Note to self. I want to write about these women in the future. My android decision app chose Shirley this time.

Leia
Penny
Oh dear… someone submitted an ask to see if the pupship playlist was still open and I didn’t see it until just now… X_X
I need to post more songs…
It’s been too long since I wrote stuff… so trying a new exercise.
I have a “word of the day” widget on my phone. I’m going to try to write a daily drabble with them.
… we’ll see how well (and long) that works out… >_>
Oh man.
According to my calendar, it’s my tumblr anniversary!
I shall celebrate by posting this post.
…
Just kidding. Okay. I’ll make sure to post a 30 day OTP thing today.
*marks it on her calendar*
The Music Meme ♪ (original template here)
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Put iTunes or equivalent media player on random.
3. For each song that plays, draw a sketch related to the theme you picked inspired by the song. You have only the time frame of the song: no planning beforehand, you start when it starts, and no lingering afterward; once the song is over, you stop sketching. (No fair skipping songs either; you have to take what comes by chance!)
4. Do 10 of these, then post.
This is the first one I did…
The song selection, man. wtf! So random.
And like… things I have collected but not really listened to… for example, “This Fight”: I had misread it as “flight” and I was like “hmm I wonder why he keeps on signing about fighting… OH WAIT. FFF”
It’s pretty funny. The Pimsleur one I had 30 minutes to draw something (I stopped after 5) and it went straight into the Star Wars one that was about a minute an a half.
To do: Star Wars art bunny. I can’t believe I haven’t thought of it before.

Super Silky Summer Legs
Next time you are feeling down, about to binge, going on a date, or just need to pamper yourself, do this. I just did it and I can not stop rubbing my legs together. It feels like I paid for that over expensive pedicure at the salon.
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 C Sugar (Yup, plain, good-ol’ white sugar)
- 1/2 C Oil (I used olive oil, but you can use any oil, coconut oil, baby oil, canola oil)
- 3 tablespoons Citrus (Lime or lemon)
- 1-2 Razors
- Mix everything together in a bowl.
- Soak your legs in the tub for 5 minutes.
- Shave your legs.
- Rub some of this mixture all over your legs. The sugar will help rub off all dirt and dead skin. Rub, rub. Feels like a mini massage.
- Rinse it all off, shave again. I would use one razor per leg if you have two. You will be rinsing this razor a lot. I was GROSSED out by the amount of dead skin I was “shaving” off. It was insane! Trust me, you’ll see.
- Rub your legs again! Second coat of wax, oh yeah.
- Rinse off! You can use a mild soap to help get some of the oil off.
- Lotion your legs up, and feel the silkiness!
Now this isn’t just geared to ladies…. guys, if you want to get lucky, I suggest you offer to rub your ladies’ feet with this mix too. It feels awesome, and when you get lucky, you will be thanking me that her rough grandma feet aren’t cutting your legs, if ya know what I’m saying… hahaha.
I have silky arm pits too!!
Try it, I swear, You will want everyone to touch your legs.
i just did this and after about 2 or so months of not shaving this is the most incredible thing i have ever done its like my legs arent even legs they’re some sort of ancient fabric made only for powerful pharoahs
i highly suggest this even if you don’t shave use it on your feet or shave your pits or your pubes with it because you will feel like a fucking deity
HOLY SHIT I JUST USED THIS AND???? I FEEL LIKE MY LEGS ARE MADE OF ANGEL WINGS
THIS IS THE BEST THING IF YOU DON’T USE IT YOU’RE CRAZY
Hmm…
(via fantwirls)
Gonna make it of my Pottermore wand…
ETA: Hmm… it’s going to be a lot of glue… >_>
Resolutions for 2013
A couple days ago one of my fb friends was talking about resolutions for the new year. I went back to all my social media things and I couldn’t find ones that I did this year… so I’m not sure if I did any for 2012? Well… if I had made any resolutions I certainly didn’t keep them since I don’t even remember…
ANYWAY
It got me thinking into making some resolutions for 2013. AND TAGGING IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE TO FOSTER ACCOUNTABILITY.
I have two lists. One for fandom-related resolutions and one for “Real Life” resolutions. I’m trying to make most of them “SMART” goals (as suggested by my therapist (and Pinterest >_>)…) and hopefully that will help.
Here are my fandom ones, in no particular order:
- write for more fandoms, other than YGO… definitely finish 1) WC Di/Christie, 3) Mulan sexual identity crisis fic, 3) Glee Asian Camp fic… hopefully before 1/2 way through the year
- write more femslash (and het, I guess) (see above)
- complete my Avengers One Coin project before Iron Man 3 comes out (May 2013)
- finish one of my “longer” puppyshipping WIPs that have been collecting dust (probably raspberry fluff because it’s the furthest along?)… idk when, but before the end of 2013
- watch Doctor Who (>_>)… power-disc on my Friday-off weekends (I will be a fully-fledged Whoovian someday—!)
I also have some “real life” things that I plan to do.
- do something like this… but electronically, by sending an email to myself and collecting it in a folder (the filter’s all set up and everything)… and instead of “whenever” it will be one good thing per day. I think it will help me on my down days…
- continue to take (gummy) vitamins daily ^^v
- go to the gym more (which, at this moment is “not at all” so it shouldn’t be too hard at the beginning)… start with all work Mondays and eventually ratchet up to 3-4 days a week
- write a post in my RL baking blog at least once a month
- make a will and organize my important documents before tax day
- have a short chat in French with one of my francophone coworkers everyday (and Kai? CAN I DRAG YOU INTO THIS, bagofmints?? ^^”)
So… here’s hoping I can do this and it’s not too much—!
I made this so I can put it up on my wall. You fellow writers are welcome to do the same.
LOOK AT HIS DISAPPROVING FACE. WRITE. NOW.
Do I look THAT grumpy? I probably do. But I like the sentiment.
YES
Also, those lights almost look like an asterisk?
