Because I like to avoid all work, I decided to make a post for an introduction to all those new to my livejournal. I don't have much in my lj, but just in case someone doesn't want to go through ALL my past entries to find something interesting or want to just go through all the tags. Instead, I nipped that thought in the bud, and have a compilation of all my posts categorized.

But first of all...

WELCOME TO MY LIVEJOURNAL!
And enjoy the ride.


cynicalism would like you to know that she helped come up with the phrase. (last friends only had "semi-friends (with benefits) only")
bitofpixiedust would like you to know that the benefits are great x9.
partypaprika would like you to know that tinyangl is easier than Jin with goth chicks in LA. (Also, that tinyangl flashes people more than Arashi's Tokyo Dome outfits.)
imwahyou would like you to know that tinyangl is very M. (tinyangl would like you all to know that this is sadly true.)

The Fic Wish List Meme

Rules: List 1-10 pairings/prompts that you have been dying to read. Maybe it's a really rare pairing or something you've requested on any of the past smut memes which haven't been fulfilled. When you see this posted on your friends' journals, you may do one of the following:

- Write it.
- Link to one that's already been written, whether by you or someone else.
- Nothing, but karma will get you. >_>

There are no length or rating limits, and prompts may be duplicated (PLEASE). Be specific in your prompts particularly in reference to preferred smut content, seme/uke order, and any other requirements that may hinder your appreciation of the fic.

There is no deadline for this, but once your ten prompts have been written to your satisfaction you are welcome to make a new post starting over. You may write your own prompts if you want. If your tastes change, you can certainly switch out one prompt for another at any time.

This was surprisingly hard for me to write up. I never thought I'd get less greedy in my old!fandom age. Please to make your own lists! The reason I wanted to do this is so people could make their lists and I would love to contribute as much as I could. (I am in love with fandom lately, ideky.) Link me to your lists and I'd love to link it here! (even if we don't know each other~) Also, sorry about the bad timing, I know there are a lot of exchanges at the moment. XDDDDD But I couldn't quite resist. ::cough::

Before that though~

i. I've been obsessively tracking the je_wish meme. (not jewish which i accidentally tweeted a day or two ago which lead to some confusion and all around LOLs.) I like helping others where I can and being helped in a few matters myself. :D The only thing I wish I could manage was weibo and those damn Arashi paper dolls. I HAVE SO MUCH WANT, DAMNIT. (Although, what type of paper should I use? Because obvs, regular paper isn't hard enough. ::ponders::) Anyway, if you have any wishes, feel free to post there! I'm sure all the people participating are just as helpful~ ♥ (maybe it'll even be me! :D)

ii. I spent a good amount of time yesterday working on my writing journal, kakimakuru. More so on my new shiny fic index!!! All my drabbles are there, so that's the only reason it looks so loaded, lolol. I also spent time xposting my fics from the J!Actress Anon Meme. All of which I'm pretty sure everyone knew I wrote. lolol And a bunch of other things, but whatever. XD

iii. I was in the mood for a drabble-off after I'd been looking through old drabbles I'd written with Alena in that time (and I haven't written all month)! So I asked on Twitter what day would be good and Nikki voted Sunday. So here it is!!! :DDDDDDDDDD

DRABBLE-OFF TIME: (Anyone can play!)
Rule: The first drabble had a prompt, but following drabbles had to take its prompt from the drabble before it, and the other person supplied the pairing.
Examples of drabble-offs are here and here. It may get a little confusing because I've never done this via LJ. But meh. Craziness is fun? XDDDDDD

AKA, please to feel free to prompt me. And we'll take it from there.

