+ Due to the acknowledgement that I've been making more and more of my entries f-locked, I realized that this is probably because I don't want the outside world to know about my personal life. To counter the belief that I don't update my LJ, I decided to make it known to the world that I do indeed use my LJ, but it may not be visible to all.

+ If  you would like to be added as a friend, just comment on this entry with the reason why you would like to be added. I may write up a little bio for myself in my profile, but until then, you're going to have to guess who I am and my interests by my open-to-all entries. DO NOT FEEL INTIMIDATED IN ASKING TO BE ADDED ON AS A FRIEND; we'd really have to have nothing in common for me to reject you. :D

+ Any occasional vids, fics, and art I may create and complete will remain open for all to see. 

+ I have deleted a few people from my flist because A) their journals are dead or B) I feel like we don't have any shared interests anymore and we just don't communicate. Feel free to delete me from your own flist; I will not be offended or take it personally. If you feel like I've made a mistake in deleting you from my flist, please speak up here and I will re-evaluate the situation. ;)

This list is still a work in the progress and I can assure you that I haven't used some of these brushes/textures in a long time. Still, someone might find something they like and I provided the resources here so you can check them out if necessary. Really, I just wanted to unclutter my profile page where all this stuff was currently placed. :)

→ I wish I could give you a reason for this picspam, but there is none. The thing is sometimes I really like celebrities (yes, there are some gals in here too!) with light colored eyes (typically blue or green). Like really. Like I can lose entire concentration because I'm too busy getting lost in their eyes. So there ya go.

5 favorite themes/things from my 5 favorite shows/movies of 2009

I. «THE FALL» Okay, so I know this movie was technically watched in 2008, but I still love it lots.
THE FALL - spoilers for most of the film )
 
 
 


II. «FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS» You guys must've seen this one coming, right? :)

IV. «LOST» It's not my favorite of all time anymore, but I still do watch it regularly.
LOST - spoilers for all of season 5 )




V. «SUPERNATURAL» I kind of feel like I should make an entire picspam devoted to this season of Supernatural. It's been outstanding!
SUPERNATURAL - spoilers for all of season 4 (!!!) )

Last day of finals - woot!!! So glad to be done for the semester. But now I seriously have to find a job/paid internship. :(

Now I'm off to watch Dollhouse's season finale and I leave you the following:

• Snagged from [info]phoenix39 ---
♦♦♦ Go to my usericons page. Take a look around. Pick an icon and I will write a drabble (or fic) inspired by it. Repeat as necessary.


and

• Snagged from [info]married_n_mich  ---
♦♦♦Every person on your FList gets to request a drabble from you.

Post all fandoms you're willing to write for. Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want, unless the author has previously mentioned that they will not write it. They comment with what they want, and you write drabbles and post it in your LiveJournal.

Rules
1. The author can choose three relationships and three story arcs they will not write, per fandom.
2. The author can set what rating levels they're willing to write for.
3. The drabbles can be no longer than 100 words.


I think most of you know my fandoms, but I guess I'll list them. I'm comfortable writing for:
Supernatural (no Wincest)
Lost (there's not a lot of characters I'll write for here, but I think most of you will be able to guess)
Pushing Daisies
Dead Like Me
Buffy (maybe, though my memory's really shaky; no sexual Spike/Buffy - platonic okay.)
Angel (no sexual Angel/Cordy - platonic okay.)
Dollhouse (possibly)
The Fall (why not! I'll try)

I probably won't do anything p0rn-ish, but anything else you'd like to ask for, go ahead.

(First day on my summer vacation, and I'm already looking for something productive to do! LOL)
