I'm awesome

I am so stinkin cool

I fell in the water first at Switzer Falls.  Whats wrong with me.  Even when other people eventually fell it was like a foot or maybe a hand and foot.  But me, I fall in both feet butt and hands.  Hands holding my camera!  Again!  (Well actually the first time I went swimming with my camera)

I thought it'd be cool because the camera was in the water for like literally 1 second.  Nope.  This would be the second camera (same model) that I'd have lost to Switzer Falls!  Switzer hates me and my camera.  At first the screen wouldn't display correctly, it would have lines or static or sometimes just a white screen.

But electronics have a way of fixing themselves 
(which isn't really magic like I say it is, really most electronics now have current sinks so that when there is a short circuit all the electricity is just discharged instead of going into the important components.  Thats why you can let electronics dry out, because when the water isn't creating a short anymore, electricity will again go where its supposed to, instead of just being discharged.)

Anyway, my camera is back to 100%.  I think. I hope.  I'm kinda scared because I took some pictures saturday night and the lighting sensitivity was really off.  (Which I think I'm getting into cameras now understanding ISO light sensitivity and apeture size and such.  Time to do some experimenting, when I have time of course)  I really hope my camera isn't damaged and I just don't know yet.  But then again it would be an excuse to get a more versatile camera.
