Ganked from my flist:

Post ten of any pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.

NO CAPTIONS!!! It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.

They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.

You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.

( images behind cut are not safe for work and are not dial up friendly )

Going away spur of the moment. Be back early next week. I'll only be checking my e-mail, so you can reach me there.

After posting, continue the game by posting your own five keywords and tagging five or more! others to play.

( It is important that you do not read the keywords before recording your voice post! )

Tagging: bradcpu, beccatoria, millylicious, obsessive24, and projectjulie (I don't know what LJ name you use now, but it's j_l_r, you know who are.).

I faced reality and sent an e-mail to VividCon registration saying that I won't be able to attend this year. I'm bummed out because I'd been looking forward to it, but it's not possible right now. Blerg.

COOL ASS NINJA VID REC:
balistik94's Onslaught (Ninja Scroll vs. Afro Samurai Resurrection) - Detailed editing that is so detailed that there's no room for anything else with all the amazing use of movements and the motion, especially in the second half. Dude, Bill is a vidding ninja.

The FNVA vidding tournament needs 3 more entrants to make it a pool of 32, so at least consider entering. :)

Civilization by Marco Brambilla

"Civilization, a video mural created for the new Standard hotel in New York City, depicts a journey from hell to heaven interpreted through modern film language using computer-enhanced found footage. This epic video mural contains over 300 individual channels of looped video blended into a multi-layered seamless tableau of interconnecting images that illustrate a contemporary, satirical take on the concepts of Heaven and Hell."

The universe doesn't want me to go to VVC. I'm convinced of this. I'm nearly broke from all the hospital bills I've been getting. My dad said that the insurance company is going to pay me back for everything once the claim is settled, but in the meantime I have no money. I'm getting worried because I got three more bills in the mail this week. I thought I'd finished getting billed, but there are still more coming. It makes my head want to explode. I've talked to so many people at the hospital, in the billing department, and so on. They did something to cut my bills down, but it's still so much. I'm starting to think I'm not on my dad's second insurance and he's stalling me. The primary insurance paid out, but the second one that he got just in case hasn't. I keep asking my dad about it, but he never wants to talk and dances around it, which makes me think I'm screwed. I've been making my plans for Chicago and VVC, but it's feeling financially irresponsible to go on a trip when I'm not sure I'll have the money. But I didn't get to go last year and I really want to go. I'll face reality next week. If the insurance company pays out, then I'll get to go, but I can't go if I'm broke. Would sacrificing a goat help?

I've made a vow to cease with the personal posts, so you are saved from reading about my wreck of a personal life and how awful my job is. However, you are not saved from memes.
