I want a nice macro lens...
but that isn’t going to be cheap so it’ll mean a lot of research and a lot of money saving :(. I’ll start after Chinese New Years.

Near Sighted: a mesmerizing 3 minutes of macro video (via Coudal)
My fascination with macro is brought to a higher level by motion and music. Breathtaking… really.

Hmm.. Bones...
I own Season 1-3. Should I buy Season 4 at $26.99 (cheaper than most stores) now or wait ‘til Season 5 comes out and hope for a price drop on Season 4?

i’m in the u.s. and i met canadians once and they were like “well we have bagged milk” and i was like :OOO DO WANT
MILK, IN A BAG EXISTS? 0.0

Actually.. I had those in the U.S. when I was in elementary school. They’re a lot of fun unless you failed at poking through.. then it just gets messy.

Burning in my S4s... 90+ hours to go... probably...
Anyways, burning in headphones. Is it really a proven method of breaking in or just a psychological effect from you expecting it to be better? I’ll know after 4 days.
So far.. I’m expecting a bit more from them because it’s a bit muddled. Funny, because when I first used them it was pretty nice and then all of a sudden the bass became muddled and the rest became muddled....
I got the $80 headphones...
…now I gotta break them in for 10-30 hours and decide whether or not to keep them.

Typical Grandpa II
Note: The conversation is entirely in Chinese. I translated it.

*I went downstairs to ask about a camera lens he has*
Grandpa: Hey Eileen, I want you to search for a camera for me on a US site.
*searches and finds it on Amazon*
Grandpa: What's the price?
Me: $398.95
Grandpa: Really? That means in Yuan it's... it's cheaper than in China. I've been waiting for the price for this camera to drop for a while but it never did. Can you do me a favor?
Me: What?
Grandpa: Buy it for me. I don't want your mom to know because I just recently bought a camera, but you know how it is. Professional photographers usually have a backup camera in case their main camera breaks down. I'll pay you back.
Me: It's really expensive...
Grandpa: Don't worry about it. I'll pay you back. How long does shipping take?
Me: Around a week or so... Do you want me to send it back to my college address so mom won't know?
Grandpa: Then it's going to take over a month for you to get it to me. No.
Me: Won't mom find out if I send it here?
Grandpa: No. I'll keep careful watch and we won't open your packages.
Me: Okay then...
Grandpa: Thanks.

*walks into grandpa's office in the garage and hears French music*
Me: Ehh.. You listen to French music now?
Grandpa: It's not French.
Me: That's weird... is it Spanish then?
Grandpa: No.
Me: Then what language is it?
Grandpa: Japanese.
Me: I know it's not Japanese.
Grandpa: Well I downloaded it off of a Japanese site.
Everytime I think that I have the better gadgets...
they manage to trump me in every way. What makes me even sadder is that my grandpa is the one who is doing the trumping. I envy. Let me borrow please.
