Per aspera ad astra

From now on I am making my journal friends-only. Only the art entries will remain public, so, if you are interested not only in my photoshopped stuff, just leave a comment here to be added to my flist.

Since you all know I'm going quite far from home and I will have the possibility to get a perfume for a special sale only here (mum knows the right people who reduce the prices hehe!),  I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions!

I want to get something fresh (maybe even with a kind of tropic aroma). Now I'm using Jennifer Lopez' perfume Live, though it's not quite long lasting.

So, maybe you could suggest any brands that I would like? I'll be going to the mall to try perfumes anyway, but maybe you know anything that smells special :)? Like I said, I'd like to get something fresh.

I guess this was seen only to Europeans, but yesterday was an unusual moon eclipse. I've tryed to make pictures of it using my dad's cam. Since it was literally the third time I was holidng a camera the photos didn't end up being too good, but I wanted to share them anyway! I also took a few pictures of the day and night view out of the window. These photos ended up being quite interesting.


Apparently the camera was seeing something I didn't. Behind the cut you'll find out why.

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 friendslist (or friendsfriends, 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 Ten Wishes:

1. To find the bloody euros for my university.
   
2. A paid accont
3. Some sort of nice English or French mag to practice my reading (Lost mag, National Geographic, L'histoire, Elle or something of this sort)
   
4. Atonement on DVD, which probably isn't even out before Xmas
   
5. I'm hungry for books in French :), preferably readable ones.
   
6. Photoshop CS3
   
7. Postcards
8. Grey's anatomy Season 3 (or 4) to be aired around here.
   
9. To have some spare money for a hangout on winter holidays (which is impossible knowing how much I save to get money on exams). Oh, well...
