So, I did another MIA deal and haven't updated this. I know, I know, I'm an awful LJ friend. :\ Mostly, I hesitated to post anything recently, just because my real life has been so up and down. My dad has had to get two surgeries, and so on. But things seem to be settling down a bit more, thankfully.
So on to better things! I got a kitten last week! :D I am a nerd, and apparently so is my family, so after much heated debate over what we should name him, we decided on Tiberius. ("No, that's the worst!" I hear people saying. BUT IT'S NOT.) He's incredibly fluffy and a huge attention whore, and he likes to climb on my face while I'm trying to sleep. He's a total brat, and I love him. <3
( Read more... )
Shawna has been here for the week, and we are up to all sorts of shenanigans. And by shenanigans, I generally mean watching jdramas and Arashi shit. We're marathoning Stand Up, which I think may be one of my new favorite dramas forever - mostly because Nino is in it doing stuff like this:
We also took a break from our busy lives to go to the New Kids On the Block concert in Saratoga. Which was pretty epic. And it's probably saying something about how much JE has warped my mind when I'm honestly a bit disappointed that none of their costume/wardrobe changes included anything with sparkles, fringe, and/or feathers. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE BOYBAND BEHAVIOR. |

I got my copy of H in the mail, with the Sho in NYC photoshoot! I pretty much carried it around and showed it to anyone that was willing to look at that little dot in the background that was ever-so-definitely me. Because I'm totally lame! And really, only my mom sort of cared, because mothers are supposed to care when their daughter is a pseudo in-the-background-of-a-foreign-publication celebrity.
Aaaand, I've finally caught up and watched the NEWS PV. It had everything I expect from a NEWS video (bad choreography, Shige failure, the Pi-cups) plus disco. This combination cannot be bad. Ever.
In other news: VAMPS. I'm going to the New York and Baltimore shows! The whole thing happened so quickly, I don't really know how they have the power to make me rationalize "Sure, Baltimore, why not?" It's going to be epic, and amazing, and God help me if there's merchandise there, because I'll be broke by the end of this trip.
For less fun financial worries, my sister sort of guilted me into a trip to DC as well. Which she might think of as persuading, but she left me a voicemail along the lines of:
"Hi Holly! I just found a really great deal on tickets to DC, but it only works if you book tickets for two people! But I understand, if you can't come, you can't come. Also, Jackie said she'd be really upset if you couldn't make it. Love you, call me later!"
And I've joined the ranks of the most pointless site on the internet and got myself a Twitter. Feel free to friend me if you have one. :D |

Hi to everyone I've recently friended!
Things that are bad about this past week:
-Jared canceling his appearance at the Supernatural con. SERIOUSLY WTF. NOT COOL, JARED.
-The Japanese store in the mall here is closing down in a few weeks. This is JUST when I'm about to have a decent enough income to go buy things. Sigh.
-Finishing Zettai Kareshi finally... which I liked, but seriously, I should have been warned before starting it that the ending STABS YOU IN THE HEART.
Things that are good about this week:
-BOBBY WILL BE THERE. Bambi is determined to tell him that he was her favorite character in Turner & Hooch. ;)
-We might go on Saturday now, which = MISHAFACE.
-Everything in the store was half off, and I found a Music Station Super Live DVD there! Arashi, Yamapi, KAT-TUN (sans Jin), pretty much every Johnny on the planet was on it. AND RANDOMLY, DANIEL POWTER PERFORMED LULZ.
-Shawna is going to be here! :D Cat sitting, of course.
-I got a good haircut! It's very short again, and I'm really happy with it. Bambi put in dark and light red highlights in hers, which I'm pretty sure probably glow in the dark. My mom put in some red underneath the top layer of blond, which makes her very PUNK ROCK.
-All This Love Crap, Taylor's new Supergroup, and the Mmmcock '09 scandal reminded me why I love Hanson so much. ♥
( Back to SUPER LIVE... )
I'm thinking of opening something up on Etsy, even though I doubt most of the world is in the market for the weird J-Pop stuff I make. :\ Which will also mean 3 out of 4 people in my family will have their own Etsy shop. We're really just that awesome. |

[Feb. 10th, 2009|01:16 am] |
This is probably as finished as this thing is going to get, even though I'm sure I'm forgetting details. Hopefully Shawna will be able to remember anything I've forgotten to add.
( NYCC Day 1: In which I go to the Yatterman premiere running on nothing but adrenaline and sheer dumb luck )
My two short videos from the day:
In short, all the individual fans that we met throughout the day were mostly very awesome. The fans, in general, were very disappointing. I can't say that it's a very good impression of American fans, or at least not the ideal one, but I'd like to think that we at least tried to leave a good impression on those we were around.
Stay tuned for day 2 of NYCC, in which Bambi and I weasel our way into Milo Ventimiglia's panel, but more importantly, meet THE NINJA TURTLES. |

[Aug. 21st, 2008|11:12 pm] |
So, we last established that I love Maou, right? Still true. Trying to keep up and actually download the newer ones, even though the files are huge. D: But since I have nothing better to do with my life, and I don't really care about the Olympics much, more reviews!
( Here there be Maou spoilers! )
Today I found two nearly finished fics, and thought about finishing and posting them. Clearly I did not do this. :\ Productivity, what is that again? I might still do it, since it would be nice to have something accomplished. I look for small victories these days, since I feel useless otherwise.
Oh, and I finished reading Watchmen early this week! Only to find out that FOX has fucked the movie over, possibly forever. Woe is me. D: But seriously, that book? Fucking amazing. Once I finished it, I kind of had to absorb the whole thing for awhile, the last few chapters were overwhelming.
I might be meeting with the guy on Sunday. Maybe. If the plans work out. And granted I won't fail and wimp out on it. |

So, I spent the week in Cape Cod with my parents to visit my aunt, and Shawna was able to come along as well. :D :D Fun times for all! Also, the 2309483098th viewing of The Dark Knight happened. Because, yeah, we're awesome like that.
One thing that we learned is that, around people that are not us, Shawna and I are pretty much unintelligible as human beings. Most of the time people just tune us out. Like when we start sorting every single person/character/celebrity we can think of into Hogwarts houses...
( ...like this )
We also geeked out over Watchmen, each bought the book, then geeked out over it more. |

So I'm done with everything and still can't sleep for some reason. :\ I wrote fic, though! It's kind of lame and stuff, but there's no JinDa in the world. D:
( Whee! )
Also, I went to see Speed Racer tonight, and I have to say it was worth every penny in terms of sheer entertainment value. And for Rain. ♥♥♥ Although, if you're planning on seeing this movie while under the influence of any substance, here's my advice: don't. It will probably fuck with you very badly. |

PGSM - I'm totally up for the cheese factor of it at this point. I watched a couple more of the episodes and it has too much lulz to not go onward.
In other news, naked Yamapi has graced our computer screens, and the internet promptly exploded. I saw this picture and thought of him.
( WHAT COULD IT BE? )
And then I realized that he clearly should not be naked with some model, but rather other JE boys.
( FIERCE ) |

Happy Easter! (even though Yamapi's birthday is clearly the more important holiday)
