I had 20 minutes before I had to board my flight back to Korea. I saw this really nifty looking camera, but as soon as the pretty salesgirl came over, I had to leave. I knew I’d be tempted.

I’ve been thinking about buying a camera for 6 months now. I really wanted manual functionality, but couldn’t justify buying a DSLR. I also wanted the video capabilities of a point and shoot.

Then Angelo walked over and started looking at the camera I was looking at. “Fuck” I thought. Now I’m sucked in. After the very knowledgeable salesgirl answered every single tough question we asked, I bought it.

The Samsung NV7. 7x optical zoom, 7.2 megapixels.

I love the way it looks, I love the wonderful interface. No more *clickclickclickclickclick* to change the aperture. Just slide your finger across touch sensitive buttons.

Here are the first pictures I took with it:

So I got back to Canada this past weekend, and I thought I’d have a little get together at my old school pub, The Ram in the Rye so that you could all take turns asking me “How was Korea?”

So you know, the answer is “It was fucking awesome.” I met some of the most amazing people. I had amazing experiences. It was all so amazing that I’m going back.

I’m really more interested in what YOU all are doing. I just want to see all your pretty faces again. I haven’t even talked to some of you since I’ve left. so..

Say…this Friday? 9pm? Y’wanna come? You should come. C’mooon.
