Potter on Ice Productions present: how to have a lack of uploadings for a month [09 Mar 2006|05:46pm]
[ mood | I NEED holydays ]

TOMORROW it would have been a whole month that I don't upload this journal. I'm a girl who lives on the limit.
Please, forgive me, I'm just a young student who tries to gain some money with silly special challenges at school. I could win 300$ if I write an essay. It ain't bad.

So, as I promised, here is the EVGENI PLUSHENKO set. I love him, adore him. He doesn't skate, he writes poems on ice. I was hypnotized while I was looking at his exercices. XD

As always, teasers: 
  


And then, as I am green-eyed and kind-hearted, a special set for the ones who HATE Harry Potter. You are not alone.


That's really all for now. I got a really bad note in chemistry and I'm sick and tired.
Let me be.

PEACE, LOVE and... Phantom of the Opera [07 Feb 2006|04:54pm]
[ mood | geee... Gerard Butler... ]

Think of me
Think of me fondly when we've said goodbye
Remember me once in a while, please promise me you'll try

Much Love to y'all!! Did you see it? New face for [info]nudodelacorbata! I have to admit that this is my 70's period. I'm feeling HIPPIE.. tought I'm not wearing any strange pants or flowers anywhere.
But the biggest news is that you won't find any photo of mine on the web.. but a drawing! I did it with my own two hands and colored it with PaintShopPro9.0 .. this is actually me yesterday evening. I'm wearing my favourite 70's t-shirt and.. yes! Thought I'm female my hair is the shortest ever, as short as my male-classmates. (Males? In my class? Really? Where?)
Mr.Leto was TOO GOOD for this livejournal, he's too good for everything, actually XD. The colors were too dark according to me.. and after all I prefer handmade-layouts. So SPREAD YOUR ICON-LOVE with elnudodelacorbata!

Yesterday evening I also watched again on dvd the musical "The Phantom of the Opera". Gorgeous. Great. Love the songs and even if I'm italian I listen 'em in English. They deserve that. My favourite one is "Think of Me" as I can sing it too as Christine Dae does. I don't come out from several singing lessons, but I'm a quite good opera-singer. (Sul maaaare luccicaaaa l'astro d'argeeeento...) And "Think of Me" is actually the only song I'm able to play with piano. XD
I got so impressed by the movie that I decided to make a double-icon set out of it! So.. are you ready for 20 lovable icons?
As always, teasers:

    

The Phaaaaantom of the Opera is theeeeere... )

There's another important thing to say, [info] ..you won the "Is really Tom Felton?" contest, but the price for you was the previous set (what a surprise!).. so I'll try and do some other icons with Tom next time (he's sooooo cute...). What about the image you pointed me..? I love that image! I've several sizes of , but.. I'm still not able to find the total set! I have to look around deeper and deeper (Come to me, Malfoy!) and I'll also ask to some of my other friends (we're the Felton-club) and when I'll get any kind of results I'll tell you. Promised. XD
Isn't this love? That's all for today, I'll leave you with the last part of the song I wrote on top.

When you find that once again you long to take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment spare a thought for me.

We never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea.
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of me.
Think of all the things we've shared and seen,
Don't think about the way things might have been.

Think of me,
Think of me waking, silent and resigned.
Imagine me
Trying too hard to put you from my mind.
Recall those days, look back on all those times,
Think of the things we'll never do.
There will never be a day when I won't think of you!

Flowers fade, The fruits of summer fade,
They have their seasons so do we.
But please promise me that sometimes
You will think...
Of me!

Mr. Leto on stage! [21 Jan 2006|03:01pm]
[ mood | OMG did you see him? LETO!! ]

Viggo Mortensen died fast and painfully... I was gettin' bored of all that brown. That is definitely not my colour. And then.. OMG this is Jared Leto!! I'm not talking about a I-don't-know-who-else good guy, this is Mr. Leto, the most gorgeous man in the UNIVERSE... Viggo died for a good reason. XD
I mean: gorgeous man, very deep personality, great singer, really good actor.. need else? RICH. (Told ya money's my obsession.)

So, today I changed layout, which is a record for me: the first one lasted.. three days? But don't be scared, mr.Leto's going to remain for a long, long, long time... *evil grin*

Ta ta for now, see you on Tuesday!

Everything for an Alexader-time [20 Jan 2006|04:02pm]
[ mood | Hephaistion-addicted ]

What a beautiful thing are -good purposes-! I never respect them. Bite me if you can.
Nothing really special happened, my surfing-time is longer than ever this week. Next week I know I'll disappear. This is a thing that pushes my faith down. When I have time, nobody has time for me. When I don't have time, everybody's searching for me. This is stupid, this is also irritating, as I don't have the internet-connection at home, so I have to find out the most different places to plug in. At granny's, at school.. never at home, and never for how long I want. Haha. Make me laugh.
Today I added many many friends, my dear little-playwife, and other friends such as Alina (the great) and Laurel_tx, who makes the most beautiful and funny Potter Icons ever.
One last thing: Aerendir, I TOTALLY HATE YOU. And I love you also, I can't stop doing this. You're my best friend, but you're such a bad-ass guy, you behave like a Gryffindor with me (and behaving like a Gryffindor with me is such a bad and awful thing..).. so the best  that I can do except waiting for you every damn time, is to dedicate you an icon-set featuring Alexander the Great. You are my Alexander, remember that. What about you people? You can grab whenever you want, it's obvious! XD

As always, here are some samples:
   

We all have fears.. )

..and a really beautiful thing. Read this:
Hephaistion: The generals question your obsession with Darius. They say it was never meant for you to be King of Asia.
Alexander: Naturally. They want only to return to their homes rich with gold. But I’ve seen the future, Hephaistion, I’ve seen it now 1000 times on 1000 faces. These people want.. need change. Aristotle was wrong about them.
Hephaistion: How so?
Alexander: Look at those we’ve conquered.. they leave their dead unburied, they smash their enemies’ skulls and drink them as dust, they mate in public.. What can they think or sing or write when none can read? But as Alexander’s Army they can go where they never thought possible. They can soldier or work in the cities.. the Alexandrias, from Egypt to the outer ocean. We could connect these lands, Hephaistion.. and the people..
Hephaistion: Someone say these Alexandrias have become extensions of Alexander himself.. they draw people into the cities to make slaves of them.
Alexander: But we freed them, Hephaistion, from the Persia where everyone lived as slaves! To free the people of the world.. such would be beyond the glory of Achilles, beyond Herakles.. a feat to rival Prometheus who was always a friend to man.
Hephaistion: Remember the fates of these heroes, they suffered greatly.
Alexander: We all suffer. Your father, mine. They all came to the end of their time. And in the end, when it’s over, all that matters is what you’ve done.
Hephaistion: You once said “the fear of death drives all men”. Are there no other forces? Is there not love in your life.. Alexander? I wonder sometimes if it’s not your mother you run from. So many years, so many miles between you. What is it you fear?
Alexander: Who knows these things? When I was a child my mother thought me divine. My father, weak. Which am I, Hephaistion? Weak or divine? All I now is.. I trust only you in this world. I’ve missed you. I need you. It is you I love, Hephaistion, no other.
Hephaistion: You still hold your head cocked. Like that
Alexander: I’ve stopped that
Hephaistion: Like a deer listening the wind, you strike me still, Alexander.. And you have eyes like no other. I sound as stupid, as a schoolboy, but.. you’re everything I care for, and by the sweet breath of Aphrodite.. I’m so jealous of losing you to this world you want.
Alexander: You'll never loose me, Hephaistion. I'll be with you always, till the end.

...isn't this romantic? Cry, you people, cry! Muhahaha. And with your tears, I leave you.
Hasta luego!

PIMP my livejournal! [19 Jan 2006|04:40pm]
[ mood | <- HipHop dragon's in da house ]

Halla halla halla, tkL is in da house!
Yes, but today I'm going to put some "walls" in this career I'm building up with icons (yes, An, I'm an icon-factory! tkL and the Icon Factory.).
I noticed that I posted on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday.. and today. With no breaks. This ain't right. As next week I perfectly know I couldn't do this anymore. So I made a decision yesterday night, while I was listening to some Russian Opera on the radio before going to sleep. My free-web days are Tuesday e Thursday, so I'll put a -stop- sign in front of me for all each other day. This means I'll post only twice a week, and this is not such a bad thing.
First as I'll have the chance to post more icons at the same time, instead of posting them little by little.
Second, I'll probably have the chance to make MORE icons to post. Which is good for you too.
I'm an egghead, I know. Autographs later, please.
So, today we have a double-set in the bag!
First one features Orlando Bloom.. and for the ones who know me, NO. This is no return to the past. I don't like him no more as I did first. He's just a good looking-idiot to me. When I heard him talking at the "Mtv Video Music Awards" in Miami, and the only thing he's been able to say was "Whoo-hoo" he lost all his charm on me. I want a man who's able to speak, also. XD
Second set features Alicia Keys, who bewitched me once again with her song "Karma". She's a great singer, and also has a perfect smile. This set might seem real basic to you, but what matters is the colour. I'm just trying to find out some new styles for my icons. This really is what an artist should do. New stiles.

Yes, I'm using too many short sentences in this post, it's just that today I have acid blood running through my veins. At school, today, the presents for two of my schoolmates who party their birthdays have just arrived. Obviously also my name was on the Happy Birthday-letter, but there's just one thing that really bothers me.
I made a few reckonings and found out that I give 75€ a year for my schoolmates' birthday-presents. 5€ to each. And the presents are really good. 55€ each present, this means you can buy something quite good.
Money has never been a problem to me until my parents divorced. Now money's my obsession. I don't have nothing in my pocket, as Alexander said: "I paid for your bastard children, and kept nothing for me". So I don't really know how I can find 5€ almost every month for a present. But out of the economical reason of my doubts, the problem is only one: I don't get nothing back.
My birthday's on July, 28th to be exact. School's over for that day and, obviously, nobody's going to organize a collection for my present. It's not the present that pisses me off. It's just that most of the schoolmates I have done the gift to don't even text-message me to tell me "Happy Birthday". This is the irritating thing. Nothing else, just this.

