I can't be arsed to create a new journal for my fan stuff so this entry will just be a quick access for all the graphics in my journal.

( We're So Pretty That We're Coming Back For Series 2 )

I made my resolutions for the year. It includes the usual, cut down on my cussing, exercise more than I do, yadda, yadda, yadda. But some of my plans for 2009 include:

1). Get back to beasting in Photoshop. This year I completely ignored my 2nd baby as I wasn't hit with much inspiration. So this year I plan to make more fanart and stuff in PS. I've written down in my "Book of Ideas" all the things that I want to get done and how to do it.

2). Write an Arthur/Gwen fic. Yeah I said I'm no writer, not because I don't have ideas but because its so hard getting the words down on paper. Plus my brain moves faster than my fingers which doesn't help. And it also doesn't help that ideas keep running around in my head and wants to come out.

3). Finish my 2nd original fic and re-edit the first one.

4). Finish up on some fanart that I started and never finished due to it not coming out the way I envision it in my mind. My external HD's are littered with unfinished pieces, from SGA to Merlin.

5). Practice in WMM on how to get better at my video editing. I'd really love to know how to do fanvids, but WMM crashes like no ones business.

6). Cut down on my reading. Reading 5-10 books per week isn't healthy.

I'll keep this post stickied so that when I accomplish each task I'll come back to this post and cheer myself on.

I really don't know how much more of this I can fucking take. Why it is that every time things seem to looking up they just fall apart once again. 2009 has been one hell of a year for me personally and in my family life. The last time I went through this much pain and grief was in 1999.

While I've mostly gotten past the incident of February and things were finally starting to come together, I get a phone call in August that my aunt died. My father's older sister. She was one of the aunts who helped raised me after my mum died and has been a great influence in my life.

Then this morning my phone buzzes again and its my cousin calling to tell me that another family member died, this time one of our cousins was killed in a car crash.

I'm not very close to my father, but I'm extremely close to the paternal side of my extended family so news like this hits me hard. The family hasn't even had time to comes to terms with my aunts death in August and here we are once again having to bury a child, a son, a husband, a father, a cousin and a friend. Jesus I can't even imagine what his wife must be going through right now, not to mention the poor kids.

It is said that God never gives us more than we can handle, then when is he going to cut us a break. My faith is really being tested right now.

My stance when things go wrong is to always pretend life is all daisies and butterflies, its just the way I deal with things and always have. But with so many upheavals in the last few months I've finally reached my breaking point.

Is back with a vengeance. LOVE my little show with its vaguely mythical properties and cheese-tastic goodness.

I've already started on the series 2 mood theme, if the series 2 premiere episode is anything to go by I'll be having a hard time choosing the final scenes for each mood. This mood theme will include stuff from all 13 episodes as well as the BTS which aired right after. I hope BBC does this "confidential" type stuff after each episode but I highly doubt it. This special was probably just a one off.

Let me get this straight EL-JAY, you want to charge me $15 just to change my username? Are you frakkin serious?

Ya'll do realize that we're in a recession? A girl ain't got money to be throwing away like that, especially since I have to renew my paid account status in a few days.



EPIC FAIL EL-JAY, EPIC FAIL.

Was EL-JAY hacked again or are they just having server issues? Its running so slow that I'm getting fed up and just abandoning going to the COMM's. Which sucks for me, because I wanna squee damnit.

We're doing a countdown at camelot_love for the upcoming Merlin series 2, which starts Sept 19th. For my 1st set of favourite scenes I chose from the episode Lancelot which is filled with so much sexy in the form of Arthur Pendragon.





( You Sexy Thing )

Was off today but went in because I had to get a flu shot. Working in healthcare and particularly a hospital it is MANDATORY that we get vaccinated every year with it. Now my left arm hurts like the devil.

I had my Pneumonia vaccine 2 years ago so I didn't have to take that. Thank god, I'm terrified to hell of needles and would avoid them unless it was absolutely necessary.

In Oct I'll have to get the H1N1 aka Swine Flu Vaccine. Once again, its MANDATORY.

Redid my journal layout last night. Wonderful thanks to sophielou21 for my gorgeous header. I absolutely adore it.

Redid my sidebar as well, it now features most of my ships and my tags. Can't seem to find a "decent" image of Paris/Torres from Voyager to add to the mix.

The only downside is that I can't see my mood theme unless I click on the entry. Don't know what that is about. I checked the specs and the code writer didn't say anything about disabling mood theme images.

What movie did you see as a child/adult that still scares the bejesus out of you?


---For me it would have to be Stephen King's IT. I saw that movie when I was 13 and to this day it still scares the crap outta me. Then again everything Stephen King scares the hell outta me. Because of it too, I have no freaking use for clowns.
