{2012}

At the beginning of the year I made this post.
At first I was all "this is going to be easy" well, it wasn't. The fact that my phone died while I was in NJ didn't help either {since I took 90% of the photos with my phone camera since it was easier} but I managed. So here it is, From where I stand:

2012 was a pretty decent year for me so let's just hope 2013 doesn't come with any tricky stuff. I think I'll do another photo project or something like that. We'll see.
Happy New Year's Eve mates!

Every time I go to Vimeo aka I-want-to-cry-because-life-and-talented-people-who-make-videos-and-such I have a list of videos I watch more times than I should. Case in point: EF International Language Centers promo videos.

Beautiful stills, a lovely selection of typefaces and {me being me} foreign cities make this videos one of my favorites. Promoting: Vancouver, Sydney, Los Angeles, Beijing, London, Barcelona and Paris, the latter being one of my favorites. All videos directed by Gustav Johansson.

{Fifty Shades of Grey}

Actual shades.
I'm not planning on reading that book. Ever. I got bored {don't judge me} and went to the I-just-saw-the-name-on-the-bookshelf kind of thing and made a poster out of it.

Things tend to get really boring when you have free time and 0 things to do.

Been trying to paint. Not sure it's working.

{Dip Dye}

Again.
Last year I had my hair dip dyed in a really rich phthalo blue. I wanted the same color this year but my sister only found a sort of teal one.

 Gave it a try. Leslie came {like last year} and did my hair. It was really frustrating since the moment I took it out, part of it stayed blond {I had to bleach my tips hence the blond color} so I had to re-dye it. This is how it turned out.

I guess I like it? I need to give it some time to get used to the color since it's kind of light for my taste. Also, this is how my t-shirt end up looking like:

Two strikes of galaxy!
