Detlev those times dont count! You need to get out man! Go hang out! Meet new people. Have a drink and enjoy a nice relaxing day :D

I can't relax.. I even up sleeping badly during the holidays...

And "hanging out"... it's something I can't do... -> I'd also start scaring everybody away with either computer, photography, history or politics...

Meeting new people - I was never good at at.... heck, apparently I was already a loner in Kindergarten in Germany :D so that's pretty much tradition now :D .- and consistent :)

I think primary school starts at the age of 6 in Germany -> and I'm 21 now... (will be 22 at the very end of October 2011)

Now listening to Dvorak by the way :D oh what wonderful music...

You can relax. Here is the solution. Go have 3 pints and let me know the story after that. :D

I went to school from age 4-23. Trust me i found time to relax and still graduate with honors.

Have a few pints. Talk crap about crap. Go people watching with friends. Enjoy life man! Cant be stressed all the time.




Jeez i sound like some hippie or surfer now :lol:

The problem is, when I'm amongst people I want to make constructive use of the time, and that generally means talking about/debating some topic which is generally something people aren't interested in.
-> I also don't "do" any small talk...
On another note - it's always easy to give good recommendations, and I would possibly give the same to someone who complains about life the way I do :D but it's hard to change yourself. I'd need someone who actively drags me out of doors..

And enjoying life... I think I stopped doing that a long time ago...

I went from 30D to 7D and before the 7D came out was going to jump to Nikon because Canon didnt have -exactly- the body i wanted along with 2 lenses I REALLY wanted...The D300, 16-85 VR and 105 VR Macro..

Then Canon launched the 7D, 15-85 and 100L on the same day..I picked up a 15-85, a few months later got the 7D and a few months after that got my 100L ;) I'm quite happy with all three

I contemplated switching again recently to get a D7000 and that but i decided it wasnt worth it, i'd gain little or nothing out of the switch in terms of image quality and get no real tangible benefits...

Yeah, I looked at the D7000, just liked the 7D a bit better.

I just need to get my lense selection to what I want it to be, going from kit lenses it took me some time to narrow it down to the two lenses I ended up with, I'm happy with both, but not entirely sure I would do that again right away.

Just need a 100L and a 70-200MK2 and I'll be happy :p (Ok maybe a 24-70L too...)
