YOU GUYS MY FIRST REVERSEBANG PIECE IS POSTED and you should all click on the link, ignore the art and GO READ THE TRULY AWESOME STORIES THAT WERE WRITTEN FOR IT BECAUSE HOLY SHEEP, YOU GUYS! THEY ARE FREAKING AWESOME! I am completely starry eyed over both of them and I can't stop flailing and beaming and clapping my hands in glee! I have them both open in tabs and I keep hopping from one to the other and joyfully flap my hands like a seal gone postal :DDD The sheer brilliance and imagination of [livejournal.com profile] someidiothasice and [livejournal.com profile] smaragdbird have left me completely stunned and I couldn't be happier. I AM A BIG BALL OF JOY AND GLEE AND IT IS ALL THANKS TO THEM!
Flist, your mission today is to go read their stories and then leave them the highest praises in the comments! Go and spread the love, my mighty flist! ♥

Also also! You should check the other arts and stories that already went up at [livejournal.com profile] i_reversebang because they are all so very awesome! Go go go! :DDD

Ion, [livejournal.com profile] angelgazing is an evil person who earwormed me with Hot In Herre. Quick! Give me another ridiculous song to stop Nelly from setting up shop in my brain! D:

Oh, and speaking of ridiculous songs, I am putting together the silliest mix-cd ever for my sister! She asked for an "All Girls Pop from the late 90's/early '00" mix because she go tired of the "Boybands mix" I made her last year! Tell me who should be on it flist! :D

In order to celebrate my new name (woo! \o/) I bring you happy tunes!

1. Apparently, Adam Young has been making music since forever. Before he became famous as Owl City, he recorded an album under the name of Sky Sailing and he recently announced that these early recordings will be made available soon :D Since An Airplane Carried Me To Bed won't come out for another couple of weeks, why don't you listen to the three tracks that are available now?
Brielle | Tennis Elbow | I Live Alone

2. Did you saw The Like live at Rolling Stones? I ripped the audio!
Release Me | He's Not a Boy | Don't Make a Sound

3. Who wants the exclusive tracks from Gold Motel's Summer House?
Sunshine All Night | Safe In L.A. | Summer House exclusive | Fireworks After Midnight

ETA: Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] trashcancore and [livejournal.com profile] ordinaryink! I wish you both the very best birthday ever!

Ok, I know I shouldn't be here but I missed you guys like crazy!

Flash news: I am tired and I need my days to be at least 36 hours long because I need more time to do everything I have to do. I'm super behind on posting on the doodle jar and also for my [livejournal.com profile] bandomvalentine assignment. I plan to catch up tomorrow morning.

In the meantime,


and also, here's a music meme from [livejournal.com profile] toodelicious (who tagged me last week! I'm sorry it took me so long!)

- pick a band/artist, and answer the questions using titles from their songs.
- tag 5 people from your friends list.
- everyone tagged has to do the same thing.
You know the drill: you want to do it, you do it!

1000 Umbrellas! )



I feel completely out of the loop. Tell me about your exciting lives, flist!
aredblush: (Default)
Today we celebrate Epiphany, which means that la Befana flew on her broomstick yesterday night and filled stockings with candies and sugar charcoal.

Since my broomstick does not fly, I wasn't able to bring sweets to any of you, dear flist. But don't worry! I bring gifts in the form of links and icons! :D?

La Befana vien di notte.... )

Well, that was fun :) It's extremely cold today so I'm off to make myself a cup of tea and then put on some Disney classics while I knit myself this hat :)
aredblush: (P!atD - Headphones)
... BUT WHO CARES? Let's have an early present!



You might know that Miss Greta Salpeter has a new project, Gold Motel. Guess who has a copy of her EP? That's right! ME! And you will, too, if you click on the handy link :)

Gold Motel EP


Please, do take a copy, enjoy the awesome, spread the joy and buy the originals if you like them!

