I am Saving for a Digital Camera

Hmmm... I am frustrated every time I go to shopping malls and walked on by in a camera shop. When I was a kid, I really want to be a photographer but it's impossible. I bought my a camera with my own expenses when I was in high school. It was just a manual camera, Konica Centuria 10, with film on it. Now the flash had been broken and I had never fixed it since. I can only use it on daytime or outdoor. Also, I am tired of going to photo centers to have my pictures develop.

My manual camera is still alive even though I only seldom use it is because I have to buy a film and pay for it to have it develop. There are still snapshots not yet develop and the film isn't through yet. I think I took these one or two years ago.

A digital camera is very expensive at least Php 4,000.00 unlike with the manual which is Php 1,000.00 and below. The advantage of a digital camera is you can easily scan the pics you want to reject or save it on your computer and upload it to the world wide web like in your own blogs and to social networking sites.

My purpose is to take pictures when I'm travelling, the beautiful sceneries itself. I just wish somebody will give donations. Hahaha! I hope so! ^_^

Adam Lambert at AMA Performance

Adam Lambert kissed a guy on his performance at American Music Awards performance. The conservatives are in rage with it, the others adore it.

He admitted he just got carried away with the song but he never apologize. He also didn't mind if there are kids watching the show because it was already late at night. He is not a baby-sitter but a performer.

New Moon Movie on November 20

Everyone is excited for the second Twilight Saga. I never read the book unlike Harry Potter but I just seen the movie from my personal downloads. At first, I really don't know what's the story of the movie but the main actor, Robert Pattinson, I first saw him from the movie Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire where he played as the very handsome Cedric Diggory. That is the reason I get hooked with the movie.

Now, what keeps it more exciting??? For me, it's the transformation of Jacob played by Taylor Launter. He was not really that buff on the first movie. He is really hot (forgive me for saying this! Hahaha!).

Belated Happy Birthday to Me!

Yesterday was my birthday, November 10. Oh oh! I'm 21 years old now but still looks like 18 years old. Hahaha! Just kidding! I never had a party because we were a victim of akyat-bahay last week. I just bought a Goldilocks cake as a gift for myself and also a My Melody stuff toy. It was so cute. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to take a snap shot of my cake T_T because I don't have my own camera. My partner gave me a Hello Kitty stuff toy. He only spent P15 for the three tokens in World of Fun. Of course I didn't forget to go to Sto. Niño church and thanked God for the blessings, good health and nothing happened to us about the trouble we had experienced.

Ask the Editor at Merriam-Webster.com

In scribbling or writing, I always depend on Merriam-Webster.com for my vocabularies. As possible, I want to write with correct grammar even though I'm only using simple English here on my blog.

What is more interesting here is the video about Ask the Editor. The video I've seen is about discussing Affect vs. Effect. I was a little bit confused then about these words. Ooh thanks! It really helped a lot. ^_^

All Saint's Day Tradition

All Saint's Day is the day of the dead. This is the time when families gather together at cemeteries visiting their dead loved ones. Grave sites are decorated with flowers. These also includes lighting of candles and offering prayers, special foods and drinks.

Last night, I went to my boyfriend's house (again) and I witnessed their tradition which I never used to. It is called sangpit or the calling of the souls of their relatives or the souls from purgatory.

To know more about the tradition I witnessed last night, click here.

Happy Halloween!

Today is November 1 and our families are going to the cemetery to visit our loved ones and giving prayers to them. I never had the time to be online last night because I was exhausted from work and just went to bed when arrived home. Before that I went to my boyfriend's house and watched a horror movie. Here I am again screaming and screaming at the top of my lungs. I just seldom watch this kind of movie. It's really creepy. Today just want to greet you Happy All Saint's Day.
