Tell me about yo'self!

Who are you?  Are you on twitter/LJ/ffnet?

What do you write?  What do you like to read?

Who is your favorite twicharacter?

Tell me something quirky about yourself!

Dude, I'm lame, I pressed enter before I even typed anything.

Valentine's Day is coming soon...and it got me to thinking(uh-oh)

Me and my hubs kind of changed things around. We don't really celebrate this holiday anymore. It seems really silly in our relationship to have to buy each other chocolate or whatever on this day.

We consider this a kids holiday now and we only buy stuff for our kids.

What's the take in the forest? Do you think Valentine's Day is silly or what?

For your time:

I don't think I've ever recced a fic before...but this one deserves it.  I love undiscovered gems...this one certainly qualifies.  Thanks to twatter, i found this lovely little tale...

THE GENTLEMAN FROM WASHINGTON STATE

it's like really awesome twi-fic meets the West Wing...kinda sorta.  It's new but it's looking like the author is updating quite often...which is WIN

Read it :)

and because i <3 him.....

 Why does Bella always smell like strawberries ?

edit : What is your favourite perfume ?

Got this through the best Twitter RT chain EVER.

I don't know why he's channeling Al Bundy on a bathroom floor. I don't really care.

I just know it's a good thing I'm at school right now or you wouldn't be hearing from me for several hours.

I have nothing important to say. I just love me a Viking. I just got my period (Am I allowed to say that here?) and I'm in pain. Today is my day off so I'm home, reading, waiting on my meds to kick in and wanting lots of pics, gifs, or anything on Alexander Skarsgard. So show this lover some love. Please?

Tom Petty. Check yo self.

Ok random.

Anyway - Here's what's pinging around my head today.

~ I'm re reading Twilight. I checked it out of the library last week. It was just sitting on the shelf - all lonesome, battered and abused from fangirls. 

I completely forgot about:

1.) Jessica having curly hair in it. I don't know why that struck me as so odd.  

2.) The perfection that is: "Hello. I'm Edward Cullen." *heavy sigh* 

3.) Kstew is seriously perfect for Bella.

I mean, stay with me -  what normal teen stutters and blinks more than Bella Swan? Kstew.  Brilliant casting. 

~ I read drivel only. Like Twilight, supernatural romance YA drivel.  I'm gonna finish up the Mortal Instruments series, read some book called Uglies and then I need something serious business. 

Any reccs? 

~ My Tax return is here! I mean it's miniscule but it's something and I fully intend to blow it on nonsense. Like make up and clothes and a new belt for DD.  And tomorrow it's supposed to be sunny! YAY! All around a good start to the weekend! 

What are you happy about today? 

hullo there, gents!

donut forget, it's free-for-all friday!  post whatever you want!  you have until 3pm eastern tomorrow!  exclamation point!

were i to post anything, it'd be about how life no longer holds meaning now that bones is on hiatus until april.

git to it!

vintage hottie for your time:

Jimmy Fallon posted this on his twitter this morning :)

hehehe for more "Robert Pattinson is Bothered" videos, go to Fallon's website HERE.

So I am having some thechnical issues here in the forest. It could just be ME and I am happy to accept that, but I thought I would send up a flare in case other share in my woes.

1. I rarely can reply or post comments on campfires. The comment box comes up but when I go to type words into the box, NOTHING happens. Its frustrating for me and sad for you guys because you are missing out on my razor sharp wit.

2. I can't change my AVATAR. Just won't happen. I am destined to go through this site, when I am able to post anything, as a sad panda. And I was so hoping to be a scary clown today.

Anyway- if there are any girl scouts here in the forest that would like to help a little old woman, let me know. Also, if I am not alone in my techno fail, I would love to know that too!

 True Blood's Ryan Kwanten suits up for the cover of August Man magazine’s March 2010 issue.

The 33-year-old Aussie actor posed for celeb photographer Mitchell McCormack and spoke about life as an actor. Check it: source

On making sure he keeps a life outside acting: “I don’t mean to sound preachy, but I think it is a mistake that a lot of actors make. They just surround themselves with the world of acting and therefore that is all they know.”

On watching his passion for the craft grow: “It wasn’t until the roles started getting bigger and the storylines more complex that I realized there was a true profession behind this. As the roles got deeper that passion for the craft was cemented in my veins.”

On leaving behind his life in Australia: “It was never a planned move to Hollywood, but once I arrived in L.A. it sunk its teeth into me and no matter how hard I tried it wouldn’t let go.”

Emmett, Valentines Day,

Be There or Be Square...

Have  you written/submitted yours yet?

The hours are ticking down...

Emibella and I will be sipping champagne and reading the lovelines....

Hey all, Happy Friday!

I want to talk about music and what kind tracks would fill up the moments of your lives.  I think music played a key role in both Twilight and New Moon (whether effectively or not is another discussion) and obviously is an influence in a lot of people's fanfics. 

While at the Editors (who are on the NM soundtrack) concert tonight (er, last nite) thinking that their new stuff reminds me of Depeche Mode, which then of course made me think of high school and of all the songs that I still listen to from that angsty time, and wondered what "new" music I will carry with me throughout my life.  There is so much music out there but what do you think will survive on your playlists? My "soundtrack" continues to grow and songs that may no longer be "relevant" in my life i keep in "FAV ROCK" playlist and they continue to stir up feelings of nostalgia.  THE song for me, as cliche as it may be, is Nothing Else Matters - i played it when i was angry, sad or just wanted to blast a song and role down the windows and it expressed everything my young self needed to get out.

So tell me, what is THE song for you? what comprises your life's soundtrack?

and HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY 
 

(my apologies if this isn't very coherent)

 Fics (yeah, I talk about fics a lot) where Bella can't breathe while kissing Edward and she has to "come up for air".  Really?  Am I the only person on the planet capable of being able to kiss and breathe at the same time?  Does she not have a nose?

So what about you guys?  What little details in fics bug you?

GIVE ME MY SMOKING ICON BACK IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!! YOU KILLED EDWARD ON ME??????????????????????????????

HOW COULD YOU DO THAT????????????

I just took a peek in my cabin & found this AWESOMENESS from a lovely Camper named britpop! Watch it. It's so cool!

THANK YOU, britpop!

When has someone in the Twi-verse blown you away with awesomeness????

OFFICIAL: “NO DECISION HAS BEEN MADE”; HOWEVER…

 Reportseverywherethis evening claim “Breaking Dawn” is going to be adapted into two movies.

The official word given to Gossip Cop from a rep for Summit is, “No decision has been made and as we have said all along we are continuing to work with Stephenie Meyer to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen.”

HOWEVER, a well-placed source tells Gossip Cop dividingBreaking Dawn into two pictures “is the direction that it’s going in.” We’re told that from a practical standpoint, separating the story into two parts and shooting back-to-back is what makes most sense.

Earlier reports seem to be fairly accurate when it comes to timing, specifically, that filming may begin in October.

Gossip Cop will keep you posted when plans are officially finalized.

DEVELOPING…

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL THESE PEOPLE TO MAKE UP THEIR DAMN MINDS

Can someone tell me what is going on in this photo, it's freaking me out!

WTVOC did one of these a while ago, but since we have so many new campers we are going to do one again. 

POST A PHOTO OF YOUR DESKTOP

You may be saying "But Emibella, I don't know HOW to post a picture of my desktop!!" 

So I am going to teach you how to do a screen grab. It's an awesome tool. You can grab as many stills of RPatz as your little heart desires with this. Honest.

SO LET'S FOLLOW ALONG:

ON A MAC,  go to your desktop and hit the command key (the apple) + shift +3, then skip to step 5 in the PC tutorial. 

ON A PC:

1. Go to your desktop at press the "Print Screen" key, it's often 4 keys in on the right side of a traditional keyboard. Nothing will happen but don't be alarmed.
2. Open up "Paint" from your start menu. It's in Accessories on every windows computer.
3. Press the "Ctrl" and the "V" key at the same time. It's paste, but a right click won't work. You will see your desktop magically appear in paint, and it will be pretty damn huge.
4. Save the file as a jpeg, I do it to my desktop since it's easy to find and then I just delete it when I am done.
5. Go to photobucket or some other image hosting site and save it on there.
6. Copy the URL for the image location.
7. Use that little button in the comments section that looks like the sun over the mountains to paste in the URL
8. Click on the image in the comments and grab the corner, resizing so you don't post your big ass picture.
9. When you are done, you will have something like this:

EMIBELLA's NETBOOK DESKTOP

NOW POST YOUR DESKTOP! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!
