ZOMG. I. WATCHED. SPIRITED AWAY.
finally.
I am officially in love with that movie. I freaking adore Haku! HE'S SO CUTE! And totally sweet and stuff to boot. 8D
I'm happy. Very, very, happy. Every single time I tried to watch that movie as I kid, I would get to a certain point and then we'd have to go somewhere or do something. AND IT WAS AT THE SAME SPOT. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
And Paramore's CD "Brand New Eyes" comes out on Tuesday. @.@
I finally got off my lazy butt (got off? XD) and made a deviantART account.
Clicketh
Aaaaand I have graphics!
Reaching For Heaven (I am in love with this wallpaper! I loike it even more than Happy Ending, and that's saying something.)
fall A W A Y (A banner for my new shop. Obviously, the shop is called fall A W A Y.)
That's all for today.

Aww, shit...
Really. I failed the chem test. I'm officially SCREWED OVER. *sigh*
Oh, well. I have some crappy graphics to report due to my crappy mood. -.-
Runaway Sky (my favorite line from Carrie Underwood's song "Get Out Of This Town")
The Painted Lady (random Katara-themed sig from a couple days ago, when I was in an Avatar-y mood ^^)
Determination (another Katara-themed sig. I just love her, don't you?)
The Avatar Spirit (Aang-themed, obviously. That cool purple-y Aang from "The Guru")
*big sigh*
I'm gonna go read some Kataang fanfiction (all by Lyralocke -- SHE'S MY HERO) to brighten my mood. *trudges off*

GUESS WHAT YOU GUUUYS?
Paramore's new CD comes out in 9 days! I need twenty bucks, and I need it fast. =/
And, I've got a new chapter of Untitled up! This one's theme is "love":
click for the niceness~
Andandand, there are some new sigs.
Decoy (Paramore=<3)
Love Drunk (I just love that song!)
Fallin' For You (I liked that one so much that I made a GB for it XD)
Okay, so. I'm in some serious shiz right now with my grade in chemistry (does anyone else hate that class as much as I do?), 'cause I've already failed one test, and I'm pretty sure I failed the one we had on Friday, too. And, since I'm already making a 70, that'll put my grade somewhere in the 60's. I CAN'T FAIL. MY PARENTS WILL KILL ME. And, considering the fact that I would love to go to a good college (and the one I really want to get in to is way expensive, not to mention super exclusive), I have to pass that class. With flying colors.
The thing is, my stupid teacher doesn't ever give us any relevant information, so we have to read the book. Which would be understandable, except for the fact that the stuff on the test DOESN'T COME FROM THE BOOK. God, what else am I supposed to do?!

hai guys~~
Pshaw. I saw Julie and Julia last night! Awesome movie. It's really funny, actually. ^^ Has anyone seen The Devil Wears Prada? 'Cause Meryl Streep and that guy that plays Nigel are a couple in J&J.
And I have some new graphics. Actually, quite a few. Lots and lots of sigs.
You Found Me
One of Those Girls
Such a Mystery
Paparazzi (for a GB)
Hands Up (fff major fail XD)
Hope (for a GB; kudos to whoever knows what episode I got that screenie from ^^)
Fallen Angel (for a GB; <33)
The Crown Slips (for a GB; another fail)
Stand in the Rain (for a GB; <33)
This one was for my friend Thistle; she's freaking awesome, imho.
But It's So Much More Fun To Be Bad.
Inspired by Mika's "We Are Golden":
No Giving Up
Inspired by John Rzeznik's "I'm Still Here":
Can't Break Me
And this awesome GB (by Nightsky!) where you have to make three avatars that all have something to do with Indigo Girls' song "Galileo":
1. Fear of Motion -- 2. How Long? -- 3. Highest Light
*huff* So... many... graphics...
Yeah. Uhm...
THE END.

