1. I'll respond with something random I like about you.
2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I'll name something we should do together.
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me (or just me).
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. I'll leave you a quote that is somehow appropriate to you. (or, I will include an icon just for YOU)
7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal so you can do the same for other people. Ok, must is a little strong. But it would only be fair.

I normally don't post links to things that I see in communities, but I felt like sharing something I found at disney today.

The person's costume for the Not So Scary Halloween Party is amazing, especially if you're a dorky Haunted Mansion nut like I am. Even if not, its worth seeing, because its an awesome costume pulled off very well.

You give me a pairing (or just one character) and a color, and I'll give you a sentence or two. Or a paragraph or two or whatever I feel like.

Your result for The Attachment Style Test...

The Waffler

36% Anxiety Over Abandonment and 38% Avoidance Of Intimacy

You're not the most decisive person. You tend to be unsure what you want out of your attachments, and it's unlikely you've had more than mediocre relationships. Either that, or you've had some good relationships, and some bad relationships, and you're just between them at the moment. The point is that you don't know what you want. You vacillate between trust and mistrust, and between low and high self-esteem. You probably have a couple of good friends who support you and believe in you, but you tend not to let things get too heavy. You like to sit on fences.

Fictional character with whom you might identify: Xander (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Amelie (Amelie)

Other Attachment Types:
Secure:	The Unicorn	\|	The Cuddleslut	\|	The Free Agent
Preoccupied:	The Cling Wrap	\|	The Squid	\|	The Insect
Fearful:	The Doormat	\|	The Leper	\|	The Exile
Dismissing:	The Hermit	\|	The Stone	\|	The Player
Confused:	The Waffler

meme thing - no cut for you

2008-06-17T20:41:14Z

Got this from the_betrayer

1. Reply to THIS post, and I will select four or five of your userpics that I like.
2. Make a entry and talk about the icons I have chosen.
3. Other people will then comment on your entry and you will do the same as I have done for you.
4. Thus creating a NEVER ENDING of icon squee.

I made this one for a Yuffie journal. I love her expression so much in it, I have to use it on my personal journal as well. I don't use it often enough, though. Because I'm hardly ever up to no good. ):

This is the first colored manga icon I ever made, of Haine and Lily from DOGS. I <3 it so much, for two reasons 1) it is the first colored manga icon I made and it looks decent, and 2)its such a heartfelt and omgsad moment in the plot. This is one of my favorite icons I've ever made.

Everyone needs a David Cook icon. SERIOUSLY. GO OUT AND GET ONE IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE ONE. I found this picture of him on photobucket, from his dance that he does during the showing of the Top 24 contestants. I think its one of the cutest pictures of him, and even though this icon sucks and is kind of grainy, I still love his kissy face.

This is the second manga icon I ever made, and I used another couple of Nill icons other people did as a reference point. I like it a lot.

If there are two icons that I am required to have on any journal I'm at, its a spaz icon and a pouting icon. Because I do both frequently. I'm doing it right now, actually. But anyways, I saw this still of Simba on a Disney icontest a couple of years ago, and made an icon of it. Didn't submit it to the contest, but included it in a batch of about 200 other Disney icons. Good times.
