iPhone case

Like I said before, I’m slow to adopt trends but I usually eventually do. I recently got on the iPhone bandwagon for the first time. It’s quite a handy device, isn’t it?! But this is not a conversation about the device rather this is a conversation about the case for it.

I wanted something unique, something that fit my personality. So when I saw my sister’s case I knew I needed one too. Now I know you are probably wondering how can it be unique if my sister already has it but the answer is: design.  You see the case is like a cross-stitch canvas and you cross- stitch the design. I used inspiration from the Japanese sashiko (刺し子) art form to come up with my design. I like it a lot and it was super fun to make!

Theater Room

Recently there hasn’t been that much happening in the guest house.  You know, the same ol’ same ol’ (although the number of “guests” is continuing to rise!)

However, in September we did have one very big and good change to the house!  A theater room!  With a big screen and a projector we are able to watch movies in a quiet space! Yay!

Of course the regular lounge has a pretty big screen but with everyone eating and making dinner and stopping in there after work to chat and say hi, it can get pretty noisy.

The theater room has a great big screen on the wall and a surround system which gives you that, “I’m watching a movie!” kind of feel.  It’s almost like you are in a movie theater albeit the fairly hard sofa.

As soon as it opened my boyfriend and I rented a movie (Blueray too!) and watched it in the theater room!  It was great!  Before, whenever we rented movies together we always watched them on my computer in my room.  It’s a completely different experience!  And above all this, an iPhone can wireless play from it’s iTunes which means I can study in there as well while listening to music!  I have no stereo in my room now so that makes me the most happy.

Thanks Oakhouse!
