Collage #3 for Project 365.

It's almost my birthday (3 more sleeps!) and I am still taking pics for Project 365 what an effort {blowing on a hooter and waving arms}. Hurrah Hurrah!!
Project 365 is the aim to take a pic a day for a whole year. I know most people are using this as a way to better their photography skills and learn how to take better pics. I'm just trying to find something interesting to take a pic of. Seriously, a milk bottle? Ok, that pic is because every year around my birthday I try to find a carton of milk with my Birth date as the expiry date. Odd? Yes. I know. But it's become somewhat of a tradition for me and I must never miss doing this around my birthday!
Other things done this last 9 days worth of pics are: Get a blood test for my Diabetes, help Felicity make Cooper's First birthday invites one night after work,(40 invites- 3 hours start to finish. Not bad!), washing (I need to remember the every day too!), my birthday bottle, work lunch with the boys, spending the whole day on Alicia's sooo comfy lounge watching foxtel, Awesome!, Kung Hei Fat Choy! (Happy Chinese New Year!) at Will's house, Australia Day in the city with Alicia and my new Uber Cool apple lamp. Yep, an apple with a bulb inside. Pure genious!
Happy Hump Day!

Project 365 collage #2

Wow, I am 20 days down and still taking pics! What an effort! This week I have done some more exciting things so there are more interesting pics :) The highlights this week included a shopping trip to Newtown with Willy, seeing Felicity and Cooper 3 times, getting my hair cut, having brunch with Alicia and Felicity at Cafe Taste {YUM!} and my first Stampin Up party of 2009.

I can't believe I'm still going, after 20 days! I like viewing these pics in the collages too, its a cool overview of the last 9 days!

Project 365

Is anyone doing this? Have you heard about Project 365? If you just got your December issue of CK (like me, on January 7- gotta love the Australian distributers- isn't it called the December issue for a reason? And what's with the new format, I can't sort them by date on the spine, cos there's no spine any more!! GRRR!!) then you might still just have enough time to jump on the band wagon and you wont be too far behind on pictures.

I'm pretty sure I am SO NOT going to last with this one. You're supposed to take a picture a day for a year and make 'em all up into one album- the Kit of the Month from CK. Unfortunately they didn't order enough kits and their order system crashed so there is a big Hoo Haa but anywho... not the point. Taking a pic a day is really hard. Especially when you are me and lead a pretty uninteresting life. Highlighted in the fact that one day this week I took a pic of an Ice Cream Punnet! An Ice Cream Punnet people... not a cute pic of a day at the beach, or a beautiful sunset... Ice Cream. Maybe that will be interesting in 10 years when the packaging changes, but right now... boredom-ville. Here's my first 9 pics to prove that I did take a pic a day (this is for you Yvette). I blurred out my work building sign so you can't stalk me, BTW.

The tree is finally down too. Now I can get around to putting normal things on my new TV unit, not just Christmas stuff. You know what I want- one of those giant Apocathary jars from Freedom. Love them {hearts emitting from head}. They are way cool.

Tomorrow's goal- take an interesting pic and don't resort to a pic of something I scrapped/stamped.

Mosaic Of Me...

Here's a fun photo game to play!!

I am a regular reader of the orangebeautiful blog, but I followed the link to this game off the Jen in a Nutshell blog. She is super funny and I love reading candid blogs like hers, I just wish she would post more often!

Anywho, this is a cool game where you answer 12 questions about yourself, and paste your answers into Flickr to get this fun photo mosaic of your life! Instructions are at the end of this post.

So here is the Mosaic of Me.. (Can you guess any of the questions?! Prob Not!.. BTW, It's poor Jason Statham in th middle who lost his head! Oh well, the best bits are still there ;) {wink!})

I can't get the photo credits to work though, hope people don't mind I used their pics.. you can search for them on flickr anyway, using my answers!

And here are my answers that led to the mosaic...

1. What is your first name? (Charlotte)
2. What is your favorite food? (Mexican)
3. What high school did you attend? (Grafton High School)
4. What is your favorite color? (Sea Green)
5. Who is your celebrity crush? (Jason Statham)
6. Favorite drink? (Milo)
7. Dream vacation? (New York)
8. Favorite dessert? (Chocolate Mousse Cake)
9. What do you want to be when you grow up? (Travel Agent)
10. What do you love most in life? (my family)
11. One word to describe you? (creative)
12. Your Flickr name? (The Hours Between)

Wanna play?: Type your answer to each of the above questions into Flickr's search. Using only the images that appear on the first page, choose your favorite and copy and paste each of the URL’s into the Mosaic Maker (3 columns, 4 rows)... Enjoy!

I had fun doing it! I'd love to try it for other questions too! There are so many beautiful pics on Flickr!
