ONE OH SIX

things on my wish list this year

but all I need is a new camera

as much as I love mine
and all the places we've been together
the things we've seen and documented
it's dying on me.

the battery takes 3+ hours to charge
and lasts close to 20 minutes for pictures
10 on video
before it completely shuts off and hibernates

it requires a dock to plug into anything
its impossible to charge through my laptop
and only through outlets
but needs a separate cord
so I constantly have to have 2 cords + dock
in order for it to work at all

its missing a chunk out of the bottom corner
from god knows when
and when I open the latch to take out the battery
it comes flying out along with the SD card
-.-
I've only had it for 3 years
but maybe that's a long life for a camera

with my art photography class next quarter
I don't think I'll be able to work through it
with this camera

maybe it was because I never named it...

valpicon bather
please magically finish yourself during the night
while I sleep tucked away
in my warm cozy soft bed

it's going to be a long night, world
