a shot

Being anal when it comes to buying new products is such a pain, you find fault with every product you look at and then you end with no options. This happened to me when i was looking for a new phone, and when i eventually bought one, it turned out to be a not so fantastic phone, and after all that researching i did looking for new phones. Well I am going through this process again searching for a new digital camera because it seems like time for a new one, and also i have had my canon for 4 years and it has served me pretty well. Anywho, everytime i settle on a camera that i want, it is either not sold in Australia or it is too expensive. But i have decided on one camera but i am leaning towards not buying it, because when you use the flash, the lens obscures the sides. I know i should be studying but it is bugging me that i have not settled on a camera yet. i have a few models in mind, so i think i am going to the store to try them out. But i hate going into the store and bothering the sales person when i think i won't even be purchasing the camera, or i would feel forced to buy the camera. i guess its the only way i can tell if the camera is right for me, anywho these are my options, i am really leaning towards the pentax one but i already have a pentax slr and there hasn't been many reviews about this camera, but i do like the colour.
pentax rz10
canon powershot s95

sony hx5v

sony wx1

panasonic tz10
I might like to mention that half of these are out of my price range, but there's really no rush to buy the camera. i just have to buy it before march/Soundwave. So hopefully i can expect some price dropping because there's always new technology coming out. Also if anyone has an opinion to which one i should choose, please help me. 

I have been really slacking off studying even if my exam is literally tomorrow. i feel like i know the material well enough but then i get stressed out when i am trying to recall the material and i feel like i cannot remember anything. oh well i have all day tomorrow to study, so i'm really not worried. Just trying to convince myself that i really do remember the material and that my "worriedness about not remembering anything" is impeding my recalling abilities. 
i feel like i need to get out of the house, all i have been is studying, eating, napping and catching up on tv shows, its not my fault my brother just got a better internet deal, very bad bad timing, i have downloaded so many tv shows. 

Oh yeah i forgot to mention, i ended up going to my work place on thursday, and after an hour of wandering around and sitting outside the store, i finally worked up the courage to go inside. i felt so nervous, it was kinda the feeling i get before an exam that i haven't really studied for, i kinda felt sick. i hate socially awkward situations and because i haven't been in my workplace for a year. But i have done it and i still have my casual job which is good and means i can refresh my bank balance. so i guess that's settled and i don't really have to worry anymore, but i kinda still am, because i said i can work from the 16th of Nov onwards, meaning excluding that day, but i think my boss took it as i can start working on that day, and i was too nervous to correct that so now i am hoping so hard that i do not have work on that day, i mean i did say after the 16th. oh dear, why can't i handle myself better???

Oh yeah Happy Halloween!!!

Love Squealer.