Quizzes 8D
Yup. Quizzes. Those fun little things the older members of Ww just love. Mine is fail, but I'm posting it anyway. ^^
Click for the epicness
...fail
Anyway. There's a graphic battle I made for Glimmer, to the song If Only Tears Could Bring You Back by Midnight Sons (from Pokemon: The First Movie). My entry isn't too terribly bad, but it's certainly not one of my best.
Tears

...I know, right?
I am horrible. It has been so long since I last posted, it's not even funny. But, I have some awesome graphics! There's one wallpaper that I am especially proud of.
Who I Am (for a GB, to the song Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. Does anyone else think that's fun to say? XD)
Dream in Black and White (also for a GB, to... some other song. XD It's totally fail, and yet I'm one vote away from winning. Over Squirrelflight. No, I don't know how, either. O.o)
Fail shop banner
...fall in love? (a random sig I made to satisfy my graphical muse. Lyrics to the song The Saltwater Room, by Owl City.)
Web banner (this one was on the Requests board. I think it came out rather nicely. ^^)
My newest awesome sig
And now, for those awesome desktops I promised. ^^
Fireflies (this one is my least favorite, so I'm posting it first. Don't ask how my logic works; I'm not sure I have any idea myself. O.o Though I am proud of the eyes. I made them blue, and they are by far my favorite part of the wallpaper.)
Happy Ending (one of my favorites. I love this song. 8D)
On the Wing (again, lyrics by Owl City. On the Wing.)
Personalized (this one's strictly for me. Obviously, that's my name.)
Show Me What I'm Looking For (does anyone else love that song as much as I do?)
Toes (I can almost guarantee it's not what you think. ^^ Inspired by Zac Brown Band's song Toes.)
...And that's all for graphics!
Well, we've had a death in my family. My adopted uncle's biological grandfather. Technically, he's not related to me, but I loved him just the same. We went to the funeral on Thursday. Apparently, he had 10 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren. Wow.
Some kid at my baby brother's daycare got swine flu, and since he was in contact with the girl on Monday, my mother thinks we're all going to die. Jk, jk. But really, she's paranoid, and none of us are allowed to go anywhere. It's stupid, not to mention dreadfully boring. But on the bright side, I have plenty of time to write fanficiton now!
Speaking of, I found a prompt on LJ called 50scenes, and I'm planning to do one for Teen Titans. There will be a lot of BBxRae, possibly some RobxStar, possibly some KFxJinx, and definitely some character-centric fics. Actually, the first one is Terra-centric... Lots of people hate her, and I would too -- one final good deed doesn't make up for so much evil -- but I see too much of myself in her to be able to. I finished the first on earlier today. One down, 49 to go!
God, that was long!

w-w-what?!
I haven't posted in, like, a week. That's seriously pathetic, even for me.
Oh, well. I have lots of epic fail graphics to make up for it! ...if that makes any sense...
Anyway, here they are.
A GBA entry (the theme is quotes)
Another GBA entry (theme is freedom)
Faster (a sig, with a click, using the Paramore song Hallelujah)
A big fail wallpaper for Jayfeather
Put Your Records On (yet another GBA entry, theme is the song Put Your Records On by Corinne Bailey Rae)
The avatar to go with the above sig:
A shop request:
Yeah. I went on a trip to Fredricksburg (crap, did I even spell that right?), the home of... um... lots of German food. ^^
It was pretty cool. It's a kitschy little place.
I also got an idea for a BBxRae AU (alternate universe) fanfic that I've started. The first chapter isn't done yet, so obviously it isn't posted yet.

*sigh*
I'm so bored. But, I have a new banner/sig thingie. The lyrics are, as usual, from a Paramore song. The title is When It Rains, and it's actually really sad. I don't know if it's meant to be sad, but... Oh, well. It's a good song nonetheless.
Why Can't You Stay?
I made a 150x150 avatar using the same pic, and that's gonna be my new FF.net profile av. I just used the name of the song for this 'un, though. ^^
I watched the movie Knowing last night, and I have to say...
IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME.
Kinda creepy at some points, but still. Overall, it's a great movie, and we were making fun of it the whole time, which made it slightly less creepy. My little brother was afraid to sleep in his room, but the fear was needless. It's not supposed to be a scary movie, per se, just a suspense thing. For those of you that have seen the movie Signs, with the aliens, you know what I mean.
I'm blubbering now. Bleh.

