Very long ago, lightcastle asked me to write up a post detailing my stance against marriage.

Today is not that day, unfortunately (?). But I did just run across this BBC article that inadvertently raises some of the largest practical points. So I'll copy and paste some stuff over, and add in some commentary.

1) "There's supposed to be something ( Read more... )

So, in a thread on Omona re: 2AM's upcoming comeback/new release, someone posted the following video. For one, I enjoy the boys of 2AM, they are adorable. For two, I enjoy any and all excuses South Korea can come up with for idols to cross-dress (and trust me, there is no shortage of these situations). For three, I've had Bad Girl Good Girl stuck ( Read more... )

I find it amusing, a bit, that kpop has taught me more general-situation expressions than I typically use in English (non-swearing; I still respond to most situations by swearing in English, it's just how I cope). Chief among them being eotteohgeh (어떻게) ["what?", which I use in a "what do I doooooo?!" sense] and jookeullae (죽을래) [lit. "do you want ( Read more... )

Facebook is being fail, so here goes (don't let me down, LJ!):

What good books have you read recently? I wanna load up my new Kobo before going on vacation, and I could use some help...

TIA! xo

Somebody thought it a good idea to give me a document that allows me to pilot a motorized vehicle (under supervision, but still).

I wish there were a simple way to express just how badly this is probably going to turn out.

J (a good friend): When you get the chance you should check out my new tent!! It is the Marmot Halo 4. Totally bad ass!! Totally ( Read more... )

things kind of related to creativity:

1) working on t-shirt design contest entry: Joon-crush (see below... somewhere) died suitably quickly, mostly because gosh darn he's just too bloody young-acting (ChangMin crush lives ooooonnn~ naturally), but I actually do like the boys of that particular band, and the fandom peeps are sweet, and also this is ( Read more... )

Went for a fitness assessment today (getting personal trainer to create a program for me, since I can't seem to kick start my own way back into routine work-outs after my shoulder eff-up last fall). Slept 2.5 hours last night (scariest exam was at 09h00 today), ate two (delicious, home-made) salad rolls 30min prior to my appointment -- less than ( Read more... )

I want a Night Fury.

Seriously, seriously, sadly not joking even a little bit, I want a Night Fury.

Goddamn but Toothless was adorable. I would love him for-ev-er.

From the wiki:

"When watching the film with the rest of the crew, we realized that 'dog people' think that Toothless is just like their dog and 'cat people' think he's definitely a ( Read more... )