Well, it's better for me to leave you with my sets. I always give presents to people.
teasers:

     

happy birhtay! There's a present for you! )

Leave you now, have a nice day.. and may Brokeback Mountain win the Oscar too. XD

...Viggish...? [18 Jan 2006|04:50pm]
[ mood | *squeeeeeeee* ]

I perfectly know I shouldn't do this, it's always the same story: I write in a journal 4 times a day as I have the chance to surf on the web, then I remain stuck on the same post for a century. Goddess.
But ain't no problem for ya'll, as my icons are there and always up for grabbing (I adore the word -grab-) .. and now I also have a header!! Thanks to anahid who borrowed me the code and always helps me so much. Isn't Viggo great? I adore this photoshoot. Strange the fact that I didn't choose Jared Leto for this first version.. but he'll come soon, don't be scared (in fact, you should be XD).
For today, another icon-set featuring... the main theme! VIGGO MORTENSEN! Well, Viggo-Aragorn, exactly: 10 icons for everyone who loves him. Well, Nasty, don't worry, better icons for you will come soon *points at Draco, hidden behind a curtain*! I didn't know you have a livejournal that is not poisonous_bites! I found it out just today!
Riiiiiight, I'm running away from my homework once again, science is not my sweetheart at the moment. (Are you lonesome... toniiight.)
This journal is growing more and more stupid, maybe 'cause my english is gettin' worse and worse. It's been two weeks that my english teacher doesn't come to school and I'm sleeping on my desk two hours a day. Tell me if this is school-life.

For Jared's ass *is -ass- a bad word, actually?*, I really need to study, so I leave you with the icons. Nasty and Sour, don't puke. Potter will die, someday. XD
Teasers:
   

 

and the Viggo Icons are here! )

Oh.. yes! One last thing: I added my web page, but it isn't the right one octually. It's just a subdomain I have, hosted by Anahid. I don't know if I'll use it again, but  if I won't get a true website, there will be. An, keep it warm for me, dear.
That's really all, folks!

P.S.
4 GOLDEN GLOBES for "Brokeback Mountain"! Great thing. Great movie. Great. *shakes her head*

another brick in the wall [17 Jan 2006|06:19pm]
[ mood | forgive me, Alina! ]

¡Hola a todos! ..who doesn't die.. comes back! (Voldemort allready did it) 
Well, I found out that Nasty Taste enjoys my icons (which is a real luck).. so why don't do others? I just want to get the Potter-wave over, so.. new icons for you and your.. your.. ah, piss off, for EVERYTHING you want 'em to be for. XD
Another thing: I really have to ask for sorry to Alina, webmistress of the great http://www.lindsaykorman.net who asked me to make some icons for her.. but she asked me that LAST SEPTEMBER.. and.. I never answered! Alina, if you're here, I made 10 icons for you and the wonderful Linsday Korman.. I'm so sorry. I promise that, if you'll ask me again, they'll arrive in a minute. Contact me whenever you want. I'm so sorry! I'm an idiot (not american-idiot, but that works the same) I know, Potter's having a really bad influence on me. Viggo, save me!!
And.. Sourcream and Nasty.. I ADORE VIGGO MORTENSEN! Ok, he's not the best good-looking men ever (that one is Jared Leto) but I admire him as artist. And the name "el nudo de la corbata" was perfect for the icon.. thought he's not wearing any tie. These are mind-travels, don't bother me.. my preciouuussss...!

Better to get over with it, I leave you with my icons (I don't know if it's better or worse..). Here are teasers. Grab grab grab!

 

   

 

 

aaand.. grab! )

ta ta for now!

..y se hace el nudo de la corbata / first icons! [16 Jan 2006|04:52pm]
[ mood | (looks like Harry Potter..) ]

..and so it began, another icon-journal producted by a total non-artistic icon maker. I just hope I'll be enough able to use this livejournal (as it allready seems quite difficult to me, dude.).. and able to run away if you'll want to follow me with torches and pitchforks.
Well..that's just a stupid post to confirm the account.. so.. what do you usually write in a stupid post?
Jes, firstly the name.
"El nudo de la corbata" in spanish means "the knot of the tie" and I perfectly know that it could seem nonsense for you, but this small sentence is the first sentence I ever rode in spanish language.
"Se afeita y se hace el nudo de la corbata" ..genius! Applauses after, thanks.
No other stupid things to write, today. It's a quite earnest day, and I'm just wasting my time and avoiding to fight against my homeworks.. it's a hard life.
So I go away (yes, breathe out, now you can.) and always remember: "save a horse, ride a CowBoy!"

Here are some samples:
1.   6.  10.

get the icons! )

...have fun!
