Veth's Journal

Well I guess it is just about time for another one of these! Four episodes in this one.

All warnings from the previous two posts apply. Happy reading, yo.

( Especially the one about possession. )

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

So, hey guys. I know I haven't posted in about seven months. I'm sorry if anyone was worried about me (although I don't think anyone was, because I've been very active on tumblr and AIM and elsewhere during that time, but you never know). The reason for this absence is, well, kind of embarrassing. It is simply that I just couldn't write the next 100 things post. After taking so long since the last one, I didn't want to make a new post without having it be an 100 things one. But I kept staring at the compose draft page and nothing very interesting was coming out. So I kind of... dropped off the face of Dreamwidth and LJ altogether. (Well, except for fandomsecrets.) It's been long enough, though. So I guess this is a notice that my 100 things is on hiatus until I can bang out a post that's reasonably good. Sorry about that, y'all.

Now I've got to give an explanation for this post I'm making now. I have, as some do, a paper journal, in which I chronicle those of my thoughts that are too embarrassing, ridiculous, or personal for the outside world. A fair bit of fandom stuff makes its way in there too, and so as I've been rewatching JCA recently, I ended up writing down my thoughts on the episodes in said journal, in something of a livebloggy fashion. I just finished season 1 yesterday, and while looking over the notes I'd been taking, I realized that there was nothing too too personal in there, and that they contained a lot of thoughts I wouldn't mind sharing. I've recently been connecting with a bunch of JCA fans on tumblr (active JCA fans exist!! And they are cool people!!! ♥), and so I thought hey, if I typed up this liveblogging I did, there might be people around who'd want to read it. So I did, and maybe there are! (I should probably tell you now that it's missing four episodes, so you hopefully won't be too disappointed if you were expecting all 13. I watched them; I just didn't write about them. ._.;; Also, just so you're aware, it's quite long! But it's all bullet points, so hopefully it's not too much of a pain to read. c:)

Warnings: This liveblog wasn't written with anyone in mind except myself. The following has therefore been slightly modified from its original version. It has been formatted to fit your screen, and also with the intent of excising irrelevant stuff and making me seem like slightly less of a creeper. It still contains some NSFW talk (though nothing graphic), discussion of a pretty pedo ship, fetishization of vulnerability, fangirling in amounts that are possibly unhealthy and definitely embarrassing, and a higher-than-usual incidence of the letter V. If any of that bothers you, you should turn around now.

( Now it is JCA liveblog time! )

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3!

Well, it seems that Livejournal has just changed my layout so the "x comments" link at the bottom of the entry actually brings you down to the comments when you click on it, rather than reading the entry from the top. I would like to change this. Does anyone know how I can get into the HTML and fix it? Or, failing that, any LJ layout troubleshooting communities I can bring this to? I really would appreciate some help with this. :(
EDIT: Well apparently this is an LJ-wide change, so disregard this question. But I'm still upset about it. :|

Might as well do the meme while I'm here.

( Day 22: Favourite villain. )

( Day 23: Least favourite villain. )

I decided to try and come up with human names the ponies would have if they were humans and not ponies.

Twilight Sparkle: Twila Sparks (easy)
Rainbow Dash: Rain/Raine/Rainbow(? parents must have been hippies) Dashell
Pinkie Pie: Wilhelmina Diane Pine (still goes by Pinkie, because she has pink hair and likes pink and, I mean, Wilhelmina)
Applejack: Jacklyn (aka Jackie, Jack) Apple (Applebaum? Appleton? Applesomething?) Her siblings stay Macintosh and Bloom, of course.
I do not know about Rarity and Fluttershy, though in the latter's case I think her last name should be Cheyenne or something. Maybe she is part Albanian and her first name is Flutura. :|a (Thanks, behindthename!) Okay, maybe I just don't know about Rarity.

Oh, also I went to Connecticon this weekend. Quick con report maybe?

( Quick con report maybe! (not actually that quick) (really long actually) )

...And, yeah, that was in fact really long actually, but that's about it. So yes. I had fun. :D And if there was anything I forgot I'll mention it in a later post.

Also I will skip the Digimon meme this post, sorry. This is never going to get posted otherwise. Next time, y'all.

So it is a new year or something. :B To celebrate I have been sick. It's been... not fun. :( Well, supposedly I should be getting better soon. In the meantime, hanging out with my awesome friends is distracting me. Hi awesome friends!

So um. I guess this is what I miss when I stop paying attention to Bleach for months:


♥ IT'S A HOLIDAY MIRACLE :D

Of course, he doesn't stay back for very long ;_;. I did, however, make this icon in commemoration. Sadly, I don't have icon space, but you guys can use it if the fancy strikes you.

Also, as a result of keeping putting it off, I didn't end up applying to that RP before it opened. And it turns out that they closed the apps after opening. Looks like my experiment with RP was a failure. :( I know I would have probably idled out anyway, but it still hurts to think about what I missed out on being part of.

I might have been going to say something else, but I think it was just more whining so I'll end here. Hope you all are having a good year so far! :B

I promised alacranita I'd do a post of foreign Disney song recs, so here it is. yaaaaay
( Spoiler: Norwegian Tarzan rules )
Man that took a while. Also I thought I had more songs than this. :|

And, uh, look at what I found while doing this:

Looks like Japanese Fropin is canon. :B

Not much else to report. Worrying about college is taking up most of my time. Also, joined VDex. You know, that Pokémon thing. I doubt I'll keep up with it, but it's fun currently. Obligatory link to my dudes:
