EPIC BENDING!
Me (and a lot of other people) when Korra first started:Well this is great but where’s all the epic bending like in Avatar? Pro-bending…pfft.
warning: ep. 8 gifs below
So this is what happens when I shower and don’t wash/condition my hair, and then go to be with it damp. Why am I even sharing this? O_o
This is my LOK original character.
She is a swamp bender. Her hairstyle is inspired by Tahno and because I don’t like to draw eyes. Instead of leaves, I imagine that swamp people in Korra’s time would have more regular clothes…and pants. But I liked the idea of having some green in the color scheme. Regular water bender blue is so boring:P
She has no name yet. Any suggestions?
my life
During school year: “Ugggg I miss sleep. I never appreciated it enough before. I would give anything to be able to go to bed at a decent hour and not have to study! I’m sooooo tired aahhhhhh!!!”
Summer: “Sleep? What is that?” *listens to music and stays on tumblr until 2 am*

My tumblr accent challenge. In which I say “umm” like a million times -_-
Diatom art
Back in the Victorian times, microscopists would select certain diatoms under the microscope, then move them about on the slide with a single human hair mounted on a wooden shaft. Imagination ran riot and they created geometric designs, pretty scenes and cartoons before cementing them in place.
This is so amazing. If I lived in victorian times, this is what I would be doing. I would love to be doing this now actually…I just can’t believe these images are composed of living (or once living) organisms. It makes me appreciate Diatoms even more for inspiring such creativity.
When I imagined a music video for this song, I did not picture this. It’s like they filmed it on the set of The Woman In Black. I am not sure how creepy toys fit with the theme or mood of this song, but it’s kind of awesome.
That bear…O_O
I hate it when
I stay up late trying to sort my characters in my made up imaginary world into zodiac signs that match their personalities.
note: I don’t actually believe in zodiac signs, I just think they’re interesting and I wanted my characters’ birthdays to have some thought behind them.
Interesting fact about Daphnia
This was very interesting to learn. Maybe I’m just weird. I think tiny crustaceans are fascinating and adorable.
“In general, cladoceran head shape changes gradually from generation to generation, in a year-long cycle: the young are born helmeted during the summer and round-headed during the winter. As pond water heats up during the summer, it decreases in viscosity, and so helmetless cladocerans would find themselves tending to sink away from the algae they eat, which grows thickest in the sunlit top layers of the water. The helmets increase the cladocerans’ surface area, and therefore their buoyancy, so that they can hang where they want to in the water without sinking too fast. Some cladocerans also develop higher helmets or defensive spikes in the presence of predators.”
