Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.

YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.

Feel free to ask if you're not sure if I know a fandom or not. I know I need to put what things I'm a fan of in my profile. It really is more than Princess Tutu, I swear. I just collect a lot of those icons. XD

If you pick someone I play on [info]polychromatic--Ahiru, Autor and Chrono--I will likely ramble. Don't say I didn't warn you. OH and I'll do more than one character BECAUSE I LOVE THIS MEME.

YAY

Well, now I know what release I'm going to be waiting for....I'd go ahead and watch the streamed episode if my connection was working well today. >>;;

...Also, I've started playing Twilight Princess recently. It's fun on the wii....

I had more of an update, but...the bad connection is irritating me, so I'll write more later.

(40) Ahiru VS Fakir, 40
....so apparently I can only sleep about 5 1/2 hours here right now. On Thursday I went to bed at midnight and woke up at 5:30. Last night I went to bed at 10 and...I woke up at 3:30. Hmmmm.

So I'm just kinda up...chilling...maybe I'll be able to take a nap later in the day.

But hey, I just found something on TVTropes that makes it aaaaall better. Apparently there's a video game where the President of the United States fights in a mech against the Vice President. Which is...just...dude, I love Japan. ...Somehow, I have a feeling Caleb already knew about this one.

The Move

Testing...testing!

A one, a two, a three?

...Yes, by George, I do believe this townhouse has...working internet! Or...I'm leeching from one of the neighbors. Either/or, I can get on the internet! YAY, I WON'T BE BORED AND ISOLATED!

I might not even miss the curse today! Autor amusement park antics, GET?

Well, I suppose I should update on what's actually going on: the movers are at the apartment, moving...the stuff we actually managed to get into boxes. (Believe it or not, my room is probably the most completely packed, even though I put most of it off until last night.) I'm sitting in my room--pretty much empty--while I'm waiting for them to get here. I'm here alone, unless you count Jake (my dog) who is locked out in the back--Mom wanted to hang out here, but we accidentally brought a hammer in the car that they needed to take apart some shelves, so she went back.

No air, but luckily it's not too hot today. And the basement is definitely going to work fine for days when it is too hot. There's a view of a big tree out my window....

...I'll get used to this place. It'll take a few days--maybe even after I get back from my trip--but I'll get used to it.

Okay, I'm not really feeling well, so I'm going to be brief tonight.

The interview: I messed up a little, but otherwise I think I did the best I could do. If they don't pick me...I wasn't the right person for the job, but it's because someone else was better. I feel..satisfied and proud of myself (something I rarely feel...so it's nice.) I'm going to send a follow-up card, too. I really, REALLY hope I get it! But if I don't, well...I think they'll make the right choice, even if I'm not it. I think I am, though.

THis afternoon: Blech, I feel siiiiiick. Thank goodness I wasn't like that this morning at the interview. I think I'll be okay in a day or two, though--it's nothing serious, just...enough to make me not want to do much.

SYTYCD: BOLLYWOOD, AWESOME! I love Bollywood! YAY INDIAN CULTURE XD

Also...for those of you who, like me, actually really enjoyed [info]rp_secrets...well, in case you haven't noticed, one of the mods deleted it for good because he was butthurt. yeah, I know. So, I'm advertising for a new community that the mods that actually did the work are starting. It's [info]roleplaysecrets. They've already got a submissions post up. Please spread the word, guys! I'd hate to see the hard work of the mods that truly deserved to be mods go to waste. Particularly since the other com was really starting to get off the ground.

And that's all.
09, (09) evil!Mytho -- huh?
IRL stuff: LAUNDRY )

Fandom stuff: Poly, Chrono Crusade and Tutu fanfic musings )

Okay, now that I got THAT out of the way: I was actively ignoring this meme ("i'm too busy" blah blah), but then Caleb did it so I had to comment, so now I'm gonna do it. ("distracts from THE LAUNDRY")

Comment and I will associate you with:
1) A fandom
2) An anime/manga character
3) A color
4) A song; then I will tell you why I love you~

Shoot, the icon I chose made me remember I need to work on icon posts...somehow...sometime...
(38) Dross -- Absolute Madman, 38
Okay, so, I've been toying with the idea of creating a Wild Mass Guessing page on TV Tropes for Princess Tutu for a while. What is a WMG page, you ask? (Or so the voice in my head asks.) Why, a WMG page is a place to both tell others about your wild fanon theories you actually believe in...annnnd some parody ones that you write in a way that (scarily enough) they could maybe make sense! (Also a GREAT place to go if you want a wacky, cracky idea for an AU and/or Crossover fanfic. Chiyo's parents from Azumanga Daioh are actually dead and she just deludes herself into thinking they're really alive? BRILLIANTLY CREEPY!)

