Oh gosh, four hours later than expected and A MILLION WORDS MORE THAN NECESSARY! Honestly, I in no way expect anyone to read my ramblings - a lot of it was mostly for my benefit so I can ~look back~ as I hope to do these every year. If you read then you're crazy,... we'll don't say I didn't warn you. There's a reason my lj name has said "see:

These are FANTASTIC! I'm a new fan of your icons as of yesterday. The one I'm using now (Doctor with Tardis outline) is my favorite so far but I plan on going through all of these posts and taking a bunch!

DAMN, YOU GOT THAT SHIT DONE! WAY TO GO, NIA!!!!!!!!

The June 5 icons are AWESOME! I effin' love the text-only one. It's so perfect and clean, and it's YELLOW!!!!!!!! That first B/W icon of Harry is quite dramatic and fetching, too. Ugh, great contrast in his face.

I remember that first June 28 piece. You posted it at some icontest, and I was like, "Whoa, Nia's really back. I miss her. Hopefully, we will not have any awkward run-ins." FUCK THAT. THANK YOU FOR BEING IN MY LIFE AGAIN, SERIOUSLY. THAT ICON KINDA REMINDS ME OF FINDING YOU AGAIN, SO IT MAKES ME HAPPY. Also, the B/W Fringe icon there? HELLO, GORGEOUS!

ICU, BLUE/YELLOW WHO ICON. YOU AIN'T SLICK. Still mad about the cool text in the JGL icon.

The Alisha icon from Nov. 5 is one of my faves. So simple and elegant and well-lit.

YOU'VE GROWN LIKE AN AMAZON WOMAN THIS YEAR, NIA. WHAT A FUCKIN' JOURNEY! <33333333

fuck yeah man, i wanted to quit/leave it for today but promised gpages and as qt as she is - wouldn't wanna see her bad side so gotterdone!

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YOU OMG :3 Gosh I kinda remember that like it was yesterday but a the same time seems SO FAR AWAY! That icon for creative_elite was the first elite icontest I applied to/got accepted/entered and placed first round! :D I remember itching to participate more around the icon comm because I could vaguely tell there was a ~difference. Then icon secrets came to my life and thennnnnn ONE THING LED TO ANOTHER ;) ♥

THANKS SO MUCH, KIM! I feel like I have too. I just hope I haven't peaked lol
<333333 Excited to see yours whenever you get around to doing it!
