What was the subject title of your first-ever LJ entry?

Submitted By [info]paperxflowerz


View other answers



I...actually didn't have one. I was totally new to lj at the time, and couldn't even code a layout at that point. Truly, I have grown. Looking back on some of those entries is more than a little cring inducing. It's painful to think I was that immature at eighteen, or that I had apparently never heard of that remarkable concept "space between sentences".

Thus far, I have been failing in my vow to update this thing more often. It doesn't help that work has felt all but endless lately, and I've been closing up shop night after night. Doesn't really make for a riveting read, "Closed the store again today, wish all teenagers would die in a fiery pit of vomit". Whatever, I plan on spending tomorrow just kicking back and relaxing-I feel I've definitely earned it.

What fictional character do you most identify with?


View other answers



I had to think long and hard about this one, surprisingly enough. There are many black-hearted cynics out there, but without a doubt the one I identify with the most is Discworld's His Grace Commander Sir Sam Vimes. Who else for that mix of pure misanthropy yet lawful good? That's me to a T, and probably the reason I never tire of reading Watch-centric books or Discworld books at all. Close second would be Archer from Fate, but it takes him a little too long to get around to doing the right thing. Third would be Daria, cyncism, detachment, and intelligence she isn't sure what to do with all in one deadpan package.

In yet more Neuro related news, I want to write fic. LIKE BURNING. Only good idea I've had thus far is a Higuchi I LUFF YOUUUUUUUUU centric fic, though. Maybe the arrival of my Neuro and Yako nendoids will change that.I give him five minutes tops before he bondages her. Bless.

Happy Birthday, [info]umbra_elf! Hope y'all have some good times out there, and your birthday gift is being sent out tomorrow, so you have that to look forward to.

New layout, just cos it's summer and I feel like something fresh. Much love to Mai Waifu [info]misheard for the banner-does it really get any more kickass than Team BFF? The answer, my friends, is no. Even considering how girly Waver was back then. Went back to my Fate moodtheme as well, since I wanted to tie the whole thing together.

Enjoying summer break and its bon mot for laziness. All that needs to happen is for Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro to get an English license (at least for the manga), and my life will be complete. Hopeless Neuroholic here, people. Read it, because it is awesome black comedy/drama with one of the more unique Shonen protagonists out there. You won't believe some of the stuff Neuro does, yet he gets away with all of it AND has you rooting for him due to ridiculously high levels of awesome.

What is it about graduations that depress the hell out of me? All the ridiculous pomp and circumstance? The sense of overwhemling futility? My own inferiority complex?

Of course, having to wake up at SIX FUCKING THIRTY for a nine o'clock ceremony when I'm already feeling sick doesn't help things any. Goddamn UCLA. Goddamn afterparty I have to make a token appearance at for at least an hour. Goddamn making polite conversation with a bunch of people I could, on the whole, care less about.

Stuff like this makes me seriously want to take up smoking full time, instead of just the occasional cig when I drink healthy, I know. I just want to go home and sleep.

Sick. It sucks, especially since this is the first time in a while I've gotten so sick more than a night's bed rest was required. I won't go into the gory details, but needless to say it hasn't been fun.

Been passing the time with the awesomely effed up Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro-not the type of thing I usually go for, but it's got an interesting premise to it, and wonderful black humor.

Wow, I am so bad at updating this thing. Y'all, I am made of 100% USDA-approved FAIL.

Well, something of a legit excuse in that there was a class I really, really needed to do well in and couldn't afford the distraction. Thank god that's over with. Also, desperately trying to get some writing done and actually finish this bloody chapter that I've been wrestling with for seven months. SEVEN. Yes, much longer and I could have had a baby with less time, effort, and hair-pulling.

Summer is tantalizingly close, at the very least. I'll welcome the free time, that's for sure. There's so much I want to get done, but work and school eat up so much of my time and very small pools of energy. I know, excuses, excuses. But hopefully Marie will be able to get her birthday off so she and I can do the "Disneyland on your birthday for free" deal together (or rather, free for her and I'll pay for my ticket). Oh Disneyland, how I love you. LOVE YOUUUUUUUUU.

I want a new banner. Love the 1896 one, but it's not very summery and bright, which is what I want now...Toradora? Lucky Star? Fate? Nevermind it's all moot unless I can beg someone with actual photoshop skillz to make it for me. FAILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

I can't believe how long it's been since my last post. So busy! And when I finally do post, I've more or less as drunk as I've ever been-and yes, that does include my 21st birthday. Christian had a totally awesome birthday thanks to yours truly, and that's what matters, right?

Right?

Argh. Nine drinks DEFINITELY my limit. Ten clearly makes me slutty beyond belief (do NOT ask, trust me).

Will put pics up later, have at least not barfed.

One of the few times I'm actually sober enough to do a drunk!post, so I may as well take advantage of it. Not terribly drunk, that is, but still. Five drinks is a lot for a lightweight like me.

I had a good time though. M from work throws a good party, and I'm sad I had to leave so soon. First cig too. Not as bad as I thought it'd be-in fact, it actually sobered me up some. Amazing.

