Guess who has a new toy! Yours truly.

I must say.. I was so excited I could not sleep, and the next morning my heart was throbbing as I went to the store. Eeep!! The Canon XSi is supposed to be a great camera for amateur photographers and I can already see why. The camera’s so awesome even random pictures turn out beautiful. *grin*

Politics have never been my sort of thing, but this year’s federal elections are such a big deal, all the media attention really forces you to be a little more aware. I think that’s really great! I’ve been making a conscious effort to do my homework (ie. to watch more television), and ended up studying for the ‘wrong’ test, heh. I’ll admit that I only watched the American Vice-President debate rather than the Canadian party leaders debate..

Truth is, relative to the US elections, I almost wish it were just as easy to decide on which Canadian political party to vote for.  But I suppose our situation is a good sign that we’re not in such deep trouble, and we don’t need a complete reform in our government. In any case, I still don’t know who I’m voting for! There’s a lack of sense of hope, and instead I just feel discouraged and worried.

I thought the American debate was very interesting to watch, and found a hilariously accurate (in my opinion) flow chart of Sarah Palin’s debate strategy!
