This event in my life definitely needs to be documented! So I was planning to buy a car… a small second hand car or a low-budget new one. Instead what my parents marketed was a “DSLR which you have been yearning for a year!” I don’t know at what time of the conversation I got convinced… But I did. I think I thought to myself a bird in hand (DSLR) is better than 2 birds in the dream (DSLR and Car.)

So this Saturday my mom and I went to pick up my DSLR. It was all planned in the head… I went to the shop and I said one Canon 450D. I said it as if I wanted one cheese burger…

I got the camera.. did all the paper work… paid… and walked out of the shop. I did not feel anything… nothing at all… I thought I would be jumping with joy and would do all that jazz… but nope… nothing of that sort happened. Then we hailed a cab and I took out my cam to click a few pics. As soon as I clicked the first picture I knew what I had… and why I yearned for it for over a year.

I started seeing everything in frames and shades once again!

I clicked random stuff… crows, rats, leaves, hats, shoes… Thank god the randomness in life is back!

Thanks mom n dad for the awesome pre-diwali gift!
