Well, now that the internet has been put back on in the ship, I can update again :)
so... much has happened since my last post... Grit has officially quit as a Steiner (down with the hellish company!) and as I type this she is flying somewhere between Toronto and Vancouver!!! She has opted to go home 20 days earlier than me, to stay at my mom's house, and hibernate WITHOUT alarm clocks and hair appointments until I come home on April 18th...
Lucky Lucky Lucky :|
It was a major pain in the ass to get everything sorted out... but she is finally on her way... oh, also: Kylie (steiner from australia) has also quit and gone to Canada WITH Grit, and will be staying with at my moms for a night and then heading to Whistler for a job interview at a spa :)
again, down with Steiner... you suck very much.... and its not just my opinion, its many many many peoples opinions... if I had to choose between working for Steiner, and getting kicked in the plums by a marathon runner with stilettos.... I'd spread my legs and grit my teeth.
In other news: Can SOMEONE please tell me where the hell to find a Fuji S5 Camera Body????? there, I said it, thats the camera.. Its the Nikon D200 but with Fuji Insides.... yes, I am going Nikon.... do research on the Fuji S5 and find out why. Plus, I know the Nikons now more than My own Canon :) I updated the For Sale sign around the ship tonight for my camera and I have my pager on at all times... It will be sold, OH YES, it will be sold...
But the funny thing is, theres a whole lot of nostalgia with my 10D... so many good roadtrips with some of the best friends I have ever had...
now in some weird weird unforseen news....
i was told today by my manager that I have been nominated for employee of the month... sounds cool eh? now, add on the fact that there are only 12 people nominated each month....out of over 800...
800!!!!!
talk about a good way to leave a contract! even if i dont win it (and i expect some hard working, well deserving philippeno to get it instead... kudos in advance), i get a photo with the captain and psd, and a certificate of 'you almost made it!' :)
damn... yay me!
now, to sum up:
if everything goes to plan, in 20 days i will be home, driving in the rocky mountains taking photos with my new camera, with my 'employee of the month' photo framed in my back seat :)
roadtrip? roadtrip.
ruh.

Mike, Henry's has it in stock on their website.
Mike, I asked my husband who is really into photography as well and he said:
B and H Photo has them in stock as of this morning. Here is the link. As you know BH is very reputable and ship just about anywhere if you can verify your credit card to the address or use paypal.

I am sure there are other places that may have it that may be a little more flexible about credit card address versus shipping address. Here are a few other reputable dealers I know of that have an internet presence.

haha i just spent a few minutes writing a whole bunch here and the damn thing didnt post and now i forgot what i said hahahaha...
first of all THANK YOU for helping me out, thats so nice of you :)
I should have mentioned though that I go through life without a credit card :) theres just a big pile of cash in my pocket and burning a hole :)
I have Cayman Camera in Grand Cayman and Foto Source around the corner from my mom's in White Rock, BC battling it out for the sale for now, but so far the war continues...
I just cant wait to go home, master my new camera, and get out shooting weddings/portraits/landscapes/ and photojournalistic such and suches :)
anyone need me? willing to travel *wink wink* ;)
Mike, that is commendable that you have no credit cards! What about a debit card? Also Paypal takes the money right out of your account if you find a dealer that takes it as well. Best of luck to you!
Grand Cayman has it!!!! They have it on hold for me! yayyyyyyy
also, it looks like i might be going home this turnaround instead of next turnaround... i am happy either way, but as long as i get my camera first hahahaha
Glad to hear it! If you havent sold your canon yet, post a side by side of a photo from the new one and canon here. I would be interested to see what can beat a canon!
