NaBloPoMo Unofficial 15: Avox
Started reading The Hunger Games again, like I said I would. I remembered that the thing was food porn, but not so much. (Those breakfasts. Seriously.) Well, thanks to fandom being awesome, I will now share some of the foods of The Hunger Games
The title's a reference to The Hunger Games, too. That thing I've been fighting off migrated to my ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo 14: Nod at the Bird, People Die.
The Hunger Games has a trailer.
I am conflicted. Firstly, there are the comments from the director that talk about some of the issues of Jennifer Lawrence's casting. Hell, I'll just quote the most WTF-inducing part:
In the books, Katniss is described as being olive-skinned, dark-haired, possibly biracial. Did you discuss with Suzanne the ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo Unofficial 13: Ugh
Spent the day doing somethings, but not totally in Responsible Adult Mode. Watched a bit more of That Pony Show, including "Over a Barrel". I am kind of :| that people did not figure out that this shit is not on.
In other fandoms, good gravy, I want to make this happenIn IRL news, my dad's given me a carpet for my bedroom, and I kind of want to ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo Unofficial 12: Faffing About
I did almost nothing today. It was fucking epic.
Though yeah, a small part of me is very guilty for wasting the day like I did. -
NaBloPoMo Unofficial 11: Confound These Fandoms...
You know the rest.
So, started watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, even though I'm aware of the fail. Don't know why, exactly.
I finished The Kingdom of Gods. I was kind of "meh" about the sequel hooks, but they're easy enough to ignore. I was rather pleased that a romance between two men was treated as No Big. I was kind of "meh" that ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo Unofficial 10: A Song of Ice and Foodporn
So, like a measurable chunk of the internets, I got into A Song of Ice and Fire thanks to HBO. Managed to READ ALL THE BOOKS, and enjoyed them, for the most part. Still side-eying that we don't get a non-Westrosi female who is not portrayed as a) subservient, b) superstitious, or c) evil ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo 9: To Battle
My body is in the middle of fighting off some dread illness. I tend to associate this with eating beef patties. The first time netted me food poisoning. This time, it's a headache and sore throat and fever. This is very upsetting, because I really like beef patties. It's also very upsetting because I'm not ill enough to merit calling off from work ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo Unofficial 8: Deceptions of an Innocent Sort
Firstly, fuck yeah my passport photo came in. The photographer was trying to make me laugh, so while the photo I got when I was 15 was all SRS BSNS, this is has me smiling much, much wider than I do under circumstances that do not involve someone tickling me ( Read more... ) -
NaBloPoMo 7: Book wormy wormy book worm book.
So, I mentioned before that I was reading In Other Worlds, which has led me to want to read The Handmaid's Tale again. So, I had to look around my bookshelves for the thing. I decided to grab it while I was getting ready for school, when I was without my glasses. So, it took me about five seconds to find the thing on my shelves in the semi-darkness ( Read more... )
