Still deciding...

For the whole (zero) people who have been following me so far, you can see that I have done no updating in the 2.5 weeks since I started. I started and thought this would be fun, the decided it was too much work. Then I saw another blog of Munich photos (you can see I'm following it now) and decided that I DID want to attempt this foreign concept (to me) of "blogging." Then I realized they have a much better camera then me and got a little pissed off. I guess this requires some explantation; yes, I do reeeally want a better digital camera, one of those really heavy bulky ones with a great zoom and focus you can control yourself (until then, I simply can't match the quality of photo's produced in the photo/history/... blogs, but then again, I'm going to be a pharmacist, and we aren't exactly known for our art skills as a group)BUT ALSO my piece of shit camera doesn't want to cooperate with me when it dips below 10 celsius outside... and take 40 minutes in the warm indoors to improve it's demeanor. So, I can only take photo's when I turn off the flash (or auto flash) and even indoors, it still will not focus. Hell, it won't even take a blurry picture, it just sits there well I press down the button doing nothing. So, the quality of my documentation will (for the meantime) be dependent on the mood and warmth of my camera. I considered purchasing a new one since Munich seems to be a mecca for shopping off all sorts, until I realized there is no way I am going to find something for anywhere near the prices I am used to paying at home, at Costco. Yep, I now do my best to buy all electronics through Costco and so far it is working out. If I don't feel like crap later (I think I'm fighting off some sort of cold... hasn't fully developed yet, but I'm waiting) I will attempt to add some more posts with photos and video.
