So,  tattoo is healing nicely. Not complete yet, but it is getting there. I spent 7 hours under the needle on Tuesday and could take... no more. And also, we were tired. I go back on the 8th of November to get the rest of the colour done. I am super excited for it.  As you can see, I still have quite a bit more to colour and please excuse this horrible photo. But really, it's the line work that took up so much of the time.  That alone too about 5 hours. The colour I have done only too around 2 or so.



It is very large. And intense. But I love it. Bev calls me Tony!Boobs. Which I don't feel is inappropriate, really.

Other things?

Our Halloween party is going down on Friday the 28th. We decorated a bit for it this evening. Probably five times tonight we have gone into the kitchen and been like, "what the hell is this all over the --- oh, bloody footprints. Never mind." It's going to be awesome. Or at least that is the big hope. I still have to figure out how the hell to make my skirt. But you know.. I have a week. I'm sure it will work out alright.  Costume plan thus far is to be the crazy black swan from Back Swan.

Also. I am kinda sorta considering jumping in and signing up for Avengers Big Bang over at avengers_bang. I already have like two ideas anyway. Might as well develop them if I can. Or work towards a larger goal. Pretty sure I could bust out a 15000 minimum if I really tried. I should also finish the ones I have started, of course.  My only problem is that I am super nervous writing for comic book fandom. I feel that if I don't know everything about everything, then I suck and am not worthy. And lets not play around here. I don't know everything by even a long shot.

I am not sure whether or not some of you are aware of my deep love for score music. I am weirdly hung up on trailer music... I wouldn't say in-particular, but hey. I have a massive collection of trailer music that I jam to like a weirdo.

My most recent acquisition being the song Prelude by Pusher Music, which is used in the trailer for Transformers 3. A movie I will have you know, I'm sort of on the fence over how much I even care. But you know... the music in the trailer is pretty bad ass. And I now have it, and you should probably have it too!

I've had this chillin on my computer for some time now. I thought I would upload/share it with the class, on the off-chance that anyone actually cares. Or, in case anyone just wants to download some free music.

I don't think I've kept it much of a secret that I'm kind of fangirl-exploding over Voyager. Again. It is also no real secret that I love-love-love Tom Paris & B'Elanna. So, here is the fanmix I made for them! (That I had a lot of fun making graphics for so, prepare for lots of them under the cut!)

So~ wallpapers. I do not make them that often. I am sort of picky about my wallpapers sometimes, in that I like them to be bold and a little bit simple. And also, I really like having a lot of negative space. I also like having nerdy wallpapers. But I do not like wallpapers that are like HELLO I AM AN ANIME WALLPAPER, PLEASE HAVE THIS EXPLOSION OF COLOUR AND CRAZY!!!!!

I dunno. I'm a weirdo.

I also really really like symbols. And Fullmetal Alchemist just so happens to be full of the buggers. I figured that was a pretty easy theme to roll with, so I made a couple real quick! And I figure that there might be one other person out in this world who might get use out of them. So I figured I should probably share.

I didn't draw the art on any of these. It's all just symbols from the series itself, and textures and a bit of text on a few of them. Nothing fancy.

Please enjoy them.

Six years ago today, Oceanic Flight 815 disappeared over the Pacific while on it's journey from Sydney to Los Angeles.  Our hearts go out to the families and friends who had loved ones on the flight. We can only prey that they are all in a better place now and peacefully at rest.

i actually saw this movie the day it came out. and have now seen it three times in theaters. and will probably see it again. i've just been gone for so long, i haven't really had time to fangirl over it properly. so i should probably warn you now that it's likely to come up in the future.

but i now have the soundtrack! and i think you should probably have it too! so, here you go!



i apologize in advance, because you'll notice that it is foolishly not in one neat little package for you. i forgot to snag the two bonus tracks when i made the .zip file, because they were in a different folder. but by the time i realized it, i'd already uploaded the thing! D: so don't forget to grab the bonus tracks additionally. they are not in the .zip file.  and the third one is my own addition to the mix; non, je ne regrette rien is the full version of the french song used in the movie to count down to the 'kick.'

speaking of which, check this interesting thing out about that song and how it relates to the rest of the score.

clever, non?
