How To: Pikachu iPhone Charger


This post will show you how to make your iPhone charger plug into a Pikachu face!


Here's what you will need:

  • your Apple charger plug (make sure it is long out of the socket and HANDLE WITH CARE)
  • a yellow sharpie
  • a black sharpie
  • a red sharpie


Remember to handle the plug very carefully so you don't shock yourself.

Step One: Take the yellow sharpie and colour in the entire plug (except the back!)


 Step Two: Mark in the position and size of the eyes using the black sharpie.


 Step Three: Add the nose down from the eyes, it's an upside down triangle. Then mark in the mouth, it's like a flattened 3. Mine is all a little wonky, I'm sure yours will be better!


Step Four: Add in cheeks using the red sharpie. They're a little smaller than the eyes and diagonally down and outwards from them. As a finishing touch I added the white in Pikachu's eyes. I'd suggest using white nail polish to put a white dot on, or Tipex!


Et voila. Mine looks all mucky and weird because I tried to spray it with a sealer after I'd finished. Don't do that, all the black ran down and he looked like Horrific Hallowe'en Pikachu.

Writer's Room - THE UPDATE



I originally wrote this post when I was sharing a house with two other people and basically kept 95% of my belongings in one awful room.

Well, now I've sort of got my shit together and live in a lovely flat; have done for almost a year now. So as a nice comeback to this blog I thought I'd update you all on my surroundings.



The Bed



Same bedding, just been made. Oh and my landlady is nice so the bed ISN'T a broken mess that gives me back issues. Tidy!


The Desk



Again, same PC/desk components, I just have a lot more room to play around with now. Plus, lookit! Nice carpeting rather than freezing cold floorboards! I love my little flat.


The Bookshelf



Still don't have even a tenth of my books here, but this is where I keep them. And yes, I still pile a bunch of crap on top of and in front of the books. But I'm getting better. I intend to sand down these bookcases and paint them a mint green soon!


Storage Areas





What? WHAT?! There's no crap shoved here there and everywhere it'll fit? Everything is relatively neatly organised in storage cupboards? Well, shiiii.


Yay for proper storage!


DVD/Game Collection

 
 Me and the boyfriend merged our collections and organised them semi-neatly on some shelves! Note Blade and Hulky on top there :D


Clothes


I have two wardrobes now and I love them. There's SPACE IN FRONT OF THEM as well. Yay! Still not the most neatly organised I know. Planning to go through and give lots away to charity because I really don't wear the majority of it. Note to self: stop assigning all belongings sentimental value.


"Dresser"

 

And instead of keeping my cosmetics and toiletries scattered haphazardly around my room I now scatter them haphazardly on the windowsill in my bathroom. I love my bathroom. Look at the tiles!


There you have it, a little update. A cleaner working area means better focus and more work gets done. I'm so happy now.
