Hello,

Please leave a comment if you want to be friends!

I've started reading this book series called A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin. I'm about halway done of the first book and I'm loving it!!

I got interested in it when I heard that HBO is planning to make a tv series of it (pilot shooting begins in a few weeks). There's this cast picture that I keep checking while reading the book: http://i34.tinypic.com/15rm4xc.jpg Because it makes it easier to remember who is who. There are a lot of characters because there are a lot of families, friends and enemies involved. JUICY STUFF

It's an epic fantasy so there are some fantasy elements to the story, but more than anything it's about... people, and power. lol The characters aren't obviously 'good' or 'bad', but likeable characters sometimes make bad decisions, etc. (There are some really VILE characters, though.) Some themes are so dark that they make me go "OMG did that just - - that didn't just happen OMG OMG D:" But it's not just trying to shock the reader. All of the crap that happens leads to something bigger, and sometimes is even a blessing in disguise. MAYBE

Anyway I just wanted to mention this so that one day I can check back on when I first started reading these books or something ^___^ (And perhaps to recommend this series to others)

I have to say I usually have a lot of prejudice towards fantasy books because I love Lord of the Rings and really question if anything could be as awesome and epic. But A Song of Ice and Fire is completely different from LOTR and I'm really enjoying it... hu hu

My self-sim's son looks like Ross from Friends XDDD

Right??

lol

I HATE UNIVERSITY


THE MOMENT YOU THINK YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET SOME KIND OF A DEGREE

THEY THROW MORE COURSE CHANGES AND WHATEVER SHITTERY IN UR FACE

SOMETIMES I JUST FEEL LIKE FUCKING GIVING UP

LIKE I TRY SO HARD AND IT'S ALL IN VAIN

GOD

MY WHOLE TIME IN UNI IS JUST ONE BIG ***JOKE*** THAT ISN'T REALLY FUNNY AT ALL

LIKE I'M TRYING TO GRADUATE HERE AND THEY'RE MAKING IT SO FUCKING HARD

JUST ALWAYS, ALWAYS SOME NEW SHIT THAT THROWS AN OBSTACLE IN MY WAY

AND THEY WONDER WHY STUDENTS ARE DEPRESSED!!!!!!! GEE I WONDER WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IF I DON'T HAVE ALL MY COURSES PASSED BY NEXT SUMMER I'M GOING TO JUMP OFF A CLIFF OR SOMETHING.

HAY EVERYBODY, MAH IRC BUDDY T0FU HAS AN AWESOME SOLUTION TO THE WORLD'S OVERPOPULATION PROBLEM


HERE IT GOES


~WOMEN SHOULD BE ABLE TO MARRY MORE THAN ONE MAN~


Think about it!! It's not women who spread their seeds around, it's MEN!!
If, say, 8 *cough* men were bound to one woman, the result would be much less babies than if they each had a different wife and had 2-3 kids!!

THINK ABOUT IT! IT'S BRILLIANT!

It makes no sense that in some places it's ok for men to marry more than one wife, from overpopulation point of view! That way ONE man can produce a BILLION babies! THINK OF THE WORLD RESOURCES!!! D:

I'm stealing a meme from gunsandsmoke!

~IF MY LIFE WAS A ROM COM*~
(*romantic comedy)

Actually I don't want to make this realistic at all because
1)I don't think it would be fun to anxiously try to figure out who would be the best person to portray my real mom etc.
2)My life lacks romance so it's not like I can base this on real people or real situations
3)IT'S MORE FUN TO MAKE UP STUFF OKAY

WITH PICTURES AND BABBLING. I ACTUALLY HAVE A STORY OK

( On with the show )

Hahahaha I spent way too much time on this. But it was FUN!

IT'S CUUUUTE

WATCH IT

Anyway, today a happy story, a bird got hit 'n dizzy but escaped death!!!!

Dizzy bird


(Yes, I brought it water haha not that it took any)

Bird getting better


Soon after this I reached out to it with my hand (earlier my dad had poked it around but it was too dizzy to react) and it flew away to a nearby tree :D :D :D

Happy~~~

I was worried because straight after the accident it looked like it was really suffering T_T

Ok I got Lady Gaga's album and I'm really liking it xD


I LIKE POP AND I CAN'T STOP

LOL WTF Freddie got evicted!! Aw now I'll never see him again.


At least now I don't have to watch BBUK until Bea is out (I can't stand her voice nor face and sadly the show is now all about her and her fake tears).

Man after she had been like 2 days in the house I started thinking that there's something suspicious about her, she's not what she claims or at first appears to be (this likeable lalala hippie girl). And I was so right!! She turned out to be a total hypocritical self-centered monster. I feel sorry for anyone who has to spend more than 5 seconds in her presence. Especially those who at first fail to see her true nature and become involved with her somehow, cuz they're in for a rude awakening.

