Let's play the memory game

azuriteOkay, so it's Saturday and I'm finally getting to work on everything that has nothing to do with school.
1 - Tweaked my LiveJournal layout. It looks pretty good, except I can't get my header image to be in the right position, so the entry layer isn't OVER it. Mamono might be able to help me with this.
2 - Downloaded Dodo's Mail PHP script, and edited it for BEA's Nomination Form. Created that page, and a thank you page, but I still have to make an Affiliates Application, and then link to both of those pages from the main page.
3 - I'm trying to update BEA to the layout Mamono made, but I'm having a few problems... a) I had an idea in mind for the version title, but now I can't remember what it was! It had something to do with either singing, dancing, karaoke, or romance. @_O Help? b) I'm not sure if the background will work on all resolutions, so I have to consider making a new one. I might need to tweak the CSS as well-- which is Mamono's forté!
On the whole naming note, I had two possibilities that just sprang to mind:
* "Dance Dance, I can't control it" - from Thalia's "Dance Dance" (The Mexican)
* "Dance like no one's watching/love as though you've never been hurt before/sing as though no one can hear you/live as though heaven is on earth" - from Souza
4 - On the name game, I was SOOO close to naming the Hot Gimmick fanfiction archive I'm starting up. All I remember was that it was about 3 words long (4-5 at the most), and one of those words was Love/Loving/Loved, or some variation thereof. Can anyone take a stab at it and help me remember what it was? I can tell you from the get-go, it was not "Neighbors in Love."
Your Astrological Food Personality -- What's Your Flavor?
Here's some food for thought: Now that you've answered many revealing questions about yourself, it's time to discover which Element controls your appetite! Regardless of what your Sun Sign is, you probably display an assortment of influences based on how the four astrological Elements configure themselves in your chart. Most people feel the effect of one or two Elements in their lives; figuring out which ones rule over your food preferences can help you understand and manage your cravings!
Note: Scores are rounded to one decimal place and therefore may not total 100%
You scored 46.2% Soothing Water
Because of your Watery nature, food and emotions are often tied together for you. Chances are, you have some Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces in your birth chart because you're sensitive, compassionate and romantic. You're very aware of a food's texture and aroma -- the mere smell of freshly baked cookies can instantly take you back to your childhood. You crave comfort foods -- soft bread, macaroni and cheese, tomato soup, grilled cheese sandwiches, meatloaf, peanut butter and ice cream. You show affection by sharing your favorite foods with loved ones, and you find comfort in these same foods when you're down. From time to time, though, you might want to consider why you're drawn to certain foods -- keeping track of these feelings could help you better understand what the larger issues are.
You scored 30.8% Hot and Spicy Fire
Fire energy is what revs up your appetite -- there's a good chance that you have Aries, Leo or Sagittarius in your birth chart. People often describe you as passionate, lively and courageous, so it's no surprise that you favor foods that are a bit daring! You gravitate toward spicy dishes and distinct flavors -- you have no fear of wasabi, chili and cayenne peppers, ginger or garlic! Bland pastas and unseasoned rice dishes bore you to tears, and if you're in charge of selecting a restaurant, you're likely to pick something exotic and unexpected -- Ethiopian, Thai, Caribbean and Cajun are possibilities. You'll try anything once! However, don't be afraid of comfort foods; everybody needs to relax with a cozy bowl of chicken noodle soup from time to time. Think of it as a playful nod to your childhood!
You scored 23.1% Light as Air
Refreshing Air energy stimulates your hunger; the probability that you have Gemini, Libra or Aquarius in your birth chart is high. You like meals that are light, quick and easy to take with you on the run. You're a "label looker": You like to analyze the nutritional, fat, fiber and caloric content of your food. Fruits and vegetables appeal to you because they're healthy, delicious and portable. Energy bars, smoothies, wraps, nuts, prepackaged bags of pretzels or trail mix and pita sandwiches are probably some of your other standbys. You aren't likely to indulge in long, languid dinners unless you're surrounded by your favorite conversationalists. While it's admirable that you like to make educated choices about the food you consume, you may be missing out if you always pass up the crème brulee!
You scored 0% Earthly Pleasures
You approach food in an Earthly way -- you revel in it, treating it as a sensual experience. Most likely, you have some Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn in your birth chart. Although you're practical and grounded, you have an appreciation for the finer things in life, and you don't feel guilty indulging your passions when the mood strikes! Sumptuous, rich foods entice you: Filet mignon, creamy fettuccine alfredo, cheesecake, chocolate mousse, truffles and imported cheeses are probably among your favorites. You tend to frequent expensive restaurants that make dining a luxurious experience -- no fast food for you! Still, you could stand to branch out a bit every now and then; lighter foods such as sushi, stir-fry dishes and sorbet are just as tempting, and you won't even need that after-dinner nap!
Mmm, yummy!
I can't help it. I'm in a mooshy mood. I better go to sleep on it and then wake up and tackle the moosh that is WDKY16.
Your Dream Wedding Quiz -- What's Your Bridal Style?
Now that you've answered some telling questions about your preferences, it's time to discover which Element rules your wedding style! Regardless of what your Sun Sign is, you most likely display an assortment of energies based on how the four astrological Elements fall in your birth chart. Most people feel the influence of one or two Elements in their lives; figuring out which ones rules over your personality can help explain why you must have an extravagant Cinderella-style wedding or casual barbecue-on-the-beach celebration! Remember, it's your day, so make your wedding fantasies come to life!
Note: Scores are rounded to one decimal place and therefore may not total 100%
You scored 38.5% Elegant Earth
Since you most likely favor cashmere sweaters, little black dresses and diamond stud earrings, it's not surprising that your dream wedding is a classy, timeless affair. Hollywood brides who get married in teeny bikinis leave you cold; elegant style icons such as Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy inspire you. Given your affinity for tradition, you probably have some Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn in your birth chart. Although you have a penchant for rich flavors, luxurious fabrics and designer labels, you splurge only on things of lasting value and high quality. Your guests appreciate your meticulous attention to detail -- little touches such as artfully arranged welcome baskets, organized pre- and post-wedding activities and thoughtful wedding favors ensure a seamless, well-executed celebration that everyone will remember for years to come. A bonus: When you and your husband look at your wedding photos twenty years down the line, you'll be glad you didn't succumb to trendy hairstyles and fashions!
You scored 30.8% Warm-hearted Water
You've been dreaming of your wedding day since you were a little girl, and you probably have notebooks full of sketches of your perfect wedding gown! Your wedding day is the most romantic day of your life, and you want it to be a magical, fairy-tale experience. Because you probably have some Water Signs in your birth chart (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces), you view your wedding in dreamy, emotional terms. Make sure to invest in a good waterproof mascara! Family is very important to you, so you'll probably go out of your way to include them in your wedding preparations. To create the intimate, loving ambiance that's so important to you, incorporate special family traditions into your ceremony, whether that means wearing your mother's veil, having both families light a unity candle or serving the same wine that your grandparents had at their wedding. Who says fairy tales can't come true?
You scored 23.1% Refreshing Air
As someone with Air Energy in your birth chart (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius), you eschew tradition and favor putting your own unique mark on your wedding. Your wedding day isn't about the details -- you couldn’t care less if the icing on your wedding cake matches the color of the napkins -- but about the love you are celebrating. You don't have a specific vision of how the day will look, but you know that you want the event to be relaxed and casual. Expressing your personality is important to you; whether it's having your brother and best male friends serve as your "bridesmaids," writing your own vows and choosing your favorite poems to be read or giving your bouquet to the longest-married couple in lieu of the traditional toss to the single women, you show that you aren't afraid to be yourself. Your innovative wedding is sure to be memorable, and may even start some new trends!
You scored 7.7% Fun-loving Fire
In your mind, your wedding day is the one time that you can be truly self-indulgent without feeling guilty -- after all, the whole day is really about you! As someone who most likely has some Fire Signs in her chart (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius), you crave attention and excitement, so it's perfectly natural that you fantasize about the "oohs" and "ahhs" that your guests will utter as you glide down the aisle, looking the most gorgeous and happy that you've ever looked. However, you are just as focused on making sure that everyone has a great time, as well. Your generous nature inspires you to go the extra mile for your guests, whether it's making sure there's a vegan meal for your cousin or bringing some small trinkets to amuse and relax the nervous flower girl. So wear that revealing gown and make a long-winded toast to your groom -- the spotlight is all yours, and you've earned it!
Here comes the bride...
There's much more to be done, but it's lunchtime and I'm feeling a combination of both restless and tired. I may just take a nap and then conquer the world when I wake up. X_X I don't feel so hot...
Mamono, where are you!?
