A few things!

Firstly, I finally remembered the other amusing story I had intended to relate yesterday:

So, for like, ALL OF LAST YEAR, including the summer, I lived on the third floor, backside of the building. Well, back as in "the side not facing campus," because if you're ON that side it would seem to be the front and all, but for simplicity's sake, I'm calling it the backside of the building

Then a few weeks ago I moved to the SECOND floor on the [relative] frontside of the SAME building. [Not sharing space with so many people so it's smaller and I like it <3 Plus my roommate? Completely fabulous. Only awkward point is the ex-boyfriend across the hall who FLEES, apparently, when he seens me. =/]

So yesterday, walking in from class, etc, so on, so forth, dullness, listening to music and then....then I realize I'm five steps from the third floor on the [relative] backside of the building!

So, naturally, I face palm and waltz around the third floor and go down the steps next to my room. I know, it's not a thrilling story in the least, but I know some people will want to taunt me with it at least!

Other Notable Happenings:
1. Look at my previous entry. Look at the number of comments [currently 167]. I have -never in my life- had that many comments to a post in my LJ. Ever. My inbox? It died. I have it going through Thunderbird, checking like, every minute, I believe for that account and I was getting comment notifications in groups of between 4 and 6 every few minutes for a while. I loved it! *amused*
2. I do solemnly swear not to call Matt adorable.
3. Does anyone know where I can find jeans with like, striped [via seams] pant legs?
4. ...brain died. I swear there was more. Why does this always happen to me?! *headdesk*

*grins* Okay, so a lesser-celebrity so far. But they're getting geared up to make an anime out of it right now, from what I gather.

And there's a pretty big fanbase online from what I've seen. Good number of communities with like, fanfiction, fanart, news, etc.

hmmm. There was a post linking to some... here (http://community.livejournal.com/death_note/728195.html). I suppose you might be a better judge. *grins*

Hmm, they weren't bad. Do you draw?

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Not to save my life. I mean, my stick figures even look bad.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, well I can't draw people either. Really, the only time I ever pick up a pen is to doodle a rough sketch of whatever I plan to make, so I don't screw it up.

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Give me a ruler, pencil and a good sized eraser and I can manage something like that alright. People and landscapes and shit, that's just entirely too complicated for me. Too many little details. I mean, seriously props to anyone who CAN do that, and I will sit and stare in wonder, but for me? There is simply no way.

I like to think that I'm a pretty alright writer, and considering that I'm an English major in college, I hope I'm not deluding myself because otherwise term papers are going to kick my ass and laugh at me as I'm sitting on the ground.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
I don't write. I hated the papers I had to do, but I haven't had to do one in years now, so I don't mind too much anymore. :D

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
hahaa, lucky you then. I've got a few years left of them still. And probably a lifetime of attempting to publish them. Oh, what a facinating life I'll lead. Though I really do enjoy it. *shrugs* I'm a bit odd like that. Big sucker for poetry and such.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
Meh, I'm not the biggest poetry fan. I like sci-fi. :D

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Lol, I've read my fair share of that as well. Fantasy too.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
I've read some fantasy. *shrugs* I like dragons. :D

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
*smirks* ONe of my good friends used to call me "dragon lady" because I came in with a new book about dragons just about every three days. Which is a bit sad, honestly.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, well I haven't read that many books on them, but I have read a few. I play games more than I read anyway.

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
I've played a few games, but generally I'm utter crap at them. Good god, I'm useless, aren't I? *laughs*

I'm decent at puzzle games. And strangely, Guild Wars. Which I play highly infrequently these days.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't played Guild Wars in years, and puzzle games are okay one time through. After I solve them once, though, they're no good to pick up again. I prefer shooters. :D

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Years? It's not all that old of a game...

And you see, shooters are where I run into trouble. Me + Aiming = Not Good.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
It's 2010 for me; that game is practically ancient. Is it not that year for you? I seem to be talking to someone from the Fuedal Era of Japan...no idea how she got her hands on a computer.

And shooters taught me how to shoot. You hook yourself up to the VR setup and you're good to go. :D

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
The...what setup? *blinks* You've totally lost me.

2006. I guess as far as games go, it would be by then.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
VR--Virtual Reality. You get the goggles and the earphones and the right cordless gun and you're set. 8D

2006? Christ, that means you guys are on what, the PS3? Jeez, that came out ages ago.

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
*laughs* They're still working on that!

And well, at least we HAVE video games, I can't imagine they do in Feudal Japan.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, well that sucks for you! They're still really new for me, too, though--I actually got my hands on some technology that hasn't been officially released yet.

And no, they don't. She said she's never even played one before! D:

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, I'm good. Lord knows I don't need the distractions game provide. I have a hard enough time convincing myself to do my homework. gah.

And see? At least I have some concept of it. Even if I'm no good at it! *amused* The whole time period thing is...odd, to say the least.

[identity profile] popcornlasers.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
Games? A distraction? Nonsense! The rest of life is a distraction. :D

Yeah, but I'm starting to get used to it, I guess. Thought that means I'm from the FUTURE. 8D

[identity profile] themegaloo.livejournal.com 2006-08-31 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Explain that to my profs then!

Er, on second thought, don't. XD I don't think they'd take kindly to it and I want a good grade.

And yeah, I guess it does mean you're from the future. Relatively speaking. HAY LOOK. MORE COOL POINTS FOR MATT. *laughs*
