Canon Digital SLR 400D

Most of you will know that I have been wanting a Canon 400D SLR camera for a while now.

Mum put it on lay-by and started me off with $200, which was for my birthday. Luke gave me $200 to put on it as a birthday present, and I also asked people to give me money to go towards it instead of birthday present this year, and so I put all that money on the camera today. I also have been saving all my coinage in a piggy bank, and went to the bank to put that on my card so I could pay MORE off my camera.

Thanks to some money we got for organising and running a kids programme the other weekend, we were able to AFFORD TO GET IT TODAY!!!!

I am SO excited, and have been taking pictures all afternoon.

Also, tonight I ate vegemite on some naan bread- SO good!!

Lately…

Lately I’ve been learning a few things about myself and about my relationship with Luke. Lately I have also been very, very busy. I will endevour to write about the things that I’ve learnt, more this week. But I make no promises, as promises related to blogging are certainly not going so well for me right now!

If you’re missing a bit of Talia, then you can always check the podcast I was in last night!! I’m talking about Moodle, a Learning Management System, and I would love it if you left some feedback. I am feeling very blessed to have been asked to be involved, and I felt like I learnt a lot while I was there!! The best 40 minutes I’ve spent all weekend. (Not hard, as the weekend was full of RAIN, RAIN, RAIN!!).

Oh, and so you’re aware, We have deecided on laminate wood floors, which we are putting together this week, ready for my party this weekend. I will snag the photo off Aaron of the HUGE screen we played wii on last night (yay for a projector), then hopefully I will twitter it, and post it here.

No photos of my 21st really because we missing our camera. I am totally saving up for my digital SLR. Mum and Dad gave me $200 for it, and Luke gave me another $200 for it. So hopefully, if I get a bit of birthday money, and raid my piggy bank I will make it to $1000 soon.

So birthday post, and ‘things I’ve learnt’ post to come soon!
