Why? Because I CAN.

Okay...

Updating for no reason than, hey, there is an empty box in front of me and it's saying, 'update! update!' so I am doing, because that amuses me like that.

Have spent most of the day typing up 'Seuche' bits. I have one scene left to go and fun though it is to type up screeds of fanfic, I've gotten a little bit, how can I put this? Bored, yes, I want to be doing something else. Hopefully I'll be done with that chapter soon, though it remains to be seen how long it is with the final scene added. Because I may then want to add a final final scene, but it will depend on how long the current final scene turns out to be. I may just embroider the current final scene so it's a bit longer.

Either way I should be done with the update by tomorrow night (which is Good, because I like chapter 19 and really want to upload it). The plan was to have the thing done tonight but I'm tired and my head feels too pained and dizzified for me to consider HTML script my friend at this point in the day. So it's going to have to wait because my brain hurts.

I would have had this done yesterday but as well as trying to type up my fic I am also trying to take my email to task ([livejournal.com profile] vermachtnis knows to what I refer to by that) and administer Crazy Fangirl Smackdown to the issues contained therein. I'm really feeling hideously fangirly at the moment which is probably not good.

Ken ate my brain. Long ago.

Still suspect I'm sick, but because I'm on holiday and have nothing much to do this doesn't actually MATTER. Because I get to sleep in as late as I want to. And sit up as late as I want to as well, which usually turns out to be so late that it's early. I don't like to think about what time I got to bed this morning. Hah.

Since this post is pointless, hey, I might as well add to the pointlessness by doing memes until my brain explodes. Or what's left of my brain explodes. Pretty much all taken from the Meme King, namely one [livejournal.com profile] quentin_w, who discovers all this fun stuff like nobody else out there...

Imagination


What Kanji word best suits you?
brought to you by Quizilla


Well, I don't know about the 'making millions' thing. But I do have a very rich inner life. Or, in other words, I'm a dreamy flake! Yay! The only way you're going to stop me writing or daydreaming or generally drifting off onto another planet every time boredom threatens is by KILLING ME DEAD.


Hm. The Five weird habits meme. Can I restrict myself to five? Here goes...

Ground rules: The first player of this "game" starts with the topic "Five Weird Habits of Yourself" and the people who gets tagged need to then write a LJ entry about their five quirky little habits as well as state the rules of this game clearly. In the end, you need to list the next five people who you want to tag, and then go on to leave a tag comment on their LJ.

1. Obsessing over anime boys. In particular one Ken Hidaka, who absolutely kills me dead every time and I don't know why. I've long had this strange habit of obsessing over anime characters, but I've never been this bad before. Not even over Rociel was I this bad. And the damndest thing is, though I can explain why I like Ken, I really can't explain why I started liking him in the first place. I just do.

2. Writing on the bus. Why the bus? Because I travel on the bus a lot. And I need to do something with that time. So, writing. Yeah. Unless the bus is mad crowded and I can't, I'll always try and sit in the same seat, shove my bag on my lap, then start attempting to be creative. I am almost incapable of going out anywhere without my writing notebook and pen. And I don't like using anything but A5 spiral-bound red'n'black notebooks for my writing. They have the stiff covers I crave.

3. Listening to Moonflower over and over and over. Okay, I can listen to just about any song I love over and over and over, but for some reason Moonflower is the one I keep coming back to. And back to. And back to. It really worries me, the fixation I have on that song. It's definitely my favorite song in the world. Ever. But why is it? And why do I keep listening to it? And no, it's not because of the Ken thing. I liked Moonflower first.

4. Sporking badfic. Especially Mary Sue fic. This is a weird one. I mean, damn. I HATE badfic. It makes me sad and miserable and I don't like to see it anywhere. So I've decided my life's mission is to, um, hunt it down and spork it in the kidneys. Even though reading it pains me and it makes me want to rip out my eyeballs. Which makes absolutely no sense at all, but hey... that's why it's a weird habit!

5. Wearing my hair up. Okay, bit of background - I have long hair. It reaches my mind-back. I wear it up pretty much constantly. If I'm asleep it's in a low ponytail. If I'm awake it's in a, um, high ponytail or twin braids (think, um, Aya-chan). On the odd occasions I wear it loose I get frustrated by the way it gets caught in things and in the way, and quickly scrape it all back up and out the way. In which case, you say, why don't I cut it? And I proceed to EAT YOUR HEAD OFF for the blasphemy.


HASH(0x8c69434)
You died of either old age or a sickness. You are a
kind person and are smart. You have a good head
on your shoulders. But don't think that just
because your death wasn't exciting or extreme
that that makes you boring.


How did you die in your past life? (for everyone)
brought to you by Quizilla


... that's good. I want to have died lying down. It just seems like the right position for it.


Ahh. Pointlessness.

I think that's update-shaped enough, don't you?

Seriously when i need a good laugh i know i can go to your journal and find one! XDD

Of course you have to be imagination..otherwise where would i find a better tutor in the Art of Fan-dom? Killing you would just mean you'd die with a dream in your head and heart still...so really we can't stop that imganination of yours can we? No Ma'am.

