Two exams down, nine to go! Today was English- went quite well :)
Aaaaaaanyway, study break! So yes, doing a meme: Drop me a comment and I will give you 3 interests on your list, and 3 of your icons, for you to explain.

"bloody hell" - Well, I say this a lot. It's my favourite expletive, with the occasional "effing" thrown in before or after the bloody. My HP-loving English teacher claims I stole it from him, but as far as I'm concerned it's been in vogue ever since Rupert Grint said it in 2001.
"ferrets" - They're so damn cute! If I ever own one, I'm naming it Draco. Or Malfoy. I think Malfoy is cute for a ferret? This also stems from the Georgia Nicolson book series - whenever she says something along the lines of "Angus was hunting ferrets/voles/badgers" it cracks me up so badly :P
"green umbrellas" - This is a little dumb, but also sentimental. The first slashy fic I ever ever read was Rhysenn's alternate H/D ending of Draco Veritas back when the first chapter of said fic came out. I was young and innocent, and it was brilliant, and it set me off on the lifelong path to pervy fangirlishness. It involved - oh, I haven't read it in so long, is it still even up? - the Sleazy Weasel and Draco owning a green umbrella or something and him and Harry snogging under it. Anyway, I see a green umbrella, and it makes me smile.
I'm not sure where the joke originated, but I'm most familiar with Richard Dawkins's version of it - Dawkins, notorious and unapologetic atheist, likes to compare modern theism to believing in Thor, or Zeus, or indeed the Flying Spaghetti Monster. This has turned into an enormous source of amusement for his fans, aka me. Followers of the Flying Spaghetti Monster call themselves Pastafarians, and like to spread the word by inviting others to feel the love of his noodly appandage. Also, this icon reminds me of the really great (seriously!) Draco/Squid/Voyeur!Harry I read, and paid homage to by writing a short sequel.
This is my holiday icon. It's about as festive as I ever get, and I happen to think it's hilarious. I luuuurve parodies of anything, really. And augh, I love Death Eater-y humour, and especially things that mock Luscious Lucius.
En Francais, "every day I think of you." I like French, I plan to study it. It's my sentimental icon, I suppose, I just think it's cute, I've no idea where it came from, not much story behind this one.
