Part I of THE STUFF.
Hey everyone,
Thank you so much for your kind comments last time!
I wanted to update much sooner but LJ deleted the main page CSS I used to use (remember back in... 2006 or 07 when you could decide whether to stick with the old main page design to change to the new one? Well, apparently I was the only one who didn't change) so now I can't use any parts of the site that do not have customised CSS.
I posted a support request a week ago, but so far no one has helped me, which is why I am posting using Semagic now.
After all the recent drama I decided to make a very normal post with very normal stuff about The Honey that you guys either know, don't know or are not interested in, because I can.
This is part I, part II will have pictures (because I'm tired now.)
1. I have a very short list of favourite albums, because I only count those that I never tired of even over several years and listen to regularly.
The list is thus:
1. Metallica - The Black Album (20 years)
2. No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom (18 years)
3. Björk - Debut (11 years)
4. Alicia Keys - The Diary of Alicia Keys and Nickelback - Sunny Side Up (9 years)
5. The Divine Comedy - Our Mutual Friends and Outkast - The Love Below/Speakerboxx (8 years)
6. The Beatles - Revolver and The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (7 years)
7. Kanye West - Graduation and Queens of the Stone Age - Era Vulgaris (5 years)
2. I know for a fact that the world would be a better place if people would tell each other freely that they love and appreciate each other, but whenever someone says nice things, does nice things for me or is just generally awesome, I feel so undeserving and my heart swells up, just like in bad fanfic, so I alternate between clamming up and behaving like an arse or crying. I cry like, every week after royalexperience says "speak to you next week!"
3. All my really good friends have the same eating habits as me and the same appreciation for fucktons of food. Maybe love really goes through the stomach.
4. The answer to the world's problems will eventually be cheese. I know it, and so should you.
5. The only thing facebook is good for is that the profile pictures I upload of myself suggest I look hotter with each year. Vava-Voom.
6. This might be cynical, but why does 99% of music have to be about love? No one can be THAT preoccupied with it.
7. One year down the line, I still miss my dog every day. In the future, I want a career and a dog, which is difficult, and I am going to search high and low for exactly the same cross breed. No one feels worse for leaving the country and not being there when he died than me.
8. I decided on the name of my future son at 13. I haven't changed my mind about the name, only about the possibility of children ever happening...
9. If you do the right thing, the thing my mum did and only give children cola on special occassions, they will end up like me and become addicted to the stuff by college.
10. E like energetic: Why the fuck do people keep calling me energetic? I sleep on any available surface at any given time! I don't put up with bull because I am too tired! I fall asleep after every meal! My blood pressure is nonexistant! Same thing happens when I confess to being shy. I am shy around people I give a fuck about, ok.
11. Fictional character love: The characters that I identify with, almost physically ache for, NEED YOU TO LOVE are Bridget Jones, Tom Ripley, Tony Stark, Elizabeth Bennet, Harvey Specter and Arthur and Eames.
12. My tattoo really completed me as a person. Right now, washing my tat and putting salve on it is a ritual that makes me very aware of this new part of me, and I am still in awe and completely unable to be cool about it.
The only thing that's starting to annoy meis people asking if it is real and trying to rub it off. It's an open wound mofo, hands off.
13. My favourite colours are teal, purple and coral.
14. A lot of the music I really like I discovered through fanvids.
15. No one laughs at "Would I lie to you?" as hard as I do, honestly.
16. I am starting to think that most girld don't think of themselves as really girly or think they can't admit it because being less girly makes them more natural. Nevertheless, I have settled on just being me. I don't understand guys. I don't understand girls either. yOu're all weird, you hear me? xD
17. Just once in my life, just to show myself that I can do it, I want to participate in a big singing or writing contest and win it, because people believe in me and I am arrogant enough to not just wave that off.
18. People who are liked by everyone, deservedly, who are nice and kind and smart and good-looking, modest and so on and so on, they scare me. I am always waiting for their deep dark secret to emerge.