Despite the fact that my birthday was technically a week ago, I didn't get a chance to actually celebrate it until this weekend!

i. On Saturday, went to eat Korean BBQ at Kunjip which was fucking amazing (thanks to Ri and Riha for the suggestion). There were so many side dishes and we ordered three different bbq meats. It was the best meal ever. I would definitely not protest going again. We ate so much so quickly that I'm surprised we were even able to walk out of there. *___________________* And then afterwards, we went to karaoke. But not just any karaoke, a karaoke bar. Which had a stage. (We went to Radio Star.) It was so much fun. My group of friends only sang three songs technically (I ended up singing Moves like Jagger. Thankfully not on stage because FUCK, I was shaking in my seat as I was singing it. o.o) but we sang along to almost every song we knew. Hell, we were probably the loudest bitches in that whole entire place. That said, the group in front of us because pretty much our best friends. Any time they'd go on stage, we would be WHOOPING like nobody's business. And if we were on stage (I did in fact go up at least once--during Lady Gaga's Bad Romance), they would join us or cheer us on. IT WAS AWESOME. I had so much fun and I think it worked really well because of the group in front of us. So great. It's really too bad that we had to cut the night short on my account. DDDD: If I didn't have to go back upstate, I would've stayed much much longer. *____________*

ii. Then on Sunday was lunch with the family and C (she stayed over at my house this weekend) which was fun! It was Easter Sunday though so Palisades Mall had very slim pickings in terms of stores open. XD Otherwise, Sunday was very quiet. lol Doesn't make it any less awesome~ :D

P.S. Before I forget! Update on the sister pregnancy story. My sister came home with me on Saturday night after the celebrations. Parents saw she was pregnant (at 7 months, it's kind of obvious lol). Mom apparently talked to AR about it Sunday morning (OMG, SHE DIDN'T NEED ME TO TRANSLATE?! WHAT IS THIS WORLD--CAN WE STAY HERE FOREVER?!) and apparently, she wants 1) AR to move back home and 2) AR to give away her dog. lol The answer to both was no. XDDDDD But otherwise, there was no yelling; mom seemed excited at the prospect of a grandkid. AND OH HAY NOW I CAN TALK ABOUT IT WITHOUT BEING WORRIED SOMEONE WILL TELL MY PARENTS. LOL SOMEHOW--BECAUSE ALL OF YOU HAVE HER NUMBER ON SPEED DIAL. XDDDDD

iii. Um.... Media-wise, quick run through. Saw the movie Usagi Drop which was cute on Matsuyama/Ashida Mana's part. I couldn't believe this was filmed by SABU though because other than the random daydreams that happened like twice, it wasn't as bizarre as he usually goes. Granted, my knowledge of him are only his cracktastic stuff so he's probably done something more normal. Maybe. XDDDD It was cute. Shipped Matsuyama/Karina for a bit, but didn't think anything would really come from it. Although then Melissa told me what happens in the manga and I proceeded to get squicked out. XDDDD

Finished Saikou no Jinsei no Owarikatta. Um. 1) I called ghost. 2) Wish Yamapi had said at one point, "I see dead people." 3) LOLED OFF MY ASS AT IWATA SAYING HE HAS A CONNECTION (won't say exactly what because that's spoilery) BUT YAMAPI'S "EH?!" FACE WAS THE BEST. 4) Wish we'd seen more Yamapi/Eikura at the end, but what we got was cute. NOW GIVE ME FIC. 5) Um. I don't have a five. I just thought it'd be a good number to end on.

Then I saw two drama SPs: SPEC and Unfair. First the Unfair one because it was pointless in the scheme of things. (Oh wait, I saw the Unfair Movie too. That'll be after.) It was nice seeing Kitano Kii; it sounded like she dropped her voice for this role? But I could be mistaken. Otherwise, whatever events happened here really didn't connect to the movie. Which, btw, ;alsdkjfalskdjflaskdjf So much anger at that ending. I don't even want to talk about it because I'm rather annoyed. I get that now Yukihira has all the power, but it's still fucking frustrating as hell. Especially when we see who the villains are. I knew 2/3. That 1/3rd though was the FUCKING MOST ANNOYING THING EVER. DDDDD: I hated it.