OMG NEW BOOOOOK
I GOT SARAH DESSEN'S NEW BOOK. *fangirl squeal*
Yessss. She's my favorite author, and her newest book is called Along For the Ride. I need to make a sig for it... Anyway, I read it all in one day. I got at like, 5 PM and stayed up 'til 1 AM reading it. *contented sigh* I'm crazy happy now, but tired...
*runs off in search of caffeine*
Oh, and a new sig as well. Though it's more of a banner, really...
We're Not the Same
The lyrics are from Paramore's new song Ignorance (omg yes a new song).
Have I mentioned that I love Paramore? I have? Well, too bad. 8D
PARAMORE=<3
It's true.
And a totally fail GBA entry.
Hero
Like I said, fail. Meh.

Anyway. I made some pretty nice graphics in the two days I didn't post. Two were shop requests I did, and two for GBAs.
Curiosity
Sneaky and the avatar
Falling and the avatar
Summer
The first two are the requests, and the last two are the GBA entries. Oh, and I wrote a new fanfiction.

um...
I haven't posted in like three days. WTF. Anyway...
Two sigs. Well, they're more like banners, really, but who cares? One has a matching avatar. The other... well... doesn't. Ahem.
The Outside
I really like that one. It's my sig right now, too, so yeah. The next one is "Kiki's Delivery Service"-inspired. I was lucky enough yesterday to find a very high-quality, huge picture, so that's what I used.
I'm Gonna Fly...
Here's the avatar that goes with the first sig. I'm gonna put up the pic and the link, 'cause it has a transparent bit there at the end, and it won't look as nice against the black as it does on white.
The Outside (avatar -- white background)
Hmm. That was a short post...

++just another pretty -- l i e
Yup. I'm, like, obsessed with the song Here We Go Again by Demi Lovato. I really like the line, "but it's just another pretty lie, 'cause I break down every time you come around," so I went a little crazy and made three versions of the same avatar. There's the original (the 100x150 version), the standard (the 100x100 version), and the FF.net version (150x150), and they're listed in that order.
Just Another Pretty Lie (original)
Just Another Pretty Lie (standard)
Just Another Pretty Lie (FF.net version)
Don't ask why I used a picture of a tuned-over plastic cup. I don't even really know. But whatever, I still love them.
Oh, and HAPPY 4TH OF JULY, EVERYONE!

July 3rd?
Why are places closed on the third of July? It's weird.
But whatever, that's not really why I'm posting. I have yet another new sig. It's Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez. Why, you ask? Because they're awesome, that's why. And plus, they have good music. Like One and the Same and Here We Go Again. Anyway, here's the sig.
One and the Same
It's anime week on Ww, so I has a Raven sig. It's not very good at all, but I guess it'll do.
(bunny) Raven
I got Carrie Underwood's CD (Carnival Ride) two days ago (way late, I know), and I love it. The song The More Boys I Meet makes me laugh, Crazy Dreams is incredibly inspirational (hairbrush singer -- that's me!), and Twisted fits Raven and Beast Boy. So, I am officially happy.
...Wow, that was short...

Yah. So, if you're curious about the title, I'll just go ahead and post it. WARNING: YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ WHAT IS POSSIBLY THE BEST YOUR-MOM JOKE EVER CREATED.
Click for hilarity
...Now for the sigs.
Everything
Waking Up in Vegas
And a GBA entry. The theme is life, obviously. Since I'm currently using it as my sig on Ww, it has a matching avatar, too.
Life
I have new brushes. I had lots of fun with them.

