MacDonald Hall

Long time no post. Sorry! I'm still alive though. Yep, so I haven't posted in over a year and THIS is what I chose to post.

"How can you think of food at a time like this? This is the darkest hour in the history of MacDonald Hall! Our world is crumbling around us!"

Such is the characteristic speech of Bruno Walton. The Bruno & Boots/MacDonald Hall series by Gordon Korman is, quite possibly, my favorite books of all time ever and ever. They are sadly out of print but if you can somehow get your hands on one, or an ebook, you should try them.

Josh Hartnett

Fri, 07 Mar 2008 12:12:23 GMT

Back when I was in middle school, my best friends and I (who I still kept in touch with) thought that Josh Hartnettt was THE COOLEST THING IN THE WORLD. He definitely was one of my first celebrity crushes ever. When my friends and I (and probably a multitude of other prepubescent girls around the world) were crushing on him, I found this magazine article he was in, "21 Hottest Stars Under 21." Now I'm about to graduate college, and Josh is nearing 30. But guess what. Even though he may not have had what I'd call an illustrious movie career, what with Pearl Harbor, and 40 Days and 40 Nights... he's still great.

LOYALTY, MAN.

Y the Last Man manip

Wed, 20 Feb 2008 09:56:39 GMT

Another Y the Last Man manip, not because I thought this was actually a good idea, but mostly just because I felt compelled to make it. Not that that statement made much sense, either.

Comic reference: Click to view larger

yeah anyway.

Y the Last Man posters

Tue, 29 Jan 2008 02:55:40 GMT

Because I can't be bothered making a separate journal for other kinds of fanworks, I've long abandoned this being just an icon journal. This is kind of a place for me to dump fan-related creative works type things, so here are a bunch of posters that I made out of manips, to post to fanposters.

I've decided that nothing would make me happier than seeing Zachary Levi (of "Chuck") play Yorick, of Y: The Last Man.

Poster 1

Inspired by:

Poster 2

Inspired by:

Poster 3

So, I'm not exactly inclined to pair these two as Yorick and Beth just because they're in Chuck together, but because they were in that candid-looking picture she's holding, it was just easy. And then I saw that picture of her looking sad and it reminded me of:

There you have it. I'd cast someone else as Beth though. *shrug*

Honestly though? I am SO for Zachary Levi as Yorick. Because, come on:

He's cute and awkward
He constantly needs girls to protect him
He's already perfected the girly scream
AWKWARD. If one were to talk to Chuck Bartowski about having sex, can't you just picture him replying, "First of all, I wouldn't be on top. I have very poor upper-body strength." (Direct quote from Yorick, yes.) And yes. Yes I can picture it. Perhaps you guys can't. I can.
I don't know. He can dye his hair if he wants to, but I really, really like him for the role now. Okay. I know Brian K. Vaughan himself wanted Topher Grace, and who am I to argue with BKV, right? But I just can't see it.

Okay, so... enjoy my first attempt at fan posters. *shrug again*

Shia LaBeouf & Ricky Ullman

Mon, 06 Aug 2007 10:09:24 GMT

Shia LaBeouf & Ricky Ullman icons, how I love them in their Dodgers gear! I am still an Angels fan, don't get me wrong! But I am probably one of very, very few southern California residents who actually cares about baseball and doesn't feel shame in supporting both teams... The Angels have my heart (I feel a fair bit of guilt posting these icons), but I also love the Dodgers.

And so, I have a bunch of icons of my favorite little Disney Channel "lonely Jews on Christmas" in Dodgers gear... though not all of the icons are of Dodgers stuff!

26 icons total, some of them are variations.

+ Having no luck with the ladies? Friend franken_stein for an immediate boost to your performance in bed! Impress the girls! You will thank us later!
+ So, 23-24 are a quote from a random Phil of the Future episode I managed to catch. I can't really... bear that show. I need to watch it late nights, when I'm too tired for anything smarter.
+ I hesitate to point out the similarities between 11 & 18 for fear of insulting your intelligence.

(Also, feel free to ignore this entire next paragraph.)

And yes, the fact that I made these icons means I have an IMMENSE HUGE CRUSH on Ricky/Raviv/whatever Ullman... but this does not mean that I've yet forgiven him for his stint with the Webee Boys. Not that I care so much about him no longer being a goody little Disney boy. I could turn a blind eye to the drinking, cursing, smoking, humping of inanimate objects, and whatever else he feels would shed his goody-goody Disney image the fastest. But the music... the OUTFITS... the forced adopted gangsta speech! It goes without saying that I don't like their music. But I can't even figure out what makes it music! I can't do this, Ricky/Raviv/Flex Masta. I am so torn between wishing you were free from the sadly unfunny Phil of the Future and wishing you were back on it, sans Webee Boys.

