raise your glass

Yes, I am alive! :D I know, I have neglected eljay for a month, but I was busy enjoying summer. Y'know, relaxing, going out, enjoying the sun, catching up on manga, writing (ohh, it feels so good now that I actually have time to finish writing a story/chapter the same day I start it!), vidding, photoshopping (as you probably can see by the ridiculous amount of icons I've just uploaded) and all that sort of stuff. :D Also, I've been working at my father's shop, so that's another reason why I couldn't update lj. XD;

To make up for my absence, I made a new header! ♥ This one features Sakura and Syaoran. well, one of the many versions of the two of them, anyway XD; There were supposed to be also Kuro-rin and Fay in there, but it looked better with just Syaoran and Sakura. The lyrics are from one of my favourite songs, 'Leave Out All The Rest' by Linkin Park. I hope you like this header. I sure do! :D

Today is also my father's birthday, so happy birthday to my dad! ♥

I can't write anything else right now, because I have to go. You'll still hear from me, I promise. :D I hope you are all enjoying summer! ♥

P.S. I so have to see HPB - I feel like this movie is going to be awesome! :D

Probably you're all like, 'Where the hell did that quote come from?!?'. XD; It's from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest bloopers. I bought the DVD some days ago, with the bonus features, and, gosh, they were hilarious! XD Orlando's laugh is so cute <3! Keira, too, laughs most of the time, and Johnny says so many funny things! XD They make me laugh so much everytime I watch them, really, I can't stop laughing! XD

You should probably have a laugh, too. You know you want to. :D
Anyway... today I talked with Ondy-san (guide_light) after what seemed ages, and Mao was online, too (indelible_scars), and we had our little three-crazy-girls talk which made my day. ♥

So, basically, I wanted to post because right now I'm happy, and I wanted you to know. XD; Oh, yes, I've almost finished Harry Potter. ( Spoilers. I bet you already know everything, anyway. XD ) Must keep reading!

I. Have. Harry. Potter. And. The. Deathly. Hallows. In. English. *Is too shocked to say something.*
*cough* Okay, I know that most of you have already read it, BUT I'm Italian and Harry Potter won't be translated 'till December or something like that. SO I'M HAPPY. :D

I've never read Harry Potter in English. I'm used to read stories in English, so I don't think I'll have problems reading it, but obviously I'll have to look up at the dictionary once in a while (for the meaning of certain words, you know). And if someone (who has already read HP) would like to give me a hand when I ask for help, it would be awesome. :D

( Ramblings of real life. )

I love this song so much~ ♥
I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors
I'm so going to make an AMV with it when I get the clips.

Speaking of AMVs, I've uploaded some of my videos on YouTube, right here. They're only eight, but I plan on making more AMVs. They could take a while, though, I'm kinda slow at this. ^^; Stupid Movie Maker, it's all your fault.

Four days left to my birthday, yay~ XD
