Sorting time!

I guess this would only make sense if you've taken a marketing course.
And, if you know anything about Harry Potter, which I'm sure most everyone already does.
But yeah! I'm supposed to study for my marketing exam at this very moment, and I just felt like making this 'communication style chart' with a twist.

Toodles.

:/

Katie Sokoler is totally right.
Anytime you feel down, jumping on your bed
and blasting fun music, really helps.

chrysanthemums

(At least I think these are chrysanthemums) I bought some neat fabric today! And procrastinated by taking photos with it and pretending I was lying in a field of flowers. Big project presentation due tomorrow.

This is so tacky.

APPLE IS AT IT AGAIN


I was supposed to be starting my essay, you see.

HI 5

HIGH FIVE GLOVES!
These are my greatest creation ever. Cause, when I wave at someone, it simply says "hi" or I can engage someone in a high five. Or high ten, rather.

Video demonstrating the gloves in action will be uploaded in the future.

HARRY P

So it's my friend Tea's birthday today,
and I promised I'd knit her a Gryffindor scarf. (I think)

I even found the Harry Potter font for downloading!
It's called "Harry P" for anyone interested.
So I wrote her a 'birthday card'
in Dumbledore's name,

and I didn't have one of those legit wax seals,
so I just used a metal ring and poured red
acrylic paint into it, to let it dry. Works just as well!

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd TA DA!
Now if only I had an owl to deliver it.

Also, I wrapped it in brown paper, but I didn't have any actual brown paper,
and ended up cutting apart a bread bag. Also, works perfectly! It's like magic.

NO PANTS PICTURES

Sweet! Improv Toronto used 3 of my photos on their brand new updated site! http://improvintoronto.com/2011/01/24/no-pants-subway-ride-2011-2/

It's an honour.

SWOT

Have you ever made a SWOT analysis?It's basically a chart to organize certain aspects of a company. ANYWAYS. I have to do this for marketing class, but it's really not that much fun...

And I'm sure you've made a cootie catcher before!
(Im not sure why they're called that.)

So here's a special SWOT analysis cootie catcher!



it works perfectly
and it definitely makes business class more fun for me.
MAKE YOUR OWN COOTIE CATCHER
(template)

Or a SWOT cootie catcher, if you've got
marketing class like me :)

V DAY

Alright, so I've cut out as many hearts today as I could, and I'm going to leave them all over the subway and give them out to my class, cause that was always fun back in public school!
I gave them smiley faces, and people can just pick which ever colour they'd like. I just want to get the point out that the way people tend to treat Valentine's day is silly. Why share it with only one person?
Show everyone you love that you love them! Please? I'll love you if you do so.

"BORONTO"

You know what really bothers me?
Yes, I'm going to tell you.

The idea that a certain city/area/place is "boring". Perhaps the culture is different, different from what you may be used to, perhaps you have heard dull stories, and perhaps you've had a dull experience.

But what can cause you to judge an entire city, and deem it terminally dull? Or boring, rather.

I was born in Toronto, I live in Toronto. Not saying I'll live here all my life, I'd like to experience new places, but not because I think this place is boring. Far from it.

Most multicultural city in the world? Canada's largest capital? You think the mortality rate is due to boredom here?

I believe that if someone is bored in this city, (and well, any city!) you aren't looking in the right place. Or you don't even expect to find fun.

If you're creative, adventurous and open minded, you'll find fun! It's as easy as that :) Have fun with the people who you're with, and just simply enjoy the fact that you're in a new city! (If you happen to be visiting.) And well, if you're from here, try something or go somewhere you haven't before.

I think any place can be fun, dammit. Any place and every place. You're the one who creates it.

SO SHUT UP ABOUT SAYING THIS CITY IS BORING. YOU'RE THE BORING ONE.

And here's a picture of my friend Emi playing Twister on the subway. Does this happen in your city? Make it happen.

DOG DANCING

It's 1am. I'm dancing with Floss. He didn't seem to mind, actually

PHOTOCARDS

I decided to send some postcards wishing people Happy Holidays,
but I didn't have any postcards at all.And digging through old film photos, you find quite suitable postcards.
I just cut the sky out of this one,

and then wrote my letter on the back!
and placed the sky into the envelope, and sent it through air mail!
I think I'm actually going to do this from now on;
take film photos just with the thought that I'll make them
one-of-a-kind postcards.

SILENT NIGHT

Youtube holiday video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSmOTcKNXsY
muahahaha bad joke.

SWEET STACHE

My dad got some weird 'cappucino' flavoured candy canes,
and since they're brown, I figured they'd make for good mustaches.
Just use some tape, and maybe even a red pom pom,
and you've got a holiday stache :} )

PROFILE FUN

Again, Katie Sokoler is an inspiration. This site too that I stumbled on: http://mashable.com/2010/12/14/new-facebook-profile-hacks/ gives fun ideas on what people have done to customize their facebook profile a little bit. I tried it with pacman? It's not as easy as it looks, I must say. The template crops the photos so you have to put everything off to the side... anyways! Presto. Pacman profile.



This took me way too long, but again, just procraftinating.
Not like I have any work to do, it is the holidays..

CUDDLY LASER BEAMS

What if laser beams could be cuddly?Well now they are!
It's not dangerous if you stare at them too long,
and you can install them pretty much anywhere.

Just watch out if you have a cat. They tend to de-activate lasers really easily.

DOODLE TECHNIQUES

My friend linked me to Vi Hart's youtube page, and she has the most epic (procraftinating) doodles I have ever seen. But they're genius mathematical doodles! Take a look at her videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/Vihart#p/u/1/DK5Z709J2eo

PHOTOBOOTH PACMAN


I absolutely love Color me Katie and I'm always inspired by her.
When I saw her street art pacman, I tried making my own
and I went to a photobooth in the subway and turned pacman
and all the ghosts sideways so it looks like a game is going on in one photo strip!

One day I hope to own a photobooth.

I posted it on her wall and she replied! I am star struck.
