All I need


I am in love. It was pure, simple and unadulterated. It was love at first sight. There's something about grace, style, character and a touch of vintage that appeals to me every single time. Even though I have a tendency to fall in love every 5 minutes, nailing the one at first glance comes rare and so when Yas recommended that I should go check him out, I did. And I trust Yas, because the dude is more experienced than I can ever wish for and he has good taste.

I present you, my current obsession:







Isn't it gorgeous? I had no idea Leica released a digital series, and the only camera that holds their lens would be the Panasonic. Simple yet classy. Sinfully Leica. I just can't get enough of the feel of this one.

And then of course there were initial mpulsive moments to purchase the following:


Canon being the first option had the Leica not come into the picture. I've been maintaining the Olympus SLR and seriously, the amount of money I've wasted could have been used to get a decent digicam and a dlsr respectively. Stubborn bastard. He's at Adelphi now and I swear that's the last investment. Although I have to admit, Oli is gorgeous with a touch of old school that is so lacking in cameras now.

So yeah. I'm never one to spend on electronics but since I've been travelling quite a bit it'd be great to invest in a good camera. I know I'll be paying twice as much for the red logo, but erm... I'm a woman if that means anything. Aesthetics gotta come first. It is the rolls royce of cameras after all and this girl deserves the best. :)

Now with all the Hari Raya angpows, brother's wedding, trips, birthdays, new wadrobe, christmas shopping I can safely say I am getting broke. I better close some more new deals pretty soon. It was a blessing Radiohead was sold out. Maybe not. I could have been in Tokyo watching them. Today. Arrgh, yucks! How my heart bleeds! Now if only I could. 2008 would have been complete.

Ah well.
