oh ricoh

please please, let someone fix this camera this saturday! 

was excited and all for two weeks to get hold of chrissy's camera. then even as i was able to get this, still was not able to test it because unlike dear holga, ricoh needed batteries. my flash's batteries have all been drained and my charger's always in the office. always forgetting to bring any of those together. and now, finally all three plus the cheap film, and soooooosuperduperecxited to let the pop-out flash work and hear how it's shutter sounds it looks like that i still won't be able to use this. boo. i guess the camera right now's not in a good condition at all. and now i just learned that it hasn't been used for nearly a decade! whaaaat?!?!?! no wonder. hahaha better have this looked this saturday. i hope it won't rain so i won't have to dive the murky waters in hidalgo.haha and hopefully have my b&whites by then.
