With the release of the Hunger Games 3 title (squee - Mockingjay!) and cover art (and the fact that the snow has made the unfortunate occurrence of Scholastic internship Wednesdays, much to my dismay and utter disappointment), I was inspired to make icons for my favorite Hunger Games / Catching Fire quotes from Peeta & Katniss.

Since I am such in a great mood, I'll be taking icon requests of anyone's favorite quote. Maximum of two per person. Give me the actual quote with correct spelling and punctuation pleas and the character's name. Comment below with the requests. :) I will be taking requests until Saturday, February 13, 2010 September 4, 2010 and completed requests will be posted here.

Ok, so today, I have absolutely wasted (well, not really in my terms) a productive day doing nothing but fangirl stuff.

I wasted away my morning browsing on some fanfiction (I am still neglecting to read dmhgficexchange  even if I am weeks behind - eep!!!) though I didn't find anything good.

Sigh, ok, I really don't like to talk about RL stuff on LJ but RL has induced another fangirl craze in me. My internship has gotten me crazed over the Hunger Games trilogy and now there's nothing I could do to stop it. It's probably not as terrible as my HP-obsession but it is still an obsession nonetheless.

I spent the afternoon polishing off the Peeta Mellark fanlisting, then proceeding to do the Katniss Everdeen fanlisting. (I got really obsessed with this new random quote generator snippet that I have found. It is too fun to use!) Building the websites - aka playing with the random quote generator - pretty much meant that I spent the whole afternoon looking up quotes from Hunger Games and Catching Fire. Which makes me want to reread both books but alas my copies are with my friends. Sigh.

So after realizing that I had spent the whole day on the computer, I chastised myself for being so irresponsible so naturally, I went downstairs to watch a movie or two on the new and snazzy Roku player that hooks up to my Netflix instant queue! (SO COOL!) I finally got around to watching Lost in Austen (as recommended by elvishly , I recall) which was a non-stop squee fest of three hours!

Now I am desperately hoping to dream of Mr. Darcy. *smacks self on the forehead*

I didn't watch the Golden Globes. Oh well. It's not the Oscars anyways. Going for a quick shower then back with my date with the Roku player. The English Patient awaits ... aka Lord Voldy.

Hey everyone! I just wanted to say Happy Holidays! Have a very spectacular New Year!

Quick shoutouts to floorcoaster, inadaze22, devils_succubus for the lovely v-gifts .

For an update on RL, I am actually away for the holidays in California. I'm enjoying myself so far, liking the time I've been spending with family. The weather has also been very lovely. It's a great break from frigid New Jersey. On the down side, I've been behind on my f-list and as well as reading on dmhgficexchange  much to my chagrin, but I am trying to read every chance I get.

Enjoy the rest of 2009!

Edit: aldjfloaijdf; UGH! Half my post got swallowed by the internet and is now floating through a black hole. Had to rewrite it..

Just a quick post to say that I've changed my layout.... Another Boyd one. I went for simplicity this time around. I wanted something clean. :)

The text on the banner is from the song "High Times" by Landon Pigg featuring the Turbo Fruits from the movie Whip It.

Have a nice day f-list.

I was in an actual icon-making mood this weekend (AKA procrastination). Finally switched to the Mac and I'm slowly getting used to using Photoshop. Really, the only difference is copying and pasting but still.

Anyways... The manipulation was sort of made by accident. I was making long overdue banners for dmhg_icontest when my sister went, "WHOA is that a real picture?!"
