There is I don't know how much stuff I should rather be doing right now - comment-answering, email-replying and story-commenting just to name the first few off the top of my head - but I just went to check my flist, saw this and of course it all flies out of the window.


the disney meme

:P

Come oooon! ♥

I am!

I swear!

And it's not even like I've been doing all that much - well, aside from the PD meetings. And the rock music contest we're organizing. And classes (+ approaching test). And rs_games which is trying to kick my ass but I'm still kinda on top of it, albeit barely. And Big Bang, Baby entering the "artists phase". And a number of chores done around and out of the house.

...

Oh, all right...

Come to think of it! Wanna know something? Cloud Cult is good for listening to also when you're washing your car. No, really. I said REALLY! Washed your car is a must, o' course, but Radio Fodder is also quite good.

Okay, okay, part of all the happy was also that it was a warm sunny day. And, ALL RIGHT, Dad also got this "water gun" which is, like, this plastic thing that you attach to the irrigation tube, and shoots water as you pull the trigger, that's really fun to play with useful. Yeah. Useful. ...the bad side(s) of listening to high volume music, though, is that (a) you have no idea how loudly (or how off-key) you might be singing along, and (b) if people pass by, you don't notice. Then again, not really all that many people pass nearby my place on early Sunday afternoons. And if they heard me singing aloud about how a miracle is a miracle even when it's ordinary, it's not an eye for an eye but a favour for a favour, how you should suck up, suck up and take your medicine, or how I'm done with all that poop that brings me down, they didn't comment on it. (Or they did and I didn't hear, which amounts to pretty much the same. :P)

...I'll have to wash it again soon, since it got dirty once more with Monday & Tuesday's rain, but. I have the gun! :D I just hope none of my friends will pass by. The temptation to wash them with it will be almost too much to bear. And not quite as fun on the other side, probably. Ahem.



On other accounts? There are few things that delight me as much as seeing someone else being as happily geeky as I can get. :D


AAAAAAAAAND before we leave, a meme!

---

1. Do I have a distinct style of drawing? (this is like asking "does this make me look fat" isn't it *L*)
2. If so, what exactly is it that defines my "style"?
3. Would you say my art usually follows a 'theme'?
4. Does my style (if I have one) remind you of/look like the style of anyone else?
5. Judging from whatever art of mine that you've seen, what do you think I do the best at?
6. What do you think I need the most work on?

---

- in particular that section of the world including G me, Rickey jou, Chef Irvin jadis31 and ??? can't believe I haven't picked a character for you yet! D: monophobia - that YAY WE'VE GOT ANOTHER ONE!!!!11!eleven!!!

*fist in the air*

(Also, this might be as good a time as ever to mention that, in that regard, at some point in the past I did try wondering which character Ni could play, if we were to follow the aforementioned guidelines. I couldn't think of anyone who could fit the bill. At first. I was going down the "Like, it'd have to be someone connected at least to both Jojo and me" road when SAL KELLER started flashing in my head.

Oh. Oh the tears of laughter were still streaming down my face five minutes after.)

(We do have to find someone better suited for you, honey, though.)



And noooow: got it from ani_bester, who got it from bzzinglikeneon, who got it from...

---

Based entirely on my personality (so if you've met me before, block what I really look like out of your mind), hunt down a "played by" who you think would best represent me. Reply here with the picture or link.

This person may be male or female depending on whether *I* strike you as male or female.

I will respond with who I think should play you (only this might take all weekend, so I don't advise holding your breath!)

---

Now I'll go back to some good html coding. *g* I always wonder how come people don't realize how much fun it is... ;D




ETA: I need more Liquor icons.

ETA²: I was thinking about this before - are there no Cloud Cult icons around? How is it possible that the whole wide world isn't in love with them yet? ;P Theirs is the first CD I've actually bought (like, with money) in... oh, I don't know how much time. I love it so much. Journey of the Featherless is my latest crush. ;P

ETA³: I am also THE WORST EMAIL CORRESPONDANT IN THE WORLD. D: Especially when it comes to the real important stuff :( Please forgive me? ♥

OMG YES YES YES I FINISHED THE merry_smutmas PIC IN TIME FOR THE DEADLINE!

Which is more or less the only thing about it I'm proud of. Dude, I really should have stuck to something easier. Smutmas recipient o' mine, please forgive me! I have tried my best!

And now I can finally do something about ALL THE EMAILZ I OWE. Dude. I'm so behind with so many things. (It might also be worth mentioning that I ABSOLUTELY ADORE jou. MORE THAN PIE. AND I DO LOVE PIE.) BUT - on the upside, I think October may have finished for me. And before any of you starts pointing at the calendar, yes, that was a (pretty cheap) metaphor - it's just that we've had a few family issues lately. And even though things had been going a bit downhill before already, they really started running down the cliff on the 1st of October. But today they should be finally moving a person very important to me out of intensive care, and... I'm hesitant about saying this, but he should be out of immediate life danger now. Looking back now, the month has been kind of crazy. But now it seems to be over - and if anything, it's given me a better sense of what is my reaction in certain circumstances, of what I can do. And I needed to know that.


Also. You Liquor fans hanging around there? Plz to be checking this space. ♥

(Er. I might be in the fourth page. Y'know.)

I've left a few comments, but I'm not even close to being done. But argh! I don't have the time! I have to run away! D:


ETA: Oh, and I might be out of commission (sans internet + sans computer) this weekend. And not for an entirely bad reason - Dad is going to change his motherboard, and he's going to give me his old one. *g* Happy dance ahoy! ♥

For those of you keeping track, we're out of the Basketball Championship - and, incidentally, of the next Olympics as well. I am Not Pleased by the fact, which probably goes without saying.