Happy last (belated) day of Hannakuah, y'all~!

Insomnia? Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkksssssss.

Especially when your brain will not shut the hell up about Sexy Team Red/Black plotbunnies. And you deseperately need sleep for your sure-to-be-exhausting workshift today.


[info]umbra_elf? THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT. YOU LEFT ME WANTING MORE STR/B, AND NOW I WILL BE A ZOMBIE FUELED SOLELY BY MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF CAFFEINE.

Actually, I do blame Nasu more. No canon Archer/Rin route my ass. BUT STILL. NEED. MORE. *brains self in a last-ditch effort to get even a few hours rest*

I'm totally in love with Iron Chef Cat Cora. Seriously.

I've followed her for a long time now, but Wednesday I went to a tasting event she was holding at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills, and needless to say was utterly charmed. She was charming, funny, and easygoing at the interview and Q & A, all with that husky Southern accent.

She answered my question too, "Who would be your ideal Iron Chef challenger, and what would be your dream ingredient?". Turns out she wants to take on Gordon Ramsey, something that only made her yet more awesome in my eyes.

The tasting event was delicious too, especially with all the free booze. There was this really awesome cocktail with ouzo (Greek liquor. Cat Cora is of Greek descent.), and this really amazing cheese thing. Unfortunately, it wasn't very well organized. But that wasn't Cora's fault so much as her publicist's. I was lucky enough to get a picture with her, so I'll put that up when my godmother sends it to me.


And now I really want to cook something. XD

I VOTED, bitches! And y'alls of legal age better have voted too-remember, I know where most of you live.

Seriously-there's no real excuse, short of serious illness or a criminal record, to not vote. Anything else is just laziness or apathy, and remember, if you don't vote, how can you expect to have a say in how the country you live in works? Just think back on how you didn't even vote if you ever feel like complaining about the country's state of affairs. You know my Future Husband Aaron Eckhart agrees with me. It doesn't even matter what party you are, or your political inclinations-just make your voice heard. Everyone counts.

Edit:
Yes we can. Congrats, President Obama.

All I can say is, it fucking figures. God, three days before I'm set to go to Indiana, and my laptop gets a spyware virus.

I really, really hate my life right now. And wish I was drunk so at least I would forget how fucking miserable I am for a little while.

This week had been going so well, too. Please, please let it be something that can be fixed quickly and easily. And please still let my copy of Fate be on it.

Elf, I'll email you my travel info and whatnot if I can't contact you through messenger.

Need booze. And Archer/Rin smut. NOW. *curls up into a miserable ball*

It's been awhile. I just haven't felt like updating lately. Ironic considering stuff actually IS happening to me for once. I can't believe there's only a few weeks till I head to Indiana for being [info]umbra_elf's bridesmaid. I'll be flying to Louisville and then crossing the border to Indiana since she's so far down south. Actually, I'm kind of disappointed I can't swing by the Creation Museum in Kentucky and perhaps pick up a magnet of Adam and Eve riding a velociraptor (dinosaurs were vegetarian before the Fall, doncha know!)or something equally absurd. A poster explaining why incest was perfectly okay before the Great Flood would also work. Just what every home needs! On second thought, I really don't believe in giving my hard earned cash to idiots, so it's just as well. Even if it is a shame to miss out on the World's Godliest Triceratops.

Ahhh...I needed that laugh. Just to make this clear by the way, thinking creationism is stupid =/= Christianity is stupid, thanks. In before any Christians on my flist get horribly offended, hopefully.

"One serious issue that I do want to address that is sort of close to my heart, the issue of the teen pregnancy. They have said that this was Bristol's decision and we should honor that. I have a daughter. The reason why I think it's fair game is Sarah Palin is on record as saying she would veto abortions for women, even in the event of being raped. So what she is in essence saying; "Respect my family's ability to make this decision, and elect me so I can keep your family from having the same opportunity". -Jon Stewart, Daily Show interview with Newt Gingrich, 09/03/08.


Jon Stewart, I toast this drink to you. Thank you for perfectly voicing my view on a woman who thinks the Bible gives her the right to tell me what to do with my body. Fuck that. The word here is decision, and that implies choice. I have just as much right to decide not to keep a baby as much as I have the right to decide to keep it. All the religious mongering in the world doesn't change that.

Comments off because I don't feel like debating, just venting my feelings. Besides, my adoration of Jon Stewart is beyond debate. Not private or lj-cut because I think this is important enough to me not to hide.

My sister left this morning to move to her dorm up in Monterey. It's going to be really weird without her around, needless to say. Her dog is already whining for her, which is the saddest thing about it since she's not coming back till Thanksgiving break.

School starts for me next week too. Where did you go, my summer?!?! Well, at least I'm seeing it off in style-I managed to get Sunday off so I'm going to the Summer Matsuri in Little Tokyo-yay, festival food! Then it's back to education. And trying to figure out where the hell I'm going to transfer/do with my life. ORZ.

Well, one step at a time. First dinner, then the rest of my life.
