3. Gripping narratives, including a poignant reverie on a blind date
4. Photography that spans the globe, ranging from old-fashioned Polaroids to underwater photography

Give a little to help a lot!

In honor of National AIDS Awareness month, we've added a new charitable vgift. For each red ribbon you purchase for $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of gross proceeds to IAVI.org (the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative) to support the development and global distribution of an affordable HIV vaccine (we'll cover credit card fees). You can read more about IAVI at lj_cares. While we're on the subject, we raised $740 from our November fundraiser for Love Without Boundaries, which supports emergency healthcare and adoption of Chinese orphans. We thank you for helping us help others.

Photos of the week

We're back with more incredible pictures from our super-talented LiveJournal photographers. Congratulations to ilya_gorokhov, who is the winner of our very first lj_photophile poll.

We hope you'll continue to post, vote, and comment! A gentle request: Please post only one photo at a time and limit size to 350x350 (so images display properly on friends pages). And now, without further ado, get ready to cast your ballot and view more awesome user content after the jump!

Curtains

Thanks, again, for joining us. Stay safe and snug out there!

Uhm, Sungmin love.

9 Sungmin icons~
1 Leeteuk signature, just for me but I'm taking requests for signature/avatars.

prewiew:


Under the cut, there's a boy named Sungmin. (and a guy named Jung-soo.)

Yay, the last day of the meme~ and I was forgetting again, lol.
I was glad the last day was such a good day! ♥

DAY EIGHT:
[x] Despite some problems with buses and public transport, I finally saw enys_luisa! ♥ We talked about a lot of things like ever, serious topics and less serious ones (she's the only one aside of kai_uke with whom I can talk about idols for HOURS). We sat in a cafè drinking hot chocolate (yeah, again, with cream and cacao powder ♥) and kept talking there until some boys next to us became so noisy that we almost had to shout to hear our voices. So we headed home~
[x] I bought a light pink soft scarf. It has Ai Otsuka's BUNNY on it, and it's almost the same color of the little hat with cat ears Anna gave me for my birthday! ♥
[x] Talking about everything with Italian Kat-tun fangirls is totally useless and tiring, really. It's like talking with a bunch of 10 years old backstreet boys fangirls... even if of course there are some exceptions. But Luisa decided to succor me and write in that community with me. And of course we made a couple-set of Pin banners, with Oscar Wilde's aphorism "The only thing men and women have in common, is that they both prefer the company of men". Aw, gay things make me happy~
[x] I already have some ideas for Christmas gift ♥

Whoa, finally ♥ I'm glad I did this thing, even if I kept forgetting it. It helped me finding the good in this weird period... ah, maybe I should keep on doing it. We'll see if I have to do it again. XD;
Tomorrow I'll post something stupid. Yeah. Maybe ♥

**EDIT Thu Dec 3 23:24:15 UTC 2009 **

Hey Everyone, we are about to run the last alter job that we need to on our database servers. This will effect userpics / scrapbook / vgift images for the next few hours. Have no fear, your images aren't lost, there is just a really intensive process running on the servers which store the information for mogilefs. Thank you for your understanding and all the LJ love...

Hey LJers,

I just wanted to let you all know that we are going to be performing some mogilefs maintenance over the next few days. We will be upgrading our current version to latest stable as well as changing some db config information to better handle the amount of files we are currently hosting. This shouldn't cause a big impact on site stability, but you may see some minor delays with userpic / scrapbook images appearing or other requests associated with our mogilefs. We would love to not have that happen, but unfortunately with some of the steps we need to take we have to cause a delay with images. I figured this was a better solution than taking down all of LiveJournal because well lets face it, we all need our daily LJ fix ;)

Thanks,

Seriously, there's really something good in this day? I don't know.
It should have been a good day, but stupid strikes blocked all the trains and I couldn't see enys_luisa. Plus I was blocked at home too, waiting for some laborers who had to fix my boiler, but in the end they didn't come, and I'm FREEZING. And. AnAn still hasn't arrived, and I'm starting to fear it got lost somewhere DDDD:
But it's not a negativity meme, right? I'll try anyway.

DAY SEVEN:
[x] My sister decided she doesn't know what to buy for my birthday, so when I said that I was looking for an emerald green dress, she decided it would be better to take me out for shopping, and that since she's much older than me and had worked for years, I shouldn't feel guilty. Yay ♥
[x] We usually drink tea in the late afternoon, at about six o'clock (because usually neither me nor my siblings are at home before that hour), but today I made hot chocolate, with some bits of cinnamon in it. I almost feel like a sort of confectioner-wanna-be in these days, since I'm not busy and I'm trying different things. The bad thing is that I shouldn't drink hot things with my health problems, the good thing is that I don't care at all~


These are really few things to be happy about, compared with all the crap.
One more day to go~

backpacking
Want to embrace your wanderlust on the cheap? If you're high on adventurous spirit, but low on funds, this community can help you plan a trip to anywhere. Offering plentiful tips on how to travel light, you can post about inexpensive hotels and youth hostels if you're into urban exploration or discuss camping gear and mosquito netting for the great outdoors. Hitch your backpack, pitch your tent, and carpe diem!

