Sigh, sometimes, I wish I enjoyed school more. I'm always depressed when the weekend is almost over, especially when it was a 4 day weekend. Not only that, a good buddy of mine has been having a really sucky time at home. She's really upset and I haven't seen her in about a week because of this. If I get a chance to see her this week, I don't know what I can say or do to help her feel better.

On a lighter note, I dressed as Edward Cullen from Twilight for Halloween yesterday. It was the scariest thing I could think of at the last minute. Thanks goes to downtownpunk for helping me put the finishing touches on the costume. (Um, if I said I had photos of the costume, would anyone want to see them? >.> )

Now, I want recommendations. I've been trying to put some fancy lighting/coloring/anything effects to my icons, but anytime I follow a tutorial, it either looks absolutely horrible or nothing like it should. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, I just don't know what. Anyone have some tips or good, descriptive tutorials they would to share? I would really appreciate it. The programs I use are Photoshop CS4 and GIMP 2.6.6. c:

_{P.S- I love this icon. apparitions_d did such a wonderful job. :)}

Just wanted to post my birthday cakes.

The chocolate frosted one says, "Happy Birthday Twins!" written on the top.

Here's a close up of this amazing cake.

And, from my Mumsy's birthday a couple of months ago, I present to you...

"Have a DAZZLING Birthday."

HAY, HAY, YOU GUISE

THIS IS SIMPLY AMAZING

It's about time I updated this thing...

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 23:02:08 GMT

Ugh, just like the title says, I'm actually bringing myself to update my LJ. I'm still upset at myself for not updating this thing as much as I used too, but I've already ranted about that.

So, I went to a Baby Shower yesterday. It was fun, but still annoyed that didn't win a game involving Disney. All we had to do was name titles of their animated films. Well, you know how you can think of something any time you want except when it's actually needed? That's what happened to me. I had written down 24 titles. The actual winner wrote 26. When she was reading it out loud, one of the titles she mentioned was "The Princess and the Frog." At that moment, my sisters and I yelled _{(but not loud enough for anyone to hear)} "That movie's not even out yet! D:<" And I'd also like to mention that the cake was delicious. And super adorable.

Hm, I'm also thinking of getting rid of some of my icons. I mean, I adore them all, but I don't really use the majority of them.

Hey, downtownpunk...

I CAN SEE HP6 AGAIN Y/Y?
Saw the midnight showing, it was amazing.

_{I made a short post again... ;;
Also, I need more HP icons.}

I finally have an excuse to use this icon

Wed, 24 Jun 2009 20:54:38 GMT

_{I just finished the first Ace Attorney game yesterday. I'm fortunate to have found the game, but now I really want the sequels. :'< Also, I'm in a bit of an icon-making mode, I just don't know exactly what to icon. Any suggestions?}

I really need to read the rest of the Harry Potter books before the 6th movie comes out. I read the first 4 books, but when I got to the 5th book, I just...stopped. Not sure why. A certain someone keeps pestering me to finish. All I have to say to that person is: "Hopefully, I'll get them done soon. Hopefully. _{Please, don't kill me.}"

On another note, I keep listening to "The Neverhood" soundtrack. I absolutely love the music for this game, it's so unique and different.

Curiosity killed the cat...

...or scared it nearly to death. D8

Anyway, I was looking at the The Phobia List. There's a name for the fear of insects and a name for the fear of spiders, but...there wasn't one for the fear of cockroaches.

That's the whole reason I was looking at the list to begin with, to find the scientific name for the fear of cockroaches. I wonder why? There's plenty of people that are scared of them. There's also plenty of people that are horribly, terrified of those hideous, little creatures that they run out of the room screaming. _{That's what I do, at least...}

So, I decided to explore the interwebs for a possible explanation. I found some names, but they were just made up by random people. :|

I finally found something. It was an article about cockroaches. Reading about them isn't as horrible as seeing them, but this article just HAD to post a picture. Not just any picture. A CLOSE UP picture.

Yeah, that's about all I have to say. Once again, no cut.

School is almost out. School is almost out. School is almost out.

After quite some time, I've decided to update my LiveJournal. I'm not so sure if it's going to be long or just a few sentences. I wonder what happened to my love for LJ? I mean, I used to update this thing, at least, once a week... _{Myiconsaregoingtobegonein12days.WhatshallIdowithoutmy110icons???}

Anyway, as the first 3 sentences clearly state, my freshmen year of high school is coming to a close within Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of next week. I still have to turn in my Biology textbook and take a few of the final exams, but they're only half days...so, yeah...