I hold firm to my belief that the Webee Boys are putting in more effort than it's worth for it to be a joke or a parody. If it really is just a huge joke, then, let me say: I only wish I had that kind of time.

I'm kinda done now. Sorry, you guys :(

Twilight/New Moon fanmix

Sat, 28 Jul 2007 13:17:11 GMT

This is a fanmix for Twilight and New Moon, mostly centered around Bella and Edward, but with a little bit of Jacob thrown in too. I used Gaspard Ulliel for Edward and Emily Browning for Bella... because just because.

Sugarcult - Hate Every Beautiful Day
Everything's feeling unclear / I wish it was raining / Cause I hate every beautiful day

WHY:
"Is it normal for the... Cullens... to be out of school a lot?" I failed miserably in my attempt to sound nonchalant.

"Yes, when the weather is good they go backpacking all the time - even the doctor. They're all real outdoorsy." - Twilight, p. 155

"There's a reason we chose the Olympic Peninsula, one of the most sunless places in the world. It's nice to be able to go outside in the day." - Twilight, p. 291.

Even though Bella hates the rain, she's always anticipating seeing Edward in school, and you can really feel her disappointment when it's sunny out, and he's not there.
Stereophonics - Superman
You don't know what it's been like / Meeting someone like you

WHY:
"Kryptonite doesn't bother me either," he chuckled. - Twilight, p. 92

Edward has such an air of mystery about him when Bella first met him. I feel like this song, especially the beginning, sounds a little mysterious and chorus could be from either of their perspectives.
The Cars - Drive
Who's gonna drive you home tonight? / Who's gonna pick you up / When you fall?

WHY:
"Get in," a furious voice commanded.

It was amazing how instantaneously the choking fear vanished, amazing how suddenly the feeling of security washed over me... as soon as I heard his voice. I jumped into the seat, slamming the door shut behind me. - Twilight, p. 162

He could drive well, when he kept the speed reasonable, I had to admit. Like so many things, it seemed to be effortless to him. - Twilight, p. 286

Who else but Edward is going to protect Bella, take her in his stupid, shiny Volvo, and take care of her? This song is in the point of view of someone who is totally in control, which I relate to the second quote.
The Hush Sound - You Are The Moon
Shadows all around you as you surface from the dark / Emerging from the gentle grip of night's unfolding arms / Darkness, darkness everywhere, do you feel all alone? ... You don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear / It floods the sky and blurs the darkness like a chandelier

WHY:
...amazed, yet again, by how graceful he was. I probably should have been used to it by now - but I wasn't. I had a feeling Edward wasn't the kind of person anyone got used to. - Twilight, p. 178

All of the nighttime references in this song make me think of Edward. It also really reminds me of him because the song talks so much about beauty, and almost makes it sound like the person they are talking about is unaware of their own beauty:

"Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night... And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty..." ... I wanted to believe him, but this was</i> my life without him that he was describing, not the other way around. - New Moon, p. 514
The Whitlams - Breathing You In
I'm awake / You sleep on and on ... I'm breathing you in / Don't get up, I'm in heaven ... Breathing in my, my sleepy girl

WHY:
"I come here almost every night." - Twilight, p. 293

Edward hadn't moved a fraction of an inch, a carving of Adonis perched on my faded quilt... He bent his face slowly to mine, laying his cool cheek against my skin. I held perfectly still.

"Mmmmmm...," he breathed. Twilight, p. 299

Just a soft, sweet song for when Edward watches over Bella as she sleeps.
Barenaked Ladies - Sound Of Your Voice
The moon is full but there is an incompleteness / The days are beautiful but I feel a bitter sweetness / If I had a wish, or even a choice / I'd wake up to the sound of your voice / How I miss waking up to the sound of your voice

WHY:
It was a furious voice, a familiar voice, a beautiful voice - soft like velvet even though it was irate. It was his voice... and I was surprised the sound of it did not knock me to my knees..." - New Moon, p. 111

The very first line of the song reminds me so much of New Moon. Jacob, referenced by the full moon, is there for her, but she still feels an incompleteness, and wishes for Edward. In New Moon, there was so much talk about the sound of Edward's voice, too, which is why I think this song is so great for the book.
Stereophonics - Since I Told You It's Over
Black and blue from the wind and the rain / Said I'm sorry for the lies and the pain / I never ever meant to make you cry / If I could take you back, you know, I would / I wanna burn up and die ... My head is filled with lies I told ... It was me turning back, I left you freezing outside

WHY:
It's so melancholy, and there is an emptiness in the song from not using too many instruments. I can definitely hear this song as I think about Edward's sadness and loneliness over leaving Bella. I also really like the rain reference, and I thought the line "left you freezing outside" was so perfect.

