What happens when an amateur photographer goes from a point and shoot to a DSLR?

Lots of blurry, underexposed pictures, as I've found out. :P

I've recently gotten my hands on a Nikon D40 and now have begun to be picture crazy, finally having a camera of my own. Having recently taken a trip to Japan through EF tours, I came back with a bunch of pictures. Subjects include people, landscape, signs, and odd ends and bits, so pretty much "anything" goes.

Currently a piano performance major here at the local university. Aspirations include learning more Japanese, possibly the JET program, and having a studio of my own that I teach.

Oh, and a 55-200 lens.
