Wait... keep waiting...
Tuesday, June 07, 2005

Time passes by vigorously just like the flow of the red sea,
Every second seems so consumptious and flatterning,
Every minute my pulse stuttering upon anxiously,
Every hour i check my wrecked old clock

Oh boy, i wish i could just be like Moses
Setting the sea aside, cross the path straight
Forget bout the wait on the other side
On the other side, of the damn CAMERA I ORDERED!!!

I am annoyed.. anxious.. and again worried.. bout the camera i bought over via ebay last tuesday night.. The company sent me an email and informed me that.. the camera has been shipped on Wednesday.. and should be arrived by monday.. (from Melb to Adelaide only.. not so far away) Therefore.. i've been waiting... since then.. i m bit worried.. that something happen to my future partner that will screen down everything around me that's worthy for him(i decided that it should be a he) to take a look and memorize the incident down.

Therefore.. i m really scared.. what if something happen to this future partner of mine?
Like being kidnapped by somebody? rob? or even rape??!! NOOOOOOOO
Anyway.. before i go any further.. i shall describe my partner here abit..
his formal name shud b Dimage z3, surname Minolta, middlename konica

yea.. i know.. it looks pretty expensive.. and indeed it is expensive.. in a way.. however.. i managed to get it off from an auction in ebay and i got it cheap..
according to some crappy reviews.. the RRP should be around 699-7++ AUD .. that's crazy.. but i got it for 369AUD plus postage.. that's a pretty good bargain.. i've been watching the auction acts goin on for awhile.. but lucky me, this company seems to stock up alot of that model.. and they couldnt sell it off with the normal path.. so they came up with the auction idea.. this is the 4th one i attempted.. and it came out cheap (tho.. i had to sacrifice all my extra pocket money and money that i've earned from somewhere.. somehow.. shhhh.... meet me behind the alley, tonight, 3am, sharp!!.. shhhh)

When u gotten something cheap and valuable and not suppose to be in any logical way.. u tends to think.. hmm.. am i really lucky? or are there any conspiracies behind all these?
I had a conversation with one of my frens that pretty 'pro' or rather.. experienced in ebay trading.. he told me that.. in countries like UK,US, and AUS, u often managed to get cheaper stocks via ebay.. becoz certain medium scale trading company have gotten their stocks in some other countries that suck less taxes on the goods or country where the manufacturer located.. so from that point, they often managed to bring up a better price (excluding the postage and insurance). So after knowing that, what left is the price of the postage services.. However.. even after my own calculation, the price IS still relatively way cheaper than the RRP over here.. therefore i decided to get it

Now, you might wana ask me.. these questions.. such as
1) Is photography a hobby of yours?
2) Are you planning to go pro or something?
3) Are you goin to spend all your times in shooting photos? since u dumped in so much money in it?
4) Do you think it is worthy enough for that amount of cash?

grr.. firstly, i deny that photography is a hobby of mine, it is not.. clearly not, to me.. shooting photo is just an artistic way of screening down and keeping down memories with concrete outcomes.. therefore.. it;s more than just a hobby, it is part of life, and i never own a camera before.. as in.. my own camera.. no..that's y i m craving for one.. and i m getting one!

second, you neednt to be a pro or a semi-pro to own a camera like that, it is just like.. u no need to be a japanese to eat japanese food.. (wait.. bad attempt).. er, how bout this, you no need to be a lawyer to be familiar with law and it's not neccesary for you to be filthy rich in order to own a sport car. The point i want to make here is.. no matter whether u are up to the par of the object you just obtain or what.. as long as u willing to be, or surely to be matching it in the future.. it's alright. People might say that it's still early for you to use this, but if i m comfortable with the spent, the experience, the usage, and the efforts i m willing to put in, why are you making a fuss? when i am suppose to be the person who;'s goin to use it, not u?! (and trust me.. i discussed with my other alter egos several times before i made that decision..so.. it's clearly a democratic victory)

i think i accidenntally inclueded and answered q4 up there..so i shall focused on the third question. Ok, allow me to say this in order to answer that question, anyone can eat up 10 cows, but just not in one day. I m saying here that, i m willing to entrust my partner a 15 years contract (at least) of pairing up with me to screen beautiful stuffs that are worthy for (such as butterflies, flowers, bees, and giraffes, etc), and 369aud for 15 years of good memories retrival cues.. that;s not at all a bad deal to me.

Anyway, let's pray with me that, teddy will be safe from harm and come to me in one perfect piece ASAP, as i m really getting up my head with the wait!

p.s- i decided to rename him, coz i dun wanna call him z3 or dimage, one sounded like some motorcycle, while the other sounds just like... an ordinary camera.. teddy is much unique and a nicer sounding for a partner.
