So once upon a time there was this stupid girl who was mildly interested in photography. (By mildly, I mean very interested, just with no professional training, nor classes under her belt, and little experience, excusing the horrible outburst of "PHOTOGRAPHY," lovers and even more horrible "self-portraits," that have been given to us by the age of the mobile phone with a camera attatched to it.)
Anyhoo, this girl spent a lot of time hanging out with one of her best friends, and once mentioned to him that she wished she could just get a miniature camera implanted into her eye, and if she so willed it, it would snap a photo when she blinked. It would turn out exactly how she saw it, with no flash, no special lenses, and far more pixelage than any mobile phone's camera could hope to achieve.
Four-to-five years later, he still remembered and brought it up as a sort of inside joke, or just randomly into conversation. She doesn't remember exactly why it was brought up, or what he said. But he remembered, and that was awesome.
He also gave her his camera. It's a freaking Canon. And the best part is, it's not digital. And the first time they broke up, he let her keep it.