Finally, I tripped over something - it was black now... - and I stayed down. I rolled onto my side, so that I could breathe, and curled up on the wet bracken... Was it always so dark here at night? - New Moon, p. 74
Trading Yesterday - One Day
If I could see beyond the here and now / If you could hear me calling you somehow / If I could know that love is reaching out

WHY:
Being reckless was paying off better than I'd thought. Forget cheating. Maybe I"d found a way to generate the hallucinations - that was much more important. - New Moon, 185

"I think," I said slowly, "I'm not sure, but I wonder... I think maybe I knew it the whole time... Some part of me, my subconscious maybe, never stopped believing that you still cared whether I lived or died. That's probably why I was hearing the voices... And, well, I wonder if the reason I could hear you so clearly was because, underneath it all, I always knew that you hadn't stopped loving me." - New Moon, p. 525-526

The way that Bella searches for ways to hear Edward's voice is almost like she is trying to communicate with him, and calling out to him.
Our Lady Peace - Made of Steel
I can be anything that you want me to be / A punching bag, a piece of string, oh / That reminds you not to think ... Well I’m not made of steel / I’m not made of steel / But your secrets safe with me

WHY:
"How did you kill him? He was so strong, so hard, like marble..."

He sat down next to me and put one big arm around me comfortingly. "It's what we're made for, Bells. We're strong, too. I wish you would have told me that you were so afraid. You didn't need to be." - New Moon, p. 311

I always feel like Jacob wonders if he's not good enough for Bella, being that she was in love with a vampire. He's not made of steel like the lyrics say, but on one hand he still feels like he could be enough for her if she would be with him. He was the one she talked to and confided in, and was there for her especially to help her not having to think about Edward (the first lines of the song) and he knows he could be more, too. And even though he disapproves of Edward, he'll still keep her secret.
Anberlin - The Promise
If you need a friend, don't look to a stranger / You know in the end / I'll always be there ... But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me / I promise, I promise you I will

WHY:
"You like me, right?" ... "But don't get mad at me for hanging around, okay?" Jacob patted the back of my hand. "Because I'm not giving up. I've got loads of time." - New Moon, p. 212-213

"You promised," I reminded him desperately. "Still friends, right?"

Jacob shook his head slowly, and the lump in my throat nearly strangled me.

"You know how hard I've tried to keep that promise, but... I can't see how to keep trying. Not now..." He struggled to keep his hard mask in place, but it wavered, and then disappeared. "Miss you," he mouthed. One of his hands reached toward me, his fingers outstretched, like he wished they were long enough to cross the distance between us. - New Moon

I immediately thought of this song when I was reading about Jacob's feelings for Bella.
Black Lab - Lonely Boy
I could be the one / I could make it up to you / Take me back / I'm the lonely boy who loves you

WHY:
"I didn't want to do it - it felt like it would kill me to do it - but I knew that if I couldn't convince you that I didn't love you anymore, it would just take you that much longer to get on with your life. I hoped that, if you thought I'd moved on, so would you." - New Moon, p. 509

"I lied, and I'm so sorry - sorry because I hurt you, sorry because it was a worthless effort. Sorry that I couldn't protect you from what I am. I lied to save you, and it didn't work. I'm sorry." - New Moon, p. 510

From Edward's perspective, when he's explaining to Bella why he left, and that he still loves her.
Copeland - Choose the One Who Loves You More
Rain, rain, rain on my mind / I've got a secret life ... When they come knocking on your heart's door / Choose the one who loves you more / And when you've found something to die for

WHY:
I remembered wishing that Jacob were my brother. I realized now that all I really wanted was a claim on him... I'd have to explain it right, so that he'd know I wasn't settling, that he was much too good for me. He already knew I was broken, that part wouldn't surprise him... Would it be so wrong to try to make Jacob happy? Even if the love I felt for him was no more than a weak echo of what I was capable of, even if my heart was far away, wandering and grieving after my fickle Romeo, would it be so very wrong?" - New Moon, p. 375

