The Bimmer didn't work out... good deal, but two expensive, at least for me at this point in my life. I'll own one long term later.

Not my last purchase, but a big one nonetheless (a few weeks ago)

And just today (one of two vintage watches) an original Accutron tuning fork movement:

The second watch is a Hamilton Automatic from the heyday of Hamilton watches. Lucky me. They're used, but professionally restored, cleaned and tuned. When I buy an old timepiece (I have a thing for them) I tell people I bought the story... the watch came free.

JUst picked this up the other day. Super excited to finally get it. Sorry for the crappy picture. Still need to hide some wires and figure out how I want to set up everything on my desk.

A hotel room for my job interview. I know that sounded dirty so let me say, a hotel room near the place where I will have my job interview :p

And no, its not this hotel, I don't care too much for Dubai, too hot, too much construction, and too many people trying to make me get in their cab all the times I was there.

Mom left a couple of weeks ago to spend some time with her sisters in Florida, so I HAD to place a small order, since some stuff here in Greece is expensive.

I also got stuff like underwear, cologne, excedrin, fish oil, multivitamins, clipper blade replcements, Biore, etc. Oh, and I also have to pay $50 to British Airways so she can have a second piece of luggage to take back with her. If anyone knows a way around that, Im all ears!

I think I might have went a bit overboard LOL. Well, at least some of the shoes from Nike didnt cost me much. I bought two pair of Air Max's in late 2009, and after a month, the bottom bubbles on both pair popped. I filed a claim with Nike back them, but I kept waiting and waiting to ship them out, which I never did. My mom took them back with her when she left, and shipped them out. She called them a few days later, and she said that Nike's customer service was excellent, and they mailed her out a $320 gift card to purchase anything online. Shoes are tough to find here, since I wear a 14, not to mention that sneakers cost about $70 more here. This is a once a year purchase, so I do tend to go crazy lol.

I'm not familiar with British airways specifically but my way around paying for luggage is to carry it on then gate check it so I donlt actually bring it on the plain. Saves me time, other passengers space in the bins and most importantly it's free :).

Also this means your bag has to get through security approved so make sure it's in order in that regard.

Rode Videomic - used\like new for 70€, huge improvement over the built in mic!


I already have an 8GB card, but it's a class 6, and apparently I need a class 10 for shooting HD video.

You can shoot 1080p video with a class 6 card, it has to be 6 ou higher, i use my 16gb class 6 samsung in my 550D\t2i.

Obviously class 10 is better but class 6 works!

Oh, good to know, thanks.:)

Everything I've read online about this pointed me towards a class 10 card, but it's good to know that I'll still be able to use my class 6 card if I need to.
