MEME: Choose up to four (or less) actors/actresses and put their names in a comment. I’ll put my music player on shuffle and whatever song pops up, I’ll create a graphic and a film synopsis for it.

Stole this from starrylizard  a long time ago (and I feel incredibly guilty because I still haven't read her fics), but:

Sometimes it's ok to pimp yourself out. Post a list of your top five fic-favorites you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then tag five other people to do the same.

( with the monsters that talk, monsters that walk the earth )

I tag:
Well, this is a predicament, because I don't think too many of you folks are fanfic writers! Hmm, okay...
ageless_aislynn , mistojen , married_n_mich , xxrachiefishxx , and antigonesgift .

...well, it goes on and on, my friends.

Don't worry, I'll stop there so you won't have Lambchops and Charliehorse running through your head all day. :)

Anyway, the reason for that brief singing session, was because I've done this meme a couple of times before, but for some reason, I always go back to it when I'm tagged. It's so fun! :D

1. Open your music collection and set the songs to shuffle/random.
2. Take the first 30 and write one line from each.
3. As people guess the songs, strike them.
4. Tag up to five others to do this.

( But I think I like it when you instant message me with a promise... )

My mild case of CRACK for the day...

For Supernatural fans (with Lost and Buffy references!):

We all know that the show can't continue with only one brother left. Thusly, Dean's deal cannot come due (or if it does, there needs to be something that can bring him back from hell.)

Theory #1:

Dean finds immortal life through eyeliner. Trufax.




Theory #2:

Dean is saved through the power of porn. Trufax.



*C'mon. You all just know I'm right. :D*

Also, this teaches us that it never a bad thing when you watch too much TV. You'll all owe me money when Theory #1 or Theory #2 comes to pass! Heehee!

And now I have to read about mythology. Really not as fun as one would hope. :( 

The subject title is a play off of a lyric from my first song choice where the real lyric is "I've got the sun in my eyes." Iz so clever! :D

Yes, I did this one already, but I was tagged by popcornleaderand I'm procrastinating!:

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now, shaping your spring. Post these instructions in your LJ along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what they're listening to.

(Psst. 'Cause I'm cool, you also get SPN recs or regular Youtube links to these songs...) :D

1. Butterfly Effect - Gone (Vid: angsty AU vid showing Sam's life post-Dean's death. Just guh!)
2. Smile Empty Soul - This is War (Vid: Ensemble. Heartbreaking. Made by mistojen)
3. Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing (Vid: Random picture of some random girl. Whatever, it has the full song.)
4. Ingrid Michaelson - The Way I Am (Vid: Jensen & Jared schmoop. It's just so cute. I also love how the pictures were given motion.)
5. Fightstar - To Sleep (Vid: Experimental style? Lots of beautiful voiceovers to this wonderful short instrumental piece! Gorgeous!)
6. Landon Pigg - Coffee Shop (Vid: Official music vid. Cute song.)
7. The Devlins - Waiting (Vid: Ensemble. Thought-provoking and lovely. Made by antigonesgift)

I love how all my songs are either incredibly depressing or incredibly chipper. I must be bi-polar. :) Also, I'm in the process of finding some of this songs myself, but I do have some others already. So ask me if you'd like any, and I'll upload it for you. In fact, the only one I don't have is the first one, which I so desparately want! lol.

Gah. I hate tagging. But okay...

Tagged by brittyone:

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick three 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!

She chose these 3 icons:



1. I haven't used this one in a while (bad Maria!), but it's pretty awesome nonetheless. This lovely icon was made by autumnclarity (who no longer has an LJ, I believe) and features one of my favorite Lost characters, Desmond. If I'm not mistaken, the cap used came from the episode "Flashes Before Your Eyes." The reason I snagged this icon (besides the purty colors, of course) is due to the captioning. I have a T-shirt that features Eeyore saying "I am not amused." (Yes, the donkey from Winnie the Pooh.) And frankly, that T-shirt cracks me up every time because the poor ass (what, that's what donkeys are called!) looks so sad and cynical and I emphatize. Wanted to transfer that same mood onto LJ with this icon! :D

