Now this is not meant to offend, as I stated when I post this on facebook. And some of you may have seen this - I'm not sure, but my grandmother sent me this. Now, I'm from an extremely democratic State and city and have no personal religion. It's meant to be funny, so chillax (yes, I said a word possibly better left for people in a different decade) so here... some political humor. Not meant to offend, clearly.

( I'm going to get myself kicked out for this... )

Well never mind, I'm on the side of good again. Movie spamming good.

I had to work this whole weekend - whole weekend pretty much. 9 hours on Friday six on Saturday and only two today because I was covering a shift for somebody. Not that bad, I know. However, they were the fastest shifts I've ever had in my whole entire life. And now I'm in my living room neglecting my homework and watching Stars Wars waiting for Desperate Housewives to come on. God help someone if it's not a new episode.

Currently I'm rereading my favorite parts of the Twilight Series, I'm on Eclipse and I've realized I only like about two chapters out of that book. The one about Rosalie. And the one concerning Jasper. So really it's a win win for me. I've seen the movie, it was a pretty good match up to the book. Though Rob was suuuuuper awkward. It made me slightly uncomfortable whenever he opened his mouth, moved, or breathed. Awwwwkkkwaaaard.

Next up is the ever unpredictable Breaking Dawn, I've come to realize that the way Miss Meyer ended things was not satisfactory. And since there are slim chances we will ever see Midnight Sun (which I grudgingly read this past weekend in my sparse spare time) and fell in love all over again. I've decided that there should be a Midnight Sun, and I'm pissed that she's not writing it. Now, I COMPLETELY understand why. I get it. I understand. BUT REALLY NOW! I really want to read about Edward, I love the guy. She's killing me, I can wait a few years for her to get back into it and then finish and then hopefully publish... I can do it. But I've got to know she's going to finish! I HAVE TO KNOW!!!! PLEASE STEPHENIE GIVE ME A SIGN!!!!!!!

Peace out!

So, yesterday, I went swinging at a local park (and although I'm probably too old to go swinging I still enjoy getting out of my house to listen to some good music on my Ipod). Now, I usually am very capable of keeping myself completely balanced on this thing, even for someone who is a quarter inch away from six feet, but yesterday when I was going super high and holding on with one hand I found myself... falling. Yes, I fell off the swing head first. How? I have no idea, all I know is that I have serious back whiplash from falling off. My mother, the concerned parent that she should be, well - she laughed.

I made some killer Breaking Dawn icons last night and cannot wait to post them on Vesp, however it's not the 9th yet, so I have to be patient. Which reminds me, I bought Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon almost three month ago (THREE MONTHS!) well, actually I pre-ordered it, and it came out on Tuesday, and it's still not here yet. I'm thoroughly annoyed. I'm kind of one of those fast turn over people who think that shipping express needs to be done a whole lot faster for a lot less money. I'm ready for technology to be built where books can sprout wings and fly themselves to me. It would make my life so much easier.

All that and I get to work tomorrow (joy)

So this last week has been absolutely insane. First, I got stitches, then I got locked out of my house in search of a wayward Netflix film (the Virgin Suicides), my best friend's secret crush for almost a year turns out to be a flaming homosexual (which is great, I don't care, however my friend happened to be heartbroken) I had 2 Midnight phone calls from were while she was in Cali from her trying to convince me that was going to be okay. (Yeah... right) It's bad enough when the guy you like likes someone else, but when they like a different gender. I actually stood up to my manager, got put under house arrest by my mother, got Independent Study in my school schedule for the class I tanked, and somehow managed to pull a whole entire garden full of weeds today.

That and my graphic spark is slowly but surely coming back. By the way I've seen Perfume: the Story of a Murderer. It's the film where the old, old Twilight fans took tons of picture of Rachel Hurd-Wood (an old Bella choice back in the day, yes I'm allowed to say that) and it was completely ridiculous. The movie scared the crap out of me - it starts with a fish market and ends in an sexual orgy and then cannibalism. And here I was thinking it would be this great film, Alan Rickman is in it, it's got to be amazing, right? Slightly insane film, really.

That and Breaking Dawn came out - and I liked it. (*ranting spoilers, for those who have not read, don't continue*) There have been so many people with so many expectations about how the series should end, and they claim Stephenie broke her own rules. Are you kidding me? She's the author! She's allowed to break her own rules, which she didn't, she just used extremely clever trickery to cover her tracks. My only complaints with the book would have to be the fact that Nessie and Edward didn't have a father/daughter relationship. I understand the book was more about Bella and Nessie, but there was no relationship between father and daughter at all. Which made me sad, because I'm a girl who likes to read books about good father/daughter or father/son relationships. Basically, I just wanted more Edward and I'm waiting for Stephenie's FAQ on certain questions that need to be answered.

However, this cheered me up, Enough4 posted this over at Vesp. It made my day, hopefully it will make someone else's.

Okay apparently the subtitles which make the video hilarious don't work, so here's the link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aLjcyekOoI&feature=related

GO WATCH IT!!!!

I went to the Host signing yesterday at MOA (only a two hour drive, nothing spectacular). Basically I had a heart attack, I bought a regular book and my ARC copy signed. So almost every fan in the fandom has gotten a book signed or met Stephenie or something fantastic, but I was super excited! Yesterday was INSANE!!!!!

A Vintage themed board just opened. It' absolutely amazing. Come over and check it out!!!!! Everyone is welcome!

Seriously, we're called Twi-hards, that's apauling who came up with that? (And I apologize if some one did come up with that and I'm offending them, but Twi-hards? It reminds me of a certain bodily function for men *cough* Bad Chaos, I know.

Made some fun new icons, yay!

Under the cut!

