Spring, overalls & Blythe!

Hello, Spring! Welcome back! What better way to celebrate than to wear black overalls all day, and receive new Blythe lovelies! I had fun deboxing her today, I haven’t deboxed a Blythe since I got Soda last year, because I usually buy them second hand. I forgot how much fun it was! I’m not sure what to call her yet… how does Audrey sound?

Photo credit goes to Malcolm - probably the only boy I know who doesn’t mind my doll habit.

The night ends here.

Forget your name, forget your fear.

Outtakes.

For every photo that appears here, at least 10 don’t. This is a collection of some of those photos that didn’t quite make it at the time I took them.

What? You say I’m being lazy and unoriginal and failing to take new photos to upload? You ask me what happened to CapSty and Sophiatron? Well I spit in your eye and offer you these. Also, will the excuse that I am now a corporate whore (or at least, a hospitality whore) do anything to further my argument?

In either case, they are in chronological order.

Back in Canberra.

Canberra is warming up, finally! I don’t much like the winters here. I’ve been here about two weeks now, and finally feel settled, ready for the new semester.

This cute and creepy girl came up to me during Bush Week, selling raffle tickets.

I attended my first college sports event, and felt a strange sense of college spirit.

Malcolm and I indulge in silly photo-taking.

Hope you’re all doing well!

Malcolm came to visit last week.

We went to Paddy’s Markets. I fell in love with a wooden dollhouse (which I didn’t buy, because I am saving for Manchester).

We had tasty lunch.

And then we visited Myer.

Last week in Canberra...

I’m going to Sydney tomorrow for a month or so. Here are some of the photos I’ve taken in the last week around Canberra, which I thought I should post before I leave (even though I already had a post planned - ah well, that will be done tomorrow). I think ANU campus is really beautiful, don’t you agree?

I know you must be sick of my leaves photos now… but it really is lovely around here.

This is some graffiti in front of the Street Theatre. I always smile when I walk past it, and I’ve wanted to take a photograph of it for the longest time.

I bought this little guy from the Art&Craft store. I have a larger one at home. This one’s only about 12.5 cm tall.

I’ll be packing my bags tomorrow. While in Sydney, I’m planning on learning some new skills, do lots of craft, draw cute girls and boys, and hopefully get a tripod for Spencer so I can take more photos. I expect this to be updated a lot in the holidays, so look out!

And it was all yellow

I haven’t taken Blythe photos in a very long time, not since I got Spencer actually, which is a mighty shame, because he does such an amazing job! So today, to take a break from studying, Parker, Spencer, Malcolm and I walked around ANU campus.

Everything is very brown and yellow at the moment. It’s getting colder too. The day was also a little overcast today, which is why these shots came out so dark. I’m still learning how to fiddle with ISO and things. (Any tips?)

The dress Parker is wearing I actually bought from someone who works at the Chemical School in ANU, which is sort of neat. (ANU mini Blythe meet, anyone?). Anyway sorry about the Parker spam, she is just so cute! There are more photos over at my Flickr, but this one is my favourite.

Hope you guys are having a nice weekend as well! :)