As for SPEC, I wish I'd waited until I knew I could watch the movie, because it was damned amazing that the wait for the movie is now just painful. It was kind of that epic. We find out Touma's SPEC, we see it in action. We have this crazy-ass case. We see all these people we've seen before. We see the connection between Touma/Sebumi get stronger. IT IS JUST PERFECT. A;LSKDJFALKSDJFKASJDF I cannot even begin to tell you how much you need to see this if you haven't. And by this, I mean the whole entire series because it's perfect. I mean, even Masi Oka wants to bring it to America! (Although an American!Touma will probably be nothing like Touma. Just saying. >.>) That said, I'd be interested.

I almost forgot to add: Gossip Girl. DAIR IS PERFECT. PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT. And they are going to ruin it somehow, but until then, CAN WE HAVE BLAIR REMAINING HAPPY AND SMILY. AND DAN BEING AN AWESOME BF? AND THEM ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT THEIR ISSUES AND BEING HONEST? That would be great, thanks. *_____________* (Serena was a grade-A bitch in this ep. What a damn hypocrite. I don't even care much for Lola, but the way she was treating her was MESSED UP. >.>)

Okay, that's it for me! Back to work I go. D:

I watched the movie Moteki today and it was fucking fabulous. Cannot even begin to tell you how much I thoroughly enjoyed it.

( My thoughts (ALL SORTS OF SPOILERY) plus some caps! )

I lost track towards the middle about what i was saying--all the serious thoughts. (I think I had thoughts on Rumiko, but I'm too lazy to type them all up.) So we'll just leave it at this. THIS WAS AN AMAZING MOVIE. Hysterical and seriously worth the watch. It is not necessary to watch the drama. (But i probably will soon anyway.) And there are moments when Yukiyo deserves to be smacked, but you know what, I still kind of adore him. Yes. And Masami needs to make out with ppl like she did in this movie more. Meow.

P.S. J!Actress Anon Meme is still going on! I've written way too many that are so obviously me. >.>

J!Actress Anon Meme!

You know you want to request and/or write. :DDDDD

no, this is not to satisfy my cravings for het. obviously not.

...And the sneezing is giving me a headache. Plus, I'm hungry and it's only 9:15am. It's days like this that I wish I ate breakfast more often. I may even leave after writing this post just to find something to eat. I know there's a cart around the corner--I'm sure their bagel with cream cheese can't be that terrible. Forget this, I went in between writing up THG section. XD TOO HUNGRY. (in case you're curious, the bagel was meh.)

i. My AU Prompt Meme is still going on! I've been writing steadily for the past few days so please know that even if I haven't gotten to your prompt (even though the only two left are both for Cyn >.>), I will get to it eventually! I promise that much. So please feel free to prompt! It seems 4/5 are to be continued drabbles (even though it was supposed to just be snippets, but my brain doesn't seem to agree).

ii. Guys. In less than a week I'll be 25. I know a bunch of you are already past that age, but this is weird for me. I can still remember being 14 and writing about 22-year-olds like they were adults. IDK. I know it's weird to say, but I don't know if I'm ready. ( cut for weird whining. )

iii. The Hunger Games: I went to see this movie last Friday, the day it came out, with C. ( Our theater was filled with THREE different classes. )

P.S. I may have said (okay, I did say) that I would mod newsficcon. Am I crazy? Yes. Will I enjoy every second of hecticness that comes with modding a fic exchange? Probably. Will I whine the entire way through? More than likely. lolol But it'll be exciting! I'm keeping the same schedule pretty much so expect sign-ups in mid-May! :D
P.P.S. Since I took this up, I decided not to sign up for je_otherworlds, but boy will I be following the shit out of that exchange, lol. AUs all the way?

I was contemplating signing up for je_otherworlds again, but I'm not sure I could manage. So instead, give me an AU prompt and I'll write you a snippet for it. (Characters, Pairings highly recommended.) Because this AU writing meme is my ultimate favorite. Usual suspects: JE, most J-dramas, American shows, idek what else. I reserve the right to ask you for another option.

