• Post ten of any pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.
• NO CAPTIONS!!! It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.
• They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.
• You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.

Because I like pictures maybe, or maybe because it's a way of expressing myself without actually getting into the nitty details of 'Why are you so flaky lately, Wendy?' So whatever... Let's just say I like pictures.

First one's free, as always.

Meme-ing. I lack the brain to write today. Nothing I write sounds pretty, so I am distracting myself with nothing much.

Yes, I will meme. And I am uploading Music so there will be music for you all later - some I promised people like um... months ago? I get around to it, though - that counts for something, right? ^^;;;

officially yoinked from the_hylozoist though everyone seems to be doing it. ^^

( 20 questions about the BJD hobby )

Making Things is Fun Meme-ish-ness:

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me!

My choice. For you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

* I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!

* What I create will be with you in mind.

* It'll be done sometime this year (2009)

* You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be something written, some physical thing made, could be anything at all, but I will make it myself. It's entirely my choice what it is. No quibbles, no refunds.

* I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch?

Oh, the catch is that you put this in your journal as well. If you don't, you don't get anything.

Bold the ones that are true. Italicize the ones that are sort of true.

Ha ha ... ah... k?

So these have been making me chuckle on my f-list so I thought I'd give it a shot and...



GIVE UP DOLLFIES? LOSE 10 ABJDS BY MARCH?!!! WTF!!

O_O

Portent of doom?

Here's my other theory. See, it goes in order:

1) I tell my family about BJDs (and how much they really cost).

2) They threaten to throw me in a loony bin unless I lose 10 ABJDs by March.

3) So I give up my dollfies. :(

4) And ask my boss for... the city? Yes. See, 'cuz she really is the 'ebil' mastermind behind the entire city power structure, and I will hold the city hostage with the Death Ray I will have built with the proceeds from selling my dollfies. The plan will backfire horribly and I will be forced to FLEE THE CITY!!

5) And move to Baltimore, where I prompty start taking classes in myarmcanfly so that I may best learn how to talk her into letting me stay with her, since I will have no other place to go.

6) And then once I settle in... I start buying my dolls back. >3 And paying for them on time, too.

[random life edit] Oh, and by the by, EMS from Malaysia apparently means "DHL Courier", whose pick-up offices are an hour and a half by bus from my house, and 45 minutes walk to work after, in -50ºC (that's -58ºF btw) weather, and NOT 10 minutes by bus ON MY WAY to work as the Post Office pick-up is... And also, I was right in my last edit... to my Father, "Malaysia" translates as "Asia" and = "Japan". So I did not have anything coming from 'Japan' after all (so I'm not totally senile! yay!). XD

To the wise, this also means... I has another head. >3

...

And damn, I just completed the last one!! XD

yoinked from starshipangels 'cuz I meme when I'm bored. XD





Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?



Final Fantasy VII

Yay Yuffie!! >D She's my favourite. :3 I <3 her~

Commenting Meme

Leave a comment and I will:

a) tell you why I friended you,
b) associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.,
c) tell you something I like about you,
d) tell you a memory I have of you,
e) ask something I've always wanted to know about you,
f) tell you my favorite user pic of yours,
g) in return, you must post this in your LJ Ya... if you want? ^^




I'm bumming around the house today waiting for my Unoa Auction to end (so I can be depressed because noone's bidding T___T). And in the meantime, I fill my LJ with randomness! :D Yay, randomness~

I took the "The Aura Color Personality" quiz on gURL.com
		My aura is... blue Are you blue? No worries--having a blue aura does not condemn one to a life of sorrow. But those with blue auras are some of the most emotional people on the planet. Blues are quite sensitive to other people's feelings... Read more... What color is your aura?

... I dunno about this. It's not bad? But this whole quiz was very... rose-colored-glasses-ish... >> It definitely looks on the brighter side. XD The rest goes:

"they can cry at the drop of a hat even if they just sense another person's pain. They use their incredible intuition to help other people whenever and however they can--by feeding their bodies or lifting their spirits.
If you are an empathetic people person who finds satisfaction in giving love and caring for other people, you may be surrounded by a blue aura."

Also... if the weather would figure out whether it was going to be sunny, though cloudy, or be less windy or not look on the iminant verge of RAIN, I would be taking pictures right now. T_T What's with the rain on the weekend, Mother Nature??? Can't you make it rain during the work week or something? :\

spamming so much today I almost feel like I should apologize to my f-list... >> ... Sorry?

