My Birthday Loot
Finally, my birthday is here and I am having a fabulous time! We had a fun dinner with friends at Boka last night. Tonight Siv is taking me out for a romantic dinner somewhere, he hasn’t told me where yet. Well, food is always great, but the best part about birthdays are the gifts, and boy, did I score!
Siv got me a whole bunch of stuff related to photography. He actually did a lot of research, and got me stuff specific for close up shots, including a new lens, and this Nikon Close-up Speedlight Remote Kit with so many tiny things inside, I have to spend at least a week reading through the manual to figure out what the heck I can do with it. I am totally ignorant when it comes to photography, so don’t expect to start seeing some jaw-dropping pictures here from tomorrow, or anytime in the near future. 
He has also enrolled me in some photography class, it sounds like so much work to me, I just convinced him to take it with me, so someone can do my homework…
In addition to all these, I got some really nice gifts from my friends as well. M gave me these amazing foodie books, I have no idea which one to start with, each one sounds better than the other! Thanks M… perfect gift!
I also got these fab dresses, watch, earrings and handbag…
Aren’t my friends cool? Thank you girls…
…and guys (even though you didn’t get me any gifts… )
And thank you baby, you are the greatest!

I just got here and boom a post. My sis and you share the same birthday. No wonder we get along or do we (…hm..m) since you recently have new taste for tofu. I would say yes.
Your camera gifts look intense! What kind of lens did he get you, I have a Nikon too and I see a Nikkor lens..Scoop please.

Happy Birthday, Sig! Your handbags are pretty! And I’m with you on not knowing anything about photography – I only last week figured out how to turn on the timer on my camera, and for some reason, for the past two months, all my pix have been grainy and I can’t figure out why

How thoughtful of Siv! Happy Birthday, Sig! Would it be too much to ask if you can send me some tips from your photography classes – or should i ask Siv since you have enlisted him for your homework?
