A PC Fair and a love story~

Well, if you’ve been reading my blogsite for a while by now, you’d probably know I hadn’t have such a good memory left from the previous fair. This time, it’s the second PC Fair in KL, and nonetheless, I was there, despite the heartaches and -breaks…

 

This time, B & I didn’t intend to buy anything, were just trying to keep ourselves updated with the current price of the gizmos and stuff. So, we skimmed through those booths and stalls comparably fast this time. Until, B drag me to one side, pointing at a big plasma screen. It read “Win a Sony NEX 3 by telling us what’s so special about it and how it enchances the photo taking experiece”. All I see is the most beautiful machine there, waiting for an owner. I’ve never, and I mean NEVER, believe in these promotional stunt, because no one EVER wins…But still, I participated anyway, partly because I’d do anything for a NEX 3 and somewhere in the far corner of my mind, urging myself to challenge the odds.

 

And so, I type in what I thought about it, and with it behind my mind, we left the fair. It’s Sakae Sushi for lunch later on, and boy, I am outdated! They actually have a hot water tap at every table, just so you don’t need to wave down a busy, annoyed waitress for a green tea refill! Oh, did I mention, you can order your food directly from a computer beside your table??? How convenient is that?! Oh, and with the conveyor of sushi going around, I practically wanted to eat everything! Can you feel that I’m all hyped up about it? LOL…

This ‘mouse’ was too big for the hole…I’m guessing too much sushi?? ^^

Hello~ assignments…Dear classmates, you feel the heat? LOL

 

After lunch, we walked around KLCC for a bit, B stopped by the usual Sony Centre (he always walk into gadget store…it’s like how I always walk into Padini or something…) and I immediately made a bee-line for the NEX camera counter…I grab hold of the NEX 3 like a hungry lion, despite the other people hanging around the area. LOL. And I just toyed with it for a full 15 minutes. The sales person wanted to attend to me, but then he’d given up, probably I seem to be of no need for assistance. And with unwilling heart, we left the shop and moved on….Oh, did I mention that I almost died when I saw a girl holding a NEX 3 camera right outside the convention centre…I squeezed B’s palm so hard that I swear if B’s hand breathes, I’d suffocated it by then.

I remember when I was talking picture of this with my faithful Canon, I was thinking “how I wish I could just go home with one of these?” …

… and I remember myself looking back when I was on my way out, hoping to catch a sight of the cashier counter, looking for someone purchasing a NEX as well, just so I can imagine what it feels like to bring one home…pity, isn’t it?

 

Eventually, the day rolled by and there was I, back to school for another blue Monday…. “wait!!! where’s the love story??” you asked? Well, read on~ ^^

 

Sitting in the cafeteria in the morning, while waiting for class to start at 8am, I went online to burn some boredom and time. Oh, why not just take a look at the winner of NEX 3, I thought..At least I’ll know which lucky fella won it, whom of which wouldn’t never be me…And so, I loaded the page, and right before it finished loading, the page blinked for a fraction of a second and to my surprise, I saw my name on that page!!!! I hold myself down to the seat and waited for it to display the whole page…And I saw a big NEX 3 picture (a beautiful, sleek black NEX 3, by the way) and my name on it!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Here’s the love story~ I fell in love with a camera, namely NEX 3 three weeks ago, when it was first put on display in Timesquare and now, it’s cuddling safe and sound in my arm! This can NOT be a love story more worth telling…I still couldn’t believe this was true, I got really REALLY lucky…

Here' you go, my new love…*wink wink*

One happy family : B & I, doco-mon, Canon and Nex baby…LOL…I am losing it, ain’t I?

 

Well, this PC Fair certainly didn’t break my heart for a change…And just to make it clear, my good old Canon is still here, lovely as usual ( did I personalise my every camera?? man, I AM losing it…)  but here’s the thing…With Canon, I can capture pictures of object being in their most beautiful state, and with NEX 3, I get to present my story of the object…Canon and NEX for me, is like make-up artist and a good story-teller, one makes the most beautiful out of people while the other tells the most amazing story of people, and sometimes, story of himself too…I am truly blessed… ^^

 

I’ll put up some pictures captured with NEX 3 later on, and until then, tata~

With love,

KC
