Umbrella For Two

Umbrella for two

I could have used one today when I was driving back home from McDonald’s.

The sky literally opened itself and the rain poured down. I could hardly see where I was driving!

So I could have used an umbrella for two, one side for me and the other side for the McDonald bag.

The largest bead picture in the world

The largest bead picture in the world - Barack Obama
It just came to my knowledge that a Swedish company, PhotoPearls, has with the help of fourth grade students from every state in the USA and the Craft and Hobby Association, created the largest bead picture in the world!

The fourth graders used PhotoPearls® (a program where you can create a bead project from any digital photo) to create a photo mosaic of President Barack Obama made entirely of hollow plastic beads. It will be given as a gift to the president on his birthday.

The portrait was created with 372 600 pearls and measures 9 x 11 ½ foot! Amazing!

Compared to that project, my bead creations feels so small ;)

Geisha Bargain

geisha dolls - geisha dockor

I think they are supposed to look like geishas ;). Anyway, for a couple a months ago I saw these cute things at Åhléns. Back then they cost 95 SEK (~$12.39) each – waaay overpriced. Today I found them for 25 SEK (~$3.26) each. Bargain! However, when I was going to remove the sticky pricetag on the pink one, as you can see, a bit color fell off from it. Damnit! Poor quality! Thank god they were so cheap! :P

You can find these type of geishas almost at every interior design shop these days, but according to me, most of them are overpriced.

But the ones I bought can’t compete with for example this cool geisha from Tokidoki.

Wisdom tooth removal

wisdom tooth removalToday I had my first wisdom tooth removal. It was place like the on you see on the picture (not my picture) pressing against the other and causing painful tensions in my head.

I thought I would scream of the pain when they removed it, but it actually went quite well. I got all shaky when the anesthesia kicked in (taking all these anesthesia shots actually hurt more than the removal) so I had to lie down for a bit.

All in all, it went over my expectations. I have a feeling that I might have to remove the other three as well some time.

However, my jaw is hurting like hell right now and I guess I have to stick with it for a few days. And it will definetly hurt even more when the bill arrives!
