I'm currently in the middle of downloading Adobe Premiere Pro to make a great DVD of my trip. I didn't even announce this but I went to New York for a week last week ... it was amaaazing. I have a lot of pictures to upload and post on here, which i'll do in a couple of hours when I have Photoshop downloaded as well lol. Lots and lots of dowloading. I just wanna touch up the pictures a bit.

The trip was one that I had been planning with friends since like November, and we finally got to go last week. We stayed in The Westin hotel for the week which is a block away from Times Square..and of course did all the touristy things. I think it was just that much more amusing being a Canadian in a city that is about the same size as the one I live in, only with 9 940 000 more people living there :)

I'll update with pictures. This is mostly to let you all know i'm still alive and I PROMISE to start updating more. Life is just falling back into place at this point and it's grand.

Also, last words all of you need to see 500 Days of Summer. It was so great.

I'll be back soon for an update!

So i've never posted my art on here before. I figured since I havent been active on this journal at all, it'll be a way to bring a different kind of activity. I do wanna keep up with it, so bare with me during this adjustment period. As for the journal, I don't do new drawings in it everyday, more when I feel inspired which as of lately has been pretty non-existent. I'm trying to go back to my roots of drawing with this because ever since I started painting, I barley draw anymore and it sucks. So, these are my journal pages. Enjoy!

So, as some of you know i'm in a children's literature class at my university. We get to study some great novels, one being Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. We had our second lecture on it today, and today it was more about Media and Culture.

So, I was just surfing the web and bothering the boyfriend when the teacher starts talking about Harry Potter slash. Only about 5 of us put up our hand knowing what it was. She showed the class fanfiction.net, and again, only some of us knew about it. She explained the idea behind it, and how people post their fanfiction, as well as how sometimes they post it on their own blog, or Livejournal. So, I was just amused because I know about the slash on LJ...limited knowledge but knowledge nonetheless.

And then it came to fanfic VIDEOS. She made us call out a popular song to her (Apologize was the most called out one) and then a video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Ws_vdYdLlQ8

My boyfriend has NEVER seen videos like these, so he pretty much found it hilarious. I only found one part fantastic and it's around 2:32 lol. Then, she warned us of the next video that is somewhat offensive and if we didn't want to stay we didn't have to: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Dv4ymap2pAI

So pretty much, what's your opinion about these videos? Besides the fact that some of the videos go overboard.

What a beautiful movie. I gave it a very high rating in my 2008 selection of movie, and was so apleased with it. I am going to get my hands on the book as soon as I can and indulge myself in it's wonderfulness. So, for all of you, here are some icons of Atonement

Some Fight Club icons. This is by far my favorite movie, and I thought it'd commemorate some of my favorite parts from the movie. Enjoy!

I've been really missing my Office episodes, so I decided to go back to season 3 and make some icons. These are of the first three episodes of the season, of just the lovable characters. Very simple in coloring and such!

So with my new obsession with Gossip Girl, and me wanting to start making icons again, here's the best of both worlds!

I totally get they aren't the greatest, but i'm just getting used to all of this!

I just realized how much I miss making icons.
And how much I miss television.

See, I used to be this big TV buff that watched everything and I kindof gave up on that because of just not having any time.
I MISS IT.

I've been watching Gossip Girl a lot and catching up on that, so probably some icons will come soon from that!

Keep your eyes peeled :)

Amazon is my new best friend.
Just thought you should ALL know that.
It's like my safe heroin, costing me a ton of money, but its indulging all my needs....DVD wise.

LOVE IT!!!!!
