Well.

I had my camera in june (20th, for my birthday). Thanks Mummy, thanks Daddy, I can now take photos alone without friends' cameras... yuppie etc.
My camera was stolen in august (pickpocket. well. you can see that here if you really want to : [link]). Welly welly well.
I move to Paris. Paris, and no camera. What a crime. So I eat pastas for two months, and I buy again my camera (the same one). That was at the end of october.
Aaand, the very begenning of december, I broke my camera.
250€ for repair it. It cost 150.
If I ask for a new camera for Christmas, that would be my third in 6 month. And I'm sure there will be another shit with if I do.

So now, I'll only buy disposable cameras (is that the right word for appareil photo jetable?).
(But if someone here is secretly in love with me and want to offer me a new camera, send me a note, and I'll give you my adress!)
