(no subject)
Meme updates, since I have nothing significant to update with from anything else. Except that the friend of the family's that we spent Thanksgiving with sent us home with a BUNCH of food including some off-the-shelf stuff, and these little cherry cordial-flavored cakes are the best things ever. Seriously guys, I'm in love.
Anyway! Memes.
Ten Day Meme
Day One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now. BUT PROBABLY NEVER WILL.

Day Six: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever)
Day Seven: Four turn offs.
Day Eight: Three turn ons.
Day Nine: Two images that describe your life right now, and why.
Day Ten: One confession.
1. I've technically been drawing since before kindergarten. However, my current style didn't come into being until about 1999-2000, when I made a concentrated effort to change it.
2. MY NAME IS A DISEEEEAAAASE. Sort of XD My first name is the type of yeast that pops up in infections, and my last name is attached to a corrosive disorder of the esophagus.
3. I've been online since 1999. My DA has been active since 2003, and my LJ has been active since 2004. My first ever username? "IzzyIzumiDigiD" used to sign in to AOL 3.0.
4. "CBIzumi" has also been in use as an alias of mine since 1999. Anyone have a guess to which Digimon character is my favorite? There's only one main site I use it on though, and that's my DA. It was a username once, became a character, then was used when I signed up there. I've never used it for AIM, and it was a brief e-mail for a while before I used something else. ChocolatePhantom, Roll Soul no kidding and GuardianGiro are more common usernames of mine.
5. My original LJ username was "kuna_emie". "Kuna" was off a username I had on a forum for a brief time, and "Emie" (pronounced like Emmy) was the name of an old Code Lyoko OC I'd already stopped using by then. I got a name change to "roll_soul" a year ago, after my username at REO (which also has more meaning behind that, but that's another meme).
6. Speaking of REO, that's my homepage. Lot of good memories there.
7. Ever since I was brought home from the hospital, there hasn't been a single day of my life where I've been without cat. From Munchie to Benny to Smokie, I've always had one or more cats there, only to change when Smokie finally goes (but likely not for long).
8. I've got an unusual memory. I don't know if you'd call it a good one or not, but I have a weird tendency to remember conversations, things I've typed, and especially pictures from YEARS ago.
9. I can't drive.
Step One
☆ Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered ... whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
☆ If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
☆ Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ so that the holiday joy will spread.
Step Two
☆ Surf around your friends list (or friends' friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
☆ If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just... wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
My Wishlist:
1. A picture of one of my OCs, or my renditions of canon characters (like Rock or Forte)... You know what, people filling this one should just go to my DA, close their eyes and point, and draw who they see. XDXD
2. Icons. You guys know my fandoms. ;P
3. Music mp3s (ask)
4. Tangled tickets >_> *shot*
5. Commissions.
6. Tickets to California-- *shot again*
7. Linkin Park's "Under a Thousand Suns" (in CD or individual mp3 form)
8. Rockman.EXE movie DVD
9. 2006.
10. A fine chain for necklaces. I have two pendants but only one chain, so I could use a second one so I can actually wear the other sometimes.
Gah making this wishlist was haaarrrd I hate making wishlists ;;
