sambot: i made it up friend
fitz: oh.
fitz: well i'll just steal it from you...
annabel: yeah me too...
sambot: remember to CREDIT twp.
Favourite:
Anime: Loveless. For about three months afterwards I walked around looking at the people I know and feeling sad that they don't have ears. It's like we've all been horribly, horribly cheated. Special mention to Ouran High School Host Club, but I think those were the only two anime I watched all the way through this year. I finished Prince of Tennis and started Naruto, but Naruto defeated me with its endless stretch of unwatched episodes.
Manga: Again, Loveless. I read so many manga early this year though. Like anything I could get my hands on. If anyone has any recs for stupid retarded romance or BFF type manga I'll be happy to hear them. One week in a fit of procrastination I read the entire Hana Yori Dango manga even though I hated it. That's like, a million volumes. Special mention to Viewfinder and Nana.
TV show: I think Nobuta Wo Produce became my favourite television show of all time, narrowly conquering Buffy because it only had 10 episodes and never had a chance to let me down like Buffy did for long stretches after the third season. Heroes is fucking awesome. Doctor Who joined Oz in the MOST TRAUMATIC SCENE OF ALL TIME stakes. I seriously can't remember what I watched this year; I think it's partly because I stopped watching a lot of things when I got busy with uni and never went back to them. I feel completely betrayed by Veronica Mars. Why does it suck now.
Band: KAT-TUN, lol. Architecture in Helsinki, Blueline Medic, Eskimo Joe. I actually liked the new Something for Kate cd which is amazing because they haven't released a cd I really liked since Elsewhere for 8 Minutes. Rie Fu, Rilo Kiley.
Song: SEISHUN AMIGO.
Celeb: Kame. I'd list other people but they're all connected to Kame somehow so I'll just leave it at that.
Crush: Been staring at this one for a while trying to think of an answer. I don't really get crushes on people, even in RL. Once Anna made this weird joke about me having "more than a tv crush" on someone from PoT, I don't remember who. Ryoma or Tezuka, probably. It was the weirdest joke ever. Sam and I quizzed her about it for like an hour because it made no sense. So maybe Ryoma. Or maybe Aja because I wrote her so much love poetry.
Movie: Little Miss Sunshine. Good Night and Good Luck. I saw a lot of really amazing movies this year but I can't think of them as my favourites because they made me so miserable; like Nobody Knows and Road to Guantanamo.
Jdrama: I watched SO MANY. Jdramas are more or less the only kind of tv I really watched this year because I didn't have the time for long things. Well that was my rationale. Also they give me everything I need. Nobuta, obviously. One Litre of Tears. Gokusen 2. One Litre of Tears and Gokusen 2 fulfil completely different needs. I think I'll rewatch them both soon. WHY ARE THE REST OF THE EPS OF AKIHABARA@DEEP NOT SUBBED. THIS IS SO TRAUMATIC.
Kdrama: Goong. I'm seriously mad about the second season. CHAEGYUNG/LEE SHIN OTP.
Person to harass: The only person I ever really harrass is![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
scrabble and I haven't had a good opportunity in a long time... like '05. ilu rach.
Things that make me glad: This is really hard. It's been a really crappy year. My kittens and jpop make me happy. Getting to know Aja better. My retarded non-biological sibling TWP - every year that we make it through without killing each other is cause for celebration. I can imagine myself murdering you with a blunt object and then sobbing over your cold body because I was bored and missed you, and there'd be no-one to feed me kpop performances while I cried. In the end I can always count on you and I hope you'll count on me. ALSO GLAD THAT I HAVEN'T TURNED INTO WEIRD NORMAL POD PERSON LIKE SOME PEOPLE I MIGHT MENTION... Careful, they could be coming for any one of us next.
And now that first-line-of-every-month thing.
January: Fic draft. About 750 words.
February: Atobe Keigo transfers to Seigaku senior in their second year of high school. He says that the quality of education has declined at Hyotei in recent years, that Hyotei’s senior campus smells oddly like dogs and is infested with rats. Everybody knows he is lying.
March: Uploaded forthewhiteprophet, but the piracy shouldn't stop there.
April: Title: Icebergs 1/1
May: ATTN:thewhiteprophet: An Early Birthday Present
June: FIC: "Be Like Buchou" 1/1
July: Tezuka tries to read on the plane. At the airport, Fuji had pressed a fat English book into his hands. It is full of people who don’t get on very well, angry husbands and wives who drink a lot and have affairs with strangers. Tezuka can’t imagine Fuji reading it as strongly as he can imagine Fuji being amused by the thought of Tezuka reading it. Tezuka gives up after the fifty-seventh page, when the angry housewife is about to get raped by her dashing young gardener. He slips it into the seat pocket and tries to sleep, but all he can think about is his mother waving him off at the airport, her composed face and greying hair. He won’t see her for a few months, at least. He wonders if she will seem older then.
August: We drove into the mountains today (middle of nowhere) to visit this cattery. It was basically torture considering that I can't get a cat until after I get back from Japan, if I go.
September: I wanted to put this here so that in three months when I start being sane again I can remember how horrible September was.
October: I have literally never felt less patriotic than I do at this moment.
November: I'm supposed to be writing this essay that is due tomorrow. It has to be 4000 words. I have written 1200 and not researched enough. And can't pay attention.
December: This morning I watched a couple episodes of akihabara@deep. I enjoyed it in that retarded way I enjoyed Gokusen 1, only this is less sappy.
PoT, Cats, Homework and Jpop. It's a pretty good summary of my year.
I saw Eragon with Anna and Sam the other day. We were supposed to see Charlotte's Web until we realised one by one, starting with me, that we hadn't really wanted to see it in the first place. Poor Sam still wants to see it... at some point I might be able to get over my meh face and go.
A guy I went to high school with was collecting money for the Salvation Army at Melbourne Central today. At some point he'd been playing Tuba but had given up, leaving his friend to play trumpet alone while he stood in front of Mrs. Fields rattling his money tin. I put some money in the tin near his friend and tried to wave but it looked like he was asleep standing up and didn't see me wave. I'm not joking, either, I really think he was asleep. He's this sweet, awkward, nerdy guy but last time I saw him he swore at me because I go (went) to Melbourne and he goes to Monash and there's a long history of Monash students hating Melbourne students for thinking they're better than everybody, or something. He was joking, I think. I hope. That was like three years ago. HE GOT SO TALL. He used to be shorter than me, now he's easily six foot something. He was noticably taller than me, so I guess like 6'2". So weird.
keymash gave me paid time so now I have to gather the photoshop tools I don't have on this comp and make a lot of icons *_* A PROJECT *_* I'M EXCITED *_*. I've had six icons for what feels like forever. It's horrible. You get attached to your icons and don't want to get rid of them but at the same time you long for something new and different and exciting. It's like being married, AND NOW I'M SEPARATED SO I GET TO BE MARRIED AND DATE NEW PEOPLE AT THE SAME TIME. Exciting.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY.
