(As you can probably see I went a bit makeup crazy, I was trying a new technique. It worked on some of the icons but on others.. well it just didn't. There are also a couple I did a while ago that don't really belong in this batch but I stuck them in anyways. Enjoy! ^.^ )

Sorry about the quality of some of the caps, this video is especially hard to cap as there is so much movement constantly which led to a blurry kind of effect. If you have seen the video then you'll know what I mean. Also, in most of them, there is a couple of labels at the top, which hopefully won't interfere with the cap itself. If you have specific requests for a certain part, just let me know.

Here is an article that was in my local newspaper. I found this quite interesting, check it out girls! <3 :)

Men are always telling me not to generalize about them. But a startling new study shows that science is backing me up here.
Research published last week in the journal Nature reveals that women are genetically more complex thatn scientists ever imagined, while men remain the simple creatures they appear.
“Alas” said one of the authors of the study, Duke genome expert Dr. Huntington Willard, “genetically speaking, if you’ve met one man, you’ve met them all. WE are, I hate to say it, predictable. You can’t say that about women. Men and women are farther apart than we ever knew. It’s not Mars or Venus. It’s Mars or Venus, Pluto, Jupiter and who knows what other planets.”
Women are not only more different from men than we knew. Women are more different from each other than we knew – creatures of “infinite variety,” as Shakespeare wrote.
“We poor men only have 45 chromosomes to do our work with because our 46tyh is the pathetic Y that has only a few genes which operate below the waist and above the knees.” Dr. Willard observed. “In contrast, we now know that women have the full 46 chromosomes that they’re getting work from and the 46th is a second X that is working at levels greater than we know.”
Dr. Willard and his co-author, Laura Carrel, a molecular biologist at the Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, think that their discovery may help explain why the behaviour and the traits of men and women are so different; they may be hardwired in the brain, in addition to being hormonal or cultural.
So is Lawrence Summers right after all? “Only time will tell,” Dr. Willard laughs.
The researchers learned that a whopping 15 percent – 200 to 300 – of the genes on the second X chromosome in women, thought to be submissive and inert, lolling about on an evolutionary Victorian fainting couch, are active, giving women a significant increase in gene expression over men.
As the New York Times science reporter Nicholas Wade, who is writing a book about human evolution and genetics, explained it to me: “ Women are mosaics, one could even say chimeras, in the sense that they are made of two different kinds of cell. Whereas men are pure and uncomplicated, being made of just a single kind of cell throughout.”
This means men’s generalizations about women are correct, too. Women are inscrutable, changeable, crafty, idiosyncratic, a different species.
“Women’s chromosomes have more complexity, which men view as unpredictability,” said David Page, a molecular biologist and expert on sex evolution at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research in Cambridge, Mass.
Known as Mr. Y, Dr. P calls himself “the defender of the rotting Y chromosome.” He’s referring to studies showing that the Y chromosome has been shedding genes willy-nilly for millions of years and is now a fraction of the size of its partner, the X chromosome. “The Y married up,” he notes. “The X married down.”
Size matters, so some experts have suggested that in 10 million years or even much sooner – 100,000 years – men could disappear, taking Maxim magazine, March Madness and cold pizza in the morning with them. Dr. Page drolly conjures up a picture of the Y chromosome as “a slovenly beast,” sitting in his favourite armchair, surrounded by the litter of old fast-food takeout boxes.
“The Y wants to maintain himself but doesn’t know how,” he said. “He’s falling apart, like the guy who can’t manage to get a doctor’s appointment or can’t clean up the house or apartment unless his wife does it. I prefer to think of the Y as persevering and noble, not as the Rodney Dangerfield of the human genome.”
Dr. Page says the Y – a refuge throughout evolution for any gene that is good for males and/or bad for females – has become “a mirror, a metaphor, a blank slate on which you can write anything you want to think about males.” It has inspired cartoon gene maps that show the belching gene, the inability-to-remember-birthdays-and anniversaries gene, the selective-hearing-loss-“Huh” gene, the inability-to-express-affection-on-the-phone gene.
The discovery about women’s superior gene expression may answer the age-old question about why men have trouble expressing themselves: because their genes do.

