These days I keep having these thoughts. Lots of thoughts that lead to the same conclusion: fandom is crazy, therefore fandom is cruel . I happily brows through DeviantArt pretty often and I'm enrapted by the awesom ness of lots and lots of fanarts. So you can easily figure out how they lured me, winking at me and poking me to make me take a look at those manga which I haven't read yet. My mind was...

KAT-TUN CONCERT. Arrived at Tokyo Dome at like 12:30pm, had sushi for lunch, wandered around, queued up for con goods. I started queuing at around 2:20pm, I think, and it was real quick, like 15 minutes only, but GOD IT WAS SO HOT. The girls behind me in the queue kept going "ATSUI! SHINU! SHINU!" Aksjg;sjdkf it was boiling. Anyway, got myself a Kame uchiwa, the penlight, and the con pamphlet...

I recently read Havemercy by Jaida Jones ( ladyjaida , co-authoress of the amazing shoebox_project ) and Danielle Bennett ( danibennett ), and it is amazing. Really. If you're a shoeboxer, I think that this is basically required of you. So in honor of it, I've made some icons and a wallpaper using art by zanai . [ warning: one major spoiler within.] ICONS...

So I'm reading ladyjaida 's book  Havemercy , which is a joint project between her and Danielle Bennett (whose LJ I don't know ^^;;). And since I know Jaida from her work with  dorkorific  on  shoebox_project , it makes sense that it reads like a terrifically eloquent and erudite slash fic

First day of uni today. I, um, kinda freaked out a little. Only in my head, but yeah. That's not cool. I mean, I'll just try to ignore it, but I was surprised about freaking out over ONE LECTURE. In effect, I freaked out about freaking out. The problem with Creative Writing, as with any unit that involves something I think I'm okay at and do for lubbs, is that I'm scared to put in any effort. If I...

The Joker didn't actually feel that changed, but sometime around midnight the night before, he felt it. He giggled now as he gathered his gifts together, alternatively sighing soppily and shaking his head as though he couldn't believe his good luck. All these people he loved and so little time in which to express it. He hummed a little tune as he fiddled with the flower in his lapel. For Boromir...

  M y day was incredibly mundane up to the point where I found out my two hour Transport and Traffic Engineering tutorial was infact online (not sure how that works). This meant that I left university two hours early and got to eat Korean for lunch at Goshen with Reyan. Good food with good company. Two memes stolen from eudaimon . 1. What was the last thing you bought online? A vintage snake...

"I like to remember everything," Remus says, very quietly, so as not to wake Sirius. "As it was. Because moments by themselves aren't enough; they're just -- they're like photographs. They move a little, they wave, but they aren't everything. You can look back on a moment and say 'In that moment I was happy' or, more often than not, 'In that moment I was uncomfortable' or 'In that moment I was sad'...

Shoe Box Project is very very very very very lovely. I love it. A lot. So go read it! http://community.livejournal.com/shoebox_project/258.html#cutid1 I made serveral icons for it. Sadly these are frightfully enormous, so I don't know if you will be able to use them on lj, seeing as the limit is 40 kb lolz. All of these make you feel seasick, but whatever. I like the moving ones! Lupin and...
