"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I was thinking about buying something like this (Sony):
Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T3
Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T1

They look really good (small, too), but they're really really expensive compared to other digital cameras that are in the same league, are they worth it?

Obviously style shouldn't be my only criteria. I'm not turned on by 8 megabyte pictures that show the pores in your skin, so to me there's no point in paying more for a "high quality" camera, I'm just in it for the memories... So what else do you guys think I should be looking for in a cam, besides style?

And what do you guys use (please mention the exact model name)?

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

The only problem I have with the Exilim's are that they use an internal battery - I prefer to have a camera that you can bring spare batteries along with - you never know when you'll run out and it's not difficult at all to leave 2 AA batteries in your car or pocket. I'd recommend the Fuji A303, I just bought one last week and am impressed with it so far... it's not "micro" like the Exilim's, and it's a little larger than the ELPH's, but not by much. Definitely check out Steve's Reviews here:

This site is a MUST for anyone even remotely considering purchasing a camera... see for yourself.

I have the sony T1. It's ****in awesome. It was also my first camera. But I'd like a camera that i could **** with the exposure time and a bunch of other cool settings, but this camera doesn't do that. It's just a small cool camera, which is good enough.

For the record, I got the Casio Exilim Ex-S100.

It was like love at first sight. All the other digicams are sh;t. Mine's THE sh;t.

Haven't tested it yet, I will tonight, though.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Glad I could help! :)

Yeah I fell in love with the Exilim at first sight too. (I have the Ex-S3... http://www.steves-digicams.com/2003_reviews/exs3.html).

Of course, I had totally superficial reasons for wanting it (it was so tiny and flat it would fit in even my tiniest purse - god I'm such a girl) but I was also really impressed at how great the quality was.

And even though it has an internal battery, like diablo mentioned, it holds a charge for a pretty long time (and powers off after a while if left on accidentally).

And every time I whip it out to take a picture everyone "ooohs" and "aaahs" and says "that's such a cool camera!" which is just what an attention ***** like me needs. ;)
