Here's a link to the .rar folder containing my icons~ Enjoy? XD

A few last words:

1. Not all icons are credited
2. There may be doubles
3. I like variations, so you may find the same basic icon with slight differences

Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.

So here are the five words given to me from anyjen:

( Doumeki, Zoro, Master lists, Icons, Music )


I have a lot I need to do. I need to finish the rec list, finish the Zoro/Sanji manifesto, write fics I've promised to people and/or started, and go through the FST links. I'd love to write a xxxHolic fic, but I can't think of any original plots D:

My birthday is in 18 days XDD I'll be turning 20!

Another manga pimp! It's been a couple of weeks since I've read the series, so my memory is a little shaky (I haven't re-read it yet), but I do know that I enjoyed the manga very much.

Anyone willing to beta a short one-shot for me? I have a problem with tenses. It's for One Piece, and the pairing is easy enough to guess. I usually coerce anyjen  into doing it for me, but I feel bad for doing that. Any takers?

Never mind! anyjen  has scolded me and offered to take a look :)

I'm on long enough to check my e-mail and save links to LJ posts that I want to take my time looking at once I get home. I got an interesting message from someone saying that one of my fics had been...something. Haha, here, I'll just copy and paste it:

(I had to read this twice before it sank in)

So I've just discovered a musical artist I think Is briliant -- his name is Damien Rice.  I  love his song 9 Crimes and I really like Delicate (I struggled to find a good version of this song, but in the end I couldn't find one I was satisfied with). He generally plays softer stuff, so if you're looking for something loud this probably isn't it. I've also just discovered the song "The Garden of Everything" by Maaya Sakamoto and Steve Conte. I'm probably behind the times and everybody knows these songs >.< Oops!

Just for laughs.

I'll be leaving today (Friday) until early Sunday, but I'll be on that night. After that, on Tuesday I'm flying to Nebraska to hang out with a friend until Sunday. I'll be on to check my mail and comments, though I can't promise I'll respond to anybody right away. I have no idea how much time I will have for computer fun...

(Brief manga rec: Yankee-kun to Megane-chan)

Just a quick note to let everyone know I might loose my internet tomorrow and be unable to get it back for an undetermined amount of time. I really, really hope it doesn't come to that, but who knows? My computer is broken, and to fix it I need to do something that will most likely knock my internet out. The problem lies with getting it up again.

There's no need to comment on this, I just wanted everyone to know why I've disappeared.

Take care everyone! If my internet works, I'll be sure to post an update!

So, I've once again switched up my icons. I'm seriously considering uploading my flash drive full of icons so others can realize I'm nuts   agree with my nickname "icon whore"   admire what I have. The only thing holding me back is I've been collecting icons for a while now, and in the beginning I never wrote down who made the icon D:

As my title says, I need more space. It's getting more and more difficult to choose which icons to use. (Note: the idea to use lyrics as a description for my icons came from sapphirestar_ who is awsome and I luvs her).

I AM DONE WITH SCHOOL, PEOPLES --- DONE FOR THREE MONTHS, YESSSS. Today was my last day, and I couldn't be happier.

( Who is reading a sports manga? I AM! )

I'm behind on responding to comments, I know >.<  Sorry! Now I have time to actually respond to them, so expect a response~!

Finally, a picture of my tattoo!

It was really blurry, so I shrank it down, so the picture is kind of small...


(To Laugh)

That's on my upper-arm, near my shoulder. LOL My friend zoomed in with her camera from far away, so it's difficult to tell. I could try and get a bigger picture, so you can actually see my arm, if you want....

School sucks, and is sucking out my soul. Slowly. In the last week of May, I'll be pretty much Zombified because of finals, numerous papers I've got to write, and a board game to create. =.= BUT THEN IT'S SUMMER VACATION~ THREE MONTHS OF VACATION.

( Cut for rambling about new manga & book series! )

I think there was something else I wanted to say, but I can't remember now. Oh well, must not have been important.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY USOPP.
Oh, and...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WATANUKI. I'm going to have to write a belated birthday present for him. So there will be 'Holic fic, sometime soonish!!

One Piece
Title: A Hard Days Work
Genre: Romance
Characters/Pairing: Usopp, SanZo
Rating: Safe For Work.
Word Count: 974
Summary: Usopp draws and notices something about two of his crew members.
Notes: Where would I be without anyjen  ? Seriously, she is my Beta Goddess (and she somehow got roped into becoming that...sorry about that!)

( Read more... )

Just in case you missed it, I posted a Zoro/Sanji FST here.
 

Long post is long.

Warning: huge FST is huge.

Major thanks to anyjen, who beta'd this monstrosity and never called me crazy (or stupid).



( 27 'ship' songs + 1 bonus, 3 character songs, and 1 general )

I know I just posted, but ends_of_time  and anyjen  were kind enough to convince me that yes, people do like to laugh XD

During midterm week, I was in desperate need of a laugh. I tracked down some of my favorite One Piece posts (because OP always manages to make me laugh), and after reading and laughing until my ribs hurt, I decided to share.

I suppose I should put a spoiler warning in here, but my F-list is all fans of One Piece (and I can't see those who don't know the series caring about this post), so there's no warning.

I LAWL'D.

READ IT.

"Zoro's Directions Only Make Sense If You're Special Like He Is" by peroxide_fic  (who does HILARIOUS fics, go read all her stuff now!)

What's really amazing about this is Zoro was actually able to write down where he went. Most times, Zoro doesn't even know how he got to where he is.

So, I wrote this post full of fics and other One Piece miscellaneous stuff that make me laugh hard (because sometimes I need a good laugh). I was going to post it and share -- and hopefully make others laugh. I tried avoiding fics with pairings in it, since I wanted to introduce some awesome One Piece Gen fics, too -- but then I got embarrassed at my nerdocity and didn't post.

Shall I post?

( Cut to save F-list space )

I'm tagging whoever wants to do this.

My spring break is almost over T_T

( Just regular books, this time XD )

*EDIT* I just finished the "Adrien English Mysteries" series, and I WANT MORE. I'm addicted to that series, but I don't think any more books are out. D: D: D:

Inspired by a conversation with anyjen  about where Doumeki keeps that egg, seeing as it needs to be "close by him". Pockets are an obvious choice, but I've never seen him with any and it's funnier this way.

xxxHolic
Title: The Great Defeat
Genre: CRACK, romance.
Pairing: Doumeki/Watanuki.
Rating: Safe For Work. I think.
Word Count: 759
Summary: Doumeki knows it's time.

( Dedicated to Anyjen )

I seem to be fond of writing crack. And I'm in a writing mood, so there might be more postings later on.

You know you've got problems when you're in Chemistry lab, singing Bink's Sake.

"Binkusu no sake o, todoke ni yuku yo, umikaze kimakaze namimakase...."

This song will always mean nakama and happiness to me, now.

"Sayonara minato, tsumugi no sato yo...."

*EDIT*
CLAMP, YOU'RE KILLING ME. YUUKO-SAAAAAN! I think this last chapter is proof that the series is coming to an end.

*Cry* Yuuko-san.....