Please do prompt! I'll do my best to get to everyone. If I can. o.o

P.S. my "meme whore at work" is super true today because i'm posting this (like most of my other posts) at work! >.< SO BORED.

EDIT
Current wordcount: 4897
- Tegomass rain!angels crossover with Zenkai Girl for ryogrande (2 parts)
- Ohno/Maki own a bakery (although I hadn't gotten to that point yet XD) for sinonymity (3 parts--possibly ongoing)
- Dan/Blair where Dan has a crush on Blair instead of Serena for sinonymity (4 parts)
- JE!Once Upon a Time with Maki/Meisa as Snow White/Red for sinonymity (1 part--possibly ongoing)
- JE/JActress/Leverage crossover for boycottbananas (2 parts--possibly ongoing)

i. First of all. je_whiteday is done posting!!! T.T Has been for the past 3 days, lol, but still. Every year, I love doing this exchange because there's really not that much quality het outside of it. And this year, it seems like there was EXTRA QUALITY. *____________* So please go check it out if you already haven't!!! There's some good fic--largely Arashi, but that doesn't mean that it isn't good~ And please be sure to comment! I haven't yet, but I'm going to wait till reveals before I say anything. lolol

Speaking of Arashi, I, ofc, wrote a fic for the exchange this year! And irregularly (kind of), I wrote Arashi. Like, there's no other Johnny's boy anywhere. :D If you can guess which one I wrote, you get a cookie! And maybe even a drabble~ ♥♥♥

ii. So this past week, NYC was filled with fangirls and it was glorious. First, brief thing on Jin's concert. Had fun. He lipsynced most of the concert (the poor baby--i half-think he was sick? but don't take my word for it). I sat in my awesome 3rd row chair and danced my ass off--while sitting. I'm sure I looked like a flailing fool to everyone else, but I didn't give a shit. Had a blast. Best parts: ppl throwing underwear onto the stage towards the end of the concert. Jin's face. I was sitting and I was still dying over his expression. Also, at the end of the concert (after the encore even), Jin telling us to all get drink and horny. I think that's because that's what he was going to do afterwards. He wanted us to do the same. ♥♥ lol

After the concert, met up with Ri and Riha and Filmi and others! ♥ We had dinner at this place called Bangkok House which was pretty good--food-wise, price-wise, and in my case, drink-wise. Got a mango mojito which was more on the mojito than it was on the mango, lol, but whatever. Needed a drink after the fuck-for-all workday I'd had earlier. The next time I met up with the girls was on Saturday where a hunt for bubble tea in mid-Manhattan turned out to be the adventure of a freaking lifetime. We planned to walk from their hotel on 56th and Broadway to 45th and Lexington. For my New Yorker friends, you know that that is NOTHING. 11 blocks down, a few avenues over. Shouldn't take that long. Except it was St. Patrick's day and there was a parade down 5th avenue. And ohmygod, it really was like walking through a damn maze. That said, we did actually manage to get to Coco, this bubble tea place near Grand Central. SO GOOD. OHMYGOD. I never knew it excited. And now that I do know, I WILL BE GOING THERE MORE OFTEN. Esp with spring/summer approaching.

Anyway, so much fun! It was great chatting about Johnny's/dramas/etc. We talked a bit about Whiteday since it had been running--or rather it's still (until reveals). So that was fun! ♥ I just enjoyed every bit of it. :D Next JE event, I'm so there! ♥

iii. idk anymore. I'm sure I have other shit to talk about (I have a draft in my writing folder for dramas/movie that I wanted to write about--but not in this post). Um. I'm ahead in my month's getyourwordsout for once. Hoping I can keep up this streak and, you know, not fail. lol

...Because RL is too boring to talk about.

