Welcome to my World

Besides being a zombie enthusiast or a unicorn tamer, I am a Library Technician for one of the local school divisions in my city. Part of my job that I love being able to do is decorate our library and being involved with activities....and scaring children. JK!

Since I love me some zombies I have pushed the whole zombie awareness month to our students (come to the dark side!!) and so glad at the response and involvement! I want to share with you now some photos of displays, crafts, and my home away from home :)

 Today in fact we did a craft with the Grade 3-5s, some younger and older students as well, and the craft was to create zombie rocks. I got the idea here but with some collaboration came up with putting googly eyes on to speed up the process and all the rocks were painted ahead of time. Kids just had to pick a rock, draw on what they wanted it to look like, then glue some eyes and paint on some white.  The one to the left is my example kids had to follow.
I know...I'm a true Picasso.  

 Some of the wee ones were given the option to draw themselves as zombies from this template. I even provided a sample again. SO proud of how these turned out. 

 My lovely and most awesomest Teacher Librarian, friend, and co-worker pumped out these zombies shambling their way into our YA section. READ BOOKS! Creates good brains!

 I know it is all tiny but if you look close I added some cute zombies to my children's display. Nothing like zombies frolicking in the flowers and butterflies to bring a smile to your face.

 Our zombie rocks this afternoon are now displayed in the Zombie Awareness display. SO adorbs! Some kids got a little crazy with the white paint but truly impressed how these look.

Mine is in the middle facing out :)

This is just the display as a whole. To make kids really think about survival rather than brain eating corpses, I promoted the survivalist approach in the display and I'm hoping I didn't cause any nightmares this month, besides my own after seeing some of the kids' art.

I think it is really important to get kids talking about survival in any instant, to promote some crafting, get kids reading, use their imagination and to freakin have some fun in the whole process.

Mission complete.

The dead is strong in this one

I've never shied away from Star Wars zombie stuff here on ZD (look here, here and here...aaaand here). Since today is a usual posting and May the 4th, here are some more zombie Star Wars stuff for you to gawk at.

Fancy Pants and Handy Heels

 Strike a pose ladies! These eye catching (like there is literally an eye on there) pants are bloody awesome. Zombies won't even be able to deny grabbing you in these skinny jeans. You can grab a pair over at Kate's Clothing. Even feel free to pair them up with some zombie hand high heels. 

Previously found on eBay

Flip me the bird. I'll just eat it.

I found an image about edible zombie fingers via Pinterest one day and recently found a video on how to make these yummy bits yourself! I must say, they look freakishly delectable. Watch the video below for the deets on these digits.

Zombie Make-Up Tutorial from Pintester!

Pintester and my fav YouTuber, Sonja Foust, did a DIY video back in October for Halloween. It involved TP, a hair dryer, and her famous swearing. Usually she does some drinking as well or setting things on fire in her other videos, "screwing up pins so we don't have to." Thanks! And if you are like WTF is Pinterest then you have been hiding under a rock and it better be a zombie apocalypse where you are. And here is how to blend in with those zombies.

FYI that is how my hair looks everyday.

Social Media turning us into Zombies

Seems every thing around us is a zombie, even our social media having is creating us into zombies. Social media can be very addictive and obsessive over everything else we do. We have this need to check constantly what is going on, posting every little thing we do to the point we are glued to our screens, drooling over the next thing to post or see posted. Is this behaviour any different than a zombie? Are you one of these social zombies? Click here to see the full chart of social media drones.

zombie paper

For the life of me I cannot find where to purchase this paper. Down side to finding stuff on Pinterest is having to search for what source it comes from. I googled. Didn't find much except other pictures; No places to buy. All I know is I want this paper. Of course won't use it to make an resumes on.

Finn and Jake

Ever hear of the show Adventure Time? If not, then F@*$ off!! We are no longer friends!!! If you have then you must be a huge fan like me. And what do fans want? Merchandise! I must own this shirt below. I found this on Pinterest and some douche did not link it correctly to where they found it. GOOGLE! Found you can purchase it here. Must. Own. This. It is ALGEBRAIC!!!!

Famous characters turned zombie

 

Well looky here. Looks like Batman and Iron Man are going to fail us when the zombie apocalypse occurs. We are DOOOOMED! These are some zombie drawings I came across on pinterest. We have Batman, Iron Man, Donald Duck, Charlie Brown, NO idea (Huckleberry Finn???), Raphael TMNT, Tin Tin (oh no! hope they didn't get his dog!), and Archie. Archie was probably too busy necking with Betty or Veronica to even notice that his best buddy Jughead bit him.
