when did it become fashionable to stab a knife in your significant other's back and twist it enthusiastically to the rhythm of horrible elevator music?

..ok the elevator music bit was random but you get the idea.



i dont think i've felt so betrayed in all my life.
putting trust in someone suddenly seems like an idiotic practice.

I have always said I'll put up with a lot, but hold a zero-tolerance policy for cheating.

I just never thought that it would come to that.

Here's to 2009 beginning with an ending.

Alright guys.

Dilemma.

I'm a Canon chick. always have been. I currently shoot with a rebel, and i've absolutely loved it. I have a powershot somethingorother (here i claim i love canon yet can't remember their model numbers. tsk.) that has gotten me some pretty sharp shots in difficult situations. i even have a canon printer staring back at me as i type this.

BUT.

i'm currently in university studying photography, and they require Nikon.


So.

I'm making the switch.

Do i need to be frightened? I'm upping to the D300, which is a HUGE difference i've been told, and i held one for 2.3 milliseconds and it was just so pretty... i was pretty sure that i was converted to the dark side, but my prof today said he really wasn't a fan of nikon even though he recommended it - "Simplicity." and its true. anyone who's anyone uses nikon, or so i'm told. But he prefers canon, better colour. even though he owns... bah dum bum... a D300 himself.


Basically I'd love to know what I'm up against.

I definitely need to rob a bank to afford all that i need for this course... and ideas on cheap money savers too??

fwah.

Of two things I am sure about myself:
1. I am in love with brick. And take pictures against it any chance I get.
2. I am currently OBSESSED with textures. Obsessed.

This too shall pass.

New year, new blog.

And brand-spanking new header!!! woooo!


Hopefully everyone's new year's eve went over smoothly.
I spent it in bed, taking out stocks in kleenex and tylenol cold and watching Burn After Reading.

Brad Pitt attempting to be someone other than Brad Pitt... definitely the highlight.
