'love, love will tear us apart again'

[mooging]

Humour me, flist. It is either keep myself busy on the internets, or go and throw up forever. Nausea is not the boss of me, I say! I say, down with fail and up with FREAKING POINTLESS MEMES! FUN FOR EVERYONE! also I am going to get those 5 Things comments done very very soon, I promise.

On another note, I'm thinking about making this journal semi-friends only. I mean, I lock most of the stuff I don't feel comfortable sharing with the world at large, but I'm thinking of maybe extending that to just everything that isn't either an entirely fandom-related post, or fic. Flist, what are your thoughts? Are you friends-only? What do you think of friends-only journals in general? Has semi-friends only worked for you?

Feel free to join in with one, or both, I really don't mind! I'm off on a new icon gathering haul around LJ, la la la, I must make the most of these two short months with all the userpic spaces, fun fun fun.

1) Comment and I will:

1) Tell you why I friended you.
2) Associate you with a song/film.
3) Tell a random fact about you.
4) Tell a first memory about you.
5) Associate you with a character/pairing.
6) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7) Show you my favourite user pic of yours.
8) In retort, you must spead this disease in your LJ. (except, you don't have to do this at all, whatever meme rules, I openly defy you).

2) Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.

(Also, I really don't mind if you pick more than one character, but no more than three please, because there are LIMITS TO MY BRAIN.)

BASICALLY I JUST WANT TO BUM AROUND THE INTERNET FOR A BIT; WHO'S WITH ME?

1) Tell you why I friended you. I think I found you through some BSG-related thing, and, er, fell a bit in love with the way you worded your entries, and what you were working for (you were doing your A-Levels at the time, oh my god, I have just realised that I am now doing what you were doing when we first started talking, what the hell, that is a bit terrifying) - yayyy, St. Andrew's - and then I lurked around lurkishly on your journal being too scared to say actual words at you because of your awesomeness. AND THEN I THOUGHT, HEY, IF I FRIEND HER, I CAN SEE MORE OF HER ENTRIES! and so I did, and it was good :DDD
2) Associate you with a song/film. Calendar Girls, because we watched it that time when you were staying with meeee, and we ate Chinese foods - both having the same thing, because we are apparently twins in the brain - and now I can't see it without thinking of youuu.
3) Tell a random fact about you. You have met Harriet Walter and have photographic evidence to prove it!
4) Tell a first memory about you. Reading your journal entries and seeing that you not only liked Laura Roslin but also LENA OLIN, what what what. (Actually, was it BSG that led me to you? I don't know. If it was, it was reeeeeally at the beginning of my BSG-madness, because I remember being like, what is going on with this Roslin woman.)
5) Associate you with a character/pairing. BILL ADAMA/IMPOTENCY.
6) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you. Er er er, let me think. Is there anything you've always really wanted to do, outside academia, but have held back from in favour of the more scholarly things?
7) Show you my favourite user pic of yours. Either , because the colouring is freaking gorgeous beyond belief, or , because it really caught my eye, and your keywords made me smiiiiiile!

Speaking of BSG, it had better buck its ideas up for the finale - I've seen up to Islanded in a Stream of Stars, so no spoilers beyond that, plz - because WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY DOING WITH LAURA? DID SHE REFER TO HERSELF AS ADAMA'S WOMAN? YES, YES, SHE DID. ANGERRRRRR. ffs, if this is the road they're going down, why didn't they just kill her when they got to Earth and spare me all this shitty, her-only-motivation-now-is-Adama crap. RAAAAAGE.

*is currently doing a little lazing on the internet because her essay's motherfucking introduction is refusing to be written*

Awww, ILU. And I still cannot believe you lurked because you thought I was too awesome to approach. That is VERY SWEET and VERY MAD.
I shall make it all even more terrifying by saying that we met while I was doing my A-Levels and now you are doing A-Levels and I am very nearly in my final year of university (note to self: fuuuuuuck).
I cannot remember how we actually met and because of what. I don't think it was BSG, though very early on in our friendship, you got into BSG.
We watched Calendar Girls when I visited the first time? I HAVE A MEMORY LIKE A SIEVE.
Ohgod, Harriet, Harriet. I LOVE HER, AND SHE HAS PUT HER ARM AROUND ME. *flails*
Your answer to #5 is awesome.
For many many years, I wanted to be a fashion or costume designer and I had the plan of going to fashion college in London. But then I decided I wasn't truly good enough and that I should really get a Proper Degree (which I do not regret, not really).

BSG is utter shite right now. I have very nearly lost allll interest in it. This makes me sad, but it is true. They are completely ruining Laura and this kills me. :(
