I’ve never really liked the idea of needing others to have fun. Because you can get attached to people and people always leave. And yes it’s true that they come back sometimes. But if you just rely on yourself to have fun, you’ll never disappoint yourself. You can save yourself a lot of heartache. Mostly. It’s like that phrase: “if you learn to befriend yourself, you’ll never be lonely.”

But some people do say that it is better to have loved and lost than to never loved at all. So, maybe, sometimes it is better to get close to someone. Maybe you’ll get the briefest moments of happiness, but perhaps those moments themselves will be the most intense, most pivotal moments of your life. You don’t know. And you could find out if you try. And that’s what living is about, isn’t it?

It's what I tell myself anyway.

Soooooo.

Strangely, as I sit here and look at a (now) mostly blank screen, I don't quite know what to type. I mean, I could say all the things that have happened to me in the past few weeks, but I've been thinking - I don't actually give an iota about it. And if I don't give an iota, why would anyone that's on my page care to know either?

But. I think I'll just post one of the many drabbles I have been able to write in my spare time that I'm actually satisfied with. Though, not overly satisfied, mind you. And I'll leave it at that. I don't care whether anyone comments or not. (Wow, am I in an apathetic mood today or what?)

(Just something I came up with today while I was actually in the mood for writing in the afternoon. Wanted to make it longer, but the muse decided to go away. Meh. I'll take what I can get.)

She was going to stop him. She was going to tell him they were over, that he was the biggest mistake she had ever made in her life so far. Then she was going to walk – strut – out of his life for good, without so much as a backward glimpse. And then they'd never see each other again if she could help it.

 

But then he just had to kiss her soundly undone when he saw her. She really hated polarity right about now. It made her fail hard, way hard. So much for fucking being Hermione Granger, you know?

I've finally finished watching the first two seasons of 'Skins'. And...I think Cassie rocks in her unique self-destructive ways. Totally my favourite female of the series.

(And, in a completely random fashion, I'm gonna use breaks instead of bullet/number points this time. Am trying to work out what I like more lol.)

It's supposedly the coldest week in Sydney we've had in four years. Heh, I wish there were all the right elements for it to snow though. What I'd give to see snow outside my window, like I did in Italy...anyway, so much for global warming, huh?

It's a most interesting (and somewhat annoying) story of telling people what heritage I'm of. My father got a haircut today, and I went there when they were halfway finished, sitting down for about five minutes without being approached. So I thought that they must've known who I was, that I was his daughter. And then one of the staff, after she had finished with a client, approached me and asked if I was in need of assistance. This is how our conversation went, roughly.

Lady: Can I help you?

Me: No, I'm just waiting for my dad [motions towards].

Lady: [looks surprised] Oh! You're his daughter? You don't really look much alike! You have quite curly hair...and your father seems to have the opposite.

Me: [makes nervous laugh] Yeah, I wish I had inherited his straight hair. Curly hair's hard to manage. [starts feeling self-conscious of the frizzy curly fringe that she didn't bother to pin back]

Lady: You look...exotic, though. Like, you're from the Philippines, or Hawaii, or something. [speaks to my dad] What's your wife?

Father: She's the almost the same as me.

Lady: And does she have curly hair?

Father: A little, but not really. My daughter's got the most curliest of everyone in our family.

Lady: Interesting. So what's your heritage, then?

I'll leave the conversation right here. I like the ambiguity and anonymity that the internet has to offer...for now. ;)

I got my camera back. I mean, I got my camera back. Every 18yo, or there abouts, should know what I'm talking about. So anyway, excuse me while I do a dance of rejoice (that is somewhat akin to the one in 'Love Actually').

*does her dance*

*and is back to the keyboard now*

It didn't break or anything, I just haven't managed to weasel it off my parents since I went into hospital. And I was sort of banned from using it after I was discharged because they wanted to use it, even though they had their own camera *rolls eyes*. Well, admittedly, mine is better, but that still isn't the point, really. The point is that mine's more...newer, shall we say, and thus more technological - so really, they should be using some simple thing, you know? And I didn't want to use their one because theirs...just isn't for me, it's too simple. As a tech-savvy person, I think I can say that I like technological complexity, tyvm. And who knows, there might even be a picspam soon, if I'm feeling up to such bravado. I'm a little self-conscious of my Hermione-hair, you see...

After seeing clips of 'Les Choristes' and 'Les Enfoires', I'm totally in love with Jean-Baptiste Maunier at the moment. So many sexy French men these days! Well, slight exaggeration - only two that I know of, to be honest lol.

My creativity dam levels have hit an all-time low. I'm sucked dry of any inspiration! My plot fishies are, like, *dead*.