The reason why I disliked Freddie for a while was also Bea. Ya know shitty people poison good people by association. It was really frustrating to see Freddy pretty much blindly supporting someone who did NOT deserve any of it; it felt like Freddie lost his previous capability of seeing people's true characters and through their bullshit and that was so very disappointing! He just became any guy who follows THE PEEN instead of THE BRAIN. And his support for Bea was all in vain because Bea, at no point, was friendship-loyal to him the same way he was for her. She was using him, he was ready to get into heated arguments for her. She wasn't worth it and I knew it all the time and couldn't do anything to get some sense into him. That was frustrating.

It was also crappy that Freddie got overconfident and it was socially stupid of him to announce stuff like he's never going to be evicted. And I do think that he sometimes spent too much time talking about "gameplans" and other housemates. BUT I still know that deep down Freddie's a good guy, he's just not perfect. lol He was kind of driven to the situation where he had to be suspicious of everyone because at first, he used to be nominated every single week. And I think that lead to the gameplan talks, etc. When Bea came in, it's like Freddie was finally in a bit of power position, which totally didn't fit him at all. I really think Bea fucked up his game for him. Well, good thing she's hated so whenever she comes out she'll find out that her crocodile tears won't help no mo.

And she is not a fucking hippie, she just likes the fashion!!! lol She even puts on stupid hair extensions sometimes to look more hippielike, it's so pathetic.

Uh. So Freddie started returning more to his old self after finding out in a brutal way what kind of person Bea really is. And that's when I started liking him again. But it was too late, he got evicted. Aw bugger

ANYWAY time to do other stuff!!


EDIT:
OMG I KNEW IT, I WROTE THIS BEFORE
"I just hope he doesn't suddenly change or become too confident because of surviving evictions, because the public doesn't like housemates who are certain that they're going to stay. lol"
WHYYYYYY WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO IT FREDSTER

( Cat )

Lost a good friend last night

Rest in peace, Jabronisaur


Can't say more now because I don't want to cry again D:

Lol I'm so glad I decided to make that list about poupee items that look good when worn, because it makes shopping so much easier >_< I used to spend ages wondering whether to buy something or not, now I can just check the list. And every time I buy one of the items it's like I've achieved something because I can cross it over from my list XD It's like playing an endless game of bingo~

♥ DAILY FREDDIE LOVE ♥
(Not that I will post daily, but it's a sweet thought)
I hope that at least one less person nominates him this week. I know he'll be up again, but ah if just one less person nominated him! It would be a tiny victory. (Last time he got whopping 9 nominations, unless I remember wrong)

No other stuff to discuss. Except we have a water pipe problem at home D: Ackkkk more stuff to fix.

I LOVE HAPPY JPOP!!! AHHH

I've been watching Big Brother UK and I love this guy:



He's just as weird as he looks. Very very eccentric and not good at social situations, at least when he's talking to more than one person. Sometimes he'll burst into a song and when he eats he makes these "mmMmmmmmhh" sounds (he says it's because he's a very sexual person LOL). BUT he's very intelligent, sweet and open-minded; he's willing to hear other people's opinions and doesn't act like a total douche. He never makes fun of others or call other people names.

Unfortunately, most of his fellow housemates seem to detest him and he has been nominated to face eviction every week so far. Luckily he's got to stay every week because the public sees that he's been unfairly judged early by some people; these people make fun of him (of course, they always claim that it's "just a joke, don't be so serious") and just don't give him a chance to show what a good person he really is. Other people in the house have shown so much disrespect towards others, started arguments and generally acted like total tards, yet they nominate Freddie. It's so fucking unfair. But Freddie, he understands it as strategy, he doesn't go around whining about it and is planning to fight it. Good for him!

(A part of the reason why other housemates dislike him could also be that he comes from a rich family, is well-educated and has a wide vocabulary. I guess that makes them resent him from the start. It sucks)

Idk he basically reminds me a lot about some friends I've had in the past at school. Not popular with the huge crowd, but absolutely lovely individuals if you get to know them, people who would never backstab and so on. I've got a major soft spot for him. I often have favourites in these reality tv shows, but I never think I would like to meet them. Freddie, however, I'd actually like to meet. XD

Actually his name isn't Freddie anymore, he faced a challenge to legally change it into Halfwit to become a housemate and he did it. LOL But I don't want to use that Halfwit name here because the other housemates have been changing it into Dipshit or w/e behind his back and it's so unnecessary and childish and uh, I don't want to use it because it reminds me of that :P



I hope he keeps surviving in the house. He is the ultimate underdog inside the house and it would be so awesome if he made it to the finals, or even won. I just hope he doesn't suddenly change or become too confident because of surviving evictions, because the public doesn't like housemates who are certain that they're going to stay. lol

Lol you may just ignore this

I went through a whole bunch of modeled poupee item pics to make a list of items that actually look good when worn; items that I don't have yet and should 'buy' if I see them up for a cheap price! ^_^ Luckily some of them are very cheap items that "everybody has".

I'm just posting them here because it's easier to see them in one place this way than to have to open them on the computer.

Btw if anyone is interested in joining Poupee, please let me invite you! We both benefit! XD You get more ribbons than if you just register yourself and I get a gift for inviting.

My doll :D http://pupe.ameba.jp/profile/fLkaH2BIP94b/

Anyway huge pics behind cut
