Meme I found at koalathebear's journal and found too cute to let it pass.




Your exact moment of the day is always changing, because the sun never sets at exactly the same time. You are the romantic moments just after sunset when it's still light enough to see your way around outside, and the sky is a blend of reds, pinks, purples, and blues. At this time of day, the light has a special way of making even rundown buildings looks like works of art. You're like that, too – you're always finding beauty and magic in unexpected places. Not only will you wish on the first star you see, somewhere inside, you actually expect that wish to come true.

Took it from sunsetsylvia.

( Great! )

Took this from sunsetsylvia because I think it's necessary to hear/read things like these from time to time...

If there are one or more people on your friends list who make your world a better place just because they exist, and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the Internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

I so agree with the text above, so that's why I'm posting it.


Thank you everybody! ;)

Took it from sunsetsylvia ;)

( I've been told more than once that if I keep my mouth shut and don't say a word, I'd really could be Belgian )

I saw them I made them but I didn't post them so, here they are all together.

( *+*+* )

Found this in zed_pm after checking out some nice icons and thought it was funny, so I tried it.

What Ginger Means

G is for Gifted I is for Important N is for Natural G is for Goofy E is for Earnest R is for Responsible

Took it from scottishlass.

I read this at sunsetsylvia's LJ and I gave it a try... I didn't know that of myself O_o

Could it be because I used to watch Prison Break?? :S

Taking it from misseri44, although as she says, this has been around for a bit.

Reply to this post, and I will tell you my favorite icon of yours. Then post this to your own journal using your own favorite icon. Repost it if you want, if not just let me have fun looking through your icons to tell you my favorite(s)

So it's supposed I'm posting this with my favorite icon, which in itself was a really difficult task, believe me!

I love to take a look at people's icons, so this won't be hard... If you feel like telling me which one of my icons is your favorite, that will be a plus! ;)

I saw this at koalathebear's LJ and thought I'd give it a try because I really believe that reducing to 5 the number of my favorite movies is very difficult... and indeed it has been!

To list 10 movies: your 5 Favourites & your 5 Guilty Pleasures.

( to the meme )

Stole it all over my flist ;) Couldn't help it because the results cracked me up, especially the 'four toby stephens' I wish that were true... I would share, promise!

...because it's been a while since I posted a meme and this one looks good. Stole it from syliasyliasylia and koalathebear

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

1. Siboney - Connie Francis (2046 ost)
2. Bohemian Rapsody - Queen
3. Englishman in New York -BaSix
4. Almost Like Being in Love - Rick Riso (Relative Values ost)
5. And Her Mother Came Too - Jeremy Northam (Gosford Park ost)
6. Day O - Harry Belafonte (Beetlejuice ost)
7. Crying At The Discoteque - Alcazar

Most of them are songs I now play a lot because baby ginger seems to like them... above all Siboney and Day O ;) All are in iPod format except 6 and 7 that are mp3.
# 5, I listen to it a lot because I like how Jeremy Northam sings... He plays Ivor Novello in Gosford Park and reading my Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. books, I discovered that Ivor was friends with Doug... That is one of the things that make me a squeeing fangirl ;)
# 4 it's from a Colin Firth movie not very known that I love to bits (because apart from Colin, Stephen Fry has a great part there ;)) I truly recommend the movie and the soundtrack!

You went trick or treating as Paris.
Despair gave you FancyImportedBeer.

You had a rotten time until JohnEdwards killed your parents.

What's Your Trick-or-Treat Haul?
Shiver My Timber--A Pirate RPG

btw, I found it via dianora2.

How curious that Jane Eyre was one of the option I got :P

I first saw this meme at raelala's journal, but seeing it in syliasyliasylia's reminded me I wanted to do it.

1. What is your main cell phone ring-tone?
In one of my cell phones is SMAP's Fly and in the other frogs croaking.

2. What is your default LJ icon?

by me. A default icon matching the layout because I like them that way now.

3. What station is your car radio permanently tuned to?
Any actually. I don't like to listen to the radio while I'm driving. Usually have a SMAP or Blackadder audiobook playing.

