Shake it like a Polaroid Picture




How cool is this picture?

I was skimming through my Google Reader posts (all 123 of them) and stopped at a post by Melissa Walker (author of the Violet on the Runway YA series that I reviewed not too long ago). The Polaroid like pictures caught my eye. Her new site I Heart Daily has a feature on how to make them. Go check it out!

So, the cute kitty in the picture is Joey. My lovely little furry friend. I realized that she hadn't had a chance to be shown off on this blog. She deserves the spotlight every now and then. :)

YA quick reviews (Violet on the Runway Series)

Violet on the Runway Violet on the Runway by Melissa C. Walker
The first book in the series was lots of fun and well paced. Violet's plunge into the modeling scene seemed realistic. I liked that it wasn't overly glamorized and that we get to see the ugly side of the modeling world.

Violet and her friends seem like people I would have been friends with in high school.

Loved this one as well, although I wanted more Roger. Love his and Violet's chemistry when they are together. I just did't want their time together to end, but she does it every time. I picked up Violet n Private right after finishing this one, just hoping...

Love interests, exotic locations, fasion. It had a perfect mix of all three.

Violet In Private Violet In Private by Melissa C. Walker
Another great installment. More Roger. Yay. Still frustrating up until the end. Loved reading the college parts. reminded me of my freshman year in college. 1994. Ack, I am old. Mexicali was a favorite back then too. :)


This was a really fun series to read. I enjoyed all three books, as you can tell since I read all three in the span of two days. Very addictive! Can't wait until the next book!