Well this is the 3rd snow day in the past week. I'm getting tired of having nothing to do. We were supposed to have exams today too, and I really wanted to get them over with but there was too much snow this morning. Yesterday we had white out conditions because of the blizzard and the wind made drifts everywhere which makes it worse. Has anyone else had snow this bad in their city? I would love to see pictures.

I've been listening to Gwen Stefani's first solo single all night: What you waiting for. It rocks! She is multi-talented. You should all go check it out, ~~download it~~ or go to Yahoo Launch.

School has been ok lots of projects have been done, and I only have two big tests coming up but it's all good. Our girls' softball team are going to provincials this weekend, so we had a pep rally for them. Go girls! I'm going to see Shark Tale with soem friends on Sunday, shall be a good time. Speaking of movies, Sarah Michelle Gellar's new movie The Grudge is coming out October 22nd. Start saving kiddeies to raid your nearest theatre.

I have been making soem SMG and Eliza Dushku icons over the past few days. Also, made one AFI icon to date but I plan to make more soon, if only The Sims wasn't so damn addicting...

I got an autographed Out of your Mouth skateboard! (www.outofyourmouth.com)

I also got a new computer, and all of my stuff (icons, pictures, programs and brushes) are on my old one so hopefully I'll have some of it transfered this weekend. I have a lot of projects due in the upcoming weeks so I won't probably have time to actually make icons.

Mon, 06 Sep 2004 19:01:20 GMT

Well, it's back to school tomorrow. I have my clothes picked out and most of my bookbag packed. My new binder I bought doesn't fit in my bookbag so I'm going to have to use my old one. I don't mind though. I'm kind of nervous about starting grade 10, I only know 2 of my teachers. Some of my friends are starting high school this year though so it'll be even more fun!

I finally finished babysitting for the summer. I started at the end of June. I made more than $600 so I'm not complaining. ;) The kids were good kids anyways.

I went away with my family this weekend, and my boyfriend came. It was nice just having him with me instead of friends. We don't really spend enough time with just us two. He was supposed to go away with his family but they decided against it, so I asked him if he wanted to come with us. I was really happy he came.

I also piled wood today. For 2 hours. Good way to spend the last day of summer off. Heh. Tomorrow night hopefully I'll start making new icons for aficons. *crosses fingers*

Fri, 27 Aug 2004 16:24:25 GMT

I just wanted to leave a note saying I will get to all of the requests I had from various communities. I'm really sorry but I'm going away for the weekend and won't be able to do start the rest until Tuesday. Thank you for understanding. <3 :o)

Tue, 24 Aug 2004 17:41:54 GMT

Hello children. I've been absent for quite a while without the icon making stuff. If anyone has any requests, ask me so I have something to do! Goodbye. <3 ^.^

Last night I stayed at my best friend's house for her birthday party. There was only four of the girls who actually stayed. It was really fun hanging out with everyone, there were like 12 people there and it was just people who we all hang out with.

We stayed up until 4 o'clock in the morning just talking and reading Cosmo. It was fun! I like that it was only us four girls because we hardly get a chance to just all talk about our boyfriends and friends and stuff. It was a girl's night! We also ate a lot of oranges for some reason. lol We're weird. Surprisingly enough we all got up at 12, which is a miracle because one night I stayed at her house we didn't wake up until around 3. lol <3

Tue, 27 Jul 2004 00:41:50 GMT

Here is a poem I wrote about a dream I had a couple of mornings ago. lol I know it's not great, but hey, I wrote a poem! <3

I dreamt of you this morning,
I melt as you smile.
I dreamt of you this morning,
I held you for a little while.

I dreamt of you this morning,
the sound of your laugh is clear.
I dreamt of you this morning,
oh how special I feel when you are near.

I dreamt of you this morning,
but soon you were gone.
I dreamt of you this morning,
that to me only do you belong.

My family went to Fredericton today, I decided to stay home. Fredericton sucks anyways. I came back from vacation on Thursday, it was OK but it was only nice on Monday. These guys kept following Amanda and I around. I think they thought we liked them or something. Sorry losers. I got bit by a mosquito on my neck too, it looks like I have a huge pimple on my neck. :( I haven't seen my boyfriend since last Sunday and probably won't see him until Tuesday. It's really crappy. I miss being with him. My webcam won't work either... stupidgoddamnpieceofcrap. >_>
