polaroid-happy

without comments

i have been eyeing a polaroid i-zone since cheap photography interested me, but i didnt find the small prints cute.

i got myself a polaroid joycam instead.

pegged at just above P600, brand new, with 1 year warranty, and a 10-shot cartridge for P199, i guess it was a good deal. pictures arent in normal square-format, but are set in the typical landscape mode. at least you can do double exposures, and experiment; read somewhere that people use a q-tip to intentionally smudge the print while its self-developing.

i started bringing along my Holga again. still havent picked up the Lubi fron Sir Jay. cant find the time.

i decided to stop bringing the Smena-8M, since i want to pair it with a Blik RF (the accessory would enable me to have a semblance of a coupled viewfinder; i determine the distance via the RF, and set it manually with the camera itself). determining distance takes much effort from me.

and the taxi i rode on to work was playing obscure, and really old synth-driven new wave songs.

the job interview with another call center went off clean, except that they required one-year experience management experience for the position im applying for.

then i get some feedback from our operations team manager that they’d need people for the position i want, since a lot of people there are resigning.

oh crap.

grabbed myself a bundle of blank cdrs and a CD wallet, with a 200-cd capacity before going back to the office. this will be a long work-night.