Also also, I have loads of invites for GoogleWave. If you want one, give me your email address and I'll send it to you :)

[livejournal.com profile] seratonation is going on a journey! And she asked for travel songs.

I utterly fail at making mixes, but hey, it's fun :)

Let's go to Candy Mountain, Charlie! )
aredblush: (Disney / Flower says Hi)
Ok, nobody complained for the music dump last week so here, have fun:

The Academy is... - I'm Yours Tonight

Paramore - Brand New Eyes

And my favourite this week, Kings of Convenience - Declaration of Dependence
(How I love this band! "Riot on an Empty Street" was the first album I spent money on :) Ah, the memories...) (Also, if you want their other albums, just tell me and I'll upload them ;])

Oh, hey. You know what's really exciting? MERLIN IS BACK! I've been flailing via e-mail at [livejournal.com profile] toodelicious like a spaz. If you haven't watched the first episode yet, GO WATCH IT NOW! OMG! There's jealous!Merlin! And Gaius must have spoken to the slash dragon! And oh the slashiness! I promise you'll love it to pieces (and then come back here so we can flail all together \o/)

RL is kind of boring. I've watched Bambi twice this past week, and I've been trying to find an .avi file of the second one... Bambi II is the only sequel/midquel that's worth watching. I cry harder with it that with the original. Yes, I know I am a total lamer. No, I am not ashamed. How could I when it has gems like this: )
([livejournal.com profile] devilswhore_x, we need to seriously discuss this au thingie. I just realized that Brendon is not Bambi, he is Faline!)

So, other than Disney-related entertainment, I've done pretty much nothing apart from sketching things for random competitions (not the FOB one, I don't think I could pull it off), poking WASP (now at the glorious total of 4000+ words of unrelated bits and pieces and no end in sight. Ah ah ah. /o\) and playing Tap Tap Revenge on Katiephone (that game is addicting! I scored 100% on ABC \o/).

What about you flist?
aredblush: (Default)
Rec time \o/

1. Mika's new album, "The Boy Who Knew Too Much". I like it even better than his first one. "Blue Eyes" is delightful, "By The Time" has a Imogen Heap feeling to me and that makes me very happy. The way he mixes sad lyrics with upbeat/cheery/sweet music... Really, click on that link up there and take a copy and, if you like it, go buy the CD when it'll come out (Wikipedia tells me on the 18th in Italy, on the 21st in the rest of the world). I know I will :)

2. This essay on drawing by spoonbard over at DeviantArt. Go read it NOW! Go read it even if you think you're not an artist :)

3. "Two Musicians in Search of a Song", posted at [livejournal.com profile] popoffacork. It is pure bliss.
And "Genetic Profile" by [livejournal.com profile] arsenicjade (thanks to [livejournal.com profile] _princess_han_ for the rec ♥). It's a Bandom/CriminalMinds crossover wherein Ryan is Reid's cousin. The way [livejournal.com profile] arsenicjade managed to keep the various characters true and still mix two fandoms that have nothing to do with each other is amazing. Read it!

4. Forget Zorbing. I want to do BASE JUMPING WEARING A WINGSUIT! Who's with me? :D?

P.S. If you want a copy of Fun./Muse album, just click on the link :)

because "Cover Songs Meme" was not as cool

So, [livejournal.com profile] saba1789 and I are cover songs worshippers and decided to make a meme to GET MOAR spread the love :)

Saba managed to keep the linkage under control... Me, not so much.

Cover songs are <3 )

Anyway, while I was browsing my cover songs folder, I came up with a game that I call "From Beatles to Bandom". The aim of this game is to connect the Beatles to someone in Bandom by means of cover songs and without using the obvious Ealeanor Rigby cover by Panic in less than 6 steps (because with Bandom, 6 degrees are too many).

I managed to win twice \o/

one. The Beatles' song "Something In The Way She Moves" has been covered by Radiohead (1), whose song "Creep" has been reworked by Bob Dylan (2), authour of the song "Desolation Row" recently covered by My Chemical Romance (3).

two. Bono and The Edge of U2 covered "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" (1), U2's song "With Or Without You" got covered by Keane (2) whose song "Everybody's Changing" has been reworked by Lily Allen (3) who also covered "Womanizer" by Britney Spears (4), whose song "Baby One More Time" got covered by Panic! (5).

