    September
    It's September. EEEEEEEEEEE! Yay for Spring! Bring on those sunny days (and that hayfever >.<)! It's 20 or so days until I meet arklan, butterballs, ili_chan, and I think potentially azztec, moggles, kritaan, elf_evenstar, and aelfwyn! Am I missing anyone?! Regmooooot.Then it's 24 days from today until I meet iloveyoursoul! Yay!If what they say about meeting people off the Net is true, that it's dangerous, then I best shine my dagger. xD But seriously, I hope these people realise I'm shy and have no self-confidence what-so-ever! Just a random tidbit: Colgate 360 tootbrushes are the shit! I thought my old toothbrush was good, but I was so wrong! Prison Break rocks forever.I'm off to see if I have any bids on ebay. >:)Namarie! (Woah, haven't said that for a while. I watched TTT the other day. :D )[x]Ande.

    Layout
    Ah! At last! A new layout. Boxer is so out of fashion these days, which is a bit of a shame, because I really like Boxer. But oh well. And that's right, people! Layouts DO have fashions, as do icons and every kind of graphic imaginable. Everything on the Internet goes through trends. In a year people will be like "iTunes? Pfft!". Just you wait and see. This layout was faithfully adopted from peoplemachines and comes highly recommended from me! Please pay no heed to the header. I need desperately to make a new one, and stat! I can't even remember the last time I made a header. I kinda miss making graphics, but since I'm upstairs now, and without a desk, I find it hard because the touchpad + Photoshop + me = no. Without a mouse I'm useless and frustrated. OMNG! reTREAT is creeping up very quickly! It's hard for me to contain my excitement about it! It's gonna be awesome meeting up with iloveyoursoul and cruising along the Great Ocean Road. If only we had a convertible. That'd be suhweet! But, we'll just have to settle for my little Holden Astra. So long as we have music and wheels and endless opportunities I'll be content. ;)[x]Ande.

    WoOOoaAaaAAaHHhhHH
    I'm going to be an aunty! That is SO weird. My eldest brother's wife is 3 months pregnant; due on Valentine's day. xDThis is so unexpected and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Excited, obviously! And happy for my bro and sister-in-law, but woah. I'm not even sure it's gonna affect me much, seeing as I live 6 hours' drive from them. My mum's thrilled, though! I've never in my life seen her like this -- actually showing an emotion! Lol. It's suhweet. :DShit, gotta go to table tennis. ;)[x]Ande.

    CafePress
    I've given in to the lure that is CafePress. I spent hours today resizing and resaving all of the Illustrator projects I've made in order to upload them to Cafepress and put the designs onto products. I hope I've made the right choices. It's amazingly difficult to fit the right designs onto the right products. But anyway, I should just cough up the link already. xDMy store is here.I'd really really really appreciate any support, feedback or suggestions you have to offer. Thanks everyone![x]Ande.

    May be offensive to some viewers
    Omg. I just watched Fight Club. It is OMFGSOGOOD! Why hasn't anyone ever told me to watch this before? Just kidding, Erin! It totally wasn't what I expected. Argh! I want to talk to you about it, E, but I won't be online for like forever. Forever being a day and a half. Stupid fucksucking volunteer work! No, really. I like volunteering. >.>Woah, should've put a goddamn rating on this post. I do apologise if I offend innocent eyes.But hell, while I'm at it - I feel like ranting. So I will. Cos I do what I fucking want when I want! Except ...when other people tell me what to do.I have to scan photos all day tomorrow for a school that fucked up my bloody life. I spent four years in that hellhole prison of a school; being fed lethal abuse every fucking day by prime losers that craved attention from their messed-up parents and never got it. I copped it every day; remarks from bullies, spitting fire at their vulnerable target. Fresh meat being grilled and chewed, swallowed whole. I stank of pain; I stank of hurt. But the inflamation persisted, the forked tongues. Men - wanting to be dragons with firey breath. Death - it ryhmes with breath - how pretty you did look. So shiny, so effulgent. I scratched at your surface. I itched to be your slave.But it's all over now. A jagged thorn in the timeline of my memory. Nothing but a scar. Or is it?Goddamn I write some crap. But I refuse to be ashamed of it. I'm not even going to read it over. Just deal. Everyone has a dark side.Get busy living, or get busy dying.[x]Ande.

    I should make this place a FO zone.
    So, right now I feel as though my life's over before it even began. A strange concept, I admit. But that's just how I feel. It's almost like I'm retired. I'm a fucking recluse, bound to my parent's house, abused daily by this drug known as the Internet.I try to change. I try to treat every day as a fresh start. I vow to grasp onto this thing called life; get a job, socialise, move out of home, all that responsible life-y stuff. But I trap myself in, restricted by limited self esteem, my total lack of confidence, my raging immaturity, my fear of rejection and humiliation. I'm so weak that I laugh. Yes, picture me laughing. Wait, no, don't look at me! I'm shy....Fuck. I can't even complain properly. I have to add in humour so as to distract from the reality I'm trying to portray. At least there's one thing I look forward to every day. Chatting to a certain somebody - you know who you are - and my other various friends on the Net. And roleplay. Why do I like roleplay so much? Because it's another escape from my poor existence; a chance to take on the guise of someone other than myself. Like acting on a keyboard without getting paid.Ohh, this is depressing. >.>