Well, so, anyway...Insert Insane Ramblings Here )

...Right. Anyway. I would like to point out that I don't believe the Autor/Aion/Fridge talking theories, they're all tongue-in-cheek? And, as said before, this'll probably be less hilarious/really weird to me once I sleep. No, I have not slept yet.

...I probably should go sleep. Before I start making crazy theories about Welcome to the NHK, too.

OH! Before I go, though! Remember--TV TROPES IS A WIKI! Join in my insanity! ...B-Before I become the insane one.

No, I'm the sane one I tell you, they all laugh at me but THEY'LL SEE! THEY'LL SEE...

IT IS DONE!

39, (39) evil!Mytho -- Cool as a Cucumber
THERE! I finally replaced all of my icons! Yaaaay~. It's not that I didn't like the icons I had uploaded here before, but I got SO TIRED of seeing the same ones over and over. Whew!

Oh, I keep forgetting to mention, I got accepted into a new RP! It's [info]mukashixmukashi, an AU multi-fandom RP where characters are playing out the roles from fairytales. I play Mytho, and he's...the Little Mermaid.

Yes, you read that right. (Should I say "merman"?)

Buuut...yeah. It's a slow RP, but that's really what I needed. Can't really handle a big action-y RP while I'm at Poly. Kris is playing Fakir there, too. He's the Prince from the same story. (And in case you're wondering--my apologies to anyone that doesn't like yaoi--yes, Mytho and Fakir are going to be a couple. eventually. Both me and Kris think that "character development > buttsex" and we're not really interested in playing the couple without a lot of backstory being built up. For example, Mytho traded his heart for legs not to be with the Prince, but so he could dance. Sooo...yeah, very different version of The Little Mermaid, but fun.)

Also, I went to the mall last night and bought stuff from Hot Topic. Yes, I know, but Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends! I collect t-shirts with cartoon/anime characters on them, so you know. It's great, it has Blue and Cheese on it and says "Imaginary Friends Are Forever", which my entire family finds hilarious because I...never quite grew out of imaginary friends.
Oh, and i bought some rainbow stripey socks there, too. I was due for a new pair.

Bah, besides the icons I didn't get much done. But tomorrow, I will be responsible! I will:
-Vote at [info]tutu_rating!
-Make an icon post!
-Write something for [info]31_days!
-Finally get back into the grove on Poly!
...Hopefully!

Hmm, I think that's it, ayup.

A new Duck!Fic for 31_days

  • Jun. 23rd, 2008 at 3:29 PM
07, (07) Fakiru -- Teasing
Well, it's a start, anyway.

Yeah, I finally got another [info]31_days fic done. I feel like it's too talky, but I like that it has hints of both of the main pairings for Duck without being hugely fluffy.

Boy, my brain hurts from all that writing, though. (And it was a SHORT fic, under 1000 words. WHERE ARE YOU, BRAIN?)

I might make a "real" entry later, but I wanted to point out that I'm writing again first. XD;; I'm trying to decide if I should post it up on the com or wait to see if I can get more done/an icon post finished first, though...

Jeremy asked me last night if I wanted to go to the mall with him and Dee (his girlfriend) today...I kinda do, but I haven't gotten a shower or laundry done yet, so now I dunno if I'll be ready in time. ^^;; I think I might call him when he gets off work and let him know that today might just not work out. I kinda want to get more done now that I'm on a roll, anyway.

Oh, and random note: I just got Stumble Upon. Seems pretty cool...

....I need to vote on applications on [info]tutu_rating before I get behind on that again. XD;; Oh, the poor mods of that community...

In summary: GOOD WEEK

Mmmm...sorry I've disappeared a lot lately. Got busy with RPing and other things. Boy, do I have a lot to cover...in a nutshell:
Big move! )
library job?? )
Sabrina and the Theme Park )
I feel pretty~ )
fandom stuff (NGE, Tutu) )
....I think that's the main stuff!

Pimping NHK

55, (55) Ahiru -- Doesn't Even Matter
So, Death Note: The Movie? As I told anyone who would listen to me last night: "CORNBALL BUT AWESOME." Also, I was incredibly surprised I didn't MIND it dubbed. And L was absolutely perfect.

I'd say more, but I stayed up too late afterwards so now I'm out of it.