( nowhere to run when I'm in trouble )

Even though I don't have much to complain about, I'm starting to feel the depression creep back into my life. I was diagnosed with depression two years ago after a bunch of crap, but I got better and I've felt better for a little over a year and a half, but now I can't seem to feel good about anything. I'm completely exhausted and been losing interest in just about everything. It's been gnawing at me for the last three months, ever since I went to dinner with my mother. And I've been trying to keep up a happy face, but sometimes I just want to crawl up in a hole and sleep forever. I hate being chipper when every thing's falling apart. Last time my grades fell dramatically, it was just bad - bad - bad - bad.

Anyways, just needed to ramble, but I MADE A NEW BLEND! (Something to get excited about, kind of... okay not really)

( For the first time in my life I'm learning without you )

I'm pretty much begging anybody with any decent Banner tutorials to send 'em my way. I can't make them I can't do anything but icons. Today was my icons suck day. AHHH! Signatures too, I'm in serious lack!

I made a tutorial, finally, it's under the cut!

( I don't have many friends left to talk too )

I'm addicted to screen caps, I really am. Making them and adding pretty blues and pinks (I'm a sucker for blues and pinks) into their murkiness. I'm very adjective oriented tonight, so words like murkiness have appeared in my vocabulary about thirty times, so far I've got: anomalous, ambrosial, decry, emollient, and it's not really adjective-ish, but:: fledgling... new favorite word.

Okay, I made lots of Ferris Bueller icons, I would really like to know how to make those absolutely gorgeously spiffy palettes that I could put these one, but I'm not that creative tonight. Only adjective-ish. They're beneath the cut.

01] Credit if you use and like
02] Ferris Bueller Icons, I'm hoping I spelt Bueller right



( he's gonna marry me )

I want to make a tutorial, I don't know why, but I do. I'm excited. I made 4 new Icons... we shall see...

For anyone who knows that my life is steadily taking a downhill plummet (And I know it could be ten times worse, but I still feel the compulsive need to complain) well here's just a fun little update. Since I failed my course (by an eighth of a percent, stupid final) and have to re-take it, I have to drop my music, according to my facilitator... (I hate that word) in order to keep up with my other courses. Okay, if this doesn't make sense to anybody else, well it doesn't to me either, I'm a music major. And then after I explain to her that I take basically all music courses, she still insists that I have to drop everything. Oh, but my favorite part is when I'm seriously ticked off now, about to leave, she looks at my transcript and goes "oh, you're a music major" I nearly choked her.

On a better note, I finished "The Sweet Far Thing" and was pleasantly surprised by the ending. I liked it, Rebel Angels is still my favorite, though I loved Kartik ten times more in this book. (I was sadly a Simon fan, well actually I was split, but I did really like Simon though I conveniently forgot that he dropped her like a hot potato when he found she was a bit weird).

And my other fun, fun thing I finally talked to said boy I've liked for... um... ever. For a straight 80 minutes. He apparently thinks I'm funny, and I now know his middle name. This is where I take a WOOT! moment for myself.

AH! Lastly, I watched One Tree Hill last night (the first time I finally got a chance to watch) and I was so excited Peyton and Lucas were going to get together again, and I was so sure, and then LINDSAY has a ring on her finger. I wanted to bang my head against the wall. But I did like the scene with Brooke and Owen when he said she was too young for him after the whole discussion about her mother acting her age.

I'm graphics-burnt... where is my muse!

My last parting gift is this: I LOVE JAMES MCAVOY!

I think the title pretty much explains it all, once I've gotten myself out of the world of Fanfiction, I manage to drag myself back in. And of course, if it's men and it has to do with Harry Potter (this is where everyone should smack their palm to their foreheads and say "oh dear") then of course it has to be all about Tom Riddle (Jr.) Basically I've finally finished writing the first 5 chapters of my new fic, and decided on a whim to post them. I'd like to think this isn't my best writing (mainly because what I've posted so far is what I wrote during the heat of Deathly Hallows)

So here it is for those of you who love to read Fan Fiction...

So this has been, well one hell of a week. I went back to school - but now - oh now wait, I can't get a spare moment to myself before I'm summoned to work the concession stand at the High School basketball game. All right, one day is fine. One. So I get there yesterday, and they tell me... "we don't need you today, we found some one else to cover." Okay, so I get a ticket and call a few friends and we watch the game. We win. No surprise since my town is known for having a good basketball team. Well, I get a call this morning and they ask me to come again. So I come... again, and they tell me "well, you weren't supposed to come today, it was Tuesday. We don't need you to help right now." I basically just about pulled my hair, since I seriously don't understand basketball and just had to sit through two full games. And the best part, is that they really need me on Tuesday (I double-checked this time) and I'm the only one scheudled (I can't spell that word to save my life) for Tuesday's game... where I might mention is the guy I've liked for a very, very long time is playing. And I haven't seen him a few months.

This is going to be a disaster. -smacks palm to forehead-

Some new Boyd Holbrook Icons, he's so pretty!


( more here )

I'm doing my 2nd 100 Challenge at Vesperarium (The Twilight Graphics Site). My Category is "Song Lyrics" so I'm naturally having a blast picking out all my favorite songs and making them onto Sigs and Blends.

Here's a preview!

Today, instead of spending the day with my friends... I'm sick. I hate being sick. So I've been lazing on the couch (which most days sounds really good, but today it's driving me insane) and I've been watching Malcolm in the Middle re-runs, and randomly making icons. I hate being sick, did I mention that?

Ewan!!!!!!!!!!!!!




( More EWAN!!!!!!! )

I love Sunflowers... and Elijah... I'm feeling Lord of the Rings reminescent.

Three Icons.
