I love you, flist

[aredblush]

This is where I apologise for being a not good, very bad flister. I'm kinda swamped by exams and extra, intensive courses and things that don't require using a computer (so I don't even switch it on) and I'll be MIA for pretty much most of February (my last exams is on the 26th). I'll try to keep up with the Doodle Jar, but some doodles may be posted a day late. If I haven't commented/won't comment on your entries, it's because I have no time to browse my friend page, but know that I love you all and I miss you and you are all amazing ♥

I have an hour-long period of free time (gasp!) right now, so I'm going to cram as much stuff as I can into this post.

- It is my opinion that someone, somewhere, misunderstood what Pete was saying and made a huge mess. There is a difference between "being on a break" and "breaking up". Everyone is doing something on their own, and I much prefer them taking a vacation from each other to them forcing themselves to be together when it's not what they want to do at the moment. I am most happy when everyone is happy.

- Amanda kinda let me down. The collaborations list is pretty awesome, but I don't like the concept it's tied to.

- Blink is coming to Italy. Please observe a moment of UTTER GLEE!

- I love my tutor. She never lets me down and always gives me good news ♥

- "The Night Watch" is amazing! I haven't finished it yet, but it's gorgeous!

- I find these projects absolutely darling.

- I have a to-do list in my art journal two pages long. I am so upset because I'm feeling extremely arty lately but I have no time to dedicate to art&craft right now. The only arty thing I'm doing is the second piece for help-haiti (hi Lee! Don't despair!) and the one for bandomvalentine (because I love my prompt and I refuse to give it up), but the rest will have to wait and I hate it :(

- I don't like finding good music only after the band making said music broke up *wants more The Format*

And now, a meme! I was tagged by reni_days

- List 7 habits/quirks/facts.
- Tag 7 people to do the same.
- Don't tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag 'whoever wants to do it'.

1. I am obsessed with bees and I've been since I was a little kid. I love their shape, and the sound they make and their colours. If something has bees on it, I want it. Wasps, though, scare me more than biscuit dolls.

2. I used to be an altar girl and sing in the local church choir. I am agnostic.

3. I drink coffee from 4 different coffee mugs during the day, in a precise order: a large, chipped, bright yellow one at breakfast; a tiny, fat lipped, white one at 10:30; one with coffee beans printed on the outside after lunch; a narrow, pale yellow mug in the afternoon.

4. I am allergic to mint. We found out when I was 5 and mum massaged Vicks VapoRub on my chest to get rid of a strong cough.

5. The first concert I went to see was a Backstreet Boys one when I was 11, but the band I really wanted to see was Hanson.

6. I love letters and I keep every one I receive (I still have the ones my "boyfriend" from kindergarden gave me and they crack me up everytime I read them). My favourite one, though, is the letter my grandpa Polo wrote me for my 17th birthday (just 9 months before he died) and I've never let anyone read it because it's the one thing about him I don't want to share with anyone else.

7. I went to art school and I've never tried weed.

I tag: xmexandxyoux, pixiebullets, fictionalfaerie, schneestern, wethepainted, _princess_han_, coreopsis.

That picture has killed me with the cuteness. FUZZY BEE! I shall do this meme and one of my things will be bee related. Yes.

I think the FOB Break Up Panic OMG! is completely overblown and was caused by Pete being Pete. I had a moment of OHNOES!!! but then Andy said they had always planned the break to be two or three years long and nothing would be decided until they did all their other stuff first and I relaxed. They'd probably all be better off without people badgering them about it 24/7. Everyone needs to just chill out. Including Pete. *g*

Fuzzy bees FTW!!! There is a whole series of "fuzzy bee" pictures. I might post them someday just for the loltastic face I have in a couple of them :)

Pete and his flair for the dramatic... will he ever change?

Awww, the picture of bb!you is adorable! And don't worry about not being around much. I've had trouble keeping up with my flist lately, and I don't even have the excuse of schoolwork or anything /o\

*should be in bed, but whatever, the night was made for the interweb*
Thank you bb :) Mum found a couple of photo albums from when I was very little (like, 15 days old) and we've been loling over my cranky faces for the past week.
Oh, could it be that you're being an awesome job-hunting girl? How did the last job interview go? Was it ok?

