week 32 [seasons];

Mon, 04 Dec 2006 07:44:06 GMT

This week's word theme will be seasons; being spring, summer, autumn and winter.

The lyrical theme for this week is

I miss you, who has left just before
the sudden cold wind at the end of summer.
Even though the city has changed in colours and shape,
I stay the same as I was that day.

You’re probably looking at the sky as I’m now?
I don’t want to spend even a second without you.

Not able to throw away even the picture of our room,
I think of the days that I couldn’t return to.

How many more times should I cry;
How much more must I regret;
How much more do I need to suffer,
Before I can get you back?
I cannot tell.

Without fulfilling the oath we made with each others,
our wishes fades away in vain;
but I can’t forget, I can’t let go of everything,
the words of love you spoke to me:
I love you.
I want to meet you soon.
The love of the past that cannot return.

There is nothing that make me more glad than
to know that you are laughing somewhere now.
But the fact that I cannot see that smile,
is too heartbreaking that I cannot concentrate on anything.

No matter how many more times I cry;
No matter how much more I regret;
No matter how much more I suffer,
You still will not return.
I know.

The nights I fall asleep feeling the warmth are
too short, and slips away in the blink of an eye;
however, even if I close my eyes in utter exahustion,
nights without you are too long.
This love that has turned into a memory
keeps coming to my mind over and over again.

Echos of the sound of the clock in the room
burns painfully.

The nights I fall asleep feeling the warmth are
too short, and slips away in the blink of an eye;
however, even if I close my eyes in utter exahustion,
nights without you are too long.

Without fulfilling the oath we made with each others,
our wishes fades away in vain;
but I can’t forget, I can’t let go of everything,
the words of love you spoke to me:
I love you.
I want to meet you soon.
The love of the past that cannot return.

This love that has turned into a memory
keeps coming to my mind over and over again.

The love of the past that cannot return.

week 31 [shonen];

Sat, 18 Nov 2006 20:59:19 GMT

This week your word theme is Shonen. For the word theme, you must use an image from a shonen anime/manga. If you don't know what shonen (sometimes spelt 'shounen') is, it's a term used for anime/manga oriented towards boys, like in the magazine Shonen Jump. Generally, the storylines focus more on values like courage and kindness, and less on relationships. Some famous titles are Naruto, Shaman King, Yu-Gi-Oh! and One Piece, but you don't have to make icons from those series in particular. Questions? Just comment ^^

Your lyrical theme is

If we still have time, we might still get by
Every time I think about it I want to cry
With bombs and the devil
Little kids keep coming
No way to breathe easy, no time to be young

But I tell myself that I was doing alright
There's nothing left to do tonight but go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

My love is the evening breeze touching your skin
The gentle sweet singing of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early light
And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine
My love, the pleasure's mine
Let me go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

Wild man's world is crying in pain
what you gonna do when everybody's insane
So afraid of one who's so afraid of you
What you gonna do, oh

Crazy on you, crazy on you, let me go crazy, crazy on you

I was a willow last night in my dream
I bent down over a clear running stream
I sang you the song that I heard up above
And you kept me alive with your sweet, flowing love

Crazy, yeah, crazy on you
Let me go crazy crazy on you...

- Submissions should look like this:

URL: http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g10/aramanth_/kinoshita/kinoshita-trickery.png
Character/Series: Loki from Mantantei Loki Ragnarok

Mon, 06 Nov 2006 11:08:53 GMT

This week's word theme will be a moment, which, as usual, can be interpreted any way you want. You can just write those words on your icon, or anyway you like. :D

The lyrical theme for this week is

I love you and your tangled dress
And going where the music says
I pray this love song never ends

'Cause when we spin like this
I know where heaven is
Right here in the moment that we're in
Love happens when we get this close
Whatever happens, don't let go

I want to be there
When you dance
When you laugh
When you cry
For the rest of our lives
I want to be there
In your arms
In your world
In your heart
Wherever you are
I want to be there

Every night's like a New Year's Eve
Every day that you're here with me
Every touch is a cause for celebration

I want to be your birthday kiss
I want to be your every wish
I want to be your strongest temptation
Through all the years that go by
You'll find me right here by your side

I want to be there
When you dance
When you laugh
When you cry
For the rest of our lives
I want to be there
In your arms
In your world
In your heart
Wherever you are
I want to be there

I want to be there
When you dance
When you laugh
When you cry
For the rest of our lives
I want to be there
In your arms
In your world
In your heart
Wherever you are
I want to be there

When you laugh and when you cry
For the rest of our lives

I want to be there
I want to be there
In the good times
And in the bad times too, baby
I want to be there
I want to be there
'Till the end of time with you now
When you laugh and when you cry baby
For the rest of our lives

Mon, 06 Nov 2006 05:15:38 GMT

So hay guys 8)

I feel it's time to do some clean up around here, and I mean in the banner department ^^; So, there's two things I need to address:

- I'd like to ask for some new bannermakers! This way people will have to do banners less often on the rotation, and we have more back up if someone can't do their week. So if you would like to make banners, please comment to this post and I'll add you to the list :) Any help you could offer would be very much appreciated!

- If you have won and are missing banners from previous weeks, please go to cb_overflow. They will be happy to do any you are missing ^^

Thanks! I look forward to more successful weeks of icons :D
