New layout? Ideas? And a meme! Or two.

[lady_sarai]

So, I waffled back and forth on doing the xmmfication, and woke up this morning and realized I wanted to do it, but oops. Missed the deadline by a few hours.

>_<

Such is my life. =P

Ah well!

I think I want a new layout, as in, new header and different colors. Must think on this and consider possible headers.

What fandom? Fandom related at all?

Hmm... Ideas? Suggestions?

Still looking for my mysterious and anonymous LJ Angel...

I feel like I could write today, if given half a chance at, you know, my own time.

It's wicked hot, yo.

Oo, meme! Snagged from selenak:

Click on my icons, pick out one that looks interesting to you, and ask me something about it. Why I chose it, what it is, what the quote is from, anything!

And, alternately (or additionally), doing the meme icon thing that went around ages ago: Pick an icon of mine and I will write a drabble for you.

I believe I can handle drabbles at this moment in time. ;) Heh.

I pretty much either know or can figure out all of the icons, but I think I would like a drabble. For the icon, I choose the "life of friends" icon. The drabble doesn't have to be Rent, just have something to do with the whole theme of it. :) Cause I love me my best friend!

Or maybe the reading icon, always a favorite of mine. ;)

Could you explain "the witness" one? It's cool looking, but I don't really get it. =)

Well, I made that for theatreicontest, which had a challenge that... for the life of me, I can't remember what it was. But! This icon won first place! =D (Of course, then the comm was deleted. >_<)

So, the icon is of Mark, a character in the musical RENT. (Not sure how familiar you are with that... but it's my favorite and Mark is my favorite character. =P)

The text is in reference to the song "Halloween", which is AWESOME and is Mark's monologue and pretty much sums his character up, toward the end of Act II. He's asking himself how and why things have happened the way they did, and the best part of the song is totally just plain MARK:

"Why am I the witness?
And when I capture it on film
Will it mean that it's the end
And I'm alone?"

So, long answer, but the short answer is that Mark is The Witness, the one who documents what is happening and is probably the one who will be left alone in the end. ::huggles her Markie:: I lurve him.

Oh, and here:

Halloween, film version because Anthony Rapp's emoting KEELS me everytime.

And look! You get a song with your answer. ;)

I know and <3 your icons. I demand a drabble. Remember Cedric. (Do you hate me?)

[lady-sarai.livejournal.com]

Why should I hate you? Because you demanded and forgot your manners? ;) I <3 you. What do you know? Am I daft?

Thanks for the explanation!

And a song? Clearly, I am the winner today.