My Personality

Neuroticism	63
Extraversion	55
Openness to Experience	67
Agreeableness	14
Conscientiousness	22

You do not feel nervous in social situations, and have a good impression of what others think of you, however you feel enraged when things do not go your way. You are sensitive about being treated fairly and feel resentful and bitter if you think you are being cheated. You lead a leisurely and relaxed life. You would prefer to sit back and smell the roses than indulge in high energy activities. You prefer familiar routines and for things to stay the same. You can tend to feel uncomfortable with change. You are willing to take credit for good things that you do but you don't often talk yourself up much, however you are not affected strongly by human suffering, priding yourself on making objective judgments based on reason. You are more concerned with truth and impartial justice than with mercy. You strive hard to achieve excellence. Your drive to be recognized as successful keeps you on track toward your lofty goals. You often have a strong sense of direction in life, but may sometimes be too single-minded and obsessed with your work.

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick four of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!

My 4 icons picked by thesaraghina


Yes! The ass-kicking funnel cake. XD 'Tis Andrew from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He was held 'guestage' by Buffy and the slayer-ettes for a season. I was amused by this icon because (a) Andrew is funny/pathetic/intriguing as a character and (b) Funnel cakes kick my ass, too. XD I freak out about my baking and even though I love to bake, I always worry over the quality of the things I produce... It is both my 'baking' icon, and also my general icon for whenever I am feeling overwhelmed and feel like life, in general, is kicking my ass... :\


YAY LABYRINTH ICON YAY! Indeed. ^^; Does there really need to be more said? I love Labyrinth, it's one of my favourite movies, ever; I've watched it like a bzillion times and can pretty well play it start to finish in my brain. XD The 'Firestarter' icon in particular, I tend to use when someone is inciting/motivating someone(s) else (like me) to do something.


No... she doesn't like the hat. XD It has buttons that spell "FUN" on the side and gigantic PINK pom-poms. XDDD Halla... is not a pom-pom person. ^^;;; There is actually a full photo-story to go along with this, it's up at DoA (here). I just amuse myself by putting her in it and making her mad. >D I'm totally mean, sometimes... >> *whistling innocently* I use the icon when I'm irritated with someone, but not like... actually deeply upset. It's my "jokingly" annoyed icon. ^^; I have lots of those...


The text is a reference to a Snow Patrol song called "Headlights on Dark Roads." It goes:

For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
Hit me hard enough to wake me
And lead me wild to your dark roads

Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
'Cuz I'm so tired of all this fear

I think of it as a song for Alex because Alex has a history of just... strings of men that never get too attached. He tends to get thought of as someone you can 'have fun with' but don't actually intend to settle down with. This song reflects Alex's desire to find someone who will stop thinking of him as a 'traffic jam' - something you get stuck in for a while and then are happy to get out of, again - and actually hold on to him, take him, keep him... and stay.

Oh, and... I use it when I have Alex-related posts, usually. Is all. ^^

I LOVE THIS MEME!! Icons are Yay and awesome. :3

yoinked from the_hylozoist this time. XD

I swear I do meme binges... >> I'm sorry... I'll update with something real-life related next time, I swear... :3

Years roleplaying: umm... 2... and a half? Wow. O_o Not long...

Least favorite muse?: ... um. Out of all the characters I've RPed... ... My least favourites are the ones that irritate me because I can't seem to RP their personalities right. A.K.A. Ray. You beyotch. Can't get him right... Always feel like he's off.

Male or female muses?: I have both. But I like my boys more. >>

Oldest character played?: Ni. She was my first. :3 She started everything~

Longest muse played?: Well... I'm still RPing Ni, so since she was the first and is still in use... I suppose she is longest played. But not -most- played. Alex is by FAR, the MOST played.

Newest muse?: Aidan. Brand-new. Just making his first appearance as of last night. Still not sure what I think of him...

Which muse of yours would be most likely to...

Jump off a bridge?: But... that would just be stupid. My characters are not stupid. I suppose if like... a dozen Hook (cops) were after him and he couldn't get away... Alex -might- jump off a bridge to try and escape. But. He'd fully expect to survive, right? ;)
Get drunk and pass out?: None of my characters really drink... except Ray. Ray gets drunk when he gets emo. He would so pass out. -_-
Kill somebody in a very unorthodox way?: Ty? If he had a reason to? or... Pru might 'cute' someone to death?
Be far too hyper for their own good?: Ya. Alex. ... Ya. XD
Be raped?: Well... a few of my characters -have- been. But in the future-like? Probably Alex. Everyone else seems to be more paranoid/safe as a result, but Alex is and has always been attracted to dangerous types. And he doesn't always think with his brain.
Get lost and refuse to ask for directions?: Con. He's your typical boy. :P Silly boys~
Get lung cancer?: Erm... nobody of mine smokes? Well... not tobacco, anyway... >>
Star in a horror movie?: Ni. She'd be a great screamer. >3 And she'd LOVE being in a real movie. She'd get such a kick...
Star in a whore movie?: um... ... nobody? I don't think mine, would. Any of them... well... maybe Alex would if he needed the money? But I don't see that happening any time real soon...
Star in a video game?: Cas would kick ass.
Make the world a better place?: Doyle. He's always trying to change the world for the better.
Have a torrid gay love affair?: Alex. ... Ya. This one, again... kind of obvious?

