Blybe and Lomo!

It was an exciting and non-boring day for me today! Filled with lots of interesting things....
First of all, I was stepping out the front door to take some photo restorations I'd done, over to a neighbours house, and found a package addressed to me on the door step that looked suspiciously like the shape of a Blybe doll. So I took the photos over and when I came back I opened the package and there she was!


She's in a tatty old white dress at the moment so will find some new clothes and possibly new hair soon!

After that Lisa rang up about bridesmaid dresses and then Denise and I went up to the Library. After the Library it was just on 12 midday which was the time my Lomographs were ready to be picked up. Well the negatives anyway as I was going to scan them onto the computer. So that took up the rest of the afternoon.
Here are a few photos from my first roll of film taken with my Holga.

Yay!

Today I bought my Blythe...well actually Blythe clone 'Blybe' (which is a cheaper version). So hopefully it should be arriving in a couple of days.
Most owners have names for them and like dressing them up and taking photos. Also creating their own clothes etc. Mine doesn't have a name yet, I don't think Blybes come pre-named either.
I've already found some cool clothes and wigs on ebay for it. There are also some cheap Blybes on there so I might be tempted to get another one...have one retro and one goth. But no...maybe I'll just wait until I have enough money to get a real Blythe. Although not one thats more than $200 (as they can get to $1000's, especially for the older ones).

Anyway, here is one cute cardigan I've found on ebay which I might get....it has a little pod hat!!



I also like this hat found on ebay....



Along with heaps of cool goth boots. And various retro clothes....I'm not sure what clothes it will be coming with so I'll have to wait and see!

Bands Bands Bands

On Friday I went to my 2nd 'Big Day Out' music festival. I went along with Steve this time (last time it was with Angela) and we got rather sunburnt and rather wet from the rain that came later on in the day. It turned into a big poncho fest, everyone streaming for the stalls which sold them. Luckily when I got to one of the stalls I was there in time to get the last poncho.
Anyway, after that it got me thinking about this this T shirt I have that I used to write on (with fabric paint) all the bands and concerts I've ever been too. I think that there may be no more room to write on it so decided I shall write a list on here.

2011

Well its 2011! What will come in this year ahead?

Maybe I will find a job, or maybe (from July) I'll do a web development course.
Steve has a few months more to go of Uni, and when he finishes he will find work until I finish my course (if I do that) and then he hopes to find a job within Geology, probably in Australia.

In March it will be our 7th year Anniversary (of being together)and in April Lisa is getting married! I'm going to be her bridesmaid. So at the moment were trying to sort out our dresses. Mines going to probably be a dark (midnight) blue.

I've finally discovered a cheap (replica) Blythe doll on trade me so I may be buying that in the next day or so! I was going to custom make one from parts off ebay but it may be cheaper to get this one (which is also custom made). There are lots of amazing clothes to buy for them on ebay, as well as custom made wigs and eyes.
