Just Like Me

Well, except for you know, being plastic.
I took this photo on the 23rd, as I was cleaning out boxes. I remember getting this barbie when I was younger and being excited that there was a doll who was similar to me. She sat on a shelf for a long time, until I had to pack up and move. I find it kind of funny now that she's got a camera around he neck. Maybe she is like me after all. Anyways, back on the shelf she sits.
Editing consisted of the holga-ish effect on picknik.

I attempted to take a self portrait today and utilize the same edit techniques I used on yesterday's photo. Unfortunately, it turned out to be quite hideous. The focus was horrible, and somehow my eyes looked yellow. Anybody have any good self portrait tips?

Nice hair! Lol :)

@charli321
Okay, so she had a bad hair day. lol. Thanks!

[Paula]

I was gonna say.....I'm pretty sure you have WAY better hair than that! But how cool is this? And the fact that she has a camera too - serendipitous!

[melissa]

@pwallis
I really didn't think her hair was that bad, especially for being stuck in a box for about a year. lol. I'm surprised you didn't ask about the selfie. lol.

[Paula]

@mej2011 well I've resigned myself to thinking of you as Blocky Face now.....

[melissa]

@pwallis
How rude! I may have to upload the crappy selfie just so you stop thinking of me as Blocky Face. Although, weren't there Blocky Face people on Gumby?

[Paula]

@mej2011 I don't know, I got it from Jani, now it's stuck in my head:)

[melissa]

@pwallis
Jani calls me Blocky Face?

[Paula]

Don't you remember when he asked when you were going to change your Blocky Face profile picture and put up a new one? And I concurred?

[melissa]

@pwallis
Oh yeah.....Oops. lol.

[Paula]

@mej2011 Hahaha - did you think we were having conversations about Blocky Face behind your back?

[melissa]

@pwallis
Who knows....lol. No, I thought you might have had a conversation about Gumby and the blocky face people. Not my block face.

[Jani M]

Haha, this is a nice shot. Is that a plaid flannel shirt ? The hair is amazing and love the camera :) Maybe I should take a pic of my Ken ...

@pwallis LOL I think the blockyface is onto us ;-D

[melissa]

@janmaki
That is indeed a plaid flannel shirt. Your ken????? I don't think I want to know.

[Paula]

@janmaki crap. Who are we going to talk about now?

[melissa]

@pwallis
Exactly. I am a bit confused myself. So much so, that last night I almost typed "That is indeed a plaid blocky face" instead of shirt. lol.

[Paula]

@mej2011 lol - last night Paul was talking to me about what I was cooking for dinner while I was commenting on photos and I commented "Gorgeous texture and dinner!" Hahaha! And sweet plaid on Barbie btw, I could totally hang with this girl. Especially if she's just like you:)

[melissa]

@pwallis
So did your dinner have gorgeous texture? Fish maybe?
I don't know Miss Barbie is a bit quiet for my liking.

[Paula]

@mej2011 well it was pizza, so it had some pretty amazing textures. I should have posted a shot of it.

[melissa]

@pwallis
Pizza, yum. Yes you should have. I fear I may be reduced to taking food shots before my year is up.