I've also been entertaining myself with various little tidbits: Comics (both web and book form), video games, urban legends, and others things that I can't remember at the moment. 8|

So, yeah, that's about all I have to say. No LJ cut. Waaaay to lazy at the moment... _{Plus, it doesn't seem necessary.}

I have but one word to say:

WICKED

It was really, really good. I had a very enjoyable time out at the theatre _{If you don't count the technical difficulty that happened at the beginning of Act 2.} If anyone figures out "Wicked" is coming to town, I highly recommend you try to get a ticket. IT'S WORTH IT.

I have really nothing to say in particular, so I'll just write done EVERYTHING that's on my mind.

• "Dollhouse" premeires tonight. I'm actually pretty excited _{even though I hate Joss Whedon with a passion.}

• I admittedly want to have the rest of Lily Allen's new album on my iPod. *hinthintcertainsomeonehinthint*

• I looked up synonyms for the word 'really' to get 'admittedly' in the above thought.

• I have this really big urge to watch cartoons that aren't on TV anymore _{(i.e Beetlejuice, Beast Wars, Class of 3000, Aladdin, etc.)} but that won't be happening anytime soon...

• _{I seem to have fallen in love with the subtext code}

Aaannnnddd...that's about all I have to say.

You Scored as Alice

Have you fallen down the rabbit hole lately? Or played croquet with a deck of cards? Either way, you're so very much like Alice! Her wild imagination and constant ability to daydream got her in so much trouble - you've probably heard your mother or teacher lecture you about having your head in the clouds! Remember to stay grounded most of the time, however, because life can get away from you when you're always dreaming about someplace else!

A moving picture

Sat, 13 Dec 2008 00:01:23 GMT

During the Open House of my High School, my group had decided to perform a Harry Potter themed tableau.

While in the middle of a Dementor scene, some ~~snot-nosed, little~~ boy felt the need to say, "Harry Potter stinks!" And I, without even thinking, retorted by saying, "F*CK YOU, KID!" This was shocking because, I don't curse.

Fortunately, no one was around to hear.

Oh my gosh, I've made TWILIGHT icons

Sat, 06 Dec 2008 04:08:33 GMT

But, don't worry, they're just making fun of Edward's stupid ability to glitter in the sun.

Do these icons dazzle you?

In dedication to Britney Spears' new album "Circus" (Which comes out on Tuesday, 12/2), I've decided to let Brit-Brit be my default icon for a little while.

I can't seem to think of what else to do for this 'momentous' occasion...

I have a question for anyone that would willing to help me.

Does anyone know of a good screencapping software?

The only one I can find is SnagIT, which just looks like what I've been doing with Paint. (Plus, I have to pay for it.)

If anyone could send me a couple of links to some software, I would really appreciate it. :)

Letter Meme

1. Comment on this post.
2. I tell you a letter.
3. Think of 5 (or more if you want) fictional characters and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ.

Well, I was tagged by bordella. She gave me the letter C.

Cartman: What's there to really say about Cartman? Other than he's one of the funniest, and rudest, characters in the entire show. :)

Cyclonus: One of my most favorite Decepticons. A giant, bunny-looking, killing machine who's loyal to his Leader? What's not to love?

Chowder: The fat, cat-bear-rabbit who has a passion to become a chef. He's really cute and, even though he can be a bit annoying, I just want to cuddle him.

Chris Maclean: He's such an entertaining character, I wonder why he doesn't get more love? Plus, I would like to add: "Oooohhhh, such shiny teeth!" XD

Cordelia Chase: At first, I thought I was going to hate Cordelia. But, after watching a couple of episodes, she grew to be one of my favorite characters.

In recognition of United Nations World Teachers Day, let us reflect on the subjects we hated most in school but must now grudgingly admit were useful. What subject will today’s students find most useful when they’re older?

View 455 Answers

Math. ~~Even though I hate that subject with a fiery passion.~~

You need math for plenty of things in your life. Plus, if you want a specific career, ~~like becoming a veterinarian~~, you'll most likely need it.

You can't teach people to be lazy - either they have it, or they don't.

~~Cursed school, I don't update as much because of you.~~ Ugh, curse me and my inability to get anything of importance done...I really want to practice making icons or drawing or SOMETHING, but...I can't think of a way to finish that sentence.

After watching this video, I reminded myself of how much I love Tom Kenny. He's simply amazing, in my opinion, and I'm quite envious of what he does for a living. I mean, who doesn't want to make a living from performing comedy skits and doing voices of adorable cartoon characters?

Spongebob isn't one of my favorite characters he voices, but after watching this well,...I dunno, I just have a small place for that little, yellow kitchen sponge in my heart.
