100 Quotes [1/10]

Sunday, June 3, 2012 by Tse Moana Leave a Comment

First installment of the second 100 Things… series: 100 quotes that I find inspirational. Quotes gathered from all over the place, graphics made by me, inspired by minimalism.

 

Never fear shadows, they simply mean there's a light nearby

 

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen

 

There are no foolish questions and no man becomes a fool until he has stopped asking questions

 

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends, they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers

 

The only way out is through

 

Get mad, then get over it

 

Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional

 

A positive attitude will not solve everything, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

 

Time spent with cats is never wasted

 

I keep six serving men, they taught me all I know. Their names are what and why and when and how and where and who

Organise, Organise, Organise

Sunday, July 18, 2010 by Tse Moana 4 Comments

Spent the day at the parents, and before I left again after dinner I headed up to use their scales (I don’t have one). While I’m keeping the magic numbers to myself for a while longer, I can say that I have now lost 5.2 kilos (11.4 lbs) since starting my no/low carb eating habits (which was roughly June 10). Not bad for a little over a month 🙂 Mom’s been saying she can see it for two weeks now, but I’m just now slowly noticing some of it. The pants I’m wearing now, for example, are looser than they were before. Yay!

Dad picked me up this morning. Before we left, he attached the holders for the strawberry planter so I now have a pretty planter on the wall! He also attached a wood peg thing I have, originally designed to hold mugs, to my bedroom wall. I’ve wanted it there for a while now so I can use it to hang my collection of bags on so they’re no longer strewn about the floor. In my house, there’s a place for everything. I’m not very good at always returning things to their particular place, but there is always a designated area or location where it is stored.

I also had Dad move a hook from the hallway to the bedroom to hang my clothes on when I get ready for bed. The chair I used for it is getting in the way so this should eliminate the problem. And since the hook offers less space than the chair did, it’ll force me to look more closely at what I choose to wear on a given day so as not to create a pile of barely-used clothes; too used to put back in the closet and too clean to wash; bigger than the hook can hold.

My house in general could also do with a good re-organise and clean. What with the warm weather of the last two weeks I barely got anything done. I take heat very badly. However, now the weather has turned and since Nienke is working tomorrow I have no-one to distract me. I’m hoping I can get myself to do at least some of the organising/cleaning. Definitely a vacuuming of the house, there’s cat hair and leafy bits everywhere (and sawdust in the bedroom :D).

To get myself in the right set of mind I’m currently re-organising my fonts. I’m a moderate fontaholic, with a collection of just around 1600 or so fonts, but I don’t use most of ’em. Therefore, I’m throwing away a lot of them, and am taking an especially good look to weed those that look too much like others.

And to close on a slightly more gross note: My toe is almost completely healed. Today the piece of old skin that was still attached let go to reveal gloriously pink new skin underneath. Just a few more bits right in the bendy part of the toe still need to let go, but then it’s all good. So, all in all, it’s taken two weeks to heal.

Icons v.2

Sunday, May 16, 2010 by Tse Moana Leave a Comment

As per #36 on my 101 list, I went around my house today and shot pictures to use in making new icons. I decided to go for simple macro type shots of things in my house. This contrasts nicely with my previous batch of icons, which were more graphic things and all designed in such a way that they looked like pencil sketches. You can see them here.

The new ones worked out surprisingly well, even though I will probably replace them again at some point in the future 😀

Here’s all 15 of em:

101
101: The icon for my 101 list, for no particular reason really, I just thought it was pretty. And if I get with cat-centric posts I’ll probably use this too.
Create: For when I talk about stuff I made, it’s a painting I did.
Default: Default userpic, my hand
Genex: For talking about gender, sexuality, general LGBTQness and Fan Fiction :D, it’s Star Trek’s Benjamin Sisko locked in a tight embrace with Data
Inside: Stuff about my house, and other indoor things, it’s some decorative glass things with a portrait of me and my parents in the background.


Life: General ramblings about my life, it’s my collection of necklaces and my tie.
Listen: My pile of Omnia CDs, for when I wanna talk about things I listened too, music, but also spoken word or whatnot.
Me: Myself in the mirror
Outside:
One of my new plants of this year, for garden talk and other out-and-about things.
Pagan: My other hand, for pagan and other spirituality/religion/mythology stuff


People: A tiny anatomical doll I have, it’s for posts about other people, be they friends, family or strangers.
Quote: A shot of Shakespeare’s Romeoo & Juliet, just after the bit where Romeo exclaims “What light through yonder window breaks”, and to be used for when I want to share some quotes or other lines of text that inspire me or maybe make me think, or laugh or sad etc..
Read: Some of my books. This happens to be my shelf of pagan related books, but I wanted something colourful and not piled (since I tend to pile my books)
Watch: A close-up of my bust of Star Trek: The Next Generation’s Jean-Luc Picard as Locutus of Borg. It’s for posts about things I’ve watched: movies, TV shows etc…
Write: And the last one is my laptop’s keyboard and used for post about writing.

Icons

Thursday, February 26, 2009 by Tse Moana Leave a Comment

I made a bunch of icons the other day to use on the LJ and I figured I might as well show them off. Some of them might not be used all that often 🙂

Please don’t take and use these, I made them myself for use by myself.

 

 

*something went wonky with the image links, can’t be arsed to fix that now*