I have hit this nice groove this season when it comes to balancing my usual American shows with J-dramas in that throughout the week, I will watch my shows (a quarter in real time, most on my day off or after work) and every other weekend (or more), I'll catch up on my jdramas. It's usually more than that because I find I like marathoning more than watching week to week. lol

( Cut for my American shows! Some have a little, some have a lot. In order of writing - NCIS LA, New Girl, How I Met Your Mother, Gossip Girl (oh are you surprised?), Hawaii Five-0!!! I know so much. )

Can you guys believe that Jin's concert is two weeks away? !!!!! I'm excited. :D Quick question to those going to the concerts in New York. I know there was talk about a meet-up but has a day been chosen, because I totally want to plan out that week since I'll have to decide my work days too. lol So let me know! I know a couple people have standing tickets so the day of the concert, Thursday, is probably out. So would Friday be better? Definitely let me know. :D

P.S. HOW EXCITED AM I FOR THE HUNGER GAMES MOVIE?! I saw the clip today of Katniss with the Gamemakers (even though I had vowed to myself I wouldn't--see how fast that folded) and it was glorious. Combine that with the trailers and the writer's approval of the movie, I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THIS. I wish someone would watch it with me but fuck this shit. I want to see it the day of--alone or with someone, idec.
P.P.S. Had to split up this post so next ep will be jdramas and My Week With Marilyn which, brief warning, I ADORED. *_______________*

i. Tuesdays seem to be a regular thing now ever since I started watching Gossip Girl regularly. (I can't say I don't anymore--or at least, it's far past that point because it's been about a month. And I've slipped so far down my stupid slide to horribleness that this is just it.) ( but what a fucking way to go. )

I'm pretty sure I meant to be more coherent, but as you can tell, that didn't quite work out. Oh, I forgot to mention, Dan's stupid for not having more than one copy of his proposal. Really?! (Also, Dan's hair is getting a little unruly. XD I wouldn't mind a little snipping here and there.)

Until the show ruins Dair (because they will, I have absolutely no damn faith in them--not because I know from first-hand experience, but because shows just have to have drama in them), I will probably be regularly posting about GG and I apologize for that in advance. if i had my way, i would like to NOT be as obsessed as I am. >.>

ii. Watashi ga Renai Dekinai Riyuu: I managed to marathon the remainder of this drama (eps 3-10) in the past week and it was glorious. ( I was going to write about this last post, but I thought I'd just hold off and post once I got to the end. )

iii. This past weekend, for President's day weekend, my cousin from West Point came to stay. It was fun but a little hectic since I had to take him around both Saturday and Sunday. He is basically fail though and didn't come up with anything for me to go off on places he'd want to see. So instead, I had to come up with random places that I hadn't brought him to the last time he visited. It was pretty fun; I am just awkward as a human being so our conversations would taper off and I would um and uh every time there were bouts of silence. Thankfully, C came both days and she's always been awesome at keeping conversation going. (Which is why I invited her out, thank god she accepted.) What was awesome about this though is that I went to two places that I hadn't been to before. Walked across Brooklyn Bridge and then the 9/11 Memorial. Both were fascinating. Brooklyn Bridge wasn't as long a walk as I thought it would be! Half an hour walk and that's even at our leisurely pace. All in all, super fun! :D Lots of good food and good company. ♥♥♥

i. This was originally going to be my third point, but I have been ecstatic since yesterday night so it bumps everything else up. ( what am i talking about? THE EPICNESS OF MY ICON FROM LAST NIGHT'S GG EP, OFC. )

Long story short (no seriously, how did i write so many paragraphs worth?!), my OTP right now is flawless even if they're pulling shit with Dan's character. ♥♥♥ EPIC. ♥♥♥ ("HOW CAN SHE NOT LOVE YOU AFTER THAT?")

