I'm too wiped to talk about the retreat. Maybe tomorrow.

For now, a meme!

I love looking at people's icons, but I don't always *get* them - I often wonder stuff like, "Who's that guy?" or "Where's that quote from?" but I tend not to ask, for various reasons. So come on, here are my icons. Pick one (or more!) you're curious about, and I'll try to explain it. Or at least explain what I like about it.

Fushigi Yuugi. That's the seven warriors of Suzaku all getting with Miaka, their brainless fearless leader, to take a group photo. (Miaka's from the present and brought a Polaroid camera with her.) The photo shows up a few more times as a bit of a symbol of their camaraderie -- in fact it appears in my favorite scene in the entire series -- so I thought it would make a good icon for friendship/togetherness/etc. (I added in the polaroid border and tossed in the text at the bottom, which translates: "Everyone, say cheeze!")