    Hey all
    Hey all.How are you all? I haven't updated this thing properly in ages. >.> Shame on me. I wouldn't be surprised if my Flist has halved in sized, lol. I can't remember the last time I read someone's journal. :( It's the fault of Lost: The Island RP. I spend waaay too much time there. I blame that on __boone and readywreadywit and their addictive roleplay posts, haha. -Hides from their wrath.-I actually made icons tonight! For me that's a freakin' miracle. Any graphic making has been so very sporatic of late. My muse comes and goes like the rain. Which? We've actually been getting a lot of. Weird.Ok, so I have a Friends Only banner to share. It's of Ian Somerhalder.++ Credit is essential.++ Please comment if you take it. Feedback is yummy.++ Also, if you could upload it to your own server, that'd be neat.++ Enjoy!Oh, and there's a few icons to match:01 02 03 04 05I won't be around til Tuesday (going to the city), so if I don't reply to your comments straight away, don't be offended![x]Ande.Edit: I just realised how big that banner is. If someone wants me to resize it, let me know. I can do it when I get back on Tuesday.

    Tagged by helplessly_hopePost your very first icon that you made (if you have it, if you don't, the OLDEST one that you have) along with your newest icon. This will allow you to show how you have improved in iconing skills and tag five friends to see how they have improved.One of my oldest: Animation. Hee! How bad. Remember when pixel fonts were cool? -Shudder.- That icon wasn't my first, though. The first one I ever did was of Angel. Back in my Ulead GIF Animator days; way before I got Photoshop. -Pets PS.-Newest one: I'm supposed to tag 5 people, but I don't know who to tag! So if you feel like doing it, go ahead. ;)[x]Ande.

    I made wallpapers
    I made wallpapers! I never make wallpapers, so yay, this is something new. Sorry about the identical colour schemes. I just like those colours. Click once to enlarge, and twice to make them as big as they get. Oh yeah, and there's icons to match. Though who uses a wallpaper and an icon on the same page? -Blink.- I should maybe make headers instead. Anyway...

    Shannon and Boone fic.
    So, I never write fic. I'm more of a roleplay person - which, I guess, is fic in a roundabout way. But this? It's just fic. I know I'm not the best writer in the world (far from it), but maybe you'll be able to appreciate this little piece.Oh yeah, and it's a flashback from the plane. Feedback loved. Thanks, guys! Sorry I've been neglecting you lately. I've not been in an LJ mood, though that is a lame excuse. -Sigh.-_____________________________________________________Her heart thundered rapidly as the plane shifted with violent movements, belongings flying in all directions. Without even realising it, her hand had gripped onto Boone's arm, clinging to him for safety. The fear of uncertainty raged through her body even as the magazine in her lap slipped to the floor. The light behind the "fasten seatbelt" sign raged into action. She knew she should obey the order, but her body seemed paralised; liquid fear running through her veins and making them concrete. Never had she experienced something quite like this; the absolution of terror. The certainty of knowing they were 42 thousand feet above the sea was no comfort to her. Little isles were scattered in the great ocean but Shannon couldn't decide which was worse: landing in the pliant and consuming water or the unforgiving bumps of islands. Boone was yelling from the side, screaming at her to put on the belt. She honestly tried, but her limbs wouldn't obey her mind's commands. Finally, he leaned in and did it for her, securing it around her waist. He looked her in the eyes, saying something, attempting to comfort her. She didn't hear him; only heard the hard rattle of the overhead compartments, the tinkling of cuttlery piling to the ground. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a man thrash into the ceiling. Her eyes widened, grip tightening on her step-brother's arm. Her throat constricted, her breath becoming raspy, airflow tight. She felt a harsh wave of air coming from behind them. The plane had broken in two, the rush of air so extreme that hair lashed at her face, causing her to clench shut her eyes. She attempted to scream, but her mind wouldn't allow it.She felt pressure around her cheeks and mouth and realised Boone had put a gas mask on her. She focused her intense gaze on him as her spare hand went up to support the mask. "We're going to die," she said solemnly through the plastic. The certainty of it writhed through her consciousness. Heated tears pricked at her eyes.The man stared back, not knowing how to reply. He wanted to assure her otherwise, that they'd be OK, but he felt certain she was right. His only response was to lean in her direction, embrace her as well as he could manage in the awkward seats and hope for the best. The shell of the plane wobbled hurriedly in a downward spiral, an island coming into view through the broken door of the cockpit. Boone tucked Shannon's head against his chest with clammy hands. Her shallow breathing could be heard through the thickness of the mask, choking sobs rocking her chest. He'd expected to have passed out by now, and he could feel the shortness of oxygen, the lightheadedness; but so far he was still conscious. He pulled her a little closer, stroking her hair as best he could as the nose impacted with the dune.Bodies splayed everywhere. Someone's blood splatted across Boone's forehead and he shut his eyes, leaning his head down to Shannon's level. He felt them both thrown into their belts, heads rocketing forward as the plane struggled to stop. Screams tilted through the air, warping everyone's minds, striking panic in people's hearts. Deafening crashes took people by surprise.The fuselage settled, rocking casually on the sand and finally coming to a halt. Shannon didn't dare open her eyes, not willing yet to accept death. Boone shifted, loosening his grip on the blonde and immediately undoing his seat constraint. "Shan?" he said, pulling off his mask and then hers. "Shan, we made it."She lifted her head, felt a strain in her neck as she looked up at her step-brother. Her heart still thundered, assuring her that she was alive. She was about to smile with relief when an explosion split through the plane and chaos ensued. Shannon screamed._________________________________________________Hmm. What do you think? Don't give up my day job?[x]Ande.