P.S. Apparently Ed Westwick and Penn Badgley were asked which of their characters loves Blair more, and ED POINTED AT PENN. *____________*
P.P.S. It makes me laugh when I read ppl's comments about how this came out of left field. Because, I'm sorry, have you not noticed Blair/Dan getting closer and closer? Really? I don't even WATCH THE SHOW (I cannot say this for much longer) and I can even see they've gotten much closer than they were say Season 1. lol

ii. So I've also been watching dramas (ahahaha, go figure on that) and have watched the first 5 eps of Hungry! ( cut for spoilers )

iii. RL stuff. My co-worker J-I left last week. T.T sad sad days esp because she was the first real co-worker friend I'd made (minus C because it doesn't count when we were friends before the fact). She's moving to Florida because of her hubby's new job and D: We had a memorial drink afterwards along with another co-worker!friend W. T.T SO HARD NOT TO CRY, I'LL BE HONEST. She was such a cool person and it was fun spending lunchtime and the very rare drinks after work. ♥♥ She even worked on our floor so it was pretty easy to stop by and chat a little in the middle of the work day. I can't believe she's gone now. also, and you didn't hear this from me, obvs, but w has the best gossip in this building. fascinating.

That's it really for the title. *_________* I mean, i wasn't sick of my last one, but I'm not entirely sure it showed up because it was past my default 15. lolol (it showed up for me anyway and that's good enough. Cough.)

i. I watched eps 2-3 of Strawberry Night last night and DUDE, this drama only serves to infuriate me. ( not because of the drama, but because of ONE particular character. )

ii. Update on real life, I suppose. I'm applying for another position in my company. It'll be a full time job though! My boss is really pushing for me to move for it because she's pretty positive that my job is pretty much on the line. XD So here's to hoping. *fingers crossed* (this was most definitely not my original second point, but I can't remember what it actually is so...this is it now. lol)

iii. So of course, I have to talk about Jin/Meisa getting married, because holy fuck that came out of the damn blue. First of all, I wish them the best. If they're happy together, then they definitely deserve to be with each other. and i shipped that a bit but whatever. I'm just entirely hoping this was a longer relationship then when we first got the rumor they were dating. lol If so, man they kept that secret. XD I do have a theory though about the pregnancy. ( cut because it's a weird theory. and because I am in a RAMBLING mood today. )

That's really it for now! I think I am rambling today. o.o I hope this doesn't carry on through the rest of the day, lol.

i. For those that don't know (although how could you not?), I am painfully obsessed with Dan/Blair from Gossip Girl. It has gotten to the point that now they are my default icon on twitter and Livejournal (the icon I'm using for this post even). I would like to point out that I don't watch Gossip Girl (a fact that is kind of becoming moot as I have watch the last two episodes in full and will probably continue to do so until they stop having cute Dair scenes--which they hopefully will not or hopefully will so I can stop watching this ridiculous show). Anyway, yesterday, spoiler photos came out for a future ep of GG (Cyn tells me it's 5x19 or 5x20) and I have further slipped down the slippery slope that is the awesomeness of Dan/Blair to the point that I have written drabbles at her on g-chat, because ALL I WANT IS HAPPINESS. T.T In other words, there is no real use to this first point other than to whine and whine about how obsessed I've become towards a pairing that I really just want to be endgame, that they keep teasing over my head while they persist on having Chuck/Blair scenes where all they do is say I love you, we can't be together, but we still love each other. UGHUGHUGH. JUST GIVE ME DAN/BLAIR BANTER WHERE THEY ACTUALLY GROW AS A PAIR TOGETHER. THANKS. ;alskdfjalkjflaskdjflkasjdf

(Also, am hating the insinuation that Dan may have sent in the video. I may have to find the episode and rewatch the scene leading up to the video leak, because in my head, he had no opportunity to do it. Like, he wasn't even NEAR the room the video camera was in. In my head, it was Blair's mother, because just like she brought in Chuck, she was hoping it'd be the extra nail? But idk if she'd send things onto GG. Or maybe it was one of the adults?! idk. I just don't buy that it's Dan, because even if I haven't seen the show and don't know much characterization-wise, it just doesn't seem to fit with what little I've noticed about his character. >.> Just saying.)

ii. ...I have nothing else to really talk about. No, seriously. I just wanted to post about Dair and how much I want fic and how much I want happy scenes, and how excited I am for the potential future. Just it.

