I've been meaning to update forever because HEY I'M TOTALLY ADDICTED TO BRILLIANT LEGACY and also I just returned from Japan (where perhaps not so coincidentally I got addicted to Brilliant Legacy).
First of all? Brilliant Legacy has completely taken over my life. I'm in love with the main characters and the plot has just kept me completely glued to my screen. )










And now a meme that I got from [livejournal.com profile] aoimidori

Comment and I'll LJ stalk you to find three fandoms you apparently love. And then you answer these questions about them!


❶ What got you into this fandom in the first place?

❷ Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?

❸ Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc?

❹ Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?

❺ Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?


answers here! )

Also since getting back from Japan I've gotten into Being Human. I just finished watching the first seven/six episodes and really like the direction the show is taking. I might try to do a post on it, because it definitely deserves watching.
Ok. Can I first say that this is why I really really love Japan. Getting vanilla from cow poop? No problem!

My shoulders are kind of sunburned, and I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to go buy aloe vera for it. It's just a minor sunburn and I've had way worse. I kind of expected to get a sunburn yesterday--on my way back from buying black flats for work, I had to wait outside for almost an hour for the shuttle to school.

Although, in view of how I got the sunburn, I'm not too upset about it. I got to hang out at the coolest shopping center near Baltimore. I explored Baltimore's public transportation to Hunt Valley's Shopping Complex. In the complex, there's a *gasp* WEGMAN'S aka the love of my life, a DSW, california pizza kitchen, ann taylor loft, panera etc. It was a very worthwhile trip. Now I don't have to wear my cheap target flats to work everyday!

Stolen from [info]aoimidori :
  • Open your WinAmp/Itunes
  • Put the shuffle-mode on
  • Find a picture of the first 20 artists. If the same artist comes again, skip
  • Why you should do this? So that other people would know what you're listening and how the bands look like.

Stay tuned for the next post: I'll upload all the songs and have the correct bands!
Hey everyone!

I hope everyone's week has been going well! I'm finally starting to get over my cold---and my allergic reaction X D. Apparently my body doesn't like certain antibiotics and decided to inform me via a huge amount of hives. It's my firm opinion that I should only see red spots on me when getting the chicken pox.

School's also started up and it's already pretty intensive. I originally signed up for four physics classes and one french lit class, but i'm thinking of dropping one or two physics classes for elementary number theory. Pro: There's no mid terms or finals for the class and my favorite math ta will be ta-ing this class. con: taking this class commits me to a math double major so I have to take two more math classes. Also, I have to drop either EM or Galaxies.

The professor for EM seems really awesome. He had an entire presentation today about the history of physics at my school and a little bit of school history I didn't even know. He also talked about how this class will give us the toolbox to deal with physics in general and it seems like such a great learning opportunity. He even took the girls aside after the class and gushed how excited he was that one third of the class is female and to tell him if we ever think he should do something to improve getting women in the field. He was so cute and sweet. However, this class promises to be a lot of work--especially because I struggled a lot with it last semester. I just don't know if it's worth it.

As for the galaxies class, the teacher herself was a bit dry, but the material seems so interesting. She showed us this simulation of two massive galaxies colliding and their black holes "activating." There's a really cool movie of the simulation here, if you scroll down and click on the second picture. It's all very relaxed and good for the first few hundred million years as the galaxies collide but on their second collision the black holes suddenly turn on and the gas (which the simulation is of) is suddenly blown away. It's crazy.

Ok, now for the fun part of this post. A meme! stolen from [personal profile] aoimidori One-Sentence Drabble Meme. Comment with a pairing and a prompt and I will write you a line of fic. Do your worst!
So I had a super minor procedure done this past week, but I'm finally feeling back to normal. I found this old white linen jumper in my room that's extraordinarily big on me. Which is perfect because wearing baggy clothes is preferable at the moment. However people kept giving me odd looks all today while I was wearing this white jumper. It confused me until I got home and saw myself in a mirror and realized the sleeves were massively long and the jumper was really huge giving the impression that I am at best, an exceedingly eccentric painter wearing my smock around or I'm a really sedate mental patient.

But aside from clothing mishaps, I've been feeling less sore and tired. Which is really good because school starts up soon and I have to still study for lsats. As second semester gets closer and closer, I'm realizing just how much pain and suffering this semester will entail. I'm going for a b.s. in physics (why? because i've clearly decided i'm not going to physics grad school. So this will do absolutely nothing for me D : ) so I have about four more required classes and then I'm free!


So on a completely random tangent, I'm finally getting around to watching Countdown and it's so hilarious and awesome. I love how incredibly ninja Ryo is and the Sunrise Nippon arashi/news song. Although I thought it was extremely funny how all of the little groups were hugging except  Shige and Ohno. Ohhh Shige the awkward is so endearing. And the Ryo/Jun hugging would have been even more awesome if Jun had taken off the glasses sooner.

I realized that I've fallen to a new low when Jun finally came out without the glasses and wearing the white ugly suit and the red flower and I almost sobbed in relief. "Ahhh finally something normal!" I said to myself.

I really to thank Kami ([personal profile] tinyangl) for posting two of my stories for me to korette. I love you so much for letting me be ridiculously lazy. How do you put up with me? *showers love*

Ok! Meme time! (taken from [profile] ilanabean42)

1. Leave me a casual comment of no particular significance, like a lyric to your current favorite song, your favorite kind of sandwich, or maybe your favorite game. Any remark, meaningless or not. (I like collecting quotes, so if you give me a quote you like, that would be particularly cool.)
2. I will respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in your own post.
5. When others respond with a desultory comment, you will ask them five questions


Here are my responses to her questions:

meme time!

1. Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favorite lyric to your current favorite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich. Something random. Whatever you like. (Make sure you tell me if you want questions when you comment, because if you don't specify, I'm assuming you don't want any!)
2. I'll respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be asked, you will ask them five questions.
Alright! I decided that I wanted to do a meme, and I think that is my first interactive one...exciting, no? So, here's how it works, (although I'm sure that most everyone has already seen this), anyone who wants to responds to this post with five questions about fandom. And I mean any kind of questions about fandom: they can be general questions about what I like, fandoms (and contrary to popular opinion, I do have other fandoms besides JE X D), couplings, ANYTHING, and I will do my best to answer. So, ready set go!