I'm baaaaaaack!
Finally. After so long, I'm actually posting. So, after camp, I went to Florida for two weeks. I kinda thought I'd be able to post. Well, obviously I was wrong, and so I haven't posted for roughly three weeks. So sorry to anyone who was looking forward to me posting after camp (like anyone was XD)... So, to commemorate my homecoming, there are three new siggies and one new avatar! Only the first two sigs are avaliable for use, however. The avatar and th last sig were made for Socks on Warrior's Wish, so no stealing them, please. Anyway, here they are!
Let the Flames Begin
Too Much Heart to Go Around
The first is the name of a Paramore song that I really love. The second is from the Taylor Swift song Lucky You -- the first three or four lines, I believe. Here's Socks' set. And seriously, like I said before, no stealing. These were made for Socks and Socks alone.
One Day Closer
That's it for my first post in three weeks... Again, sorry about the long absence!

I will not be posting again until Saturday. Know why?
I'm going to camp!
There will be no new graphics or posts until then, 'kay? But anyway...
My birthday's tomorrow, and since I won't be at home, my parents gave me my present early.
THE BOX SET OF THE TWILIGHT SAGA. ALL HARDBACK.
I am so happy. Twilight is coming with me to camp, for when I have free time. Oh yeah, and for the 5-hour-long bus ride over there. Oh, well. See yu all next Saturday!

Couple sigs
Yup, a couple sigs. The pictures are from sobi.org, and it's actually the same cat. One is kinda random, but for the other I used some of the chorus lyrics from Miracle, by Paramore. ^^
Baby Steps
Waiting for a Miracle
I also made a Katara avatar, and I rather like how it turned out. But I gotta say, avatars are much harder than signatures, just because of the limited creativity space. Oh, well.
There are 167 days until New Moon premieres.

New pixel
There's a Katara pixel now, too, 'cause I was watching Avatar last night. ^^'
It was fun to make, but I'm not nearly as pleased with it as I was with the Raven one.
Katara's a kitty.
Eh. I'm bored.

Oww...
My right arm hurts like crap. Y'know why? 'Cause I just spent the last two hours making Raven into a cat pixel. Cloaks are a pain in the butt, seriously. But I really like how it came out. I left the ears poking out of the hood just because I didn't like how it looked without the ears. Anyway, here it is.
Raven shapeshifts now, too, apparently.
I did a GB entry a little while ago, and I really love it. It's really simple (as are all my graphics; maybe I have a simple complex as opposed to a complex complex ^^), but it's pretty.
Forever...
Hah. I'm gonna go ice my arm...

More BBxRae.
Yes, I know you're probably sick of it, but I'm not.
...Which is why I made another sig for their adorable little pairing (pun intended; you'll get it in a sec).
This time, I used lyrics from the Paramore (shocker there, right?) song Adore (hopefully you get the pun now). The words are all from the chorus, just not exactly in the order I have them in.
If I Let You Love Me
Since the words are opaque (again), I'll write them out. I can barely read them, and I"m the one who made it. ^^'
They're
if i let you love me, would you be the one i'm looking for?
Yeah, they're supposed to be all lowercase, 'cause that's how they are in the sig.
And actually, I think that all the screenies I used are from one episode... The End, Part 1, I think...
I forgot to put this in my last post, but I get all the screenshots from titansgo.net.

Ever Ever After
Yes! There's a graphics battle for the song Ever Ever After! I so love that song. Anyway, I had to make a sig/av set, and I adore my entry. If I end up actually using it as my sig, though, I'll need a clickie, 'cause it's kinda tall... Anyway, here it is!
Ever Ever After
And I made a little 450x150 sig that I'm actually using just now. The lyrics are from the Paramore song Miracle. Has anyone else noticed that that song fits RavenxBeast Boy? Anyway, you should be able to figure out pretty easily why the eye colors are what they are. I so just gave you the answer, anyway. ^^'
Miracle

