"I can't stop looking at myself!" kind of makeover!

Saturday i had the day off work so Zoe (cousin) and Alisha (sister) came over to play and stay the night. During the day we went to Tamar Island, which was alot of fun, interesting, and allowed me to plan for an assignment about excursions in local settings.

ANYWAYS..... At night we had a make-over party. I dolled up the girls and we took glamour shots:

Zoe's makeover shots.

Alisha's makeover shots.

I gave zoe a mirror so she could see what i'd done and i didn't get it back til bed time! She ran all over the house repeatedly saying, "Oh i just can't stop looking at myself - i'm so pretty/ beautiful!". It was hilarious!

Alisha looked gorgeous too, she was grinning the entire time!
If you want to see the runway modelling the girls did after their makeovers see Bekah's Blog> 'Runway'. There's a video of it.

The Exquisite Corpse

No... this post is not about an amazng dead person's body!!


Exquisite Corpse is what sparked off the surrealist movement in art history. [You know that famous painting of the melting clocks? Thats surrealism]. It began with a group of eccentric men doodling in the underground art scene. Have you ever played the game where someone begins a story, folds the paper over and the next prson continues writing the story and by the end, when you unfold the paper, you have a ridiculously hilarious nonsense story?? Well Exquisite Corpse is just like that only instead of writing a story, you're drawing a picture.


Anyways... So after learning about this is my art tutorial, i went home and played the game with Bekah.
Here's what we came up with, against what the surrealists came up with:

Pretty freaky huh?
Hehe, I think Bek and I were definately surrealists once upon a time :P
