Mosaic Photo

Filed under: Me Me ME

As I was flipping through a magazine brought from Hong Kong, I saw a picture made from a collection of images. I have been wondering how it was done when one of my friend posted one of those pictures as his profile picture on facebook. I have been thinking about it, how it was done? Did he do it himself? Now, I have the answer.

With a little description next to the picture in the magazine, I checked out MOSAICKR. You simply sign up for an account with Mosaickr, then it would ask for permission to access your pictures from your FLICKR account (Yeah, you have to have a Flickr account). All you have to do, click couple of times, and your mosaic image will be generated. You will be notified via email when it’s done. Cost?? You can download the low-resolution image for FREE. If you prefer the high-resolution, or print on a poster, you will have to pay for it via Paypal (YES! Paypal!!).

Here are the samples I have just finished. My suggestion, use maximum number of pictures. This is not a good sample of finished products.

Crazy Friday

Last Friday was soooo C-R-A-Z-Y !!

Remember I went shopping at H&M with my cousin Kimberly? I didn’t mention how crazy the shopping experience was, hun? If you remembered, we got lucky and got a parking spot as soon as we got into the 3-level parking garage, as many cars still circling around in the parking lot.

The target of the shopping trip was H&M. We walked in, not that many people. I thought it would have been flooded with people. Clothes was still pretty nicely folded on display tables and hung on display racks, not messy at all. People were not too crazily grabbing anything they could get their hands on. The line for the cashier was acceptable, and with 4 cash registers, the line was moving in a considerable fast rate. With all that said, have you noticed I left over something? The fitting room. Ladies were in line for the fitting room. From what we could see, there were 10 ladies in line. Then we found out, inside the fitting room area, there were benches and 4 to 5 more ladies seating inside waiting. There were 4 regular size stall and 1 handicap stall. Every ladies had at least 7 items in hand. It took a while, about 20 minutes or so.

After that, we went dinner at Maggiano Little Italy. This restaurant was known for long wait, even if you have made reservations. We thought, table for 2 should be fast. Guess what?

Me: table for 2 please.
Reception: there is a 2 hour wait.
Me: 2 hour? eerrrhhh…. (looked at my cousin)
Reception: but if you can find an open table here in the bar, you can still order from our menu. Table is first come first serve.
Me: OK. Thank you. (looked at my cousin again)

Both of us looking around to find open table as we were walking away from the reception area. I saw a table right next to the reception area, kind of occupied. 4 people gathered around the table, with empty glasses on the table, 2 of the 3 chairs were not taken. I looked at those people as I walked away. Then I turned back and looked at them again as I took another steps. I probably repeated the same move 2 or 3 times. The lady who was sitting in the chair got up, finally, I raced to the table and sat down. Got a table less than a minute. Wasn’t that crazy??

We had a pretty satisfying meal and great desert (to go too)!

Yum… yum… good!

Mystery Package

I just received a package. I looked at the shipper’s name and address, and couldn’t remember I had made a purchase from them. It is a relatively small package, but quite heavy. I remember making a few online purchases, but none of them should come in a small box like this. There’s one package that I was expecting, but the scheduled delivery should be tomorrow. Oh well, I just opened it. Took out the air cushion packaging filler, remove the package slip. Voila!!

We’re Not Lying

Filed under: My 2 Little Rascals

I have been telling Ashlyn that I could see her via the computer screen. We even showed her and Alex how it looked like, obviously when we were at home showing them, there’s nobody in the classroom. I have asked her questions about what I saw via the IPTV, she was amazed and seemed to believed me that I could really see her from work on the computer.

Better yet, on last Friday, out of no where, I came up with the idea of taking a picture of the screen of the laptop, showing Ashlyn close to the “camera”, and showed it to her at home. Images were a bit blur, but she was able to recognize herself, so I guess this time, she has got reassurance that Mama and Baba could really watch them over the computer.

Toy Fight

Oh My God! This is the ultimate Christmas gift for my dear hubby. He always complaint about back pain and soreness, and he is on the never ending mission to find the best massage chair. Last night, he was searching for foot massage machine that squeezes your feet.

Human Touch HT 7450 Zero Gravity Massage Chair is the ultimate luxury massage chair, it has everything that my dear hubby is looking for.

The HT 7450 incorporates Human Touch’s unique massage technology, Quad Roller System, which includes four precise techniques that imitate those used by massage professionals. Additional options include a soothing heat feature or a luxurious foot massage, all customized to the individual’s preference

I think it’s going to be a toy fight between my dear hubby and myself.

Bargain Shopping

Yesterday was the first day of friends and family sales at H&M. My dear friend Elaine reminded me in the afternoon, after she raided the H&M in the city after lunch. She got a full length coat at 50% off plus the F&F discount 25% on top. She got couple of sweaters for her hubby and couple of tops for herself, average $25 a piece.

I couldn’t believe it. So, I IM’ed my cousins and asked if they’re interested. Cousin Kim was all up for it, so we went right after work. We got lucky, we found a parking space when we got there, so didn’t waste anytime.

Elaine was right, the full length coat was cheap. I got couple of items, and the coat was under $40.

I finally shopped at the new H&M in my area. I’m looking for the H&M opening in a week even closer to my home.

Power Tools for Christmas

What to give to the professional relatives and friends for Christmas? I am talking about those who use power tools day and night. It is always the difficult question to answer. For some reasons, most of them do not agree with what we picked out for them, most of the time. I guess we should give them some manly man items, such as high tech gadgets, anything automotive related, shavers, or power tools.

I have two uncles are electricians. Husband of a good friend of mine, and my father in-law are in the constructions contractors business. I believe power tools is a good choice for them this Christmas.

What are some of the Bosch Power Tools made my holiday gift list? Boash Jig Saw and Hand Router? Humm.. This one can be used at home too. Bosch Laser Ranger Finder, or the Bosch 10.8V cordless pocket driver? Humm.. I think we should get one for ourselves too. Oh, the Bosch Cordless Batteries & Chargers can come in handy when in need.

WOW, there are just too many goodies at Ohio Power Tools. Hop over and check them out. They are very knowledgeable about their products, and they also service and repair everything they sell.