:D?

If you've managed to reach this point without gnawing on your wrist, GOOD JOB! As a prize for your resiliance to my faily spazzing, I'll give you some goodies!

a. The .zip with all the songs mentioned above
b. Across the Universe OST (Complete with "All You Need is Love" that wasn't in the original cd)
c. The link to download "They Just Howl" cd, an Empires' songs cover project
d. The link to the most wonderful site The Covers Project

Ok, your turn to join the fun!
aredblush: (Default)
Hey, I'm late to the party, but I need to squee over here too so:
HOLY SHEEP HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEW PANIC!? AREN'T YOU SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THE NEW ALBUM? ISN'T THE RETURN OF THE ! AMAZING? DON'T YOU WANT TO DANCE AROUND THE ROOM AND THROW YOUR ARMS IN THE AIR AND JUST LAUGH AND SPIN IN CIRCLES UNTIL YOU GET DIZZY?

(You know you've gotten over the Split when you write WASP drabbles about Ryan leaving Greta's household to go with Jon to explore the wild, wide world and you don't feel bad about it)

Ok, now that we got that out of the way, how are you flist? I've been kind of shitty in the comment department lately, but I promise once I finish typing this up I'm going to check the journal filter and comment on everything :)

This reminds me: HELLO NEW FRIENDS! *waves* I... lack an intro post. I never got around to write one because I never know what to tell about myself beside random things that don't make a lot of sense...
For example )

In other news, [livejournal.com profile] bandgirlsbang just put up the list of summaries for artists and mixers. This means that I really need to finish my art assignement for [livejournal.com profile] boxofmagic (looks like I'll spend tomorrow playing with paint :D).
Also, I'm getting an iPhone in three days! You know what this means? It means that I have to find a name for it! I have Bob the iPod and William the laptop, so maybe the iPhone could be female? Go on and tell me nice phone names :)

Firstly, a meme from [livejournal.com profile] toodelicious

Leave me a comment saying merlin/spn ate my brain :P <-- I'm pretty sure tha fandom is changeable, so write the fandom you prefer :)
I'll respond by asking you five questions so i can get to know you better.
Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.

meme! )

Now, I'm sure all of you have heard the dulcet tone of Brendon singing Sublime and Sinatra. I have both files!
To get the Sinatra I had to raid the interweb until I found a downloadable file because the site I usually use (file2hd.com) didn't like Pete's blog. Do you know any other site I can use to rip music from the net?

This past Friday there was random storm over Rome and the cypress in my garden fell down on the veranda (we took some pictures, but William is acting up again and won't let me upload things to photobucket/imageshack). We were all abit surprised (and grateful) that it was the cypress and not the cluster pine to fall down.
Good things about this mess:
- The cypress broke at about 4 metres form the ground, which means that I can still tie up the hammock :)
- We have a lot of wood for next Winter.

I finished the shoes for my friend! They came out like this (link goes to my DA)

Also, I made a couple of sketches for the tees for my sister's friend )

I'm pretty happy with how they came out (and the guy was happy, too). It looks like I found a way to make a bit of money over the summer :)


P.S. Brendon just tweeted about being bound to propose on a Staurday night. He sure doesn't waste any time... I hope he knows he's also bound to propose to someone whose name starts with "S" (and ends in "pencer"!)

Last week I joined [livejournal.com profile] pic_exchange and never got aroud to actually post any picture. I'm doing it now, tho :D


This week theme is
Show us your favorite building in your town.

