time for an upgrade

i feel pretty guilty for feeling happy that my old camera konked out. i got the SD100 5 years back, and i loved it, but my sis keeps on flaunting her new (multiple) camera(s) in front of me and i get envious.

so a few days ago, when i turned on my SD100 to take a picture with a friend, i found out that the lens no longer worked. yay! :) time to buy a new camera.

so i got this. i wanted the black, but my sis said she'd secretly swap hers with mine (she has the black) since she tainted hers with chocolate. (she always does that, she spilled coffee over her new white north face jacket. twice. once on each sleeve. on the same day.)

it's not exactly the latest model, but i love the shape, the size, all of it. i didn't need the 12MP that other models provided.

i feel a little extravagant since it IS the recession after all (but mitu tells me to keep the economy going), but at least i'm not like someone who went all kiam siap and bought a $10 for 10 mins phone plan (what a terrible plan), and within a month, ditched it for this overkill:
