Lissiel's Journal

Here's the deal: you give me a subject (character, object, place) and some sort of prompt, and come the end of December I'll give you something, without any promises about what it'll be. You might get a new icon, or a drabble, or a sketch or a full-out picture or story, but you'll have SOMETHING for your stocking come Yule-time.

If you are reading this, you are welcome to ask for something.

I'll leave this post stickied at the top of my journal until December too, in case you want to come back to it later.

You are a Social Liberal (83% permissive) and an... Economic Liberal (8% permissive) You are best described as a: Socialist Link: The Politics Test on Ok Cupid Also : The OkCupid Dating Persona Test

Kind of interesting, though I had the same problem with the economic questions as I do with most of this kind of tests: that I believe every individual should have the right and responsibility to support themselves and their community to the best of their ability (ie. I support things like adult education and a living minimum wage) without relying on others, but I also think it's wrong for a society to allow people to suffer without making some attempt to help them. Which. Is a bit complicated and leads to mutually contradictory possible answers to a lot of questions.

Also, the "Famous People" chart is...a bit biased, I think. McCain is a centerist, but Obama is a socialist? Er. So make of that what you will.

Stolen from Laylah, that meme where you post five songs from your playlist that all start with the same letter. She gave me "C". You know the drill; comment if you take, if you wanna play let me know and I'll give you a letter. You're all super love.

Plastic Bertrand: Ca Plane Pour Moi
From Askerian, over on LJ. This is one of my happy silly songs, not so much for anything in the lyrics as for the adorably 1950's-ish "woo-oo-o-oo!" that gets thrown in with the chorus. ♥

Arrogant Worms- Canada's Really Big
"We're larger than Malasia, Almost as big as Asia! We're bigger than Australia and it's a Continent!" I have Canada-envy. It's a sad sad thing. *lol*

Evanescence: Cloud Nine
I'm always a little embarrassed that I like this band. This song is kinda creepy and wicked.
If you want to live, let live
if you want to go, let go
I'm never gonna be your sweet, sweet surrender

Suwabe Junichi- Cross with You
Image song for Atobe Keigo from Prince of Tennis. I like how petulant and yet sexy the singer makes this.

Angel Sanctuary- Cruel Tactics
No lyrics. I love how creepy and discordant it is.

Also, have a couple of extras, since I upped them anyway:

Cake- Love you Madly
Fun, good-paced song about loving without reservations or ulterior motives.
???-Touch
I don't know what this is. But I uploaded it apparently. Um. Suprise?
Local H- Toxic Why is it that I always find I actually REALLY LIKE Britney Spears' songs when they're covered by big, macho-sounding guys?
Stars- The First Five Times (Russian Futurists Mix) Very cool and modern sounding. If I ever wrote a story about a pair that were just in it for the sex and then woke up one morning and realized they had somehow ended up really caring about each other, this would be that story's theme song.
Fifth time in your bedroom
And finally, we rested
And you leaned upon your elbow
And began to speak to me

But you stopped yourself and kissed me
And I grabbed your lips and told you
I know, I know, I know
I feel the same as you

/Edit: I've started playing SMT: Digital Devil Saga again, now that I'm not making panic faces about Japanese every hour of the day anymore, and I'd forgotten how perfect it is as a de-stressing mechanism. There's seriously nothing for working out your aggression like devouring your enemies. ♥

They think I look like matsujun. LOL. You guys, no girl has EVER been that pretty, and he knows it.

Apparently, they also think that Ohno looks most like Kiera Knightly.Obviously, this site is too hilarious.

FEAR TEST

x = Somewhat
xx = Greater
xxx = huge enormous crippling omg fear

( Who's afraid of the big bad wolf? )

So, apparently I'm not scared of much, but I'm super-freaked out by what does scare me.

...yep, that sounds about right.
