GOING DIGITAL

so, i finally got a new digicam...yehey!!!!it has been a dream for so long that when i had one i didn't know what to do with it. it sat on my table for days like an aching appendix. i knew it was there but i was denying its existence precisely because i didn't know what to do with it at first. it took days before i finally gathered enogh courage to tell myself "ok, digicams are for taking pictures, daggumit. take one for chrissakes!". so one sunday morning i went to sto. nino basilica and took a few hotos. i still had a hard time taking in the fact that i actually own one so i took like 10 photos from the trip. not bad i thought. for one, i didn't wanna look like a lost tourist in cebu, not to mention colon. secondly, i also definitely didn't want to look like the koreans who were flashing their smiles and V-signs all over the basilica while the priest is proclaiming the mystery of faith. third, i didn't take a bath when i went there. i'd like to think the trip was spur of the moment. something that wakes you up at dawn and gives you that feeling " this is the day i'm gonna use my camera!". without a bath, i certainly didn't wanna draw attention among the churchgoers.

so here are the first photos i took...hope u like 'em..