A fair bit of New Moon talks about Bella being faced with the choice between Edward and Jacob. Of course, in the end, we know she really loves Edward, and that was never actually fickle about his love for her.
Umbrellas - Vampires
Now they're back at my throat and they're thirsty / I haven't proved anything until I've proved them right / This apple in my hand / I just took one bite

WHY:
"And so, now, this involves you all. I'm sorry about that." I looked at each one of their beautiful faces, saving the most beautiful for last... "But, if you don't want me, then I'm not going to force myself on you..." - New Moon, p. 530-531

Dazed and disoriented, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm - into the fevered eyes of the six suddenly ravenous vampires. - New Moon, p. 29

Besides the obvious title, I like a few of the lyrics, relating them to the Cullens. The mention of the apple reminds me of the cover of Twilight and Bella's choices. She decides she wants to become a vampire. But at the same time, she kind of feels like she might have to prove herself to Edward's family. The song also reminds me of the beginning of New Moon, when the vampires are tempted by her blood.
Black Lab - Without You
No matter where I go or what I do / I’ll always be in love with you ... Said that I would jump a mile to my death / If you should ever leave / You promised that you’d always be with me /Are your black eyes turning blue?

WHY:
She eyed me dubiously. "Are you saying you didn't jump off a cliff?"

"No, but..." I grimaced. "It was for recreational purposes only." - New Moon, p. 385

Well, Bella hadn't been trying to kill herself, but she probably still wouldn't have been in that state of mind if she wasn't without Edward.

If only that line was "Are your black eyes turning gold?"
Death Cab for Cutie - I Will Follow You Into the Dark
Love of mine, some day you will die / But I'll be close behind ... If there's no one beside you / When your soul embarks / Then I'll follow you into the dark

WHY:
"I don't think he ever planned to outlive you by long," Alice said quietly. - New Moon, p. 418

"Bella, I can't live in a world where you don't exist." - New Moon, p. 509

"You do realize that I'll die eventually, right?" I demanded.

He'd thought about this part, too. "I'll follow after as soon as I can." - New Moon, p. 519

So I'm pretty much one of the very few people, I'm sure, who thinks it's totally cracked out of Edward to feel this way. But oh well, whatever floats his boat.
Athlete - Half Light
And all that I've seen means nothing to me without you / So when I see you next we'll make the most of it / Tell the sun to start moving again / The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips / And I'll take you there with me

WHY:
"When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything." - New Moon, p. 514

But, now that Edward is back, he and Bella are ready to start anew.
Travis - Under the Moonlight
As the dream nears the end / And summer lovers pass the time / Holding on to what they can't keep

WHY:
"So ready for this to be the end," he murmured, almost to himself, "for this to be the twilight of your life, though your life has barely started." - Twilight, p. 497
It reminds me of the end of Twilight, as the school year was coming to an end and Bella and Edward were basically holding on to something fleeting. Things would be changing very soon for them, but for that moment they were together.
Deftones - Drive (The Cars Cover) *bonus
You can't go on / thinking that nothing's wrong / Who's gonna drive you home / Tonight?

WHY:
I absolutely love this cover (I tend to like Deftones' covers!) because I think it's a really well done take on the original. Although a lot of people usually prefer originals, I included this as a bonus track because it does sound more haunting than the original, and a little more fitting for the mood in Twilight.

I really hope you enjoyed this fanmix! It took forever, but I was hoping that all of the book quotes would make the fanmix more... relatable... to the books.

South Park

Thu, 19 Jul 2007 02:14:10 GMT

This show has changed my life. It has changed my life, I tell you.

I don't know this icon set makes it painfully obvious or just slightly obvious who my favorite character is, but yeah, you can go ahead and take a stab at it :D It should be a easy guess.

24 South Park icons, 8 of which are quote icons.

Examples:
08. 13. 24.

01. 02. 03.

04. 05. 06.

07. 08. 09.

10. 11. 12.

13. 14. 15.

16. 17. 18.

19. 20. 21.

22. 23. 24.

Traveler

Mon, 02 Jul 2007 06:38:02 GMT

Finally caught up on the new show Traveler! So, here are 12 Traveler icons, mostly Aaron Stanford because he is cute and short. These icons are in no order whatsoever and are up to the current episode (6).

A note, before I move on any further: this icon batch is dedicated to hazy_crazy for fueling the craziness of the "customer testimonial." Awesome!

Examples:
02. 06. 10.

01. 02. 03.

04. 05. 06.

07. 08. 09.

10. 11. 12.

