broke

shoot! my camera's memory card just broke. why such things would happen during the time you needed them most?
yesterday, i realized that its been a long time since i've posted something about everyday scenes which was the original plan of this blog after my camera phone broke.
so i went out and began taking pictures of various interesting and most of the time taken for granted everyday scenery using my camera.
i had quite a number of shots: vagrant couples who were sleeping on the door step of an abandoned building along katipunan avenue with three dogs that seemed to be considered as their children. the kid who was singing and asking for change at the entrance of the mrt station in quezon avenue and a number of waking up families living inside carts parked along kamias road every morning.
the shots were actually nice. but when i was about to extract them to the computer, its giving me errors, errors, errors and tons of errors. i tried sending it to an internet shop, hoping to atleast get those files. but the internet shop guy just told me the same thing and more, that even formatting is not allowed by the memory card. i concluded, the memory card was already corrupted.
buying a new memory card is not the problem, its the files that were stored there! argh!

nakakainis nga yun lalo na't kung sobrang ganda ang mga shots na nakuha mo. Last month, I accidentally reformated my memory card from my previous trip, e na delete ko lahat halos murahin ako ng mga kasama ko. hahaha! Katangahan ko! =0

bulitas said...

it happened to me before. and fortunately, nagawa nilang i-retrieve ang karamihans mga files.

wanderingcommuter said...

bulitas: wow, talaga? ang galing. sige, i'll pay them a visit one of these days.
anino: sobrang maingat nga ako sa mga files ko eh. nalintikan pa rin! tsktsk! meron pa nga ako'ng virtual drive eh. just for me to be able to retrieve them kahit mag crash computer ko. kaso nalintikan lang talaga at hindi ko siya natransfer on time. tsk!
10.1mp kasi yung camera ko. although pwede siya iadjust. i like my pictures on that size especially if these are exceptional pictures.
wala na bang tawad yan? hahaha!
carl: matagal ko ng ginawa yan e. hehehe!
turismoboi: kailangan ko na nga talaga ng laptop at smart bro para kahit saan wireless. upload kaagad. hehehe!