Freaking awesome.
There's a Ww-wide graphics battle. Holy crap, it is amazing. My entry is fail, however.
fail entry is fail
I made a RavenxBeast Boy sig, too (finally), but it is also fail, due to the fact that I couldn't find ANY high-quality screenshots of the Spellbound hug. Oh, well.
RaexBB=<3
The lyrics in the background of the bottom right corner are from the Paramore (I'm so obsessed with them XD) song My Heart, and the ones you can actually read are from their song Pressure. If you can't read them, they're
I am finding out that maybe I was wrong,
That I can't do this alone.
Stay with me, this is what I need, please?.
Yeah. Totally pwnsome song, 'cept for the screamo bit at the end. But whatever. Today was my last day of school, and I feel like this big fat load has just been lifted from my shoulders. No more stress, just going to camp and Florida and hanging out with my friends, my only worries being what I'm going to eat for breakfast tomorrow... Oh yeah, and when I'll get my New Moon movie tickets. *dramatic pause*
OMFG HAVE YOU SEEN THE TRAILER?! IT'S SO FREAKING AWESOME.
I will share it.

My whole day, no, my whole week, has officially been made. I am so happy right now it isn't even funny (actually, it probably is).
But on another note, I wrote a new fanfiction! Finally. It's been so long since I've written one... Anyway, if you like the RavenxBeast Boy pairing in Teen Titans, I would greatly appreciate it if you would take the time to read it.

Whoa, this is my 3rd post today...
Seriously. This is the most I've ever posted in one day... Oh, well.
I like the song Pressure, by Paramore. I think that one fits Beast Boy and Raven, too, or at least some parts do. Anyway, remember how my Inspiation Tank was running on empty earlier? Well, it got filled up a little again. This banner took me maybe five minutes to make, but I rather like it. I saw a siggie on Ww with this really nice aged effect, and I thought I'd give it a shot. I think I did all right. ^^
Better Off Without Me
The avatar that goes with it is pretty simple, but I kinda like it, too. The three boxes in the bottom right corner are actually transparent, so if you to Infinte Originality to look at it they will be blue.
Yeah. The Inspiration Tank (I'm just gonna call it the IT from now on, 'kay?) is once again running on vapors...
Posted by Skyrose at 8:04 PM 0 comments
Fences
I just got Paramore's Riot! album yesterday (way, way, way late, I know), and I have since listened to the song Fences like, eight times. Seriously, that song is freaking amazing. So I made a (very bland) graphic with the lyrics.
Fences
Yes, it is supposed to be just black and white. The first lines of the song gave me the idea to do it that way (I'm sitting in a room/Made up of only big white walls).
And I did end up making one for My Wish, and here it is. This one's kinda bland, too, but whatever. My inspiration tank is running on vapors.
My Wish
I GOT BREAKING DAWN TODAY. Hard back cover, no less. ^^ It was like, $25, though, which made me feel kinda bad, since I asked my grandmother to buy it for me, knowing full well that she would even if I didn't ask... And I got a book that teaches you how to play the piano, which is good, since I have a piano and I don't really know how to play it... And now I'm rambling. I'll shut up now.

*sob*
As much as I'm glad that school is almost over (10:00 Wednesday morning!), I'm also really sad that is has to end so soon (Soon? June 3rd? WTF?!). My English and Choir teachers I'll especially miss, and probably my Spanish teacher, too, not to mention all the friends that I only see in school...
Anyway. My English teacher gave us a little goodbye speech yesterday, and played us a song called My Wish, by Rascal Flatts. I freaking cried, I was so sad (pathetic, I know). But it is a good song... So good, I think I'll post the lyrics!
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with the choice and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' 'til you find the window.
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,
But more than anything, more than anything
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it to.
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to,
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too.
Yeah, this is my wish.
I hope you never look back but you never forget
All the ones who love you in the place you left.
I hope you always forgive and you never regret.
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.
But more than anything, yeah more than anything
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it to.
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to,
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too.
Yeah, this is my wish.
My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it to.

Yeah, this is my wish.

"I'd Lie"
So y'know how I was looking for songs to fit the Beast BoyxRaven pairing? I'd Lie, by Taylor Swift, fits it to a T (pun intended). But, you'd only agree if (like me) you honestly thought that Raven is pining away for him. If you don't think that but support the shipping, you probably won't agree. If anyone has any fitting songs, please leave a comment. Like I said, I need inspiration. Desperately. I'm gonna go make graphics now...

