Selfie time!

I have a new smartphone. This one really is smart, where the previous one was pretty dumb. For one thing it has a much, much better camera. For another, it also has a front camera, so I can take selfies.

Note to self, don’t frown with concentration when taking a selfie. It’s not a good look. Also, try to avoid taking it from below. I think a selfie stick would help with that.

The new phone also has loads more memory. I don’t have to delete WhatsApp media as soon as I’ve looked at it! I could even load some music on there (hey, I need earbuds too.) And podcasts!

This is going to be fun. I’m curious to see if taking selfies will make me wear makeup more often.
