4 things.

1) paper packages: My icon posts have been doing really well lately which has been lovely, but the latest batch did not do as well, so feeling a bit bleh about that. But then I'm stupid like that as I remind myself constantly =) However - thanks and hugs to prfctdaze who pimped paper_packages on her LJ today - much appreciated ♥ I also did an icon meme thing over there today.

2) harry potter: I'll just start by saying it's coffeejunkii's fault, okay? I've never been into the Harry Potter fandom and had only ever seen the first 3 films, but she posts a recap thing of dracolicious/boywholives regularly and for some reason unknown to me I've been reading it lately. Which then lead me to actually borrow all the Harry Potter films from my brother to watch, which I did this weekend. Idek. I enjoyed rewatching the first 2 films again and think they can stand alone without having read the books (which I haven't) but by the time I got to the 4th/5th I began to think a bit more background info was necessary - they seem to me as someone who'd not read any of the books to be quite disjointed. Still enjoyable though, but there was depth missing that I think you'd only get from knowing the complete story. And yeah, I know they can't pack the whole book into the film, but there were sections in those films I found just a little lacking. Anyways - I'm sort of hooked on reading her regular dracolicious/boywholives recaps. lol.

3) kawoosh/impala: I'm still getting emails/LJ messages from people about kawoosh/impala stuff like 'why hasn't my vid been listed yet/my website details need changing/etc'. I refer any of you to whom this applies to this post here. I am no longer involved and there's nothing I can do about your queries - you need to go to the site and use the contact forms to directly contact whoever is now taking care of all this. And that's not me. So please don't.

4) smart people: Finally, belated congratulations to aramley who proved just how awesome she is by getting a 2:1 from Oxford! Well deserved sweetie ♥

*hugs to all*

*hugs* I was more than happy to share the icon goodness of paper_packages with my friends list :) Pretty icons just put me in such a good mood. And yours are gorgeous!

I'm looking forward to the new Harry Potter film, but I'll wait until the mad rush is over before I see it. It's entertaining but I haven't gotten into HP fanfiction or anything. Too many fandoms, not enough time ^_^

I definitely won't be getting into HP fanfic - I have enough time (barely) for all the Merlin fic I read and that's it, that keeps me happy enough =)

Thanks again for the pimpage, it was a wonderful surprise ♥