Teen Titans
I watched a Teen Titans marathon yesterday. I love that show...Raven is officially my favorite character. And does anyone else support the whole Beast BoyxRaven thing? 'Cause I think it's adorable. ^^
I need to find songs that fit them, because I'm planning on writing a fanfic for the pairing, and I need inspiration. Desperately. So, I'm gonna go find some.

Lucky you...
I love the song Lucky You, by Taylor Swift. Then again, I love everything by Taylor Swift, but still... It's such a sweet song! So I decided to make a siggie for it! This is probably one of my all-time favorite graphics.
Lucky You
Yeah. There's an avatar and clickie that goes with it, but it's really simple, so it'd be kinda pointless to post it. But there is one that I made for a graphics battle a couple days ago that I like. It's an avatar-only GB using the song Livin' On A Prayer. I took the last couple lines of the song for this.
All You've Got (100x100)
All You've Got (100x150)
I like the 100x100 one better, but I think they're both pretty dull...

It was awwwwwesome.
There was a food fight at my school yesterday. I was too worked up about the choir thing to remember about it, but still. Like the title says, it was awwwwwesome. Also, it the first real food fight I've ever seen. But I actually missed most of it, 'cause I was at the vending machines getting a Dr. Pepper. I heard lots of screaming, and at first I thought it was a fight, so I went to look, and saw: 1. People running at me (one of my best friends jumped over a table), and 2. Lots of stuff flying through the air. So then I ran back and got my soda. Then our principal got really pissed off, and that wasn't fun... But whatever. It was still, like, the highlight of my entire week.

Oh, crap...
Yeah. So. Y'know my choir audition?
WELL, IT SUCKED.
Seriously. My voice cracked, and I messed up really badly on one of the songs, and he made me sing the high key on the Star-Spangled Banner. Even after I told him I couldn't hit the high notes. I was shaking the entire time, and I cried when I was finished.
But enough with that. My friend's fifteenth birthday was today. Happy birthday, Akeno-chan! She got a Twilight poster with Edward and Bella on it. I love Twilight... Good thing she does, too. Anyway, here's the birthday graphic. Akeno-chan loves We the Kings. ^^
Check Yes Juliet
Here's one I made yesterday. I kinda like it, but... meh. The lyrics are from the song This Is My Time by Raven Symone. It's the credit song for The Princess Diaries 2.

YES!!
ONLY TWO MORE WEEKS OF SCHOOL LEFT!
Then I'm off to camp, and then to Florida! I can't wait. Next week is my last week of school, and it's not even an entire week, as we have Memorial Day off. Then I have exams Monday and Tuesday, and one on Wednesday (last day of school). I only have to stay until 10 AM that day. Then I can officially say that I survived my freshman year of high school. Yipee for me. I swear, I live for summer. It's so nice to not have to get up at 6 AM every day...
I have another new layout (obviously)! This one is darker, which I like, but it has MUSIC. My life revolves around music. So, naturally, I decided I'd use it. Hah...
And speaking of music, I have an audition for my school's Selcet Choir on Friday, and I think that when I go in the room to sing, I'll pass out. Or throw up. Whichever comes first. It isn't so much the singing that scares me; I can sing in front of my class of about 40 girls no problem. It's who I'm auditioning for. If it was my teacher, it would be fine, but it's not. It's her husband (the director of the music department), and... HE SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME. So, that should be fun. I'll shut up now.

LOST
OH. MY. GOD. The LOST season finale was freaking EPIC. For those of you who saw it and know what I'm talking about, then you probably feel the same way (no offence if you don't...). The only bad part?
THEY KILLED MY FAVORITE CHARACTER. WTF?!
Yeah. Juliet died. I'm soooo sad... I wore black to school today, 'cause I was in mourning...

