Not much happened today(technically yesterday). Well probably the first thing that i did today was i bought a camera. A week or so ago i picked up my camera to take some pictures of grasshoppers and when i turned it on i discovered that my screen had cracked. I don't know how it had happened or when but it did. I was devistated because it means so much to me. It was my first camera and i have taken more than 15,000 pictures with it since i got it for christmas 3 years ago. I continued to use it for a while without the screen but it wasn't the same because i couldnt see what i was photographing and i wan't able to change any settings.

I had been planning on buying a new one soon any ways but i was planning on giving ny old one to my grandma because she doesn't have one and i think that she could use it a lot. Now i still might give it to her because you can still use it but i might keep because its has some sentimental value and i don't know how well she would be able to use it without a screen.

My new camera that i bought is a silver Fujifilm AX250. I payed $105 for it after tax. I have not gotten it yet but i am sure that i will love it because of the following:

• 14 megapixels(my old one was 7.1 MP)
• 5X optical zoom(3X)
• ISo settings up to3200(ISO800)
• 1/1400 max shutter speed. (1/1200)
• Auto picture rotation
• Face detection
• 100 free walmart prints
