Happy Valentine's Day!

I ♥♥♥ this icon. LOLed when I first saw it. Fits me perfectly. In fact, it was so relevant just this afternoon... XD

So on Saturday morning, I went through all the trouble of going through my storage boxes in search of the sole backup CD I brought with me here, confident it would contain the zip of these icon textures, only to very, very sadly discover that it's not in the disc. I was so mad! Of all the icon resources I don't have with me and accessibly stored ( Read more... )

I'll admit that I've had this post's draft for several days now. Posting it before it becomes truly outdated. Almost didn't again tonight. Aargh, the mind! It is so distracted!

My verdict is out on Garbage's latest album Not Your Kind of People and...I like it. It's not their best, but I like it. It gets a little dragging towards the end ( Read more... )

An addendum to my previous post:

When I woke up this morning and laid in bed trying to will myself to get up, it suddenly dawned on me that the reason I found small but still readable and not at all tiny text blurry while I was making these icons is because I've aged a couple of years and I'm older now...

So got myself paid time yesterday after weeks of deliberation, and thus I am reminded of a quote from Paulo Coelho: “If it's still in your mind, it is worth taking the risk.” And this time I paid with my own money. So if it happens I end up not using it and go MIA from Livejournal again, I won't feel as bad and guilty as before ( Read more... )

Ah. Those were the days.

I do miss you sometimes, you know?

Especially the userpics. Oh yes, the userpics...

As I was about to have dinner this past Wednesday night, I remembered it was presidential election time in the US, so I turned the TV on to CNN and immediately found that the official results were already in and Obama won. I called my housemate from the kitchen, told her the news and asked her to come and watch with me, and we were both getting ( Read more... )

Sometime at the beginning of this month, while I was bored, procrastinating and in front of the computer (as in, the usual), I discovered I had banked a number of unfinished and unused layouts months ago...and I discovered these layouts while I was coding yet another one...! <-- Ha ha, such a shocker! XD So I told myself I should go finalize and ( Read more... )
