Well I'm pretty stumped. I have 2 little siblings that believe in Santa and my mom is telling me I need to make a Christmas list for my self as well. What should I ask for? I have nothing in mind though there's probally some shit out there. Any new games I should be getting, software, computer parts, tv shows? At the moment all my Christmas list has on it is a case of Monster. I've been dieing without the stuff, and during the summer I normally drink it regularly :tinfoil:

How about you guys? Do you want any thing for Christmas? :v:

I want cod mw2 and an itouch 8GB, the mouse and keyboard adapter for xbox 360, and a 4000 pack of MS points for game add-ons.

Probably getting the itouch and mw2 on black friday.

My list:
New Super Mario Bros.
Metroid Prime Trilogy (yes, I still don't have it. Fuck college)
Studio Projects B1 Condenser Mic
Desktop mini-boom stand for ^

Pretty small. The only things I've bought for myself in all of 2009 is L4D2 and Windows 7. Just a slow year for games, I guess. Though, I still have not played ODST.

This is entirely not too soon, black friday is coming up soon and that is a major xmas gift shopping day. Not to mention people do their shoping early as Blind said.

If you actually read what I posted, I never said he was. I said my siblings that are 4 and 10 do believe in him. Also its November, and its not even a month away. It's easier to get shopping for shit out of the way before rush's.

This, college is stupid expensive, and my dad wouldn't let me take out loans to pay for it... he wanted to do it all for me. I appreciate the fuck out of that, but it still makes me feel like I'm far too dependent on him.

Anyhow, other than that.. money... so I can buy other people stuff. I blew my budget buying a plane ticket to Washington to see my girlfriend and her family.

We don't like to make online purchases when we can get the same stuff at a store front (this is more or less my grandparents talking, they're splitting the cost with me)... My stuff is also listed in Canadian dollars instead of American. In addition we're also getting a bit of a discount on some of the stuff I listed.

We'd also never use the card reader, or cleaning kit included in that package (already have some). The bag that they've included doesn't look like it's got the same build quality as the LowePro bag either.

Yes, both lenses were perfectly fine, though I would like to get one with a shorter focal length to do macro photography. Don't know if I want to spend the money on it though.

It's been raining this whole week unless you just want simple inside shots. Hopefully it will let up tomorrow.

Apparently (I'm a newbie, don't listen to me!) you can get fairly good macro shots with the 18-55mm lens, but I can understand why you'd want a better one.

When I get my pictures I'm going to try and get some shots of the Rocky Mountains, since I can see them from my house...

Why are they going with the retro old 35mm look? :raise:
Because it's Leica. They're continuing on the design of their M-series, that they've been producing since the 1930's (iirc). It's also manual focus.

TL;DR: Leica doesn't change much.
