2011: a picspam

[erethesunrises]

Welcome to my new friends from the End of the Year friending meme - tralfamadore, crashandburn, elegantrenegade, dess_xo, cazzwell, mssekishi. It's lovely to have you here and I hope you enjoy your extended stay! :D

Normally for the end of the year, I just do the memes that are floating around on LJ but this year I decided to change it up and finally do picspammy's end of the year challenge! I hope you all like it

Hey, *waves* thanks for the welcome! (: I'm looking forward to getting to know you in the new year and talking to you. Also, if you're interested, I've got an introduction post set up here which also contains links to everywhere else you can find me on the internet - and in real life for that matter, LOL.

And this is one great picspam (yay for The West Wing). I watched The Ides of March a few days ago and enjoyed it except for their constant need to include "fucking" in their sentences. That was quite annoying after a while, ngl.

I'm very much looking forward to getting to know you as well! I will definitely go check out the intro post as well! :D

Haha, I thought it was an overall solid film. Nothing compared to TWW of course, though.

[badeperle]

I did enjoy it, yes. But their language got on my nerves after a few scenes. LOL

Oh wow, I love this picspam idea! I've been wanting to do a 2011 roundup myself, maybe if I find some time today I'll steal this. <3

Oh my gosh, I loved watching the Women's World Cup but it seriously broke my heart. Oh, team USA. :')

YOU GOT A TATTOO IN ELVISH THAT IS SO. AMAZING. I just love that whole idea, it's very unique and it obviously means a lot to you!

Also, Young Justice, The Hobbit, The Avengers, yes. And you're so lucky you get to study abroad! I always wanted to and never got the chance, so I'm living vicariously through everyone I know who's going. :D I hope you have a lot of fun!!

[erethesunrises]

Go for it! :D And year, the USWNT was pretty much my whole life this summer. I love them to pieces and can't wait to see them at the Olympics.

Thank you so much! I'm hoping to get my second next summer and yeah, they both definitely mean a lot to me so I'm really glad I got my first one and am excited to get my second.

Live vicariously away! I'm a little terrified but mostly excited!

I got so wrapped up in following them and I think I had one giant girl crush on Hope Solo. I am going to lose my mind for them in the Olympics, I'm so pumped! Let's fangirl together when the time comes shall we? :D

Ooh, what are you planning for your second one? I really admire you for going out and getting tattoos because I could never think of anything meaningful enough that I'd want it permanently engraved on my body, and for some reason that makes me kind of sad, haha.

I reckon terror is normal for something like that! I'm hoping to travel once I'm in grad school (there are some really cool conferences in, like, Japan and Dubai my current lab members have gone to!) or maybe after. My grand master plan is to run a research lab overseas someday. 8D

[erethesunrises]

omgosh exactly how I feel about Megan Rapinoe. AND YES LET'S DEFINITELY FANGIRL TOGETHER. :D

My second one is going to be a Disney tattoo. You can read more about it here. But basically it's gonna be a Mickey balloon but instead of a string, the string is gonna be a quote by Walt Disney (It's kind of fun to do the impossible).

That would be fabulous! :D

[la_petite_singe]

Ooooh, this is so fab! XMFC, McFassy, Thor, GoT, Hiddles, Coeur de Pirate...sounds like an excellent year. :D And that pic of you & James is so great. I posted my picspam yesterday, though it's organized much more spazzily. ;)

[erethesunrises]

Yes, I still have yours open in a tab, just need to get the time to really look it over! Thanks bb. <3

[madri]

omgsh that photo of you and the Monsters, Inc. guys ♥

WHAT AN EXCITING YEAR AND NOW YOU ARE GOING TO LONDON WHEN DO YOU SLEEP

[erethesunrises]

♥!

ANSWER: I DON'T. (well. actually. I do quite a lot I like to think. Sleep is good.)

[pennyxblossoms]

The Book Thief is in my to-read list. The Son of Neptune too- but the Percy Jackson books left me exhausted by the excitement (I didn't merely read them, I practically gobbled them down), so I'm keeping the rest of the Rick Riordan books for later :p.

YOU MET JAMES MCAVOY OMG!!!

Brave <3. The Hobbit <3.

[erethesunrises]

Eeeeeeee Heroes of Olympus is so much fun so far! Though it's torture waiting a year between books omg.

I DIIIIIIIIIIID. HIGHLIGHT OF MY LIFE.
