sure  :)

-edit- Ive noticed that if the weather is gray and i take pics of snow etc the snow gets a shade of pink. It is very easy to see if i take a picture of a dark object like a car etc and everything around it is white. It can be edited away, but still. If I use an older lens from my dads analogue Nikon the colours are perfect and the pictures are sharper.... too sharp.

The cheap kit lens are cheapo :)
Try to use preset whitebalance - refer to manual. Don't forget to reset it, you'll find wrong preset worse than auto WB a bit off. If the lightning conditions change (colorbalance of the light), reset the preset or switch to auto .

It'll improve when you buy a real lens.