( and etc... this was kinda fun :) )

once again, yoinked from merry_witch because I cannot freaking sleep, lately... z______z

Rules (Actually, they're more like guidelines...)

Here's the deal: People who have been tagged post their answers and replace any question they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves. Tag 8 people. Those who are tagged cannot refuse. These 8 people must state who they were tagged by. You cannot tag the person who tagged you.

I don't tag, either... so... erm... anyhoo. On with the questions?

( snip, snip... )

yoinked from merry_witch ^^

1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Fill in the film title once it's guessed.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions.

( yays movies~ )

Enough for now. ^^ Maybe add later~ I would be very impressed if anyone knows #8. XD

Because writing makes me feel good?

>>; This one may seem familiar... maybe... to some of you...

As requested by pris84... we have a repeat of a meme with a different five characters. XD

1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.
2. Make them answer the following questions.
3. Then tag three people.
4. Feel free to go ahead and add some questions yourself!
5. Be prepared to answer any questions people feel need to be asked.

( Characters: Alex, Ray, Ni, Halla, and Shane )

I wanted to write some characters that don't get seen a lot? Umm... Yay? Warning for all those who try this, though... Doing it with characters that don't necessarily like each other, just because you want to hear what they'd say... makes this meme take at least three times as long to write... -_- They just do not cooperate...

( Characters: Doyle, Con, Kev, Ty, and Jack - Hackers are Hawt? )

So I was writing yesterday... a lot... and it just gets to the point where you can't write anymore and you need some distraction... LJ f-lists are good distractions... >> Problem is, I'm actually pretty well keeping up with it and there wasn't much I had to read (this is a good thing, tho). But then, I stumbled upon alaira's music meme and well... memes make even better distractions... Did this yesterday, but posting today, 'cuz I didn't have time yesterday to actually do that after I was done... >>

Step 1. Put your playlist on random.
Step 2. Post a line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3. Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly. NO GOOGLING! That's cheating, kids!

1. Love can mend your life, but love can break your heart

2. Save those pretty words; Hush now baby, this heart has learned...

3. I've been watching your world from afar; I've been trying to be where you are; and I've been secretly falling apart, unseen.

4. Well you are the one, the one who lies close to me, Whispers hello I missed you quite terribly. I fell in love, in love with you suddenly

5. Even the pretty girls think that being nice is cool.

6. And you caught me off-guard, Now I'm runnin' and screamin'

7. Cuttin' off the phone. Leave me the fuck alone. Tomorrow I'll be beggin' you to come home.

8. The hot July moon saw everything. My first taste of love oh bittersweet. Green on the vine. Like _________ ____.

9. That's where this ends. No mistakes, no misbehaving. I was doing so well. Could we just be friends?

10. If I pretend that nothin' ever went wrong, I can get to my sleep, I can think that we just carried on

11. I think I was wrong. I think you were right, that all my angry words, Will keep me up at night.

12. Don't pretend, I think you know I'm damn precious. And hell yeah, I'm the mother-fuckin' princess.

13. Truth be told, I've tried my best, but somewhere along the way, I got caught up in all there was to offer, and the cost was so much more than I could bear.

14. And if you want love, then make it. Swim in a deep sea of blankets. Take all your big plans and break 'em.

15. Already I'm so lonesome, I could die.

16. A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect. Every action in this world will bear a consequence. If you wade around forever you will surely drown.

17. If it's time that you need, I'll give it. And if it's the wine that's my greed, I'll admit it

18. I wanna breeze and an open mind. I wanna swim in the ocean, Wanna take my time for me. All me.

19. My pressure on your hips, sink in my fingertips, to every inch of you, because I know that's what you want me to do

20. Another love before my time, made your heart sad an' blue. And so my heart is payin' now, for things I didn't do.

21. Oh, I don't know why she's leaving, or where she's gonna go. I guess she's got her reasons, but I just don't want to know.

22. So they went down and they sat on the pier. He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care. I got no one to send a letter to. Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?

23. Well I don't want to be lonely no more. I don't want to have to pay for this. I don't want another lover at my door. It's just another heartache on my list.

24. You see it everyday, all the people standing at the train station. Left, right, left, right, left, right. We don't talk to each other now. What an alien nation...

25. What really hurt me is I broke your heart. Baby you were a good girl and I had no right.
