Generally speaking, I use/pick my icons for the emotion or mood in them!

1. A friend made a bunch of icons like this, and I was drawn to this one. I think I relate to it, in a way - always looking far away but feeling blindfolded.

2. I love sunflowers, and this icon is my happy icon!

3. Hm, I chose this one because it's such a beautiful picture of the kind of laziness I love - lounging around with books. The idea of lying in a bookshelf just appeals to me.

4. The keywords are from a line from my favourite e.e. cummings poem. Again, I love sunflowers, and I find it incredibly romantic. I usually use it when I post about my boyfriend.

5. Ahhhh, I love Doctor Who, I love Ten/Rose, and I like the kind of hopeful, optimistic feeling of this icon.

6. Garden State is a favourite movie of mine. I wanted an icon for when I'm feeling like I need comfort, or for when I'm commenting and someone needs comfort. The keywords are a line from Let Go by Frou Frou, the song that plays at the end of the movie.

7. AFF is a singer that I adore, and I found this picture and LOVED it - so pretty! And it's a reading icon; so useful in so many situations - commenting on fic, when I post about creativity or books or studying, etc.

8. Another favourite movie, and I chose this icon because I like the emotional tone of the picture. Kind of tired, feeling like it's you against the world, but with someone.

Ah. Makes so much sense. I've always liked your icons, even when I was curious why them. :huggles:
