Thank You Oprah

I'm writing my blog in honor of Oprah's favorite things episode.  People, this is her last season, so this will be one of the last favorites giveaway.  Thats right, Monday & Tuesday will show her Ultimate favorites 1 & 2 respectively, so we still have some time to dream & add a few things to our Christmas wishlists!  I am quite saddened by the fact that Oprah's talk show is going off the air and I never got tickets to a favorite thing giveaway episode, it was a life goal of mine.  So, here I go:

1. My Nikon D40 DSLR with 18-55mm lens.  Yes I'm aware that is the standard lens, I am looking into fancy lenses for my camera.

2.  My Nikon FM10, with standard lens.  This is my 35mm camera, although I've yet to use it (just got it in Sept), I'm not unfamiliar with this camera & the work it can produce.  I have to order some B&W film & get busy!

3.  Netflix.  That is right, I listed Netflix (& wouldn't you know, Oprah shares this sentiment!).  I mean, you pay a low monthly price & you get movies delivered to your home & you can stream them to your TV or computer.

4.  Blackberry Curve 8520.  While the Blackberry Storm I used to have was better than this little number, I still can't help but love it.  I mean its my technology go-to, internet, text messaging, phone calls, gps, alarm clock, camera, & feeding tracker all-in-one, whats not to love?

5.  Macbook.  Yes, 13" of white Apple material!  I loathe Windows, so of course this is on my favorites list.  I'm very unsure of how someone could hate Apple and all their genius.  I love them so much that I just know I'm going to get another macbook, perhaps a macbook pro, and while I'm at it why not indulge in an iMac?

6.  Shoes.  I don't discriminate against shoes, I love them all equally as long as they're cute!  I am a little partial to flip flops (of the Old Navy persuasion), my Puma speed cats, Sperry has stolen a place in my heart as well.  I have a closet full of shoes and feel no where near complete, my husband hates that small bit of information. ** There are too many shoes to share pictures**

7.  Movies.  Yes multiples.  I think everyone should watch "Steel Magnolias", "Fried Green Tomatoes", "My Cousin Vinny", "Grease", "Breakfast Club", "Shrek (1-3)", "Ice Age (1-3)", and "Alice in Wonderland (Disney animation version)" at least twice.

8.  My Ipods.  Plural, I have 2, a cute pink Ipod nano and a black/gray Classic.  Both are filled with a variety of music and used regularly.  I'm thinking of donating my nano to Saige, she needs to learn to love all sorts of music early.

Thank you for educating yourself in my favorite things, my next blog(s) will quite possibly contain my favorite things non-material possessions, and my "would like to have one day" favorites!

  1. This was fun to read!

    My iMac would also be on my favorite things list. I love that computer and hope to invest in a Mac book as soon as humanly possible.

    I also have multiple iPods. People think I am crazy but whatever! I have a 2nd gen nano, Classic, and iPhone. I know the last one is a phone, but I use the iPod function on it all the time, lol. My husband also has a Touch so I guess we could be called iPod crazy.

  2. I like your Nikon FM10 :)

    My BB Curve 8520 is also on my favourite list :D as well as my Wedge heels and Prada.

    @Kasey, my DF has an iPhone 4 :( lucky him. I totally support Mac computers because they do so much things better than Windows, such as no viruses lol.
