So theres a little few things i want to gush about in this post, I can't say for sure this will even be the last one today!I'm really enjoying doing this now that I've gotten into the habit of it!
First and foremost something I've been super excited about and anticipating all week is about to happen tomorrow(I hope) and while everyone has been saying "don't do it" to me I'd like to state to all the Windows phone haters out there that unlike, it seems everyone else, I love Windows 8 on a phone!!
I was due an upgrade there about a year ago and I dislike android phones. Now I know obviously theres way more apps etc. but I suppose that's not so important to me! I just don't like the interface on samsung phones, or sony phones, or really any of them! I just don't think they look pretty! And honestly I couldn't bring myself to give in and buy an Iphone. I also have an ipod...so I gave in a wee bit whatevs...so anything I want on appstore I can get on that!Honestly I don't even have any apps on my ipod anyway!I lose it half the time and it's dead most of the other half!
So anyway long story short, I had this upgrade and I went in one day, hungover off my head, and I am notorious for making snap, rash and often terrible ideas when I'm hungover. So I went in and was browsing not really knowing what I wanted and I saw something pretty. A bright blue phone, with beautiful lines and a big petty screen and i was drawn to it. So I read the specs, 8mp camera (I like photography and this was good for a phone, at the time, I know now that you can get way better cameras on phones) and (I may have been swayed by the name here) Dre Beats audio and really it was just so dammmmmn purdy and in my hungover state I wanted it!. So I called the shop assistant and asked her how much it was with my upgrade(turns out it was free) and was shocked when she said "I'll check for you but I really wouldn't get that phone, nobody likes it!". Imagine a shop assistant slamming a product like that? Honestly I should have rethought my choice then but on this occasion I am so very glad I didn't.
I asked her why and when her reply was that she was an apple girl not a windows head I shrugged, said I hated apple and signed on the dotted line, I walked away with my shiny new HTC 8X and I never regretted it.
I turned it on and saw the beautiful interface and I fell in love.
Instantly.
And I never fell out of love. Sure there are fewer apps but it's so pretty pretty pretty and apps don't bother me too much.
And the camera rocks and it was just wonderful owning my baby.
And then something terrible happened. I drop my phone on a regular basis and my poor oul phone couldn't take that one last drop. I dropped it directly onto the edge of a curb and it cracked right along the screen.
I genuinely mourned it and I still get upset when I think about it(I'm a giant nerd I know) and so when I went to get it repaired and they told me it would cost 270 euros to fix my screen I died inside a little bit. I couldn't afford that. So I went on the hunt and researched windows phones of the moment. I eventually settled on the Nokia Lumia 920 and I found one online for 200 squidoles and I pulled the trigger. And it's going to be here tomorrow!!!!!!
I am so EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like a kid on christmas. I'm not sure I'll sleep tonight!
But anyway my point is that seeing as my poor old point and shoot gave up the ghost recently and my phone of the moment is a nokia prehistoric and I keep saving for the dslr I will one day own but life is expensive, I currently don't have any camera (except for a poloroid) in my life at the moment and it's killing me little by little. Anyhoo my point is expect photos from tomorrow on!
For example the other thing I'm excited about is I got a new haircut yesterday! I'd like to share it! I didn't change it much. I got a little cut off it and a side fringe cut in but I also took my undercut up a bit higher on one side so now you can see it even when my hairs down! I think it's pretty but tomorrow I'll be able to put it up for the world(the two or three people who may see it)to see!
And I'm going to a 1920's party tomorrow night so that too will be fun!
I might post my make up before we go!
And I get to wear a pretty dress which is always good!
I will try my best to contain myself and not post again today.
I can't say I will suceed.
