Another day in a long string of days.
First proper meal I've had since Thursday, dinner today. Being able to ignore a growling, grumbling stomach is a practical skill in the short-term, and slightly detrimental in the long-term. But I'm not usually so lax on nutrition; it's been a fever-ridden week.
Went for a meeting organised for fanfiction writers in the area. Only one other person showed up, and I was very surprised to see that it was a boy. It was completely unexpected, because statistics would say that he'd be a she. Never mind though, he was pretty nice, and we had a pleasant chat.
(During which I was mildly chided for living an unadventurous and anti-social life, ahahahaha.)
(Oh, the nervous laughter. I think I spent an equal amount of time speaking and nervously laughing. I cannot stop it, not with will alone).
Walked back from the city center; it's about 40 minutes worth of brisk walking, and taking in some fresh air has been awesome. Except for the slight case of sniffles it has saddled me with. But that's hardly a life or death situation, so I'm just sitting with a roll of tissues next to me.
Bought Milo and rice and grapes. The grapes, because mum said I look a bit peaky and off-colour and my skin looked distinctly unhealthy, and fruits should make their way into my diet post-haste. I like grapes and melons and peaches. Soft things, mostly, and loathe apples and bananas. So, grapes, yum. Was supposed to by vitamins because mum is also convinced (probably rightly) that I'm malnourished.
To those who know how much such things cost, in a Chinese grocery store, a durian cut into quarters was sold at about £10 per quarter. PER QUARTER. I nearly popped a blood vessel.
Currently? Listening to my iTunes as I try to psych myself up to get some homework done. Happily, I have the encouraging support of a custard tart I've been saving for such an occasion (^_-)-☆
Received a reply from Gentleman Head Gardener-san. Am planning an appointment to meet and discuss what my volunteering will entail at the botanical garden. A friend said he would lend me a spare bike he has, and if I can get it, I wouldn't need to take the bus to get there. Which would be bloody spectacular, because not only would I be saving teh monay, I get to ride a bicycle.
I love riding bicycles :D
And, A1: The Road Musical. Pfffffffffff.

Date: 2010-03-14 01:31 pm (UTC)XDD It's fun as hell! First time I tried it I was trembling, smiling like an idiot and unable to stop laughing when it was finished. It was an amazing feeling. And I'm sure the hardcore one would have the same effect, if I dared trying!
lol! High-five for that! (I guess. People look at me funny every now and then too.) *Hi5* xD I SHALL! *Scurries off to put it on my to-write list*

Date: 2010-03-14 02:06 pm (UTC)If I ever go there, I'll give both a try. Yeah. If you do try it, like, I totally want to know what it's like.
I support this mild insanity! Though how epic is your must-write list? Because mine is epic. So epic, I may never get around to finishing it.... >_<

Date: 2010-03-14 02:30 pm (UTC)Do that~~ lol, I highly doubt I'll ever get to it. XDD
It's pretty epic. It has a few very awesome kinkmeme requests. Like...
"Lavi/Kanda
...Mud wrestling..."
and
"anon! I want you to give me.... Cross' first time.
[moar info here]"
There are also lines such as.
"How would you like your eggs this morning?" "Unfertilized, thank you"
"I laugh at your piano." "Your piano!"
And this...
Kanda and Alma as teenagers. AU.
And some dialogues that I have to include somewhere one day...
And this is an idea I'm quite proud of.
When the pillars of Lenalee's world come crashing down, Lavi takes it upon himself to teach her how to stand on her own, Bookman duties be damned.
Sorry for the spam. XDD

Oh wow, Cross' first time is simultaneously magnificent and terrifying. I can't imagine who the chick would be! The line about eggs makes me feel bad for laughing XD
Kanda and Alma as teenagers sounds like it'll be totally awesome *u*
Interesting idea is interesting... You're much better than me for writing other pairings, ossi, I can't really imagine writing Kanda or Lavi with anyone else *sparkly eyes*
For me, it's mostly Environmentally Friendly, a few kink requests, that ten-people drabble-meme I haven't completed yet, some stuff I want to get done for the fest, and the last chapter for a story in an old fandom. I suspect I'm biting off way more than I can chew...
And you don't have to apologise for spam. Spam is what we do :D

Date: 2010-03-14 03:16 pm (UTC)Do it~
Inorite? I had to put it on there. The eggs one was randomly written by someone on Skype. I was like "kjgfpodsjiogd I have to include that in a fic SOMEHOW!" and they were like "We will love you forever if you do!" xD
lol, it's not really a pairing one, per se. I don't ship them, and I don't think it'd happen, really (but what do I know where that story will go?). It's mostly because Lavi cares about Lenalee, and the idea hit me one day and I couldn't just ignore it.
Heh, you're not the only one. Sometimes I look at this list and just go "will all of this ever get done? D:" I've begun a kink request that I posted there too, and I really should continue that... But I have so much else I have to write I keep postponing it. >.
