Swap categories: Challenges 
Number of people in swap:5
Location:International
Type:Type 1: Electronic
Last day to signup/drop:May 10, 2012
Date items must be sent by:May 24, 2012
Number of swap partners:5
Description:

Note: For this round, please only include pictures you take specifically for this swap, not things you already have saved on your computer.

I have edited the number of partners so that everyone gets to see everyone else's pictures. I figured since there are only five of us that wouldn't be too overwhelming.

I've picked some tasks from each person, tweaked some, combined some, and added some. Let me know if you think that is a good method for future swaps; I certainly think it adds more variety than me coming up with all of them myself.

Your Mission: Take a picture of each item you find/make/complete and email it to your partners. Don't worry if you don't get everything, and don't be afraid to 'creatively interpret' the tasks.

The Tasks/Items:

  1. Something that smells bad next to something that smells good
  2. Something popular that you don't like
  3. Something that you love to wear but would never wear in public
  4. The concept of: comfort
  5. The concept of: Serenity
  6. The concept of: happiness
  7. A problem and its solution
  8. Your name written using household items
  9. Something that is not as it first appears
  10. Something that is magical
  11. Something no one knows you love
  12. Something you covet
  13. Something that looks edible but isn't
  14. A memorial for an underdog
  15. A place where you would like to make love
  16. A place where you would hold a meeting of like-minded people
  17. Something you shouldn't touch
  18. Something with bubbles
  19. Something that casts an interesting shadow
  20. Your favorite street art/graffiti
  21. An act of civil disobedience
  22. Your best RAWR face!
  23. Religion at its best&worst (can be two separate photos but counts as one item)
  24. A bad habit or indulgence of yours
  25. A physical representation of your username
  26. Something that pisses you off!
  27. Somewhere you wish you lived
  28. Something you used to hate that you now love
  29. Something you used to love that you don’t anymore
  30. Something that could save a life
  31. Something that isn’t real
  32. Something broken that has been mended
  33. A book that no one else in this swap has read*
  34. Something everyone in this swap owns*
  35. Something no one in this swap likes*

*For the last three clues, make your best guess. If someone guesses wrong, post a comment below. (ie, "Actually I've read that obscure out of print book written in Latin too!" or "Nope, I actually do like peanut butter and egg salad sandwiches!")

Once all the results are in I'll select a winner who will get a prize!

RATING: Completing all the items on the list is NOT required to get a five on this swap. If you can't get at least 10, supplement your pictures by writing a bit about finding things/not finding them.

Okay I thought of a couple more...
* your name written using household items
* something surprising

I had so much fun the last time. Thanks for hosting this swap again. I can't wait to get started and see what everyone else comes up with :)

  • something that is magical
  • something that is not as it first appears
  • something with fur

Dang...I thought of a really good one in the shower this morning but can't think of it now >.<

I just realised that 'something that is not as it appears' is pretty close to 'something surprising' so we may as well dump mine and keep the surprise.
