It's been 15 days since my last entry. Since then, I have applied to 30 jobs, sent in 35 resumes, been nagged by my father about finding a job at least 10 times, played board games with my cousins on 8 separate occasions, ate a year's worth of McDonalds to collect Monopoly pieces, collected over 50 pieces (yeah, that much McD's ), and upgraded to a new camera.

So job searching is the same old same old. Went for 1 interview and had 1 phone interview. Everything else so far is just "application and resume on file." I have one more interview on Tuesday, which hopefully goes well.

During these two weeks my cousins and I have been meeting up quite a bit. It's nice to be able to catch up on things and reminisce about old times. The last time we've all gotten together under the same roof without any special circumstances has been at least 2 years or more. We've bought a dozen board games totalling $200ish which was split amongst us all, but it has kept us occupied for hours at a time without spending extra money doing other miscellaneous stuff. When you account per person per hour, I guess it isn't all that bad. Each time we've met up we've also tried some new food here and there. It seems like it's been the only times I have ate something other than McDonalds, ugh..

I got a T700 camera just shipped to me yesterday. A friend's friend that works at Sony hooked it up. Not that the T100 is ancient yet, but it is giving me some problems upon boot up and lag while focusing during a shot. The splash screen lags every once in a while so I lose that "perfect moment" shot by a few seconds. The T700 is blazing fast at what it does. Point and shoot in an instant sans lag. There's still some noise in low-light environments but it's a great improvement over T100. Not sure how it compares with T200 or T300 though as I have no prior experience with either camera. Asthetically, it's cleaner. Slimmer camera with sleeker lines and larger touch display. The aluminum frame feels sturdy in the hand and the front lens cover is solid. I had a camera case ready for it sitting on my desk since for a period of time I was considering the T300 as a replacement, but it's much slimmer than expected. It's like wearing clothes 2 times larger than your normal size. When I use the camera more, I can give a better review of it's performance.

Update on my last entry: Due to my impatience to get white paint, I test screened a shirt in yellow on a red shirt. It came out quite well so I did another one on a blue shirt. The second time around it came out production-perfect. Because I was on a roll, I decided to make another MusiCat shirt in red on grey which also came out flawless.