More fanfiction!
OMIGOD. I HAVE A NEW FANFIC IDEA.
Yeah. Thanks go to my friend for the idea, but I get to write it. WOO! It's gonna be a V.B. Rose fic, and also my first shot at any sort of angst, no matter how slight. So yeah. Excitement. And since I just realized that most of you probably don't know what my Fanfiction.net pen-name is, I'll tell you. It is Kasumi the Stargazer. *shameless self-promotion* Visit and read the fics, please!

More desktops...
Yes. I rather like them, really. One is very, very simple, one took me about 45 minutes to make, and the other is in the same style as my Ayu and Nina ones. Anyway, here they are.
Unsung
Piano=<3
Husky (+Anima)
So yeah. I read the awesome-est fanfic yesterday. I called You and Me, by an author named Audley. If you are a KyoxTohru shipper for Fruits Basket, you should read it. It's pretty dang good. And, if you listen to the song You and Me (by Lifehouse) while you read it (only at the part the song comes in, though), it's even better. It brought me to tears, literally.

Fanfiction=<3
Haha... Yes. I love/adore/am smitten with Fanifiction.net. It is amazing. Not that it hasn't always been, but still. I am, however, disappointed by the utter lack of V.B. Rose fics. There's only, like, four (two of which I wrote, one of the aforementioned that is by any means good) on the whole site. It is discouraging, but I digress.

Blah...
School is the suck. Seriously. Although I did watch a video of an autopsy yesterday in Biology, and I gotta admit, that was pretty cool. I'm in such a good mood today. Y'know why?
I READ THE TWENTY-SECOND VOLUME OF FRUITS BASKET. OMFG. *biglonghugegiganticfangirlsqueal* HOLY CRAP. I'm not going to post what happens, for the sake of the readers who haven't read it, but... I'll leave it at this: I cried. Right in the middle of my algebra class. Then I cried again on the bus ride home, because I read it AGAIN. *contented sigh* So, yeah, hence the good mood. And now... I'm not really so sure what to say, so I'll shut up now.

New Layout!
Woo! Yes.. I'm terribly sorry if all the colors are blinding anyone, but I positively adore the flashy rainbow-ness. So there.
EDIT:// BTW, the links are the same color as the normal text now. Just so ya know. ^^

OMG A WEB
Yeah, so, I finally got around to fixing my freebie site, Infinite Originality. Now it's all pretty and stuff, with a hot-air balloon layout. ^^ If ya want to see it, click the name. And, I made two new sigs... One is Kiki's Delivery Service-inspired, and the other is... random. But it's pretty, so I don't really care.
I'm Gonna Fly
Searching for the Sun
"Searching for the Sun" comes with an avatar that I am pretty darn proud of, so I'll put it up too. It only took me like, 5 seconds to make, but whatever. Again, it's pretty. ^^
I really want to open up a shop, but the last... *counts* THREE I had died within about two weeks. So I'm not sure if I'll try again or not. But I digress...

Graphics Battles...
Yup, the good ol' GBA... So, yeah. I made a couple things for graphics battles today, and they're both epic fail, but whatever. I'm posting them anyway.
Gives You Hell
Hello Seattle
Eh... yeah. I actually like the Hello Seattle one better. And if you've never heard that song, go to YouTube and look it up. Hello Seattle by Owl City.
Like I said, both are fails. Feh.

A Few Desktops
Hmm. I've gotten really into making character-themed desktops lately, so here are a few. And yeah, they're all basically the same style.
Ayu
Nina
They're the main characters from a manga called Ultra Maniac. I'm not so crazy about the Nina one, but I really like the Ayu. Did you know Ayu means trout?! I have this really cool siggie that I made too. It's really simple, but I think it came out okay.
One Step at a Time

First Post!
Woo, first post! Okay, so, here's the gist. I like making graphics. I'm not the best nor the brightest out there, because I don't have those amazingly awesome, flashy programs like Photoshop, but whatever. The things I make are simple, and often will have song lyrics on them. I especially like making desktop backgrounds, so those will show up most, but the occasional forum signature or avatar will pop up from time to time. This layout is only temporary, by the way. A nicer, cooler one will be up soon (hopefully).
