I’m not the greatest at taking selfies. A couple of years
ago I went to New York on holiday and met Jake Gyllenhaal and had a picture
with him. But I didn’t even chance taking a selfie in case I cut off his head!
Now when we my friend Linsey and I were in Rome there were
lots of street sellers who were selling selfie sticks. Linsey jokingly said a
much lower price than what one of them said, and he said yes. And after a bit
of haggling, she bought one for half the price he said.
After that we seemed to only take pictures with the selfie
stick. It took a few attempts so the stick wasn’t in the photo, but we mastered
it by the end. The shots actually captured a lot more of the surroundings then
normal pictures.
The day Linsey got the selfie stick was also the day we
learnt the phrase; Excusee my umbrello, which translated is excuse me my
umbrella. A useless phrase, but when said is a flashback to Rome for me.
