Just a quick post to say that I'll soon start updating my rec list again. Err, starting with the recs I was supposed to put up in December. Whoops! O_O

I'm back, sort of, except I'm going to Slovenia for two weeks (omg I'll finally get some sleep!). Then I'll really be back. :D

Just if anyone's been wondering. :)

*hugs to all*

uni studies + 1.5 jobs + moving = 4 hours of sleep/night + crankiness D:

It should all be over by the end of May... I hope. D:

I'm back! :D [Insert excuses for being away - uni, work, exhaustion, etc.]

I think I'll have some more time from now on... Although I still have to finish my MA thesis from last year (why am I so lazy?), write a linguistics paper (I have no clue what about, although I might ask some of you for help - just to ask a few questions :P) and read a bunch of books for lit class (the only thing I'm looking forward to). But, ohwell, I'll do it somehow.

I've really missed you guys though. I bet a lot of fun/interesting stuff has happened while I've been away! Hopefully this means that I'll be able to find a lot of good new fic I haven't read yet. Any suggestions? Any news? :D There's no way I'll be able to check the last 2 months of f-list. :P

On another note, my paid account is about to expire. Should I buy one more year or not? I don't really know what's been happening with LJ and IJ for the last two months, so if any of you could advise me, I'd be really grateful. (I like having a paid account btw. D:)

About my rec lists... I'll try to update them as soon as possible. I can't say how long it'll take me, because I don't know when I'll have time or when I'll feel well enough to do it. I love keeping rec lists, but work has been incredibly exhausting lately, so that I usually don't have energy for anything on the days that I work. Meh.

And since my paid account is about to expire, here's a stupid poll at LJ.

And before I forget... Thanks to everyone for my birthday wishes. Sorry if I didn't respond to your posts. :( I'll try to find my way there in the near future... :)

PS - I'll be responding to all of your past comments soon.

The second rec post - incredibly late and incredibly short. Sorry about that. :/

# recs: 6

~*~*~*~

08 December - 14 December )

~*~*~*~

I think I might've missed a couple of fics from this week. I read them all three weeks ago, so I probably forgot a few... I'll add them later when I'll check the communities. :D

Yup. I just have too much to do at the moment. I have a paper deadline next week - a paper that I've barely started. I really need to focus on that. :/

So I'm going to try to avoid reading LJ until after Christmas. My holiday recs will have to wait until then as well, although I might post last week's this week, since I've read all the fics from then - I think.

If anybody needs to tell me something, or thinks I should know something, or anything like that (even though I doubt you do :P), you can email me. Or use the message feature on LJ. I'm also going to have the chat programmes on while I write (because some distraction is nice :P), so you're welcome to say hi there. :D

And that's it.

Don't break fandom/LJ while I'm gone. Or if you do, bookmark stuff so I can point and laugh at it (and you) later. :P

One of these days I'm going to completely embarrass myself by commenting on the wrong fic. Like I almost did just now - I almost submitted a cheery comment to a rather sad fic. This is what you get when you have about six fics open at the same time in order to comment on them. :P

As always, I thought I'd have enough time to write longer recs, but I failed at that. Also, I thought I'd have enough time to read Snarry as well this year, but I failed at that too. I fail a lot it seems. D:

... So, here are the H/D recs for the first week of December, as promised (lacking Snarry and 'proper' reviews, obviously *fails*). There are 12 of them, thanks to hd_holidays who have been posting 4 (!!!) fics/art pieces every day. Yay! :D

~*~*~*~

01 December - 07 December )

~*~*~*~

So, these were my, umm, SuperUltraTurbo H/D holiday recs #1. :P

Now go read the fics and comment! :D

Does anybody know how to create animated images (icons) out of videos? Like, if you have a short video, and you want to capture a few seconds in it and make it into an icon... I have Photoshop if that helps. :)

I've tried looking on Google, but all I can find is how to make several images into one animated image. I'd be able to do that, but I need to know how to "extract" the images from video first. :/
