Expressive enough?

annabtgI hate that distinctive sign of womanhood. It so ruins my mood. ("Blah" is just the word for it.)
I need to study - I didn't study at all yesterday. Two hours of Adv. Maths class first thing in the morning, a three-hour Adv. Physics exam afterwards (and all that while suffering a terrible headache), then one hour of helping my brother with his own Adv. Maths homework... a girl can only take too much on a Saturday.
But since today I'm in a "blah" mood, the Adv. Maths books and notebooks are sitting open in front of me and I just can't bring myself to even look at them. Such a shame, I've gotten to really enjoying this subject.
I was looking for something that doesn't require much concentration to do - reading or writing fic, unfortunately, do not fall in that category :( But then I remembered that I still wasn't 100% satisfied with the layout of this LJ... So first I went hunting for an icon. I wanted something earthly - for some reason, I want this LJ to have an earthly look. I had envisioned something like a brown leaf on a pale green background, but had no clue as to where to look for something like that. (Any ideas?) So I searched for L&C icons instead (I already had one but it was blue/purple, didn't really match) and found this one on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
followtomorrow, BanAnna's graphics journal - isn't it great?
Afterwards, I worked on the title - for some reason, the word 'expression' was stuck on my mind and I wanted it in there. I think it expresses me *grins*. Then I searched for a nice layout that would come with an earthly colour combination like I wanted it - and found this one I'm very satisfied with :) The moodtheme was much harder; I found several nice ones but not *THE* one. I ended up with those foxies, though, they quite match and they're cute :))
Now that I'm done with the basics, I might try changing some of the other stuff - titles for the pages and the like. Then again, as I've said before, I suck at titles, so maybe I'll just stick with the default options. I just hope that the blah-ness will wear off soon, because I'd hate to have my Sunday go to waste.
See ya,
Anna.