( The How Do Others Perceive You? Quiz )

NOW, other meme - and this is a mixture of at least three others I've seen around the LJ-land. Let's see if I can phrase it in a way that might make sense. Also, yes I'm lame at titles.

Song Association Meme! Comment here and I'll tell you which song (a song, at least) that I associate with you. And if you've got any song you associate with me, do tell me. :D (This last part was originally called the "Dumb Song Meme". In case it helps. You know.)

Of course, it might also help if we have actually talked at some point in life.

But it's not really necessary, I guess.

Oki doki, maybe you don't know, but devart as got a "blog system" too. (Given how much I use it, I might as well not have known it either.) So, a while ago - when lj was totally down - I did a meme there. Figured I bring it here, too. (And c&p the answers I've already given, while I'm at it.)

Name a character from a fandom I'm in, and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.

Aaaaand we have already done:


( Remus Lupin )

( James Potter )

( Sirius Black )

( Sirius Black reloaded )

( Lily Evans )

( Sirius Black, ONE MORE TIME )

( Some more James Pottery )

( Remus Lupin, take two )

( Severus Snape )

( Lily Evans, the revenge )

( Single questions )

...yeah, that means that if you want to have more facts about a character I've already done - save for Sirius Black, I have no idea what I could make up next - you can go on and ask. Or a character that's not on there, whatever you like.

Well... looks like I'm on meme-making mood.

1) Put your music player on random
2) For the first 20 tracks, find a picture of the artist via Google Images
3) Get your friends to guess the artist

( Tons of pictures! We'll see how many you know! :D )

Ha... There's nothing quite like a long, hot shower - and possibly just a tiny spot of midro the night before - what? it helps. - to make it all better, if you've woken up feeling not quite all right. (Well, as I was falling asleep yesterday night I'd also planned to get up early and try jogging as well, but I promptly talked myself out of it as soon as I woke up. This time the excuse was "now, let's not start too many things all at once." I'm not exactly sure what 'other things' my brain was referring to, but I didn't question it too closely.) Other things that I should list under the cheerer-upper category should probably be getting to wear a t-shirt without a long-sleeved one underneath for the first time, this season (okay, so maybe I'm not that hard to cheer up), and changing bedclothes/vacuuming around/opening the window to change the air. (I basically said that cleaning one's room/house makes persons feel better. I'm aware of that fact. I'm also aware that I'm a pretty weird cookie, and that I don't really care enough to do anything about it. ;) And anyway, try telling me that breathing fresh air does nothing to improve your mood. :P)

There are also some little rl facts I could tell you about - I actually might - but it all comes down to the fact that, when you think about it, just a little more levity would make life that much better. People take themselves way too seriously. Most times it's really not the end of the world.

Now - there is this meme I've seen randomly popping up on my friends list every now and then. I avoided doing it for the longest time, because you're always alternatively thinking that one of the points might be about you, or that you might not be there at all and you feel like a fool, etc etc etc, so I'd decided against it for the longest time.

Then? I realized that, after all, I'm too much of a bitch not to do it - exactly for the reasons listed above. :D (Reason. That's just one. But you know what I mean.) If anything, I've refrained from telling actually bad stuff... but that's mostly because it's a lot more fun telling the interesting parties directly, if there are bad things to be said.

The Paranoia Meme!


1. ( I really like you. We don't know each other... )



2. ( I never expected you to become so important to me, you know? )



3. ( I used to be sure you couldn't stand me much. )



4. ( I used to be sure you were a man. )



5. ( I STILL can't get over it. )



6. ( I used to think that talking in English, especially on the phone, was for the most part just an awkward matter. )



7. ( And you are someone else... )



8. ( I adore you! )

When I was planning it, I'm rather sure there were other people I wanted to talk about... oh, well. Anyway, believe me, it was HARD not thrusting a OMG I HATE YOU SO MUCH!!1! in there, just for the hell of it. And to see if anyone would go "Is number # about me...? " I am most definitely Not About giving you hints other than what I've said above, which in some cases are more than enough. Then again... I suppose I do have a tendency to come clean about practically everything, if given enough time. If I were you, I wouldn't be surprised if five years from now I'll start saying stuff like "Do you remember that old old anonymous meme? Number #? That was you."

Taking as a given that I haven't told you already and I've forgotten about it. Well, it happened. (Several times.)

Changing subject again - in the end, I didn't submit anything to Kissybook. I didn't notice that the first version was way too little until it was too late... and I didn't manage to get anywhere close finishing the second, bigger one by the date it should have been due. I did collect an awful number of tutorials, though - look! A whole page of them! - and they definitely will come in handy, so yay. ;)

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand...


wellymuck is starting again!

!!!

Since there are things it just would not do for you to miss, here they are again:

♥ jadis31, who drew me such a cute Remus;

♥ nassima, who did James and Lily. Still for me for mine. MWAH.

Do go and woo them. :D Also, let me remind you of HP Quills for a Cause! Starting very very soon.

__

That said, a few days ago I posted a poll, and here are the results. You don't want to know the time I lost after that. Tell me it's not pretty and I'll cry.

( not-just-2006 Bruni Art Review - the stats! )

...

When I said I wouldn't be online for a few days, I didn't think it'd be for almost a week. Er.

But! I did put (at least some of) the time to good use, and you should see the results shortly. ;P

And I have a song for you! I've been re-listening to it non-stop for a few days now, and although I suspect a few of you already know it... well. There's always that person who doesn't. :D So, without further ado: The Clash - I'm Not Down.


( A meme! )

( Now with New Year's Resolution and Twelve Days! )