Also, though! Exciting news! Crunchyroll is streaming ADV's dub of Welcome to the NHK! I've been renting the DVDs from Netflix and I can tell you that the show is FREAKING AWESOME, and the dub is excellent as well. Chris Patton (Fakir from Princess Tutu, Greed from Fullmetal Alchemist, Joshua Christopher from Chrono Crusade, Sousuke Sagara from Full Metal Panic...) is the lead character in it, and he's really, really good in the dub. One of my favorite performances of his so far, I think. (Yes, I am a huge Christopher Patton fangirl.)
But even outside my fangirling over the dub, it's a great show. Seems like a wacky comedy at first, but sort of a darkly comedic look at a hikkikomori's life. (Hikkikomori are a steadily growing problem in Japan--basically people who never leave their house and spend most of their life...doing nerdy, reclusive things like being on the internet, sleeping, and watching anime. ...Yeah, hits a liiiittle too close to home for some.) Both funny and sort of sad. I should mention that the show is, um, very M-rated, too. Because the main character is also a bit of a pervert. But if you can stomach the content, I highly recommend it.

If you haven't seen the show yet, then what in the world are you waiting for? Go watch it! NOW! GO GO GO!

Man, I just can't sleep lately, I don't know why. This happens every summer. It's like I get into a funk. Maybe I just need to get out of the house more. I need a car. But then I need money. But to get money I need a job. But if I get a job I won't have free time to go anywhere but my job THE VICIOUS CYCLE WHEN WILL IT END?

Iiiiii haven't been on Poly all day. Which I wouldn't mind so much if I actually had been doing something productive today, but I really....haven't. Nope. I feel a little lame. I really need to get going on that stuff tomorrow. (At least I"m reading THIS flist?)

Some memes, because I'm a little bored. Both stolen from [info]myxginxblossoms:

List a pairing, any pairing, from any fandom you know that I know. I'll reply with three things I like about it, three things I don't, and my final verdict on it.



You Have Low Self Esteem 76% of the Time



You tend to blame yourself when things go wrong, regardless of whether it's your fault or not.

You're anxious to please others and rely too much on their opinions. Learn to please yourself first, and your confidence will soar.



EDIT: Oh my gosh, I ADORE the voice of Sidou in the Death Note dub. Way better than the voice I had in my head for him. Oooh LOL.

But the question is, "is he young ENOUGH?"

I finally got around to voting on those applications at [info]tutu_rating, so that means I got stamped for April's Story Role theme! (Yes. April's. I was VERY BEHIND.)



Nearly unanimous, thanks in part to my love of writing. XDD Although Tomo voted the Knight and actually gave some interesting reasoning to it. Which I can't remember now. I should probably check the thread but I'm lazy. And it's 5am and I haven't gone to bed yet. What am I doing. No, I'm not going to use Chrono to convince myself to go to bed. Although it's tempting.

In other news, if I start shipping Satella/Joshua it's all Manda's fault.

EDIT: Oh good gravy. Someone please, PLEASE tell me this is a joke account.

I....I think I love Sami.

That's one of the coolest layouts I've ever seen. *_* I can't believe that's actually Chrono's journal. *IN LOVE*

Gooosh I need to vote on apps at [info]tutu_rating. x_x; Buuut I woke up kinda-sorta early this morning (yes, 8am is early!) and I'm sleepy.

It's shiiiiny

(88) Tomo -- YAY!, 88
Lookit at what I did!

Is it fancy? No. But that darn, not-that-great banner took up much more time than it should've, so I'm showing it off, darn it! XD

Also look, pretty profile. Shiny, right? I still have to get his relationship page up, though. Although currently it's something like:

Rosette: ♥♥? ...?
Shiki: You're cool as long as you don't slay me
Rizelle: DIE

etc.

...I've stayed up until morning working on this darn thing. gkljkljh Oh well might as well work on the relationship page now!

Also, so I don't forget:
I love making lists and then not doing anything with them... )
The theme of the summer is PRODUCTIVITY!

I will start on this...TOMORROW....ish...next week? In June. Never.

And thus, Haley increases her dork cred.

School's out, probably kinda screwed up on it, still jobless, blah blah blah. But that's okay because I finally had the time last night to do something I've really wanted to do. XD

I made a page for Chrono Crusade on TVTropes!

Yeah, I know, I'm a total dork, but check it out! It's shiny. Woefully incomplete (I can already think of one trope I haven't added yet that I should: "With Great Power Comes Great Insanity". Plus, there's probably a better trope to explain Satella than "cool big sis", but I can't think of another one right now...). But I still feel accomplished. (Do you know how much I hate writing summaries?! That's why I loathed Chrono's history section of the application so much. XD; )

But yeah. I feel...cool. In a dorky sort of way. *tempted to post it up on the Chrono Crusade community, buuuut almost feels weird introducing herself that way*