I don't like having half-grown dead fishies. At least, if they're gonna die, I wish they'd develop a bit more before doing so. Or maybe its my own fault for not writing more when I'm in the mood.

Eh. I almost hate this as much as I hate being confused about where to live.

On another topic, has anyone ever done the whole "I'm not looking to date right now...like, SERIOUSLY!" and then BAM?! A whole barrage of attractive looking guys just suddenly come your way? That is damn conflicting. But I'm still holding up with that "not dating" resolve lol.

(Edit: I don't know why, but my answer has to be highlighted...well, that or make me rewrite my answer which I can't be stuffed to do.)

So yesterday was a disaster by my standards. I posted something, then I deleted it, and then I started writing something else up, and then I decided to delete that too. And repeat that sentence one more time, and that would be my Saturday afternoon.

I'm not sure what to write exactly, so I'll just do the meme that I got tagged for.

Is there something in fic that really, really bothers you when you read it? The sort of thing that can turn you off reading, even if the rest of the fic is brilliant? Label it here...then tag five others to do the same!

I'd probably say that my biggest pet peeve is crazy OOCness, without (and sometimes with) the aid of potions or spells. We fall in love with the characters as we know them, so with the authors who are writing seriously (and not comically), I don't think they should make their characters do a complete 180 in the middle of nowhere without a bloody good reason. (Just as a little sidenote, I quite like redscharlach's humourous drabbles.) Though, I think you could excuse drabbles from this as you can't write enough backstory in their limited word count...but feel obliged to disagree with me here if you like!

Not going to tag other people because I think everyone's had a go by now. I'm getting so slow on LJ!

So it's taken me a while to read the latest additions, but I finally feel complete and fulfilled now that I have. Or near-to complete and fulfilled with the near-to finished 'The Dragon's Bride' by Rizzle.

Excuse me while I sigh with happiness.

Ha, not exactly sure if the subject title made much sense, but whatever. 

I've started writing a one-shot that's turning out to be longer than the common drabble! So far it's over a thousand words, half-way finished, I think. 

I feel somewhat proud. I just hope I don't lose inspiration! Or time, either, because I seem to be busy these days for a person that isn't supposed to be busy at all lol.

And I'm house-hunting! Just a little FYI ;)

Bah. 

So after all these months of "Join Facebook, bitch, join it!" and "Why haven't you joined Facebook already? Is there something wrong with you?" I finally gave in. 

So...can you hear that sound? No? Listen closer. 

It's the sound of me DYING.

Fucking EVERYONE is on Facebook. My whole bloody grade is there, and some teachers too. Like: WHAT. THE. FUCK?

I feel like deleting it. Or friending everyone. I can't decide - it's one extreme over the other!

...Me thinks I'll just let a friend go into my account to do the friending for me. HA.

In other news, I went clubbing for the first time on Friday. T'was fun, besides the fact that I don't like perverty old guys. As a fresh, young, little lamb, I just have to say: WHERE THE HELL ARE THE GUYS MY AGE? (Oh, that's right, they like chasing older women at this stage. Never mind.)

An update on my life:

"But I just don't understand - why are you leaving?"

"Becauseyou'reafuckingstupidbitchandIhateyouduh."

That's what I said, all in one miniscule breath. Seriously. In my head, of course.

Man, I wish I had the damned guts to say what's on my mind sometimes, even when it's not such a wise decision to do so. It'd make me seem cool - 'cause let's face it, I'm nothin' spesh.

But WHAT THE HELL, MAN. WHAT THE FUCKING HELL? What fucking right did she have to ask me that and EXPECT AN ANSWER? Crazy bat bitch, I'm telling ya. She's royally fucked, and don't forget you heard it here first.

Eh. I need to stop swearing...

So I spent, like, 5 hours (no fucking joke) trying to fix the Internet connection on my laptop. And man am I pissed after configuring all these IP addresses, subnet masks, default gateways and DNS servers - only to figure out that something or someone put the bloody firewall back-fucking-on the LAN.

Obviously, I am not v. impressed...but am quite relieved to see Google back on my screen, lol.

List ten fictional characters you would have sex with (in no particular order) and tag five people to do the same.

1. Julian Sark
2. Sydney Bristow
3. Draco Malfoy (how could I not!)
4. Manech...well, played by Gaspard Ulliel, that is
5. Mike Lowrey
6. McSteamy
7. McDreamy
8. Nate Archibald
9. Mr Darcy - both BJD and P&P, played by Colin Firth...that's not selfish, is it? ;)
10. Addison Montgomery

Concerning number two and ten...I would so go gay for their actor counterparts!