Not really a building, but it is my favourite )


Meme time! (stolen from the flist)

1. Have your music library ready.
2. Choose one (1) song from your music library whose title starts with the first letter (or number) of your screen name.
3. Repeat this process with each successive letter (or number) in your screen name until you run out of letters (or numbers).
4. Post up your results.
5. BONUS POINTS: Upload your mix (whether it's individual songs or a .zip of all the songs) and include the mix in your post.
the nasssty_slyth music mix )

What else.... Oh! I tattooed two little initials on my best friend and her boyfriend's ring fingers. We chose to try doing them in white ink, so they wouldn't be too showy (even if they are under their rings). She told me it hurt more than the one I did behind her ear, but less than the one we did on her side. They are happy and I'm practically giddy for them :D

Also, she brought me a pair of canvas white flats to colour. We decided to do them "Dr. Slump" style :D I think I'm going to have a lot of fun with them.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] of_silverandsky and I decided to tweet l i k e t h i s t o d a y f u l l s t o p c a p i t o l w e t h i n k t h i s i s h o w c a p i t a l r y r o t h i n k s c o l o n n o c a p i t a l s o r a c t u a l p u n c t u a t i o n c o m m a j u s t l e t t e r s f u l l s t o p c a p i t o l t h i s i s h o w h e a c h i v e s t h e m o n o t o n e e x c l a m a t i o n p o i n t c a p s l o c k x d.
Right?


p.s. William the laptop is starting to act up again /o\ he won't let me upload pictures on photobucket or imageshack. Also, he keeps fucking up the html. I asked dad if he knew what could be the problem. He looked at me and said "You are aware that your laptop is almost 7 years old, right?" and I was like "No, I've had it for 4 years!" to which he answered with "You do remember that it was a second hand laptop, right?". Poor William is getting old D:

JWalk! You UTTER PRECIOUS FACE!
As you might know, JWalk and Eric Ronick decided to make beautiful music together! Why don't you pull a Pete Wentz and download their beautiful babies? :D

Also! Cats!Panic have eaten my brain and I made icon of them :D

Kitties icons )

And since I had PhotoShop open, I made some more icons :D

  • I decided today that I needed a chest of drawers near my desk because my art supplies were spread all over my bedroom and stashed in different places and it couldn't go on like that. I asked mum if she would be free on Saturday to give ma a lift to Ikea, she asked me why and I told her that I wanted to put some order in my room. Her answer: "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH GET IN THE CAR WE ARE GOING NOW BEFORE YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND".
    So, say "Hi!" to Baloo )

  • Regarding this morning quick post, I want to have Sweet Talk's babies and spend an afternoon swinging on a hammok with Arsdiona.

  • [livejournal.com profile] bbbartists is looking for pinch-hitters. Since I'd already sent my pieces, I volunteered and they sent me another draft straight away. I read it already, but I'm not sure what I want to draw yet...

  • Since my art juices were slow, I took out the cat!Brendon WIP. Let's just say that now there's a cat!Spencer, too. I particularly like his bitch muzzle :)

Also, I found this fantastic sheet music )
aredblush: (MCR / Frank / Sky guitar)
I'm trying to gear myself up enough to get down to business with these sketches and there's no better way to do that than share some music with my dear flist :D (so you can join me in the ancient and lost art of "head-swaying, hands-flapping, foot-stomping and air-shredding to loud music" and I won't feel like a total loser, ok? Ok.)

One! Coldplay set up a free download of their live album "LeftRightLeftRightLeft". Click on the link or, if you don't want to give your e-mail address to Chris and his friends, download it HERE (where I uploaded it ;D)

Two! JWalk latest twitters linking pics of adorable babies made me think of bb!JWalk... If you are feeling nostalgic like me, a listening or two of 5o4 Plan's Minutia EP" and "Treehouse Talk" might cheer you up :D (speaking of JWalk, I'm convinced he owns these shoes)

Three! I got my hands on The Cab's Glitz and Glamour EP". (I can't even say bb!Cabbabies because they're all still babies >:()

Four! If you're looking for new, nice, neat music, TEAM LOVE is the answer to your needs, as is Freeindie.com

Completely urelated, THIS BLOG is amazing!
