to say hello... and ended up strutting out of the store with his number in my pocket. And it was his suggestion. Will he actually call me? I'm doubtful. But it sure did feel good to have that one moment of glory, knowing I was cute and witty and charming enough that I was able to catch his eye for just a second. Does this girl love attention, or what?
So the country is for shit, the world is falling apart, economics, politics, religion, life, it's all incredibly depressing, yadda yadda yadda... I don't care; today, I love my life. I feel awesome. And now I will stop yammering about myself... you know, until next time. Humor me, guys. This is my journal, after all.
