We'll see you next year!

FH and I are going to my aunt's tomorrow to celebrate New Year's Eve + New Year's Day. So yeah, spending the night over there, riding a ferry and all =)

Let's all have a fun and safe celebration for the new year!

See ya in 2012!

Last picture post for the year:

Wow, waiting to get FH's Christmas gift to me was so worth all that built up excitement! OH MY GOODNESS! I can't believe he got me the Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 lens I've been wanting for months and months!


I originally thought of getting a point-and-shoot camera to bring to family get-togethers and when we go out on dates. It's such a bother to pack a bulky camera. I usually carry a smaller purse so I almost always leave the camera behind. Anyway, I thought about it more and decided that instead of camera #2, I'd rather save up for a pancake lens.


I didn't get it until the 27th and when I did, man, I was so giddy and squealing in happiness. Over the moon happy!! I'm so happy because now I can bring the camera with me anywhere and I won't be hesitant to pull it out from my bag because it's not that attention grabbing anymore. It still appears bigger than most but at least it doesn't have an extended lens. YAY!!!! PLUS the aperture is delicious! I don't have to use flash! YAY!! The only problem is that because it's so expensive, I feel like I have to use a protective/UV filter. I just hope the one I get won't cause image quality or focus problems.


Now it's time to say bye bye to all my other vintage lenses. I'm satisfied with this one (plus the kit lens of course). Oh, it's also a fixed lens so that means no zoom. It's no problem really because I noticed that I (and most other people I know) physically step away or closer to the subject to frame them properly.

I saw this on my facebook today:


Wow, so BB creams are really coming to North America huh. Hm...
They sell for $39 a tube if you want one.

I just want to let you guys know how disappointed I am with the elf brush I purchased a while back.

It sheds non-stop.


It's from their Essential line called Total Face brush. But hey, for $1, you get what you pay for. I'm throwing this out. I am done using it. Their Studio line is another story though.
