BONUS PHOTOS<\/h1>\n

I also brought along an ancient Nikon Coolpix 3700 from 2003!\u00a0 This little digicam is older than the graduate! \ud83d\ude2d Here are some unfiltered photos that 20 years ago would have been right at home on a myspace page with music playing in the background. \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 It’s so crazy, everything goes around and comes around, especially fashion and gadgets.\u00a0 I guess young folks want that “vintage” aesthetic with the spontaneity of imperfect images.\u00a0 Phones are almost too good and polished these days when it comes to regular old party photos.\u00a0 These digicams hearken back to the good old days, when the back LCD screen wouldn’t let you know if you got a decent shot or not until you got home.\u00a0 So here’s some photos that maybe recall the good ol’ days of early 2000’s digital imaging.<\/p>\n
