Thought it'd be cool to make some icons you can use as default when you are reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I also made 3 banners you can post while on your Deathly Hallows hiatus.

Just now! I met Emerson Spartz and Ben Schoen at Borders. They were there for the MuggleNet Book Tour! I was so excited. I promised that I wouldn't scream or act like a crazy fangirl -- Let's just say, promises were made to be broken. For those of you who care, click to read what happened!

These MuggleCast icons have been sitting on my computer for months! I was never really happy with them, since I suppose I was a newbie to icon-making when I made them. Hopefully someone will enjoy them.

Looking back at some of my past posts, I realize that I've had an entire entry about music exactly...once! Mostly because I've been in complete Harry Potter mode since December. So NOW, I'm going to talk about a band I really really like, and their new album: Arctic Monkeys' Favourite Worst Nightmare.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Favourite Worst Nightmare is coming out tomorrow, I believe. But you can hear it now on Arctic Monkeys' AOLMusic Profile, or on AOL's Full CD Listening Party (which easier if you want to listen to each track seperately).
It's a pretty good sophmore effort, except for the fact that it's very similar to their first album, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not.
Sure, I wanted something a bit fresher, but that aside, it's quite catchy. Awesome dance album, with more complicated guitars. And when I say dance, I mean jump up and down like a crazy person, but same difference, right?
My favorite tracks at the moment are "D is for Dangerous" (this entry is titled with lyrics from that song), "Brainstorm," and "Old Yellow Bricks." (I pretty much like "D is for Dangerous" because I'm not really sure if the lyrics make any sense; sounds cool, but I have no clue what it's supposed to mean, if anything).
If you liked Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, then I  do think that you'll like this album. Now go, listen!

*dances*

The last bit of OotP is in 3-D? 
I was sort of excited at first.
Until I read that it was only at IMAX theatres. The IMAX near me doesn't play 3-D films (what's the point of an IMAX if it doesn't show 3-D films!?).
As I got to thinking, I realized that it would feel sort of un-Harry Potter-ish. 
Maybe I'm just bitter that I'll have to go all the way into DC to see it.
Probably.

(Basically, this post didn't have much of a point to it. It was just to show off the new Paolo Icon that I made. It's ace, isn't it? I've made quite a few more Paolo ones and I'll post them soon soon soon!)

Remember to support those who lost their loved ones this Monday. 
Orange and Maroon Effect tomorrow, April 20th! Show your support for the Hokies by wearing Orange and Maroon!

I've become sort of obsessed with making icons. First it was HP icons (which I have yet to post, but I will soon) and now I've become obsessed with making Paolo Nutini icons.
So here are some Paolo ones (and please, bear with me, I am a newbie when it comes to making and posting icons)

I've been having quite a good spring break. 
I visited my best friends and we had an awesome sleepover. We watched movies, listened to Maroon 5's "Makes Me Wonder" non-stop, and went to sleep at about 6 AM (I know, I'm such a rebel). Afterwards (since you really, really want to know) we hung out at the neighborhood park and spun ourselves silly on the round-a-bout (those spinny discs..that you spin yourself...what are they called? merry-go-rounds?). We also watched some kid nearly fall on this dome-shaped jungle-gym. It was quite terrifying.
Yesterday, my best friends came home with me, and we made fun of the blonde, empty-headed bimbos on The Hills. Today we acted like the type of teenagers I dislike: We hung out around the shopping center. We weren't out to buy anything in particular. We just had some slurpees and slim jims. And chilled (I hate that word).
We went back to our golden years (which isn't a term usually used to describe primary school years, but whatever) and gave eachother clown-esque makeovers. We've been taking photos all day (we are the myspace generation, after all). Now we're watching WWE Raw with my little brothers and their friends. So fake, but so funny.
I've been having so much fun these past few days, that I don't even mind that I haven't listened to PotterCast or MuggleCast. It's sort of a miracle.
......
I made quite a few LJ icons today, including the one I'm using for this post (I just looove it). I made some Adrian Grenier ones, as well as several Harry Potter ones. If you'd like to see some, feel free to comment or IM.

Thank you for reading this pretty pointless post <3
