So. The last time I posted icons was March 16. More than 3 months ago.
I am incredibly sorry for that. The end of the school year is always super hectic for me because I'm on the varsity tennis team for my school and then teachers give you research papers and an exceptional amount of work in order to cram everything in. It is a nightmare. However, I managed to make a few icons here and there and so I have a modest post of about 130 icons. :)

Anyways, sorry for neglecting my icon-making duties! I assure you that I will post icons much more frequently this summer. :D

These icons are a little bit weird, probably because I've been experimenting a lot. I'm not sure how I feel about a good percentage of them.

This post contains: Angelina Jolie, Heath Ledger, Iron Man, Tomb Raider, Wanted, The Darjeeling Limited, and assorted movies and celebrities.



The truth is...I am Iron Man. )

Hope you like these. Sorry for the wait again!
P.S. I freakin' LOVE the new Coldplay CD. Go buy it people!

I apologize for not posting icons in like forever. I seem to do this quite often, and my only excuse is that I'm lazy and it takes me hours to make these posts.

So, you probably don't care about long paragraphs that I may write about Harry Potter, Grey's Anatomy, and The Office, so I will put those in the next post. :)

[01] Becoming Jane

You can't cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don't want to. Cause when you find that right person for a first kiss, it's everything.  )

In the future, I will not post such large posts...I will limit myself to 50 icons a post. ;)
But anyways, hope everyone likes the icons!

P.S. You know the usual, but I thought I should just refresh you, because I never post this:
Comments are love.
Please credit me if you use.
No Hotlinking.
P.P.S. If you want a PSD of an icon from this post, just tell me which icon in your post and I will make a PSD and post them for you.

1. PURE BRILLIANCE PART 1.

2. PURE BRILLIANCE PART 2. I think #14 is like my favorite icon right now because it describes my life until I finish HP #7. :)

3. Everyone should watch the preview for Keira Knightley's upcoming movie, Atonement.

some thoughts about the movie and book... )

4. I'm also SO EXCITED FOR HP #7...I can't believe that it's the last one. I don't want it to be...I'm going to be like crying as soon as I finish the book. I've been rereading the whole series in preparation for the seventh book and right now I'm on the 4th one. I hope I can finish #6 in time, lol. ;) The great thing about reading these books after you know what's going to happening is that there are so many clues leading up to the final problem/mystery/whatever. I love looking for the clues while I'm reading.
I'll talk about HP #5 after I have seen it...

5. A little bit about my vacation... )

6. Finally, I have 144 icons for you. I have been making all of these since my last post and some of them I really like and some of them I really don't like. But I will post the crappy icons, in hopes that someone might actually like them. ;)

Here's the list:
[18] Atonement
[23] Emma Watson
[01] Eva Green
[24] Harry Potter (I'll have more next post!)
[35] Julian Casablancas
[14] Keira Knightley (I really don't like these icons.)
[06] Princess Leia
[03] Pirates of the Caribbean
[20] The Strokes
PREVIEWS:


This whole life is it a dream? I can't tell... )

7. You should all listen to THIS SONG.
It could quite possibly the most creative song I have ever heard. Just because I would never think of describing the world we live in with only words that end in I-Z-E.
Here are the lyrics because they are just so awesome.
Plus the song is just really good anyways.

8. I heart [info]nitaface. She was nice enough to share her musical preferences with me and upload lots of good songs for me to listen to. I really like Don't Look Back In To The Sun by the Libertines and Ruby by the Kaiser Chiefs (which reminds me, I have been thinking it was Kaiser "Chefs" for the longest time until my brother pointed out to me that it was "Chiefs" not "Chefs"...do not ask me to explain the workings of my brain. LOL) Have a great time in Mexico!

9. The Strokes are really the awesomest thing. :)
If you are scared away by my current obsession for them, rest assured, for I probably won't feel the same way within two or three months. My big, big, big obsessions aren't usually permanent. If they are permanent than I am most likely not that obsessive about them. ;)

10. I have been thinking of doing requests. If you would like to either request a PSD file to an icon or some icons made by me please let me know. I will post all of the PSDs in one post and all of the icons in another.
And also, if you are requesting icons, please do not give me really low-quality pictures because they are hard to work with. I only really work with low-quality pics if I am really desperate for the picture. So medium-quality or high-quality are preferable, but if it is a desperate situation and you absolutely need an icon of that picture, I will gladly oblige. ;)
Oh, and if you have any preferences about your icons, please let me know. :)

11. Finally, I have some wallpapers to post. Well, actually only two. One is an old Grey's Anatomy one and one is a more recent Star Wars one that I made for the contest at
Padme's Wardrobe. If you are a Star Wars fan and you have the time, it would be awesome if you participated.