It scares me how much I am updating in these days, but I swear this is all this stupid meme's fault :D but two more days and it's over~ (Actually it was a good thing that I decided to do it. This way I managed to find all the good things in this period, and not only the crappy ones~)

DAY SIX:
[x] Today (the 30th, even if here in Italy it's already the 1st) was my birthday~ so I got spoiled a bit by my family :D we ate pizza and a fruit cake today, my brother bought me a pair of cooooool jeans, my sister said she still has to buy something because she worked the whole weekend and my dad insists on taking me out for shopping, even if he already bought me a cellphone a while ago (when my previous one died) and gave me some money and therefore I told him he doesn't need to. Aw. D:
[x] My fandom in pleasing me so much lately ♥♥♥♥♥ not only Gift (the three Kanjani8 single) is really WONDERFUL, Bandage sold more than 210.000 copies in one week even if it's a one-song single, Lands are releasing a new almost full album (with a ska song ♥♥♥) on January, not only that. BUT. NEW DRAMA FOR UCHI HEEEEEE 8DDD The Wallflower. This is going to be wonderful, especially because there's Tegoshi as Yukinojo too, and he's going to be dressed like a girl and doing A LOT of fanservice with Himechan and they're going to be so lesbian *___* and I don't even care there's Kame playing Kyohei, and that he's totally not fitting to the role.
[x] There's a new sushi bar in my not so big city (I live in a lil' city near Turin), and some people told my dad it's really delicious~ I'm trying to convince my bff to go there to celebrate my bday, but since she's determined to act like an old married woman and wanted to drink tea at her house with her boyfriend (who likes to talk about my PRIVATE life) I don't know when I'll be able to go there. But the fact that there's a good sushi bar at 10 minutes on foot from my home makes me happy! ♥

And then~ some pics! The quality is a little crappy, I took them with my cellphone - some of them with my old one, which hadn't that good camera, really.

( pics ♥ )

Enough rant for today ♥ and tomorrow Touchan-Luisa will be back yay! *_*

bookfails
Planning to do your part to help boost the declining publishing industry this holiday? Better check here first. Sure, there are plenty of folks who post glowing reviews of their favorite books. But what about the epic fails? Compose and/or discuss snarky, incisive critiques on the books you despise most.

foundphotos
Ever stumble across a frayed photo in your grandmother's attic? How about a faded picture tucked in the sleeve of an old novel at a used book sale? This is the place to post them. An amazing, eclectic collection of photographs sure to delight anyone with a penchant for history or nostalgic memorabilia.

note_to_cat
Having trouble conveying the concept of accountability to your cat? Now you can share letters to your significant felines and give public witness to your declarations of love and domestic negotiations. Whether you want to publish an apology for falling short on your cat-nip obligations or you need to raise a delicate hygiene issue.

Oh shit, I forgot to do the meme yesterday~
But well, Touchan enys_luisa forgot it too, so that's okay. I don't have much to write about yesterday, not because it was a bad day, but because on Sunday I always do NOTHING. I'll try~

DAY FIVE:
[x] I baked some sweets ♥ chocolate flavored ones. My family and my cousins appreciated them, even my brother who doesn't really like sweets ate four of them.
[x] I should have studied kanji, but I felt so lazy~ so I wrote a lot instead. A whole lot. And that damn fanfiction I'm writing scares me, it's already more than 11.000 words and it isn't even properly started yet.
[x] I made new layout/friendsonly banner/profile info! :D And a couple of minutes ago I finally put on them all~ It's not like I didn't like staring at Jin sticking his hand in his pants anymore, but I already have a poster hanging on my room 8D and I wanted to stare at something different (which is always Jin, why am I so mono-thematic? ;__;) Btw if you're reading this post on your friends-page, CHECK CHECK CHECK okuribi_dreams okuribi_dreams okuribi_dreams okuribi_dreams okuribi_dreams okuribi_dreams!! I'm not that good with graphics, but I assume that when a stupid man is born with that damned beauty, it can't be helped that a graphic will turn out well.

Later I'll do day six~ and post some pics, if laziness doesn't catch me again.
Bye ♥

Today was a good day! ♥ Actually, I got to know something not so pleasant a couple of minutes ago, but it didn't affect my day, so, it's kind of okay.

DAY FOUR:
[x] I ate at Nishikido with my friends today~ sushi and kake udon, which are similar to ramen! ♥ It was a good pre-birthday (because my actual birthday will be on monday, but I think I'll celebrate with my family). I received a lot of cuuuute things, and tomorrow I think I'll make a post full of pictures, because today I'm too tired to do so. I spent time with a lot of people, also friends that I haven't seen in ages, even if and had to take the train so early ç_ç
[x] I invited haruna_io at our new year's eve party, even if we still don't know where we'll be and doing what. And I'm so happy, even if she has known us for like... a week? She accepted. I love meeting new cute friends~
[x] My dad gave me some extra money this morning. And I'm stuck between spending them all buying stupid things and keeping them for future needs. Ahhh~ it's so true, money burn in my hands, I always HAVE to spend them D:
[x] IT'S ONLY A MONTH AND THREE FUCKING DAYS TILL THIS STUPID YEAR ENDS.

Not so many things today, but all of them were big good things, really ♥

The ones that are crossed out I already have plot bunnies for. G-NC-17 ideas accepted.