2. Oh, gosh. Well, these are the two stars of Supernatural, as most of you know. I'm pretty sure the scene's from the bloopers. This icon was made by lady_bluefairyand I chose it because it's just so AWW-worthy. Regardless if it's the characters or the actors, those two and their brotherly-love for each other makes me all gooey inside. Yay for character-focused shows! (Kripke - following in the footsteps of teh Joss. Bless! :D)

3. Made by katysam. I selected this icon because A) I love animated icons and B) the clip it's from is hilarious. Jensen Ackles (who plays the older brother on Supernatural and often contributes to the gooey feeling inside my stomach) is on this Australian talk show where he's playing a game entitled "Are You Stupider Than a Fifth-Grader," in which three wrong answers are given as choices and he has to select the one that someone previously and actually believed to be the correct answer! LOL. The questions and choices are absolutely ridiculous and combined with Jensen's utter disdain and bewilderment to them, I fell in love with the clip. When my eyes landed on this beauty with his "OMG?SRLY!?" expression, the cynicism within me got the better of me and I jumped on ganking it. Also, Jensen Ackles conversing with people with Australian accents! C'MON! :D

I just realized I ended every number with :D. I must really love my colon and Ds... lol.

I couldn't do the movie meme, because I don't have many favorite movies. TV shows, on the other hand... :)

These will probably be uber-easy, but oh well. It'll be fun for me to relive great TV moments. (By the way, choosing the quotes to actually put down in my entry was absolute torture because I love them ALL!)

Ganked from super_kc

1. Pick 15 of your favorite TV shows.
2. Go to IMDb.com (or another reliable source - like wikiquote.org!!!!) and find a quote from each show.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the TV show.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions.

Got a few grades for my classes:

All in all, I'm okay, I think.

Exhausted, but okay. 

I wants a cookie. Or a week-long nap...

*looks at her looong list of reading and assignments for next week, not to mention the panic over choosing classes for next semester and a thinking of a life goal*

Probably can only manage for the cookie. Damn!

The meme 

brittyone created, as answered by me in her own LJ's thread:

Five things that make me warm and fuzzy...

( click to discover the amazingly astonishing answers... *eyeroll* )

LOL. Sometimes I wonder if I'm a girl at all. It sucks only having two older brothers. *steals friends' sisters and thusly, those sisters clothes and things* ;)

---

Gah, I have to drop an icon to add a saddened Chuck, Pushing Daisies icon. Which will it be, which will it be???

I think I need to let go of Mason... I love the guy, but, damn, he's up there for a while. I'm gonna let him rest a little bit...

*hates having only 15 userpics* When the hell is LJ going to up the limit of userpics for plus accounts! Grr...

 

I've seen both mistojen and popcornleader do this meme and it sounded fun. Sooo...

1. Open your music collection and set the songs to shuffle/random.
2. Take the first 30 and write one line from each.
3. As people guess the songs, strike them. 

There quite a few artists/bands that are repeated. There are also quite a few songs that no one but hard-core fans will get (sorry)...

Just noticed, I didn't quite follow direction #2. I definitely included more than one line. Whoops... It's okay, I doubt it will affect people's guesses much...

Looking forward to see your answers - Good luck!



My own little twist to the game:

Anyone that gets ten (five - seems my music isn't very popular *blushes*) or more correct (without cheating, of course) can request a graphic from me (preferably icons) and I'll make it for him/her free of charge. lol. Though, they might have to wait a week or so before I can get it to them...

ETA: Hell, even if don't even attempt to answer, you can request an icon of me. I'm feeling generous ... and procrastinating-like (school just started). ;)

(What, I need to get back into the swing of things. What can be better than motivation from others... ;))

Yanked  from ageless_aislynn.

Seven songs I'm into right now, in no particular order.

I provided YouTube links to the songs just because I can... :D Some of the links are fanmade vids, but oh well...

1. Lemon - Stay With Me
2. Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out)
3. Ennio Morricone - Love Theme [from Cinema Paradiso]
4. Tara Maclean - Holy Tears
5. Antonio Banderas - Morena De Mi Corazon
6. Joseph Arthur - In the Sun
7. 30 Seconds to Mars - A Beautiful Lie

Yeah, I get into a lot songs through fandom vids. And what?!

And about 5, I don't know Spanish but that song is just freaking awesome. I loved it the day my brother made me listen to it on his old laptop that he brought home from college!