4. What is your computer desktop image?

the wallpaper is from TakeMeToParis.com. There are beautiful wallpapers there. Besides I love the sentence in the middle of it. It's true sometimes...

5. Is there something you wear every single day?
Underwear and earrings.

6. I wish I had a tracking device on:
a. mr. ginger when he forgets his cell-phone or forgets to turn it on.
b. packages that take too long to reach me when they shouldn't.

7. What page does your internet browser open with?
Google.co.uk

8. This item never leaves my purse handbag:
I always carry big purses/bags... hmmm, tweezers... Since they save me from having my credit card swallowed at a cash point :S

9. What TV show do you never miss?
Hmm, too many but I think I can live if I miss one episode... however, for example, I couldn't miss one of Spooks!


10. What phrase do you hear yourself repeating too often?
Probably is 'Qué?!' (What?!) or 'Jo!' (kind of complain I can't think of a translation of)... and also 'Qué heavy!' (that doesn't have translation and that is a bad use of the English word heavy)... Indicates that something is too much to believe it, or too surprising, unexcepted, unbelievable (for good or bad, but usually bad!)

( What number are you? )

( How do you comunicate? )

Even after the fact that I still to wait weeks to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2, ( What's your pirate name? )

( How Aquarius are you? )

I'm kind of appaled by the following result... that means I think too much of myself :S or that I'm a narcissist?? :/ ( What sign is your true love? )

( Mood Ring Generator )

I took this from syliasyliasylia who took it from winterspel and she from somebody else...

Rules:

Bold all of the following TV shows which you've ever seen 3 or more episodes of in your lifetime.
Italicize a show if you're positive you've seen every episode of it.
If you want, add up to 3 additional shows (keep the list in alphabetical order).

( I'm ashamed not of the number of them I've watched... but of my inconstancy watching... )

Yesterday I was looking for some tutorial and I visited a lot of LJs so I honestly don't know where I found this meme but it looked cool and I had to give it a try. Besides... after reading what it says I got like... 'nice!' ;)

( what color I am... )

koalathebear posted about Peanuts and Snoopy here and here. She mentions their Chinese names and all that. I've watched an episode in Chinese, and it's pretty funny to watch. I also plan to watch it again before my exams, just for practice.

Anyway, she also post a meme, and I couldn't resist it. The really shocking thing was what I read below the quiz result:
9529 other people got this result. This quiz has been taken 517331 times. 2% of people had this result.

Only 2%!? Isn't that unusual!? Should I feel original and different or weird? :/ Honestly, I am very happy with my result because it's one of my favorite characters!!

( I wasn't going to add a cut, but the result is a bit large... )

After around five days working in my Japanese papers I hand them today! They're done! Forgotten! What's next! (I haven't even watched 'the last-ever' West Wing episode!!! Hopefully tonight I will.

Something unprecedented: I'm took three icons from somebody else (iconzicons Thanks! syliasyliasylia) to use as my userpics... I know, I know, but I'm weird that way and generally, I enjoy making and using my own icons... However, these 3 Star Trek comedy icons were so hilarious and I felt so much like using them (because lately there are moments I feel that way -no LJ related, don't worry!- that I couldn't resist! As mr. ginger has the dvds I may make more myself, although I also want to make icons from cartoons... *sigh* no time lately.

It's so incredibly hot in here!! For the last three days, today included, it feels like it's absolute, awful, summer!!! Around 35ºC during the day... last night we had almost 20ºC!!! Terrible believe me! It's awful when you have to study or write stuff in the computer because the computer makes the room hotter!! Anyway, I think tomorrow it will get back to normal! *sigh of relief*

Last thing for now: koalathebear talked about Pocky (a Japanese snack that is like Mikado) and also posted a meme about it, that I've stolen, btw.

( I'm 'Reverse Pocky' (huh?) )

I've been tagged by catdecember for this 'ten of life's simple pleasures' but not in the other:10 Fictional Characters I wanna... in which I've made a change so it's more 'interesting' for me. Anyway, I've decided to make both of them.
