I bought some baby pumpkins at Trader Joe’s today and drew faces on them with a permanent marker since they’re too small to carve. I’m not really into holiday decorations, but it’s fun to see the pumpkins sitting on my windowsill. I plan to procure some Christmas lights in December so that I can further liven up my room.

My friend Margot and I also had an official, albeit spur-of-the-moment, Team Bacon meeting on Saturday at 2AM. I made sure to document the experience.

Team Bacon

It’s important to note here that the toast has been fried in bacon fat.

Unfortunately, our refrigerator has appeared to stop working again. This is the third time this has happened, so my roommates and I are all pretty sick of having our groceries spoiled. It must have something to do with our power outlet and not the brand new unit they gave us. Sigh!

Toy Cameras

September 16th, 2009 at 2:30 pm

My sister graciously picked up this Holga K200N camera (with fisheye lens and flash filters!) for me at Urban Outfitters because it was on sale for $20.

I’m somewhat familiar with Lomography cameras, as I also own the Holga 135BC (BC stands for “black corners”). However, the only roll of film I’ve ever shot on that camera came out blank when I got it developed at Long’s drugs :( This time, I was a bit luckier with the K200N and successfully ended up with a few interesting photographs.

It’s a fixed focus lens, so quite a few of them came out blurry, but I’m overall satisfied with my first go. Toy cameras are fun; nevertheless, I do not understand why people will drop more than $20 on them. That plus the cost of film and processing certainly adds up! I mean, if you’re going to spend that much, at least get a camera that has a real viewfinder