Pointless but like a barrel of monkeys...but great fun...maybe i should change that to a barrel of Kens...

Whee! I'm funny! That's good to know. At least I must be doing something right. Even if I am slacking off and sitting here feeling dizzy. You know, this chair has no back. Not the best thing to sit on if you're dizzy. I keep worrying I'm about to topple over. Backwards. Which would be no fun at all.

I'm glad I got imagination. Most of the time my meme results make no sense, but I think this one breaks that general trend. And I don't think you exactly needed any help in developing yuour own talents in extreme and total fanboy JOY, but if I helped in any small way to the development of your fannish identity, that's no bad thing. And I can't be killed... I need to find someone to adopt my fanfics first. THEY MUST OUT. Even if it means someone has to finish them for me. THEY MUST OUT DAMMIT!

... don't tempt me. I've got some very... um... interesting thoughts in my head at the moment as it is. Damn Youji x Ken obsession.

Pointlessness is fun...^__^

[identity profile] sevendials.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
It certainly is.

I should update pointlessly more often. Just so I can say I'm well-versed in being extremely pointless. Then again, if this comment is anything to go by, I'm there already.

[identity profile] goddess-triad.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 01:17 am (UTC)(link)

Pointless posts have their advantages.

One, they're a whole lot of fun. Two there are always people who are pointless right back at you. :D

[identity profile] sevendials.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
That's exactly it...

There's a lot of fun to get out of just posting for the Hell of it. Must remember that. Besides, if I post more just because I can, then I get to do more stupid memes and memes make me smile. Plus, that way I can say 'this post wasn't pointless! Look, I did a meme'!

Holiday... *yearns*

Seuche... ♥

Ah, I know what you mean. Sometimes I update just for the hell of it; because I look at that empty box and go "waaah." I'll get over it eventually, but... see, at least you have stuff to contribute. I usually snark for five seconds and then stop.

Hee hee, I got "Imagination," too. Although my past life death was... not there. O.o Apparently I am a magical being in a human body and haven't died, just moved to the mortal plane to do a job. What? Oh. Okay. Sparkles.

Awww. Fangirling over Ken isn't a weird quirk. I do it all the time. >.> He has that... strange allure of "You Don't Know Why You Want to Lick Me, But Damn, You Sure Do Right Now." It might be the grass stains.

I am amazed and impressed you can write on a bus with a notebook. That's some serious dedication. O.O

Ooohhh, interesting about your hair. I'm the other way around. I always have to leave it down, it drives me insane if I have it pulled back-- it feels funny, my neck gets cold, I feel naked. XD So I usually let it hang loose constantly if I'm not at work-- it makes a big difference in how I look, as well. (But ohmygosh, your hair is so long, I love it. ♥ Prettiness.) Although I'd never cut mine, either. ♥

*huuugs* Enjoy your holiday, Miss laila. :D

[identity profile] sevendials.livejournal.com 2005-12-12 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
It'll come. *hugs* I am sure it will come. You deserve it, hon. :)

... And I updated. Just now. I like Chapter 19. Stuff happens. It sets up for more stuff happening in Chapter 20 and some other things that then happen later and it's fun. I won't say any more because... well, I guess you'd rather go read it than have me tell you everything that happens before you actually see it. I hope you like it, too, you know...

Updating for the Hell of it is what Live Journal is for. Seriously, most of the posts on this site are there just because people want them to be. And that's okay, and a lot of fun. And I honestly don't think there was any point to this post, but... hey, if you liked it...

(You know I love your posts. They are the stuff of happiness. ♥)

... okay. Well, that's cool too. I wanted something more interesting, though. I mean bah. That's how I want to die in this life... couldn't I have gotten something exciting in a past life? Maybe I should have said something more interesting about the train scenario. But sit there and wait for someone to call the police is pretty much what I would do. Brr, don't threaten me on public transport, meme, or I'll cry. But you deserve sparkles, you know?

Maybe it is the grass stains? I dunno. There's something incredibly appealing about Ken. I seriously think one of the cutest things about him is that he has absolutely no idea how amazingly cute he is.

(... kind of like him when he's covered in blood, too... ♥)

I do it mainly because just sitting on the bus is boring. I usually spend a long time on the bus. Damn you, London traffic.

I like having my hair loose - I think I look better with it loose, too - but... well, not if I'm actually trying to do anything, because then it just gets in my face and it annoys me. When I have my hair all scraped back, though, I look terrible, so even when it's back I normally pull the front bits out so they fall round my face. Otherwise I look terrible. I guess I just got used to having a cold neck, though. I would never cut my hair, though. No matter how annoying I find it sometimes. But yeah, it is pretty long now. And probably my best feature. Even if it does need dyeing again and, whoops, was meant to do that today. Ack. Oh well, I'll do it tomorrow. I wanted to update 'Seuche' more.

(The last time I got my hair cut short, it was a big mistake and I cried. Seriously. So I'm not doing that again.)

*hugs* Your holiday better hurry up and come, too!