The Grey's Anatomy one was just made for my desktop, so it's nothing special.

I think that's all for now..........
Hope you all like the icons! And request, request, request. :)

P.S. Here are a few more icons that I made while writing out this post and uploading the icons.

P.P.S. I put up a new little info thing. Recently, I've been putting merely a 300x300 square with 9 of my icons (I've been feeling somewhat lazy recently)...I try to vary the subjects of the icons, but sometimes that can be tricky as many of my good icons may be of the same person or fandom. ;)

1. I got a PRETTY PINK ZUNE people!!! :D
It looks like this.
I really wanted to get an MP3 player and I didn't really want to get an iPod since everyone has those...So I got a Zune and it is really cool. It has a bigger screen than an iPod and you can also send songs to Zunes near yours. It will like check to see if there are any Zunes in the area and than you can like communicate with them and send them songs...It's pretty cool, although I haven't gotten the chance to use that feature yet. And it also has a radio on it, which I probably won't use due to impatience, but it's still pretty cool.
The only problem I've had so far with it is that I'm having trouble converting my movies so that I can get them on my Zune. I will probably just buy a program though so that I can convert my movies over to my Zune.

2. I am going away for like a week on vacation. I'll be back sometime next week, not exactly sure, but I will miss all my buddies on my fl.

3. I have a few icons before I go though:
01-08: Keira Knightley
09-14: Julian Casablancas
15-19: Grey's Anatomy
20-31: Drew Barrymore

PREVIEW:


Seven billion people who got nothing to say... )

Hope you all like the icons! You will definitely be seeing Harry Potter icons in the next batch, along with some more Julian Casablancas... ;)

So, OMG. At World's End was absolutely amazing! I won't get in to it all because half of my fl knows how I felt about it and I will spend too long typing about it...And I don't feel like doing that right now. But, yeah, WOW. It was really good. And it got me like really obsessed with PotC again. Well, for the time being.

Another new obsession is my new musical love. ;)
The Strokes. And Julian Casablancas, their lead singer/frontman. (He can be seen in my Default userpic)
I don't know about the rest of you, but I think he's pretty good looking. And although his voice may not be considered "good," it is still unique and I like it. Plus, their songs are really, really, really catchy. My personal favorites are 1) When It Started (from the Spider-Man Inspired Soundtrack), 2) You Only Live Once, and 3) Juicebox. I'm uploading them for anyone who wants them.
But yeah, so anyways. I really kinda like them. They are fun to listen to and it I've been looking for something new to listen to recently. Ever since Grey's Anatomy ended, I'm not getting my steady amount of new songs to listen to. I love Grey's Anatomy because they have tons of good music and it really gets me to listen to different artists instead of the same old groups.

When It Started: (Really catchy, fun song)
http://www.box.net/shared/tckt2r0pub
Juicebox: (Just listen to the whole song, it gets better after the first 30 seconds or so IMO)
http://www.box.net/shared/8emftd3g2i
You Only Live Once: (Really good, very catchy)
http://www.box.net/shared/ssa6hlgxbq

Ok, so anyways, this post of icons is dedicated to the lovely [info]aftereightmints.

It was her birthday recently and she requested some Pirates of the Caribbean icons, so I have made some and more will follow as I have tons of screencaps (I capped both Black Pearl and Chest recently), so yeah.

Before I post these, just beware, the Black Pearl ones are really simple. The Dead Man's Chest icons are probably the best as I didn't stick to my regular style with them. Or in other words, I decided to be creative and not lazy.

[09] Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
[29] Pirates of the Caribbean: The Dead Man's Chest
[12] Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
[09] Julian Casablancas
[01] Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
[01] Kirsten Dunst
PREVIEW:


The world's a smaller place now........No mate, the world's the same - there's just less in it. )

Hope everyone likes these icons! And Happy belated birthday to [info]aftereightmints!
And I think that's all..........
Ok, yeah. I can't think of anything else at present.
