My New Phone

Posting may be a little sporadic this week due to my birthday celebrations! I'm pretty tired already to tell you the truth (getting old!). I wanted to show you some of the lovely gifts I got, although haven't had time to photograph them. I got a vintage birdcage from my sister, which I adore and it's quite freaky because I was going to do a post on that last week, but didn't have time. I'm not sure what I'm going to keep in it yet, maybe my Harajuku Lovers fragrances or a doll or something! My nephew suggested "birdies"! Like I was an idiot for considering anything else. "Put it outside, open the little door, the birdies will fly in, then shut the door and the birdies stay in"! Didn't have the heart to tell him, I didn't actually want it for use as a 'bird' cage!
My parents gave me a new phone, which was totally unexpected. I'm not really a gadget girl, I can appreciate them, but prefer dolls, makeup and shoes! However I love this phone and really needed it because my other one sucked! It just came out last month and the guy didn't want to sell it because he didn't know very much about it (I hate 'phone shop guys', they treat women like idiots, but anyway...) My Mum said "it's pink, so shiny that she can use it to apply her lipstick and the keyboard is cool, she'll want it"!
As you can see, it's square and looks like a makeup compact, I've shown it here with a lipstick so you get an idea of size. It's pale pink and has a 'qwerty' computer keyboard (I've never been one for predictive texting, so no more pressing the button 3 times to get the letter you want)! I pretty much only use my phone for texting or as a mirror-so this is perfect. My first text message took 15 minutes to write because I had no idea how to work it, but I'm getting the hang of it now and it has a camera and mp3 player too (one gadget at a time for me though!). More pressy pics later in the week!
