Update

So, headed to the gym with sw in the morning.. did not do much today cos there were so many ppl, and my wrist decided to shout out in discomfort for no reason.. alredy thought that it was quite a wasted trip, yet, we headed to kfc for lunch.. omg, two piece meal! the whole trip to gym was wasted.. wanted to go pool initially, but sw wanted to go home and study.. in the end, we walked arnd hougang mall to slack and to do smth else..

finally thought of buying a tripod and a flash, went to challenger.. the moment i stepped in, i saw two 270EX sitting on the shelf.. asked the salesperson whether they sell Canon flash or not, u know what?!?! HE JUST SAID NO! maybe it was due to my attire, he thought i was just a small little kid trying to mess arnd.. walked arnd challenger to find my tripod, didnt see any though.. i didnt bother to ask, after experiencing such service from that salesperson!

went down to harvey norman to look arnd after that.. saw a few tripods on display.. all were SteinZeiser's.. after like looking arnd for 20~30mins, finally decided on one.. i could have took longer, lucky sw was there also, if not i would still be standing there after 1hr. ha! i'm always like that, take very long when buying things! spent 60 bucks on that tripod! asked for a new one, paid and realised there were sratches on the legs! suay enough, that was the only one left! initially wanted to change to another model, but was not interested.. settled for the only one left.. headed home after that..

I'm left with my flash now.. still choosing between 430EX II (S$475) and Nissin Di866 (S$410).. dont know which one to choose! or shld i buy the Nissin Di622 which only costs S$210?? then i can use the leftover portion of my angbao money for a lens.. argh, any photographers (fl, tfcd, amateur, professionals etc etc...) out there, if u happen to see this, pls give some advice.. TIA!