iii. I also want these booties from Charlotte Russe. I want them so badly that I am contemplating taking my lunch break JUST to go over to Charlotte Russe in hopes of finding them. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I WANT THEM SO MUCH. *________________*

P.S. I finally saw Yamapi's tour documentary yesterday (Yes, I know it's been forever, I am a slow concert watcher, okay?). I totally fucking cried when the audience started singing Love Song and even though he didn't have the backing track, Yamapi came back onstage and sang it with them acapella. I bawled. I'm not even going to lie. Yamapi has that power over me. T.T (I also bawled when you saw shots of the girls crying after the concert. I cried because I knew that if I'd been there, I'd be crying along with them. I NEED TO GO TO A YAMAPI CONCERT, DAMNIT.)

i. Well, only in this first point, because in general, my life is boring. But, ohmygod, there is a turf war going on at work. AND IT IS HYSTERICAL. ( cut for ridiculousness and convoluted story-telling. )

ii. So the drama that everyone's missing out on, probably because it sounds super weird. Risou no Musuko. I watched the first episode a few days ago and it is brilliant. ( Cut for potential spoilers. )

iii. SMAPxSMAP - actors/actresses round table talk. now subbed over here!!!! I can't even talking about how much I adored this. I have always loved actors/actresses relationships (not even romantic, friendships) and this was beautiful. Essentially there was a collection of actors/actresses (SMAP included) and they discussed their own personal responses to the top 10 questions that fans always wanted to know the answer to. BEST PERSON THERE WAS BY FAR TAKEUCHI YUKO. *__________* Both because of what she had to say but also because of how the others interacted with her. Like, say, Kusanagi confessing to her right there. And then Shingo doing so afterwards and Tsuyoshi blocking Shingo's view of her and telling him to quit it. OHMYGOD SO AWESOME. *________* I could go on and on about how much love this was, but I think it deserves a watch. SO GO NOW. ♥♥♥

P.S. Discovered my first love is married and has a child. Um. Consider my mind blown.
P.P.S. If you haven't listened to/watched A.B.C.-Z's Suna no Glass, you are MISSING OUT. *_________*

...Have been back for a while actually (last Saturday) but as always, the laziness bug hit and obvs, it's too lazy to write up a post. >.>

i. So yeah, I went to Puerto Rico. Came back in one piece too! Isn't that a good sign? I will probably write up a post on that eventually. (which, hell, will never happen because i fail so much like that. >.>) Um. So yeah. Fun times. Fake-Kayaking at Bio-Bay in Fajardo. Treking in El Yunque Rainforest to get to La Mina Falls. Wading in Luquillo Beach. Walking around the two forts in Old San Juan. Getting wasted on the last night and throwing up for a good two hours. >.> Like I said, fun times. lolol (I also realized that ever since I graduated, I have gone on a big trip once every year. Next year is the Philippines!!! Now you know that one will be epic. o.o)

ii. Dramas! Yesterday, I took the time to catch up on the dramas I really wanted to watch this season. I'm only missing Risou no Musuko.
- 13sai no Hello Work: ( cut for spoilers. )

- Ending Planner: ( rinse and repeat. )

- Lucky Seven: ( click this in slow motionnnnnnn )

iii. Buffy Season 2 Trailer


Someone linked to this in Mark Watches and I spent a good 20+ minutes watching all of the Buffy ones and then all of the Angel ones. They were all so damn brilliant and well compiled. I am embedding because it is totally worth the watch and you should all check it out. :D (Now though it makes me wish there were trailers like these for all the shows I watch because I'm pretty sure they would all be epic. And if they exist, please link because I would love to watch them.)

