Quizzy-type thing.
You See The World Through Red Colored Glasses
|

You live your life with intensity. You have strong emotions and experience everything vividly.
You judge all interactions through the lens of power. You determine who has the most power and how to improve your position.
You face challenges with courage and strength. You can will your way through any problem.
You see love as the utmost expression of your passions and desires. Your romantic life is very passionate and overwhelming.
At your worst, you are easily angered and quick to fight. You will go to war with anyone.
You are happiest when you are expending a lot of energy. And you love the feeling of danger!

Updates! Updates! Get your Updates here!
I have done a massive update for the Multi-Fandom Post-Apocalypse Survival Slash Fiction Thematic List. New stories have been listed and the whole thing has been moved!
It was getting so unwieldy and difficult to update quickly that I relocated it here, to a public Google Notebook.
This move has benefits for both you, the user, and me, the maintainer. Thanks to the Notebook system, you will now be able to navigate directly to a specific fandom on the list, and you will also be able to subscribe to the list using a RSS Reader. The simple, clear formatting of Notebook should make the list easier for you to read, as well. And because it is also much easier for me to update quickly and neatly, updates will be more frequent.
Please let me know if you have trouble accessing the new list for any reason. This list gets a reasonable amount of traffic, and if Notebook can't support that, I will need to make a backup or find another solution. If this works well, I may decide to move all of my Thematic Lists to Google Notebook, so let me know what you think. There are links for commenting and email posted at the top of the list. Enjoy.

pretty quiz
Your result for The Perception Personality Image Test... NBPC - The DaydreamerNature, Background, Big Picture, and Color 
You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on the hidden treasures of life (the background) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the colors around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to ponder ideas and imagine the many possibilities of your life without worrying about the details or specifics. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You are a down-to-earth person who enjoys going with the flow.

Back from Bali etc
Yes... I'm back! What a nice holiday indeed. But... am I weak or juts fragile-constitution? Caught a flu. All because the Balinese plus the tourists love to smoke. *sniffs* Sensitive nose or weak lungs? *sigh* now to recuperate from this cough/sneezing bout of holiday sickness. When I'm better I will definitely be going over f-lists for updates... on rl and on fanfics. Yeah! Till then, here's to a speedy recovery for me.

*points at icon*
They look really cute and innocent and shit.
And then they multiply. And take steroids. And overrun the garden, your house, the local 7-Eleven, and all hope of making it out in one piece.
Augh.
You don't even want to know about the Florida one. And I'm totally going to have to write it, too. And then there's the one with the wizarding phonograph. And that's before we even get into MacTavish and the Mermaid, or the one in which Hermione saves Snape, or the crossover, or...

More Substantial Update
So as I said yesterday, I'm back home now. I've had to take the last twenty-four to recover. It's amazing how a trip-- VACATION-- can take so much out of me. Well, I suppose that's what conventions and family can do to you.
Was really great to see my family, if exhausting. I adore my family. We are great in number... I think the immediate family is nearing 35. My grandparents, my mum and her five siblings, five significant others between them (one of my aunts is a widow), sixteen children between them and the husband and two (soon to be three) children of one of my cousins. So... Yeah. Massive numbers of people. Even when not everyone is around, it's still a big gathering. And people like to come over lots when us Canadians make it down.
I could go through all of the details of the trip, but really, it's all family stuff. But there is one thing that I think my flist will find amusing:
I was making myself something to eat and had my computer open and playing my iTunes playlist, since I was the only one in the kitchen. "Vanilla" by Gackt was playing. My cousin (who is four, I believe) came in. She started dancing around crazily and saying how much she loved the song. Now, knowing the translation of Vanilla, I was DYING of held in laughter. It was both kind of awesome and yet so very wrong she liked the song so much. But you know, it's got a good rhythm and she doesn't understand Japanese. So no harm, no foul.
Made plans today for some excursions to Toronto. Avenue Q is playing downtown, but only till the end of August. I REALLY want to go and my dad and brother thought it sounded pretty cool. We managed to make arrangements and we're going on Thursday (Yeah.... This Thursday). Short notice, but it's not playing for much longer and I really want to see.
Also got a notice from one of my friends that Dir En Grey is playing at Kool Haus in November. Now, Dir En Grey is not my favourite Japanese band, but I think they're all right. All right enough that I wouldn't mind going to Kool Haus with some friends to go see 'em (especially since Kool Haus isn't a terribly expensive venue). So Rob and I are going. Hurray for getting out of my house!
Been knitting lately. While I was at my grandparents' house, I needed things to occupy my time during the evenings that didn't involve me locking myself away in my room (as internet use, writing or drawing would have) and I had a bunch of knitting supplies from my workshops. I've managed to teach myself ribbing (hurray! New techniques!). Now that I'm back home, I'm working on the Doctor scarf again. It's been cool today and it's nice and brainless, so it's a good way to recover from traveling while still doing something. But now that I'm back and I CAN lock myself away to work, I'm going to start on that big long list of to-do Writing/Art projects I came up with at Terminus. And the next ep of The Nyazian Prophecies. And, of course, my RL work.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, annephoenix!!! *hugs very hard*
This monster has been in the works for you since, well, a while after Sectus, both 'cause I love you (of course!) and as thanks for introducing me to a YA series that abuses its hero even worse than JKR ;). Hope you like, even though I'm aware how busy you are at the moment – no need to read any time soon :). *hugs again*

lol!
Your result for The Brutally Honest Personality Test... Loser- INTP27% Extraversion, 67% Intuition, 80% Thinking, 47% Judging 
Talked to another human being lately? I'm serious. You value knowledge above ALL else. You love new ideas, and become very excited over abstractions and theories. The fact that nobody else cares still hasn't become apparent to you...
Nerd's a great word to describe you, and I seriously couldn't care less about the different definitions of the word and why you're actually more of a geek than a nerd. Don't pretend you weren't thinking that. You want every single miniscule fact and theory to be presented correctly.
Critical? Sarcastic? Cynical? Pessimistic? Just a few words to describe you when you're at your very best...*cough* Sorry, I mean worst. Picking up the dudes or dudettes isn't something you find easy, but don't worry too much about it. You can blame it on your personality type now.
On top of all this, you're shy. Nice one, wench. No wonder you're on OKCupid! Now, quickly go and delete everything about "theoretical questions" from your profile page. As long as nobody tries to start a conversation with you, just MAYBE you'll now have a chance of picking up a date. But don't get your hopes up.
I am interested though. If a tree fell over in a forest, would it really make a sound?

Fic: TotA college AU, "Extracurricular Activities"
*snicker* So, mailechan and mahokiwi, I guess this one's for you. ^_^
Fandom: Tales of the Abyss (college AU) Title: Extracurricular Activities Rating: PG-13 Words: 625 Summary/Notes: I happened to imagine Guy on the college swim team. This is kind of what came from that. I rather picture him in one of those full-body suits like they're showing in the Olympics these days, especially since the game was kind enough to show him in something kind of similar....
