My family bought me a Nikon D50 for my b-day!

I bid on it on eBay a few weeks ago and my mom, step dad, sister and brother are paying for it. It was shipped and arrived here last Friday. I've been somewhat busy lately, so I've only spent about an hour altogether with. I love it so much! Johnny (ex bf) took my old cam, so I won't have something small and compact to carry around everywhere (except my cell phone... 0.3MP ew) but whenever I get the chance and whenever I have ideas, I'll go out and shoot. Once I get my full license it'll be easier to go and shoot whatever I want, but until then I'll just try to do it every chance I get. Aaaand once I save up some cash maybe I'll get an ACTUAL tripod instead of my mini one. I'm so excited
