The Kitten Covers

I've had this bookmarked for a little while but only just discovered it again. Worth a blog for the humor aspect. Everyone loves musical kittens right?

Genius. The Kitten Covers.

Art Directors Club

I found these thoroughly amusing and clever.

Illustrative letters

Oh I do like illustrative alphabets, especially nature-esque ones.

Pendennis trees

It was a lovely day today. Thus, I did not stay in and do uni work. Instead I went sea swimming, sat in the sun on the beach and then went for a walk around Pendennis. I didn't have a camera with me but my phone did a fairly decent job of capturing some trees.

Genius

I have only just learnt how to type a hash symbol on Mac, as there isn't a default key for it. Due to an increase in Twitter usage over the last year, not just for me but for many, it seems silly that there isn't a key for it. Maybe there will be on the next generation of Macs. So anyway, you press alt + 3 to get a #.

But there's plenty of other symbols I occasionally use, such as hearts - on Facebook you just do <3 and it turns into a heart but this doesn't work on Twitter and the whole internet in general.

Thus, this website is amazing.

Halloween

So, we did Halloween yesterday as Saturday seemed a good night to dress/make-up up and it was a very good night. Ellinor, Sarah, Alice and I went face paint crazy and did day of the dead style skull make up. Whilst some other friends were the Addams Family.

And we're doing it again on Monday! Except, potentially the four of us girls will be members of Kiss…

Tintin

So Ellinor and I went to see Tintin this evening, it was pretty good. Mostly for the amazing animation, scene transitions and the lovely title sequence at the beginning. I love a film with a good title sequence. Unfortunately as the film is only just out, it's unlikely I'm going to be able to find the title sequence online, but here's the trailer.

And here's a neat little unofficial title sequence:
