My inner-shipper prayers have been answered in the form of CorelDraw 9, and lots of homework avoiding time put to good use. So I will be spending the next few days or so fine-tuning my icon making abilities, and making lots of icons along the way.

One of the trees from the next door neighbour's house got devoured by caterpillars overnight. And now they're everywhere. The rubbish bins are covered with the little black bugs, and it's impossible to avoid them when you're just walking. I think I squished a couple when I came home from school.

Coke does not help when you're thirsty. At all.

ETA: Fandom Character meme.

1. The character you first fell in love with:
Beast, from the original X-Men cartoons. I remember watching it on every Saturday morning when I was little, and thinking, 'wow, this blue dude is so cool.'

2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now:
Polaris. I think I started to like just a tiny bit since she went all crazy like on Genosha, then I got 'assigned' Lorna in an RP, so I had an excuse to do some research and read some backstories, which made me like her more.

3. The character everyone else loves that you don't:
Sage. She just... annoys me. A lot. She was probably the only X-Treme X-(wo)Man that I didn't like.

4. The character you love that everyone else hates:
I dunno. Juggernaut?

5. The character you used to love but don't any longer:
Storm and Iceman. I used to think that they were both fantastic. Now it's just a little iffy.


1. The character you first fell in love with:
Gred and Forge Weasley. They were the original, and the best. Still are. Long live the Weasley Twins!

2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now:
Neville Longbottom. I adore him. The scene at St. Mungo's in OotP nearly made me cry.

3. The character everyone else loves that you don't:
Sirius Black. There was a time when, right after the fifth book, I was mourning him more than I normally would have. But then I realised that I had no reason to do so, because I've never been too fond of the Maurauder.

4. The character you love that everyone else hates:
Erm... Viktor Krum? Is he hated? 'Cause I like him.

5. The character you used to love but don't any longer:
I still love them all.


1. The character you first fell in love with:
Legolas. Is that incredibly shallow of me? Probably.

2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now:
Faramir. RotK was the one that did it for me. And Pippin's song further drove home the point.

3. The character everyone else loves that you don't:
Eowyn. It's not like I dislike her or anything, it's just that I don't like her as much as most other people do.

4. The character you love that everyone else hates:
Boromir? No, everyone loves Boromir. Gimli? No, everyone loves him too. Um.

5. The character you used to love but don't any longer:
Sam. There was too much Frodo/Sam vibes going on that it completely ruined my impression of him.


1. The character you first fell in love with:
Xander. It has always been Xander, and it always will be.

2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now:
Cordy, Anya and Darla. They are all kick ass, and I especially liked Cordy in the early days when she wasn't part of the Scooby Gang yet.

And the two watchers- Giles and Wesley, to a lesser degree.

3. The character everyone else loves that you don't:
Tara. She was sometimes funny, and Willow liked her and all, but she seemed far too nervous most of the time. Like before, I don't dislike her, I just don't like her as much. Okay, you can start to pelt the rotten tomatoes at me now.

4. The character you love that everyone else hates:
Glory. Man, she was twisted.

5. The character you used to love but don't any longer:
Angel. He was fantastic, and I loved him so much. But then it cooled down a little.
