Veth's Journal

Spent basically the entirety of the last two days watching every Pixar movie with most of my friends. It was huge amounts of fun. I'm going to miss those guys. :(

As is common when watching Pixar movies, I kept noticing things that I hadn't the first however many times around, but the standout this time was that A Bug's Life is an extended take on the fable of the ant and the grasshopper. I really don't know why it took me this long to think of that. It's still cool though. :B I also cried at Jessie's backstory scene for the first time. It's the song. Stupid song. *bawls*

Now, a meme.

Reply and I'll give you four fandoms. You then have to make an entry writing about your favorite character from each fandom, and why.

( Hetalia, Ookami-san, Kuroshitsuji, Lost )

Also, RIP Satoshi Kon.

Tuesday's episode of Lost was very relevant to my interests. By which I mean Richard + beard + long hair + speaking Spanish = unf. Too bad we will probably never see that version of him again. Why do all the hot guys in Lost either die or shave. :(

Also, speaking of interests relevance, Grell. Just... Grell. And the other guys too in that picture but fffff. GRELL I WILL MARRY YOU OKAY.

In not incoherent fangirl news, Anime Boston's in a week. All I still have to do costume-wise is finish my pants, make my shirt, make a hair ribbon, figure out how to do my hair, get some shoes, get a non-moth-eaten blanket, get a white T-shirt that is smaller than an XL, and like get some flip-flops too or something. And find my camera. Other than that I am good right? :B

Oh wait I lied more incoherent fangirling
JCA SECRET IN F!S :D :D :D
</fangirling>

EVERYONE GOOGLE "RECURSION". RIGHT NOW. Aren't you glad you did.

Why is Daniel Faraday's last name Faraday if it isn't either of his parents' last names? Also why has he never had a British accent when both of his parents are British and he was raised there? And is Wes Weasley's name short for Wesley Weasley? Because that would be a terrible name.

BNL's "For You" is a really good song. I want to use it in a fanmix or an AMV or a playlist or something never mind that I have no idea how to do any of that aaaaaaaa.

Do people actually read this thing anymore? I'd really like to know whether or not I'm sarcastic. :|

It looks like this may become a thing.

( more Lost )

edit: Also might as well take this post to post a meme.

Comment on this post. I will choose seven interests from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so others can play along.

I am probably more excited than I should be that my limited knowledge of Japanese is now at the point where I can mangle certain YouTube Poop lines. ここに 地図が あります。どこに いきたいですか？FEAR IT, YO.

Have a meme I got from a place.
Pick six of your favorite fandoms and answer the questions (don't look at the questions before you choose the fandoms). For "favorite" read "current".

1. Bleach
2. Hetalia
3. The World Ends With You
4. Sandman
5. Lost
6. Kuroshitsuji

( I bet you're really curious to see what happens. (Warning: contains fangirling.) )

yay.

Camp was fun and I miss it. So many cool people. So many cool stuff. ;_;

( boring artpads )

Also, if anyone had any doubts of how much of a freak I am, I have cast the main characters of The Office to the song "Piano Man". Yyyep.
(Piano Man = Jim; old man = David Brent; John = Tim; Paul = Dawn; Davy = Gareth; waitress = Pam; businessman = Michael; manager = Dwight.)

So Jordin's the next American Idol. Good for her. Bad for Blake. Oh well. I only watched half of it anyway. The rest of the time I was too busy watching ( LOST. )

I have some words to say about ( LOST )

This is the best wiki article ever. This comes in second.

Also, Naruto fanfic rec: Switched! I love bodyswap stories, and this one certainly delivers. It starts out wonderfully sane. By the end, it had degenerated into...well, I won't spoil it, but a bunch of completely implausible things, and here's the best part: it still remains completely sane. It's not very long, but it is very good. Read it? ^_^

I was probably gonna post something funny...like, from school or something...but I forgot it. If I was.

And in Spanish class, we were doing this activity where we were supposed to draw the first thing we thought of, and I drew Desmond. Obsessed much? :P And it was cool because we were doing this story where people took turns putting whatever they drew into a story, and I was like, "Desmond entró y gritó: —¡TODOS VAN A MORIR!" Even if someone did think he was Sirius Black. (whut?)

Speaking of, anyone who has ever read or seen or both Naruto or Harry Potter or (preferably) both needs to read THIS FIC. Right NOW, mister.

And since it's been a while since the last and I'm in love with the shuffle function, ( here's that one song meme. )

Since I was a really lazy non-posting person this past month, there were two birthdays I didn't acknowledge. My apologies to John Noble (who turned 58 on the 20th) and Billy Boyd (who turned 38 on the 28th).

What did I say I was going to talk about? Pirates and pie...Well, um, Pirates kinda starts with the word pie, so...actually, I've been putting off making a proper post for so long that I've completely forgotten everything I was going to say. Sorry. School's starting soon. Bleah. Oh - Freeglader, if you're reading this, I read Dune. I guess your fanfic did something after all.

My computer's in the shop right now, so if you were trying to email me, you can't. This is being posted from the library computer, but I don't like checking my email on public computers. So.

A website to check out: Guess the Character (shown to me by Tyma). Like a more-than-20-questions game of 20 questions, this game guesses right a lot. And if it doesn't, you can input your character into the game so it will guess it next time!

Interesting stuff I've friended:

bri_chan - Check out her deviantART page. She does Pirates stuff. She does LotR stuff. She does Disney stuff. She's cool.
fanart100 - A fanart challenge comm. Artists pick subjects and then have to make 100 arts based on a prompt table. They've got fanart from pretty much everything you can think of.
fandom_puffs - If you liked potterpuffs, you'll love this. Puffs from all sorts of fandoms. She even takes requests. And I got this icon from there. ^_^
gay_fanart - Just what the name says. A gay fanart comm, headed by the irreplaceable theonemonaghan, who draws lovely Domlijah. Be warned - not everything in there is clean.
jackwill - Again, just what the name says. A Jack/Will community. This also has some...not good stuff in it.
lost_challenge - Remember I mentioned this one a few posts back? Well, I've caught up to where they are now.
potc_100icons - A Pirates icon challenge comm. Though there have been no icons posted as yet, it looks interesting.
potc_art - Pirates art of all kinds. I just typoed "kinds" as "knids". VERMICIOUS KNIDS!
turrowton - What's the only thing hotter than Jack/Will? Jack/Will/James! Actually, that's debatable, but still. It's hot. Also has some not < PG-13 rated stuff in it.

And if you're looking for the tongue twister, it's in the subject line.
