Time will kiss the world goodbye

[Error: unknown template qotd]Automotive Engineering with Motorsport; it was just Automotive Engineering til this year when I swapped over the the Motorsport pathway point because the modules looked more interesting~ Though most of the modules are the same in both ^^' Last term I ended up taking Motorsport Technology instead of Thermodynamics, which was great since a) I really don't like (and am not that good at) thermo, and b) I got to go on the Cruden Racing Car simulator that we have at uni and learnt how to use some software called Pi Toolbox, which was pretty cool! This term I'll be taking Aerodynamics and Engine Design instead of Manufacturing Strategy; I'm not entirely sure what Manufacturing Strategy entails but apparently it's a management module so getting to do Aero and Engines is definitely preferable! 

I hope I'll get to use it for my career! It's not looking so great at the moment though with how my jobhunting's been going but I'm still sending applications everywhere; hopefully I'll get something positive back soon!

On another note, YAY my final year project might actually finally be going somewhere!
But that's a rant for another time.

The Secret's in the Soup

Disclaimer: I don’t own Hetalia.

Prompt: England taking care of Prussia (cooking) while Prussia's sick.

Heart in his throat, Prussia jerked awake with a scowl as he attempted to locate the grating sound that had pulled him from his rest. He glanced around the room – England’s bedroom, if he wasn’t mistaken - blearily but couldn't see his mobile anywhere.

( ...Maybe England and West had a point about how annoying the ringtone was... )

(Yup, it's a Sengoku Basara one~ I found it on tumblr somewhere though so I don't have a link to the original source >.>)

It's funny, I just changed my wallpaper fairly recently; if this had come up a week ago you'd get to see the pretty No.6 one I'd been using... Anyway,this is what I changed it to =3


Info on the rainmeter skins I used can be found here~

In other news~

( Rambling Alert! )

More from me later when I can be bothered~ ^^/

Ever since I got into Tiger & Bunny, I've been wanting to try making their PDA 'Call' bracelet things. I finally got around to making a Wild Tiger one for whitewings9 during Freshers Week!

The pictures are a little blurry unfortunately, but I'm planning on making some more so hopefully I'll have some better pictures soon!


I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out ^^ I think it needs to be a bit wider though, so I need to play around with the pattern a bit.

Also posted to dArt~ Check out my crafts folder ^^b

A Denmark/Norway slideshow, to Dine Øjne by Jon Nørgaard.

Credits are at the end of the video, though to clarify;
I do not own Axis Powers Hetalia, the song Dine Øjne or any of the pictures used.



In the translation I've got 'There are no other guys' instead of 'girls' as it's more appropriate for this video ^^'

Thank you for viewing!

(If you can’t tell from the title, I ended up watching The Kings Speech again after writing this while packing my room XD <3 )

( Ah man, it's been a pretty crazy few weeks! )

It’s all sorted now though, thank god! Wish me luck on the driving test, it’s coming up pretty soon! >.<

Other than that, most days have been pretty tame in that I’ll get up, do some stuff around the house and maybe write a bit and make lunch and dinner. Dinner’ll be packed up to take to the LRC so that I can go online and I’ll get back and call home before maybe playing some Phoenix Wright or Minecraft…

This week I did venture out into London twice.

( The first was to go into central to see the Royal Academy of Music’s museum and the Sherlock Holmes museum. (Image Heavy D= ) )

( The day after I was back on the bus to Queensbury again (at rush hour lol) but this time it was because I was going to visit and Aunt. She always pinches me when she sees me because I’ve been in Hatfield so long and not been to see her yet ^^; )

After that, I’ve pretty much just been trying to pack all of my stuff ready for when I move out on Tuesday. Well, that and writing lol.

I’m not doing too badly progress wise; to put it in the form of a list…

~Fluffathon Prompts – I’m taking part in the aph_fluffathon this year, and have ideas for both prompts that I have. I’ve only started writing one of them so far, but I have a rough outline to follow for both.

~KnightAndPirate Summer Contest – Ironically enough, I am having a little trouble with this one XD I’ve had plot bunnies which have then grown out of control and probably won’t be used for it. I dunno; there’s one on the back burner that I have to tinker with a bit to see if it’ll fit the theme or go off on a tangent but my original plot bunny won’t work for it anymore ^^;

~INoFt – Track Four – I was supposed to leave this alone for a bit while I work on stuff that has deadlines but this fic just kind of writes itself and I couldn’t resist, so I have started writing it regardless. Oops. Anyway, it’s a chapter I’ve been wanting to write for a while, so hopefully if I take a little more time on it it’ll turn out for the better?

~5xCaptain Kirkland – I’m working on this one too~ I know what needs to be written but it’s taking a little while to come out the way I want it to, so this one may take a tad longer than usual to get out. Though I suppose it depends on if I can get my arse into gear once I’ve moved back home.

~Music Meme – I’m going to work on this more when I move home
cause there’s some stuff I need to look up, but again the next one from this is pretty much planned out and I need to look up some details before I can really crack on with it.

There’s a bunch of other stuff I need to work ok as well, like trying to pick BoaF and AiaDW up again, but the stuff listed above are my main priorities at the moment methinks.

Unless I’ve managed to forget something.

Which, considering this is me, is entirely possible.

Oh wells, back to packing! And then lunch/dinner so I can actually get to the LRC and post this XD

Halcyon Days [FF.NET]

Disclaimer: I do not own Axis Powers Hetalia.

Summary: Japan sighs fondly; if he were anyone else he’d be rolling his eyes in exasperation by now but he can’t help the amusement he feels at the situation. Written for love_and_tea 's summer spree~

In Need Of Fine Tuning [FF.NET]

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters in Axis Powers Hetalia, nor do I own Nodame Cantabile, from which this was inspired.

Summary: When Arthur woke in a room that was definitely not his own he was struck by two thoughts - one, that he’d never heard the flute solo from Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloe played quite like that before; and two, how on Earth could anyone live in such a pigsty?

( When Gilbert heard the doorbell go off later that evening, he certainly hadn’t expected his visitor to be the Kirkland kid. )

 5: Bruises - Chairlift

Disclaimer: I do not own Axis Powers Hetalia

Summary: “Really, I have no idea how you managed to get into a bet with two ten year olds about headstands of all things.” “Actually, I think you’ll find we started out with handstands. They upped the stakes.”


( England sighed, stuck somewhere between amused and exasperated. He supposed he shouldn’t be particularly surprised considering the company he was keeping though. )
