people having tiny houses and they make them want to look like a 17th century castle with velvet pillows and 'golden' decorations everywhere

Omg ME 😅😂 Though following on what you say about quality materials, I am so snobbish about real fabrics! Wool, silk, linen, leather, I hate plastic!

With some items I'm very happy with plastic...🤔

Hahah well yes doh, plastic is very useful for some things!

LOL! I don't think I mean 'you' or 'your style', I've seen some of your living space and it's more Scandinavian minimalist, right?! I mean houses that are overly filled with gimmicks and wallpaper and tapestry... I'll show some pics if I find one of those again :D

And YES - we can go shopping together!!! We can do the snobbish 'oh, ugh, plastic... polyester... nasty!' gestures all day and understand each other :D

Thanks for getting my head from work, loved this post!

I have the same phone image edit thing, sounds so familiar (and so annoying for people surrounding you😇)

Hahaha - glad I could give you something to read during work :D And yes, photographers are absolutely awful company most of the time :') Always 'on the lookout' or with our heads in screens to perfect the image :-)

Dancing without music?

You made me think of this...

LOL!!!! Yes, that's ME!!! Thanks for that @riverflows, very funny :D

aliexpress?

Ok, so this is a like a cheap Amazon and I have not heard of it???

I am the ultimate poor person pleasure spender. I must check this out so I can feel rich once in a while too!!!

PS, I get quite a bit of satisfaction out of playing around with smartphone photo editors too 😋

Hahaha @futuremind - YES! Download the app and step into the world of cheap and useless although sometimes useful shit!

My tip is to only go for the products with a more elaborate (photo) description and/or some reviews or you get something that only 'looks like' (not even close!) the product image. Or you get something you really didn't want or need :P

Enjoy and let me know if you found something good :D And which photo editors do you use often?

I'm going to check it out for last minute Christmas shopping 😎

This is the editor I tend to use the most. It's the stock android editor. I feel like it works pretty nice for a stock option, but I haven't tried much else either. Seems like android apps are so bundled with ads these days I barely bother with them anymore.

Thanks for the information. I'll be sure to share my finds. Might even make a post describing the shopping experience. 😃

Hehe, yes, please do! Delivery times can be a bit longer, you need to be patient sometimes, but for that price... Even taking the tram in my case from my house to the shop is already covering the cost of some products :')

I'm on iPhone by the way, I tend to use Photoshop Editor the most - am used to that on Desktop already so it's an easy and seamless cross-over for me :-)

And I thought my 0930 lazy mornings were bad, i feel much better now 😉

LOL! Nope, you can always ask me, I'll probably have started my day waaaay later than you did :')

We buy the "bootlegos" from Alic Express and sell them at the shop and people eat it up. It's pretty ridiculous to be honest just how cheap some of that stuff is...lol

I am so happy you participated. Thanks so much for your support in my little writing experiment!!!

Thanks @blewitt for inviting me to participate! Glad you found the pleasures of AliExpress as well... :')

How the hell is there free shipping on most of my stuff!?!?! Makes no sense!!! lol

I am super thrilled with the engagement on this thus far!

YES I KNOW! Because the planes are 'flying anyway'?

Yes, you did well organizing this challenge! It's fun, glad you pushed me to do it :P

Lol. Bingo. That’s it!!! Gotta be the planes!

Thank you my friend. Glad you jumped in. We all need to push each other here a bit. 😉

LOL I love all of your guilty pleasures. I'm guilty of making fun of people too ahaha and the getting up late part!

Hahahaha - making fun of people and feeling totally judgemental and thinking you're right... It's fun ;-)

Dancing with or without music


Sometimes I'm banging my head even though there's no music on. I could bang my head just because I (unconsciously) hear a clock ticking and I'm reacting to the sound.

Psycho :)

I totally am :')

LOL!!

Did I miss you headbanging or did you miss all the clocks in Krakow @soyrosa? 😅

Hahaha! I especially hate clocks in silent rooms... Drives me crazy.

Thanks - so much for sharing!

I actually know the feeling to have something in the background while doing stuff. Even while drawing - I have an podcast or an audiobook on. I also turn on Netflix and just listen to it. I‘ve heard so many times that it is a bad habit, but calling it a guilty pleasure doesn‘t make it sound too bad. 😅

Yeah, people are quick to judge a habit, but you know what works for you - so absolutely you should do it :D I've once read some pretty awesome essays (can't find them now) of about 10 artists who were explaining all the 'useless' things they do so they are / can become creative :-) It's totally fine. It's just a process we have to go through as creative people... Thanks for stopping by @artbunny!

Buy cheap SHIT from aliexpress :D aliexpress is my good friend :D it is sometimes unbelievable that they can send you something that costs 1$ with free shipping. almost all my photo equipment (not camera and lenses) is from alie :D
also you could check Gearbest, i got my crazy yotaphone and yi sports camera for 100$ each few years ago.

Every day that starts at 7-8AM is not good day :D

I "watch" a lot of not that great series just because "multitasking" and netflix made me lazy to "look" for stuff, on netflix you just click it and it is on :D

Ohhhh Gearbest sound like my next money trap :')

Yes, Netflix and it's autoplay and auto suggestions... Or even 'watch it again' recommended... They make it easy, don't they :D

sometimes i even hate myself when i think about what i been watching :D there are so many things that are better but i need to "look" for them on the web and netflix is just a recommended click away :D

I too like to buy cheap shit from ebay... though I usually make use of it for diy LOL

Ohhh me too! I've bought a lot of stuff just so I can make something else with it :D

I'll dance with you anytime, sista! ;)

YES!!! <3
