Day 340 - My Pretty Darn Cool Mitten Gloves...

So it would seem that today I have taken the lazy option and done the "take a picture of yourself in the mirror" thing. Ah well. I kinda like the colours in it anyway... yay for my gloves!! They're mittens and gloves at the same time, pretty darn cool.

Day 174 - And So My Face Is Revealed

Oh dear... it would seem I've Photoshopped another photo... :(

Okay so I wanted to take a self portrait, but I kinda hate my face, so I'm rarely satisfied with them unless my head is not in them... if you look at all my other self portraits on this blog, I'm pretty sure my head is chopped out of all of them. So I'm not happy using pictures of myself unless I've done some fancy editing on them... as vain as it is.

Anyways this one was taken against a white wall, so with just a little contrast boost it looked like I'd taken it in a studio or something woop woop! Dislike this, but there's nothing much I can do about that...

Have a nice day!!

Day 173 - Edit Like Crazy!

So there are days when you're doing Project #365, and you just don't know what to take a picture of... so you doodle in your notebook, take a photo of it and then edit it like crazy on Photoshop to make it look even slightly more interesting... yup! That's what I did today!I figured this doodle represents my lack of inspiration...

Despite the way I look in the overlay of this picture I had a good day today! My first thought after waking up this morning (well after the expected "oh my gosh I am in so much pain why did I walk up various mountains with very little suncream on it burns so much and i can't move my neck but wow that was a fun day... ouch" thought) was "hey! I want to make some brownies today!". So that's what I did today - make brownies! :)

Day 172 - Spontaneous!

I believe the best adventures are spontaneous.

At about 11:30pm last night a spontaneous decision was made for two besties to hike up Donard together. It turned out to be a good plan. :) :)

Yep! I had a good day!!

I am fortunate enough to live in a very beautiful part of the world... you can see, my hometown Newcastle, beside the sea in this picture. The mountains of Mourne really do sweep down to the sea!
So my friend Mich and I decided to hike up the tallest mountain in our country (sounds much more impressive than it actually is). The natural thing to do at the top of this mountain would be to blow bubbles - so we did!
I love this picture below... I set the camera on a rock on self timer. The angle it's set at was an accident, but I think it works really well!
So I'm really rather sunburnt now, and in quite a bit of pain, but in good spirits! I'm looking forward to the rest of my summer now... :D :D and that's exciting!! It feels like summer has begun now.

Day 151 - Seventeen.

Well... today is my birthday!! :D I am now officially 17! Finally! Haha I'm the last one out of my friends in my year to turn 17! I figured because it was my birthday I would take a wee self portrait. It's a little different... but meh! Took me a few attempts to get it right... My parents got me a printer for my birthday which saves me a lot of bother! It's great actually! :) I know, I'm a dork, getting excited because I got a printer... but that's just me I guess! So yeah I've had a good day! Really haven't done that much, just kinda lazed about the house... I took it easy on the whole revision front, took a bit of a break! Just did a few English notes.

It feels weird saying I'm seventeen... it only really sunk in when i opened my present to see those lovely "L" plates... can't wait!!

Day 93 - You Are Awesome!

Today I was home all day as my usual Saturday activities were cancelled, so I stayed at home all day. I therefore decided to experiment on the whole 'self-portrait' front. This one is the best one I took. It's probably not the greatest ever, but I kinda like the simplicity of it!This might seem a bit random, but I just want to give a big shout out to my best friends (you know who you are!) 'cause they truly are awesome and I love them mucho! Dunno where I'd be without them =) love yous. I guess I just wanted to say this, because sometimes you just need to remind people how awesome they are... and you are awesome.

Peace out!
