I'd Eat You

Hey everyone,

Someone left this random super dark apple on my desk the other day... creepy!

Looks like something out of Death Note - not eating it
Last month went by so fast, its nearly Christmas already. I don't really celebrate Halloween but I do like dressing up and being creative with paints/make up and watching horrors. I'm not really the jumpy-type who cowers beneath the bucket, I'm kind of used to (not sure if that's a good thing), so I sit back and watch the carnage commence. I've been watching been The Walking Dead recently, inspired by this I come across a cool free app which give me this effect.

The app is called Zombie Booth, you can make your face into a 3D animated zombie. I will probably uninstall it after Halloween, because what is the point but its fun none the less. I quite like that even the ugliest picture can look more interesting. I've seen some really cool zombie tutorials too given an even better effect but...'ain't nobody got time for that'.
 
Did you do anything this Halloween?
 
Bye

Put The Phone Down

Hey everyone,

Someone said to me the other day that the average person can't go over a day without interacting with a digital device. From the moment I wake... To the moment I go back to bed... and all the hours, minutes and seconds in between,  I'm always with my phone. I'm sure that's true for most people.
Admittedly I'm not that bad, and I often forget or am too busy to reply or check social media straight away.

The rise of mobile technology is increasingly turning us into an ‘always on’ and ‘always elsewhere’ culture. And this change has profound consequences for the very thing that motivated the innovation in technology in the first place: Connecting with others.

Seriously, these days the back of my friends phone faces me more then my friend who was actually talking to me. We see elements of this video everyday, quite the eye opener!

Anyhoo just thought I'd share with you, hope your having a good week.

Bye!

Disconneted

Hi everyone,
Guess what’s in the box?


*Sigh* Well that would be my computer... yeah ... sad times, sad times. It’s not broken or anything I’m just selling it, the sad thing is I have not got a replacement yet. So my online life has come to a brief halt. I know I’m sounding slightly dramatic here but seriously I have no phone until further notice (well I do, but all it can do is literately call and text). Someone ‘borrowed’ my camera which is code for ‘you ain’t getting it back fool mwhahaha’ – hmmm yeah thanks for that S*****a - Sister. And this computer thing is just icing on the cake, kmt sods law this would happen after I was on such a high of being active (including Twitter-wise) and blogging more :(
It’s not all bad though, I actually find I’m more ‘social’ now then I was before; I’m actually talking to people - like to their faces *imagine that lol!*.That’s not completely true though, everybody else’s faces are in their phones/computers, so I just feel more out of place. When did this become acceptable? Before mobile phones become a big thing you would not get people taking out their post in the middle of a conversation! Can you imagine - 'Sorry give me two secs just have to check my bills'. LOL *Not that I’m bitter of course *Grrrrr* :P

Seriously though, I think all the technology available has made us undervalue the basics. Its direct, personal and truly the best and most honest way to display your personality, whether it be with friends and networking at work. Don't get me wrong, the second up and running again I'll be back to my digital self but I will definitely be utilizing my rediscovered knowledge more.
 Hopefully this set back should last too long but I’ll try to update when I can. Hope all is well.
Bye x
