Remember your first LJ? The free one with only six icons? In this meme, you have to choose and post the six icons you would keep if you had no choice but go back to the six limit. They don't have to be in your list of icons you're using right now, but you have to explain why you chose those specific six. Next, you have to tag six people to do the same.
( clearly I've been here too long, my first LJ had 3 icons but I'll play with 6 )

Oct. 3rd, 2007 10:38 pmYes, another book meme,
willow_kat posted a meme of banned books since apparently it's Banned Book Week (according to the ALA (Sept. 29-Oct.6))
These are the 100 Most Banned Books from 1990-2000. As above, bold what you have read, italicize what you started but couldn’t finish,underline what you want to read, and strike through what you couldn’t stand.
( Apparently I read a lot of banned books, not too surprising. )

Oct. 2nd, 2007 06:44 pmThese are the top 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing’s users (as of today-ish). As usual, bold what you have read, italicize what you started but couldn’t finish, and strike through what you couldn’t stand. The numbers after each one are the number of LT users who used the tag of that book.
I'm adding the rule of: underline what you want to read since I had a lot of those.

Aug. 3rd, 2007 06:47 amI snagged this from
eireangel560 and it sounds like a fabulous idea!
Pay It Forward meme: I will send a handmade gift to the first 5 people who leave a comment on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I don't know what that gift will be yet, but you will receive it within 365 days. The only thing you have to do in return is "pay it forward" by making a similar agreement on your blog.
I don't know what you'll get yet, when you comment please leave me some ideas of fandoms, music, colours etc that you like, just random things you can think of that could serve as inspiration :)
Take a chance? Pass it on?

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4-7 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest (unless it's too troublesome to reach and is really heavy. Then go back to step 1).
6. Tag five people.

'But then, she'd have been feet away from the real culprit!' said Mr. Diggory impatiently. 'Elf? Did you see anyone?
Winky began to tremble worse than ever. Her giant eyes flickered from Mr. Diggory to Ludo Bagman, and on to Mr. Crouch.
Then she bulped and said, 'I is seeing no one, sir ... no one ..."

Three Things Meme
Jun. 26th, 2007 08:28 pmClearly by packing I meant that I must do online memes ;) Actually I just packed up the non refrigerated food I want to move with me. That's productive :)
Three jobs I have had in my life:
Babysitter
Retail (clothing)
Autoshow Greeter
Three places that I have lived:
Toronto ON
Sudbury ON
... that's it for long term, I need to move somewhere randomly one day :)
Three TV shows I like to watch (currently in production)
C.S.I - the last season renewed my enjoyment of this show
How I Met Your Mother
... I watch a lot of cancelled TV
OH The 4400 although I'm a season behind.
Three places I have been on holiday
New York City
Disney World
Victoria BC
Three of my favourite foods:
candy
pasta
fruit, love fruit :)
Three places where I would rather be right now:
New York City
Pretty much anywhere in Europe
Moya (meme rules don't state I have to choose a non fictional place ;) )

Jun. 8th, 2007 08:36 pmYou Belong in London |
![]() You belong in London, but you belong in many cities... Hong Kong, San Francisco, Sidney. You fit in almost anywhere. And London is diverse and international enough to satisfy many of your tastes. From curry to Shakespeare, London (almost) has it all! |
Not too surprising at all :)
