Aha~
I wrote last week about not how lovely life is without hard work and responsibility. I couldn’t understand any need for investments and real jobs.
This week, I have discovered one reason. *Here*. Pretty, pretty camera that does lots of clever things.
I spend lots of my time outdoors with my camera in hand, photographing our days as they pass. More and more, I am finding our lovely little ixus just doesn’t seem to be able to see things the same way I do.
I know I am no highly skilled photographer, but I do happen to have the time to learn and I think I am slowly improving. I spend most of my time when I am indoors browsing Flickr, RedBubble and Daily Dose of Imagery, enviously admiring others’ skills. I want to be able to do this, and this, and this too.
So, basically, now that I have no real job and lots of free time, I have developed a hobby. Now that I have lots of free time, and no real job, I can’t afford to develop this hobby. EEegh. It doesn’t seem at all fair.
I think the only possible solution is for Patrick to either get himself a Canon sponsorship, or to go out and get a job!

Hey Sal, haven’t heard from you in ages but it sounds like Tokyo is treating you well! When are you moving back to China? If you’re still there next year I might try and visit you on my summer break or something. I’m spending next year at a Beijing university, extremely exciting.
Also, I just noticed your post about the camera. Before you go run and buy the wonderful Canon 30D, I’d suggest the 350D (mine) or the newer 400D, even fancier with more wonderful things.
Send me an email sometime and we can try and work something out for next year,
Talk to you soon,
Kate (Tanner - just in case you weren’t sure.)
