Hunting For A Memory Device...

It dawn on me when I was randomly browsing IT gadgets...Then saw those digital cameras and camcorders for sale...

Thinking about it, I've never owned (To be more accurate, my family never did) a camera in my life. All the photos I've taken so far are by others, be it relatives or friends or random photographers.

Gatherings, graduation ceremonies, parties, outings, visit to shows and events, get-together, the list goes on and on. I don't even have a record of them.

Aside from a couple of childhood 'pics', I almost didn't have any photos of myself from like 8 years old onwards... to about 16 years old. It's like totally blank. It's a white piece of paper. OK, I did have those yearly class photos where they got some random guy to take... and you had to pay $8 for it. But that's about it.

Go on to Poly also the same: had one class photo... and one graduation photo. Full stop.

LOL... so pathetic leh... say out also throw face. Recently want to find some old photos also like digging grave...

The only "device" I have to find back the past are the memories buried deep in my head. Bits and pieces, very vague and jumbled up. I can't even remember clearly the faces or places that I've spent years with and in.

So that brings me to my point (To tell the truth, it's just justification for me to spend) - I want to buy a digital camera!

I think it's perhaps one of the biggest regret in my life. Didn't get a camera earlier... and didn't start writing a diary sooner - else I would have like 10 years of photos and stories to read through by now... Haha... the feeling would be song I think. If only I could turn back the clock...

Hey wait. Thinking about it, I wouldn't ever want to turn back the clock. Cause that means I have to undergo another 1 year of shit which I just went through... Not worth it lah...

Humph Humph... anyway~

It's NEVER TOO LATE TO START!

I've sort of begin doing a little bit of 'research' into this. Picked out a few viable choices that are within my budget.

Basically, I want one that's portable and compact and easy to use. Don't need to be too 'chim' cause I'm not some professional photographer anyway. I don't need some horrifically advanced features. Best is if it has exceptional zoom... so can take pictures of my princesses even when they're far away~

Now just look look only... most probably will 'hoot' one at Sitex 2007~
