I have just returned from a 3 week trip to Canada (Whistler and Vancouver).
It has become somewhat a tradition for myself to take photos of Lego abroad but this time I wanted to try something different. Something that would require more thought and discipline.
I finally decided to take a photo a day for each letter in the alphabet and called the project Alphaphoto.
You can see all of the photos among my other Instragram photos here but below are some of my favourites in alphabetical order: (Aircraft, Coffee shop, Edge, Frozen, House, Isolated, Lift, Reflection, Underneath, Waterfall)
It was fun looking for a new letter every day. Of course it was hard some days but it was a great way to motivate myself to take notice of my surroundings and look carefully for things that I probably wouldn't have noticed or appreciated having not done this little project.
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas everyone.
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Coldplay on Grooveshark
If you are looking for some nice music to play on Christmas day, Grooveshark has plenty of playlists. It's a quick and easy setup rather than sorting through a whole bunch of CDs.
A couple of weeks ago, I received an email from Alexa on behalf of Mediacom. She wanted to know if I would be interested in test driving a Skoda Octavia Scout 4×4 103TDI
for one month. The first thing I thought was...
I love having an iPhone, especially when traveling. It's perfect in nearly every way. The one feature that I seem to be most grateful for is the ability to take decent photos.
Earlier this year I traveled to London and Paris. Along the way I was taking photos of Lego which I carried with me everywhere. Here are some of my favorite shots.
You may or may not have seen one of these funny looking bar-codes. The first time I saw one of these was in Paris earlier this year on my long-distance train tickets. I thought "wow, these are funny looking/shaped barcodes compared to Australia".
Today I learned my iPhone is keeping track of everywhere I go. In one of the latest software updates for the iPhone, Apple has included a file that is appended to with coordinates of where the iPhone is located up to 100 times a day. Essentially it keeps track of everywhere you go with your iPhone, all day every day.
Grooveshark is the best music streaming player available on the internet. If you haven't tried it, you really should. It has every song you could ever hope for and it's all free to use.
A few years ago I bought myself a coffee machine. It was pretty expensive and I wanted to make sure it would be used enough to make up for the big price tag. Since then I have used it basically every day.
For a long time I have been a fan of Vinyl Designer Toys. Some artist's designs are insane and I have always wanted to have a go at it myself.
Vinyl Designer Toys come in several different characters designs.
Finally! I got around to making myself a new website. I've been making websites for other people lately and it's nice to be back into creating stuff for myself again.
