DSLR plans

I want to buy a DSLR!!!

I'm still waiting for that perfect timing. By that time, I'll probably purchase another domain for myself in order to post more pictures.

Nikon seems like a good brand. Only if I can find a good price for it.

2009 Goals

Somehow, I was able to achieve my goals last year that's why it's such a nice feeling that when looking back, you were able to get the things that you initially thought you couldn't get. That's why I'm being a little braver now in writing my new goals this year.

By The End of 2009

• DSLR
  
• Laptop
• Trip Outside the Philippines
  
• Pay Off my Old School Debts

Dunno if I can achieve them still, but with the right mindset, I know I'll be able to do so.

Taken while we were waiting for our Christmas party to start. They have a lot of lamps like this, I just thought of it as something weird at first due to its position. But that's just part of the design.

kids and fountain

Still in Greenbelt

They also have a fountain at the center. It's nice cause a lot of kids usually play with the water, like I always did when I was also a kid.

Park in Greenbelt

I love this place! It's clean and it looks homey. hehe. Really, I like the trees, there are different shops nearby (coffee and food) that you can just eat and chill.

Weird but I like it. hehe.

paid off my Olympus SW790!

I paid off my camera! I'm so happy that after 9 months of 0% interest, I'm finally free of paying every month for my Olympus SW790 baby.

I'm also glad that I've been receiving compliments from people with the different pictures that I took of this waterproof camera. Although in this blog, I did do some minor editing, cropping and sharpening, I'm glad that it's not anything major.

I need to get my camera cleaned though, I haven't had it checked since my trip in Siargao. However, I'm afraid that if I have it cleaned, then it wouldn't be restored as compact as it was first bought. I'm still thinking twice. But I know I need to have it cleaned cause it's still under warranty. I still have around 3 months for my warranty to be over and definitely, I don't want to pay extra.

I was a bit hesitant cause I've been debating whether I should buy this or the Pentax W30 since they're both waterproof. I've been able to create an entry out of it - Olympus SW 790 vs Pentax w30. But since I started getting those compliments (which is the time when i just purchased it), I knew I made the right decision.

Now that I have a point-and-shoot camera, I'm now wanting to buy a Professional DSLR. But I know that'll be far off for now since I'm still on a tight budget cause I'm going back to school. I need to update my accounts which are really big.

Oh well, let's hope I can get a Pro DSLR soon.

Christmas is in the air. I took this shot in Glorietta in Manila. One of the shops outside had this as their decoration. It was big that it covered one part of the glass pane. Nice isn't it? Makes you feel the warmth of the season.

Binondo Church

There was a wedding going on, I took a snapshot of a father and his kid.

After we went to Divisoria (a shopping district well-known for cheap finds), we walked to Binondo Church and took a picture of the place.

rising over the building

Ortigas

Was at a building in Manila (Ortigas Building) for a business trip and the first thing that caught my eye when the sun was just rising was the sun (of course). It blended well with the tainted glass of the building. I couldn't help but take a few snapshots in order to capture the moment.

Still in the process of collecting my photos and posting new ones. I spent around 3 weeks in Manila that's why I couldn't update this site as well as my other blogs. Anyway, I hope I can catch up fast as it seems that I'm all caught up with my posts.

We'll see.
