This week's goal: new lens!

So my goal for this week is this: FINALLY use that lens I bought back in 2007! On the recommendation of a friend, I bought a 50mm f/1.8 lens over a year ago. I've never figured it out, but my goal this week is to get it on my camera, figure out how it works, and take some pictures! I'll post the results after I've played with it a bit.
Deadline: Next Saturday, January 10.