P.S. I actually watched the entirety of the most recent Gossip Girl episode. Episode 100 at that! And... Um. Um. No words. I luckily had Cyn to hold my hand through it as I mentally tried to kill people off chuckchuckchuck, but the ending was by far worth every single damn second of it. And I'm hoping the next episode will be the SAME WAY. a;sldkjfalskdfj (i'll probably bend and watch all of that episode too. >.>)

P.P.S. I was watching this romantic short with Naka Riisa that was about first loves, and it made me nostalgic for my first love. He was a classmate of mine from 5th-8th grade and 2 (and a half of the 3rd) out of 4 years, I crushed on him something terrible. >.< The first year, we tormented each other (because, dude, isn't that what kids do?) We ... er... kind of went out the second year, but I don't think either of us really considered it going out after that year passed. XD (Dude, our 7th grade teacher even shipped us. And yes, that is as creepy as it sounds. See, we were in different classes so when we switched classrooms for the other teacher's classes, he always had my desk. And when I returned to my original desk, that teacher would be like "T was sitting there." Because dude, I didn't know that myself. Anyway, T would actually scribble notes in the inside of my desk, so he wasn't too far off. XD) Sometimes, I wonder what things would be like now.

What were your first loves like?

I'm good. In San Juan, Puerto Rico and all. :D

I meant to post before I left on Friday or Saturday morning, but I ran out of time and fast. Last Friday was possibly the most hectic day we'd had at work in the longest time. We had two researchers come in--one was a complete *insert preferable curse word here* and well, just plain annoying. He had us running around like nobody's business. To the point that we were like... WHAT THE HELL?! after he left. Seriously, least amount of fun ever. >.> And in between researchers, we, of course, had our own work that we had to deal with. After work, we had to take out money from the bank for the mentioned trip above. Which took us a little bit of time as well. Then C and I had made plans with our co-workers to drink a little (holy hell is co-worker!W absolutely crazy when you've gotten drinks and pot into her). It was definitely fun though. Then there was dinner after that at around 7 for Sh. It was actually a going-away party for her because she's moving upstate. DDDD: So even though C and I were hands-down exhausted, we were like, we can't MISS this. She leaves before we come BACK. DDDD: So there wouldn't be another opportunity to celebrate and whatnot.

So Saturday was my flight to PR! :D Except it was snowing up a storm. D: But my dad and I got to the airport (after picking up C and P, and then going back to C's place because she forgot her idea) around 1, which was 2 hours and a half before our flight! :D Our plane even boarded on time!! :D Except then we were grounded for like an hour, waiting for "our turn" to use the runway. It was kind of ridiculous. D: When we landed (finally), it was hot and humid here. Kind of a crazy temperature change especially after leaving snowy New York. >.>

Today, we chose to stay close to our hostel in Old San Juan and went to go see the two forts at the ends of the island. Dude, I am still exhausted. Granted, we started about 10:30 and only finally stopped moving at around 4 something. MY LEGS HURT. o.o but it's so gorgeous here. The colors of the buildings are all these pastels (apparently Spanish colonial style buildings here) and the water is this beautiful blue, almost green color that we can see crashing against the shore. We're all kind of anticipating our day at the beach because it is sure to be amazing.

Anyway, just wanted to write some things up. Let you all know I'm still alive in PR and that IT IS AMAZING. *______________* Now I am going to lie in bed for a bit before we possibly head to Paseo de la Princesa. ♥

...But i just saw the season finale of Sherlock (season2) right now and i don't know how i can move past this.

I hate that these seasons are only 3 episodes long. and because of that each episode is so good, it hurts your heart at the end. and this one? definitely does the trick. T.T.T.T.T.T.T can i just call a collective talk about it here? because NEED. t.t

i've also seen other things like Strawberry Night's first ep. all of Perfect Report and all of Hunter. and you know, other things. but none of this is important. BECAUSE SHERLOCK. AND WATSON. AND TEARS. T.T.T.T

now to go about the rest of my day somehow. D:

P.S. Also, it is just my luck that Jin's NY tickets are going on sale THE DAY I LEAVE FOR PUERTO RICO. Also, at the EXACT TIME I was expecting to leave my house. I guess I'll just have to leave a half hour later, SO I CAN BUY MY FUCKING TICKETS. so annoying. D: (wish i could buy pre-sale because those at least go on sale ....thursday, i believe. D:)