24 - up to season 6

Mon, 18 Jun 2007 08:20:32 GMT

Fifteen 24 icons. Took me forever to finally post these. Some of these are really old. They go up to the most recent season 6, so, I guess they might be spoilery.

Examples:
01. 04. 14.

01. 02. 03.

04. 05. 06.

07. 08. 09.

Stereophonics - Kelly Jones

Wed, 13 Jun 2007 06:32:14 GMT

I made some icons that will not be received by a wide audience. In other words, icons no one wants.

12 icons of Kelly Jones from Stereophonics. It's not even the whole band. Sorry. :( Yup. Just Kelly. *snort* I've said it before, but I must reiterate: that's a woman's name. *snicker* Kelly. Amazing voice, great hair, awful teeth. Pretty, albeit very short... I just realized something. He's like... David Eckstein/Chone Figgins-sized. O___o

Examples:
02. 03. 09.

01. 02. 03.

04. 05. 06.

07. 08. 09.

10. 11. 12.

Also, I was wondering something: Way back awhile ago, I saw a picture that a fan had posted somewhere on LJ, when she met Stereophonics. I know this is going to be a very vague description, but I can't remember anymore who or where it was... I think that the fan saw the band outside of a radio station or something? I THINK Kelly was wearing yellow. There were at least two pictures posted. And I just was curious about finding it again because I remember Kelly's hair just looked totally crazy (it was sort of faux-hawk-ish and swept up) and if this is you or know where I can find the pictures... give me a shout please, I would appreciate it :) Thanks!

Heroes/South Park fanvid

Mon, 28 May 2007 00:07:21 GMT

I made my first, and most likely last, fanvid: Heroes meets South Park. Peter Petrelli attempts to stop Sylar's most nefarious scheme yet.

No copyright infringement intended. Everything used belongs to their respective creators and any resemblances you may find to actual people, living or dead, shows you have strange friends.

Spoilers: Contains scenes from the latest Heroes episodes, so be warned if you're particular about spoilers! No audio though, so if you don't care, or if you've seen all the episodes, please check this out for me!

Notes: This came from a post I made in my journal awhile back, here (which I haven't unlocked yet so don't worry if you can't see it).

This is my very first fanvid, and I wasn't exactly going for perfection. I just wanted to amuse myself, so yes, I know that it's all choppy and whatnot. Oh well. Hopefully, it made someone laugh, and that was pretty much all I was going for.

Animorphs!

Sun, 13 May 2007 08:04:11 GMT

I think I've been waiting to do this for a very, very long time. 33 Animorphs quotes icons. Thirty-three! It's seriously a crapload of quote icons! And I doubt this batch shows even half of my favorite quotes, so... maybe another batch of Animorphs quote icons is likely!

Also note that a couple of them were paraphrased so that it'd fit on an icon; otherwise they should be the actual quotes.

Examples:
19. 28. 33.

01. 02. 03.

04. 05. 06.

07. 08. 09.

10. 11. 12.

13. 14. 15.

16. 17. 18.

19. 20. 21.

22. 23. 24.

25. 26. 27.

28. 29. 30.

31. 32. 33.

Demetri Martin quotes

Thu, 12 Apr 2007 08:45:13 GMT

Quote/text icons from Demetri Martin. Love that name, Demetri. And he's absolutely endearing, he's a comedian with very deadpan delivery and sometimes very corny jokes. :)

I picked quotes that I think could be funny even taken out of context, so you may enjoy these even if you haven't heard of him or heard his comedy. 21 icons total.

Examples:
06. 12. 21.

01. 02. 03.

04. 05. 06.

Despite Sylar being my favorite, I don't really think I like this as much as I liked my Isaac wallpaper. So you can bet I'm going to be doing another Sylar wallpaper sometime pretty soon.

Enjoy!

Heroes - Isaac wallpaper

Thu, 29 Mar 2007 11:17:33 GMT

Surprise! Bet you guys didn't see this coming. (Neither did I.) Bet you guys were expecting more Zachary Quinto stuff... which is... understandable, since I am working on posting more Zach/Sylar/Adam stuff. Hehe. But actually, you know, I really surprised myself when I made this wallpaper, because Isaac was never one of my favorite Heroes characters! BUT, then, I realized, you know, he is an arteeste, and I generally tend to like those. I also cropped/messed around with the wallpaper for nine icons. So yeah, an Isaac Mendez wallpaper and icons!

I guess there is kind of a spoiler there, for the most recent episode (18, "Parasite"), but I thought the preview would be okay since you can't really see it very well anyway. Unless you look real hard. So don't look really carefully if you don't want to be spoiled.
