Title: Most creative excuse?
Post by: chette on January 13, 2007, 03:40:23 PM
What is the most creative excuse you ever made to justify to your wife/girlfriend that you need to buy a new camera equipment?  :-D

"bibili ako ng MKII para kumita ng mas maraming pera, and besides bibigay ko naman sayo yung 350D. Deal?"

... that's what i said to my wife. It's not creative but it worked for me!

I would say, "Look dear, doesn't that pretty white lens with the red stripe look more fashionable than all those boring black lenses?"

"Sige na... Binenta ko na nga yung Fujifilm s7000 ko para bilin yung Canon ixus i7 mo for Christmas e. Kaw kasi, iniwan mo kasi sa taxi yung Sony T3 mo... And besides, mura lang naman yung Fujifilm S2Pro na binebenta sa akin..."

Nangonsiyensiya pa... Magastos, but it worked! Thanks nga pala Chette for the contact number! Sabihin mo kay Jim, punta kami Hidalgo... bwehehehe

Hey Jim! Gab and I are going to Hidalgo tomorrow... Maybe you want to tag along to canvass on some prices for your 580!
I'm looking for a bag too and some new rechargables.

My wife commenting on one of my SEA Games (gymnastics) shots:

Awww nice shot but you missed the mid air flip.

My answer:

Had I been using a Mark II, It could've been a lot better. :)

Not just yet..but slowly getting into her. Soon..very soon! Hehehe
