I just wanted to ask you if you like to add me - but then I realised who you are. Oh my... *blushes*
The userpics won't load for me at the moment, maybe that's way. Perhaps I'm just stupid. ;o)

(You said something about grammar and spelling, and what did I do... Hopeless case.)

Well, there's no trouble spotting userpics now - OMG, SHRAN! I forgot how much I loved Shran.

As for grammar and spelling.. well, mistakes happen. I'm not unforgiving, especially since I make the same mistakes myself. I suppose what I meant was that I like posts to retain some sense of order. Fangirl all you please, but it would be greatly appreciated if you would try to sound remotely intelligent when you write.

I like your posts. You give reasons. And pictures. Pictures are good.

:)

Another Shran icon for you. ;o)

Usually I check all my entries and comments several times to make sure I haven't sneaked in some silly typos, but I guess I'm so hot and overtired, I just don't spot them.
But I know what you mean with remotely intelligent, it's quite important to me, too.

I like your posts. You give reasons. And pictures. Pictures are good.
Thank you. :o)

I have like at least 4 icons I want to use in replying to your comment XD nimielle May 26 2009, 18:29:39 UTC
Hey there,

We have Firefly, North and South, Bones (at least from looking at your icons :D), Doctor Who, X-files and SG in common :) I also discussed "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" in my Sci-Fi Literature class and found it much better than the movie they made at the time, although Harrison Ford is smokin'!

British Period Drama is sooo awesome! I am completely in love with Jane Eyre and North and South ♥

I am afraid I don't have any cookies with me right now, but I always offer the newbies to my f-list some ;)

I am 25 by the way and currently in Taiwan studying Chinese.

Friends?

Yeah, Blade Runner... I liked the whole atmosphere of the movie and the mix of cultures and languages, but the novel is just MUCH more interesting! :)

Bones makes my heart dance in a good way. It's probably my favourite thing on TV right now, that's not been canceled already.

Asian studies must be so interesting! :) I think I might be able to take a Japanese course "for those who learn Chinese" back home later, I totally should too, considering I had a Japanese roommate every semester XD

*happy about new friend*

Hi! We seem to have some things in common.

Supernatural and Jossverse are two of my favorite fandoms, Ender's Game is one of my all time favorite books and I'm studying, well, not biology, but biotechnology. ;)
