Chore day also means a day to attempt to take more point-and-shoot photos. It’s like running errands while capturing the moment as you go. You may be hustling and bustling through the aisle and grabbing things off your to-buy list, but there’s always a moment of pause. That’s when you capture it. It may not always be perfect, but it’ll capture what it was to be in that exact moment as you go on with life.
There’s something calming about the holidays coming around with the display, pumpkin spice, and retail stores stocking everything from Halloween to Christmas at once. It wasn’t always like this back in the late 80’s and 90’s. You’d see Christmas decoration and things in December, Fall and Halloween stuff in October, and Thanksgivings after Halloween has ended.
The quality is potato compared to modern day smartphones but it’s a cute potato and a nostalgic one. I’ve noticed that you have to hold it for two seconds before it takes a photo that doesn’t blur (exactly like the old point-and-shoot or first generation digital cameras). The on and off also takes about 5 seconds year so that’s something to consider, but at least it has auto-screen off and auto-shut off so you can just throw it back into your pocket.
