Baseball Summer

Wanted to see the Cubs vs Sox games so bad that I signed up for a 9-game plan at the US Cell. Actually, it worked out pretty well, because I'll get to see at least a game each month. and this is the only way to see Cubs vs Sox with regular priced ticket.

I think I'm in for a treat this summer. Got tickets to Sox games versus Yankees, Red Sox, Angels, Orioles, Tigers, and Twins. The best part about the Cubs game in June is that it's the last game of the rival series... I'd be sure to bring my broom!!

Too bad Cubs tickets are so difficult to obtain, and so expensive. I guess that's marketing and money making. I like the Cubs... but Sox games are more affordable and easier to get to. Besides, I'm psyched about Sox this year-- they got prospect for playoff. Hah hah, we Chicagoans say that every year!! There's always... "Next Year" as well!!!

Ha ha, I gotz to stop this blog now... .... ROFL...

Perpetual Conflict

just when do you know the decisions you make is the right one? In today's world, choices are abundant, and making the right ones is a challenging decision. But no matter the choice, there's a consequence to live with.

Sometimes, too many options can cloud one's judgement. After all, there's always something better out there, it might just be outside of your ability.

Can one simply rationalize decision making into the economics of choice? ie what's the opportunity cost of each choice?

I wish life were as simple as nickels and dimes!

Desert Harmony

Listening to a radio station that encourages the listeners to call in and say which music the listerners would take, if they were on a desert island.

If you only have one, which music would you take, assuming you can listen to it?

I'll probably have to go with Beethoven's 9th.

Digital Wonders

Scouted the weeknight Chicago street with fellow photography-lover, and used the Nikon D70 (on a loan) camera. Especially true for night time shots, the digital camera allowed me to first see the picture. With a regular film camera, you'd have to wait until you develop the rolls. I guess the digital camera takes away the anticipation. Then again, it does allow for taking better picture because you can immediately try other settings.

Anyways, here are some of those pictures.

What I also like about digital SLR is the fact that the resolution of the image is high and each picture can be cropped/zoomed with ease without compromising the image quality. Because the price tag on the digital SLR is relatively high right now, it won't be popular for a while (and the fact that it can't be a small, slick, fit-in-your-pocket camera).

my goal: understand the concept of regular SLR. and eventually down the road, I'll invest in a digital SLR. I'm sure by that time, the technology of digital camera will have improved.
