Ok, just more proof how awesome my new camera's macro setting is!! I got this bracelet last week at H&M and am saving it for my trip! I love the design on it. Funnily enough, I noticed it on a co-worker at school yesterday! She's pretty stylish, so I felt justified in my purchase.
Here are just a few of the new things I've bought recently at H&M and Kohls (giftcard!) for the trip. I laid out a few outfits to see how things went together. I'm very excited about how cute some of them look!
It's been such lovely weather that I've been able to turn off the air conditioning and open up the windows and balcony door. It looked a little darker, but my camera really came through and captured the remaining light of the evening!
It's awesome!! The lens was maybe a centimeter away from the keyboard when I took this with brand new camera!! Woo! It's a Canon Powershot SX110IS. Basically it's an upgrade in features and megapixels from my other Canon, but smaller with a bigger screen! There are a couple things I miss- mainly the moveable screen so I can flip it around for self portraits. But, I think the fact that it's a 9 megapixel vs. 5 mega pixel camera will make up for that!
I took this self portrait with my new cell phone using a mirror in my classroom to compose the shot! This is one of the (reasonably priced!) spoils I got last night at Shecky's. It's solid silver of course. It's hard to see in this photo because of the poor color quality, but I think it's really pretty! It will definitely be in my luggage to wear in England this summer.
This is my new phone! Yea!! It has loads of cool features (including a touch screen menu on the front part of the flip that you see there) and even a 2gb mini disc in it to save photos, etc on! I'm so glad I won't have to keep deleting every text since I only have space for one on the old phone. The flip joint also broke and I could see the wires inside. I figured it'd be best to go ahead and upgrade while I could still retrieve my information on the old phone. And for about an hour, I seriously was considering getting the iphone since they had a deal going. But in the end, I made the wise decision (financially) to go for this Nokia. I'm happy. It does what I need it to. Plus I have my ipod touch that does everything else!
I ordered these on Tuesday maybe? They shipped Wednesday and arrived Saturday!! Woot! I used the free super saver shipping option, too (supposedly the slow boat shipping). I'm very impressed and of course ecstatic to have my new stuff! The book looks good so far and the ipod case is working very well! Looks sharp.
I had planned on taking a photo of the beautiful "snow day" we had today (no snow to be seen once I got out and about this afternoon...) but I was already on my way to work when I tried to take the photo and the camera reminded me I'd forgotten to replace the memory card. Ah well. I got this new shirt at the shop tonight however (woot for employee discount!) It's a bit wrinkled from being folded up in the bag, but you get the idea. It's so cute and I can't wait till it's warm again! I have several skirts it will look so cute with! Lole is the cute, casual line we carry in the shop. I love their clothes and am already eyeing a couple of other pieces. I have to act quickly because the normal person sizes sell out quickly.
I've only had it for a few hours, and already I'm totally in love! It's so fun. I'm going to be very selective about apps I add. I've done the facebook app and activated the nike+ that is included! I already synched it to my current sensor! Woohoo! I uploaded a few photos (from Europe last year) and the good music I have on my current laptop. I guess I will work on uploading more later. Totally worth the 4 hours of tutoring. :)
