The Flat Momo Project [IMG Heavy]

[Kaitlin 22]

A while ago we had a bit of a discussion on doing a Flat Stanley kind of project. Please refer to that thread firstly if you don't remember, or didn't read that thread in the first place to find out what Flat Momo/Stanley/etc. is!

 

We decided to make a new thread for rules and information and begin the actual event soon! Here is our official thread! Any questions or other things related to Flat Momo can go here.

What Flat Momo is:

 

Flat Momo will be a drawn picture sent in a flat envelope to each person participating in the event. In the envelope will be some paper as well. Each person is encouraged to write a little something down for the next people on the list to read. It can be just a small note saying hi or anything else that you think of!

 

The most important thing: Please take a picture (or lots, whatever you like) of Flat Momo! It's really up to you what is in the picture with Flat Momo. For instance: I live near Philadelphia in the US! I could take Flat Momo to the Liberty Bell and take a picture of her with it. Or, I could take a picture of Flat Momo with something weird from around my apartment.

 

Be aware that you will be showing the picture in a public way (even though we are few ) and so you probably wouldn't want to show things in your picture that you wouldn't want just anyone to see. (Examples: Your nakie bum, ripped underwear on your head while dancing drunk on a table next to a nun, your street address, pictures of other people who have not given you permission to show the pic)

 

Marie or myself will either start a Flat Momo picture thread in Inspiration or just put our own pictures in this thread (depending on whether this thread gets really busy with other stuff or not!).

 

Getting in on it:

 

Several people have already said they wanted to be involved.

 

Here's the list and the mailing order as of right now:

 

Marie

Kaitlin

Cerendrallion

Tosh

Ajit

Jan

(Vertex)

Whitty

Lizzy

Marie

 

Please send your mailing information to me via PM and I will give your address just to the person on the list that will be sending Flat Momo to you before we start mailing!

 

If you want to be on there send me a PM.

 

In Short:

 

1. Look at the list and make sure you want to be on it or not. PM me to give me your address. Your address will be given to the appropriate person.

2. When you receive the Flat Momo envelope don't forget to write a little something... either for the next person or just in general!

3. Take at least one picture of Flat Momo with something from around where you live or just of stuff you want to show! Show us your piccy of where Flat Momo has been!

4. Send Flat Momo off to the next person on the list!

 

Note: You do not have to send anything else along inside the Flat Momo envelope. Some people might want to do it anyway though! If you do want to put something in there make sure that it is very flat, very light, and very cheap. We are cheapskates. I had vague thoughts of sending pink sparklies. *evil*

I added teh Whitty to teh list.

[Kaitlin 22]

Flat Momo is starting! Marie mailed her to me a bit ago, and now I'm finally able to mail her to the next person! The order of who is getting what when is in the first post.

 

Everyone involved except Marie should have gotten a pm. If you didn't get one from me than let me know. The address of the person you're mailing was in it.

 

I'll upload pics of FlatMomo in PA as soon as I can unpack some cables and stuff! I just took a couple, but I'm warning you they were crappy shots. I can't quite tell from the preview but I'm pretty sure her details can't really be seen! Ips, hopefully you guys are better picture takers. *meep*

 

edit: I forgot - if you decided you don't want to do it for any reason just tell us. There is no pressure to continue. We understand and wouldn't tease or huff (well, I can't speak for Jan. She might huff and puff but she's far too short to be able to blow your house down).

[Cerendrallion 32]

Got Flat Momo today! Shall take her to Belfast tomorrow!

[Kaitlin 22]

Hurray!

 

I have a bunch of crappy (very very crappy!) Flat Momo pics from when she was here.

 

Taken for a drive. Being driven to the hippo

 

There are cows in PA but they try to hide.

 

Oh no, look out Flat Momo!

 

In the mouth of the beast.

 

Whew, Flat Momo conquered the Hippo. This statue of a hippo is always always put in a new position and a new place in my town (well really the same bunch of places). I'm not sure what he's made out of but he's not as heavy as he looks. I could push him a little myself. The uni students do it.. sometimes he is even in the middle of the turning lane! I had to hunt down this hippo by checking in his usual haunts for these few pics. It was all fun.

 

Then we relaxed at the movies (this theater is where they originally filmed "The Blob").

 

Unpacked after I moved into new apartment. I moved while I had her.

 

Helping me move furniture. Flat Momo is strong.

Ooh, looks like Flat Momo had a lot of fun with you! I wonder what she'll think of Belfast!

[Kaitlin 22]

I can't wait to see!

[Cerendrallion 32]

So! Momo in Belfast...

 

I was actually up in Belfast for a Theatre Festival, so I sort of forgot about Momo until I was trapped in an alleyway with torrential rain falling about me, when I made a nice little video to pass the time...

Momo dancing in the rain!

 

[jan 14]

ooh, I never saw that! Momo looks pretty happy in a dark alley in the rain! I wonder what else she got to do in Belfast!

[Cerendrallion 32]

Em. Sit in my bag for most of it.

[Kaitlin 22]

Ip, I meant to say before how much I liked the video too. And the irish accent!

[Tosh 8]

Belfast seems fun...

You should have made Momo rain and fireproof.

[Whitty 29]

hah sweet. so who has her now?

[Cerendrallion 32]

Em, me.

 

Sorry guys, I have been ridiculously busy recently - but it shall get passed on!

[Kaitlin 22]

Yes, you were supposed to do it first thing one Monday a long time ago! *cracks whip*
