			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1761" title="blackberry9300" src="http://blog.pimentels-photography.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/blackberry9300.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="145" />I recently got a free Blackberry Curve 9300. So glad I did too!!</p>
<p>My old Blackberry Curve 8310 was just&#8230;BAD. No wifi, slow as hell, so many battery pulls because it would freeze constantly, etc. I got it a few years ago.</p>
<p>In this day and age, TECHNOLOGY CHANGES AT A RAPID PACE. So my precious 8310 was outdated really fast.</p>
<p>Well, I&#8217;m a longtime customer of <a href="http://www.rogers.com" target="_blank"><strong>Rogers Canada</strong></a>. I had an old mobile phone and another account.</p>
<p>Why two accounts? At the time I was a teenager and thus the account was under my father&#8217;s name. When I eventually decided to get my first Blackberry which was some time later, I closed the old account and made the new one for myself. So, when I&#8217;m saying longtime customer, that would probably be a good 10+years at minimum.</p>
<p>Anyways, after a year or two of your contract, you might be eligible for a hardware upgrade. They send  you a letter in the mail listing which phones may be suitable for you. Two of them were offered to me at $0. If I wanted the latest models, I would have to pay some money for it. Having a tight budget at the moment, really made my option a no brainer. FREE BLACKBERRY PLEASE &amp; THANK YOU!</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 150px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tinasilva/6106965213/"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6067/6106965213_ac8e5c11c5_m.jpg" alt="" width="140" height="140" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">My Blackberry 9300</p></div>
<p>The <a href="http://www.rogers.com/web/link/wirelessBuyFlow?forwardTo=PhoneThenPlan&amp;productType=normal&amp;productId_Detailed=9300GRYR&amp;N=52+11+278" target="_blank"><strong>Blackberry Curve 9300</strong></a> is what I went with. It&#8217;s a big upgrade from the 8310 that I previously had. It runs so SMOOTHLY! The difference is remarkable. Plus I have wifi (which I wanted badly), a better camera, and lots of performance improvements.</p>
<p>When I called in to ask about my eligibility for the hardware upgrade program, the representative from Rogers hooked me up!! Got tons of freebies &amp; extra things on my plan that I probably won&#8217;t use, but hey&#8230;it was FREE TOO! They even discounted $5 off my monthly rate which helps out quite a bit.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m really happy with not only the product but my good friends at Rogers!</p>
<p>Thank you <strong>Rogers Canada</strong> &amp; <strong>RIM</strong>! <img src="http://blog.pimentels-photography.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/heart.gif" class="wp-smiley" /><img src="http://blog.pimentels-photography.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/heart.gif" class="wp-smiley" /><img src="http://blog.pimentels-photography.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/heart.gif" class="wp-smiley" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love taking photographs.</p>
<p>Photographs of family, animals, nature, but my favourites &#8211; the sky, clouds, sunsets, or sunrises.</p>
<p>Something about the beauty of it all makes me think that there&#8217;s got to be more to this life than what we know. How can you not think that there&#8217;s something magical about life when you are sitting outside watching the sunset and all the magnificent colours it brings?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s just peaceful and beyond beautiful.</p>
<p>I know most, if not all of us has experienced that feeling before.</p>
<p>With that being said, I just want to share some photos I took &amp; edited with my iPod 4G. Not the best quality because of the camera quality of the iPod 4G, but I didn&#8217;t have any other camera on me at the time.</p>

<p><strong>To all my readers and visitors, I apologize.</strong></p>
<p>Even though I get on my computer pretty much everyday, I never get the encouragement to blog about anything. My mind is just blank. So I keep prolonging updates.</p>
<p>Then the unthinkable happened…</p>
<p>…I will blog about it heresoon enough.</p>
<p>That single event, flipped my world upside down.</p>
<p>I’ve been trying to keep my head up…but it’s really really hard.</p>
<p>Stay tuned&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My mother loves her garden. She has a so many figurines, assorted plants, and flowers around. I took a few photos of some nifty things weeks ago&#8230; well maybe a month or two when spring first came around. Either way, they were cool enough to capture.</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tinasilva/5760466020"><img title="Lighthouse in the garden." src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3020/5760466020_aed7b954fa_m.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Lighthouse in the garden.</p></div>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tinasilva/5759915933"><img title="Flowers in the garden." src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2639/5759915933_47761fa673_m.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Flowers in the garden.</p></div>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tinasilva/5759919725"><img title="Froggy Love" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5221/5759919725_100c80c050_m.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Froggy Love</p></div>
<p>My favourite are the froggies. It brings back memories of this one time I was at my aunt &amp; uncle&#8217;s house and there was tons of frogs &#8211; assorted sizes and colours &#8211; around this big pond they have. Mind you, I didn&#8217;t touch or pick up any because ewl gross, I&#8217;m a girl and I shouldn&#8217;t dare touch frogs. <img src="http://blog.pimentels-photography.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/tonguer.gif" class="wp-smiley" /></p>
<p>But, that was a sight to see!! Wish I had a camera back then to capture it. I&#8217;ve never seen so many frogs in my life until that day.</p>
<p>And in case you&#8217;re wondering, I did <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>NOT</strong></span> try and kiss any to see if they&#8217;d turn into a prince. Heehee  <img src="http://blog.pimentels-photography.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/kyay.gif" class="wp-smiley" /></p>