[milenaa.livejournal.com]

I think it went pretty well. Definitely better than the first one because I wasn't quite so nervous and sort of knew what was coming. The lady interviewing me was really nice too.

And while my mom was driving, the HR lady from the last company I had an interview at called to tell me that their decision is being delayed for some internal reasons and they'd call me again in about two weeks \o/ I'd totally written that one off because they hadn't called earlier, but apparently there's still a faint hope :D

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

I am happy for you! You'll see Milly! They'll fight each other over you!

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

I love you, Nasty! Good luck with your exams!!! *hugs*

The whole drama about FOB breaking up makes me roll my eyes a lot because ZOMG, they totally didn't! They're on a break and maybe it will never end but maybe it will! Chill the fuck out, everyone!!! *eyeroll*

I got a note that I got a package and can pick it up at the post office tomorrow and I really hope it's your art for me because I'm super curious and excited and I WANNA SEE IT NOW ZOMG!!! :D

Those 7 habits or whatnot are really interesting! Little bee!Nasty, so cute! BsB! Letter from your grandpa! <3 No weed yay!!!

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

Thank you bb! *hugs*

Right? I don't get where the panic came from... they already told us about this being a long break. I assumed that to mean they'd be doing something different for a longer time than usual but, apparently, few people got it like that.

I am super excited/nervous! I really hope I managed to draw what you wanted *bites lip*. Also, would it bother you if I were to post the picture here? I'd like to, but I won't do it if you'd rather keep it for yourself :)

Bees! BsB Hanson!!! Grandpa ♥ and I don't know, it's strange, but I'm kind of proud that I am living proof that not all art students are stoners. I don't even know how I managed it: all my friends smoked, but I never even got curious about it... I must be stranger than I thought.

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

NASSSTY!!!!! Excuse me while I ignore most of your comment above TO FLAIL ALL OVER YOU BECAUSE OF THE AMAZING ART YOU DREW FOR ME!!! ♥_____♥

It is so ridiculously perfect I don't even have words but I'll try, ok?
I pretty much love everything about the picture. The pretty kitchen! The red wall! The little tiles! The dishes in the open cupboard! All those amazing little details! And OMG, Spencer in his little boxer shorts and with the drum sticks! :D And Brendon on the floor trying to clean up and looking so guilty! *squishes him* The shadow work! The calendar!
And you even got me a freaking frame for it, too! <333

Seriously, I love it so so much - thank you a million times!!! *hugs you so tight*


Also, please go ahead and post the picture in your journal. I am totally thrilled that I got to see this first and in RL but I do want to share. Sharing is caring. *nods*

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

I am so freaking happy that you like it!!!
I really hoped the kitchen would be of your liking (I told you! It's totally sexier than Spencer!) and that frame is just a cheap one from Ikea! I just didn't want for the drawing to get bent in the mail :)

Thank you for bidding on me, bb :D *hugs you just as tight*

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

It is indeed a very sexy kitchen! Although I might argue about the sexier than Spencer part! ;)

Also, Ikea rocks and I love that I can put it right onto my wall as soon as I've found a perfect spot for it. <3

BB!YOU!!! SO CUTEE!! I want to kidnap you and feed you honey all day. LOL.

AND OMG HANSON. They were my first obsession. They were the reason I got in fandom. Sort of. Do you still listen to them? Sometimes I feel that they are so under appreciated cos I still think they are an amazing band. People need to stop thinking of them as the 'mmmbop' boys lol.

I'll do this soon! :)

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

I want to kidnap you and feed you honey all day. I am okay with this plan \o/

HANSONNNNNN! It's been a while since I listened to one of their albums, but everytime one of their songs comes up on tv/radio, I have to turn up the volume and sing along because they are sooo good! I was so mad when people kept calling them a boyband! They play their own instruments! That's proof that they are rockstars, ok?!

[devilswhore-x.livejournal.com]

BB YOU LOOK ADORABLE! \o/

also lol, never tried weed xD

what are biscuit dolls? /stupid

[aredblush.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU!

Ahah, I didn't try weed, but underage drinking was a daily occurence ;)

this is a biscuit doll (http://62.15.226.148/tc/2009/09/28/15140766.jpg). They come alive at night and choke you in your sleep D:
