*wibble* Why does it have to be that paedo? :( That said, Paul McCartney is still awesome. (by the way, January 7, 1984)
A: Aardvark/Arthur
x_nothing_hereUm I know nothing about Aardvarks, and very little about Arthur. He, like all cartoon characters, need to change their clothes.
B: Barney Stinson
lissomelleHe was awesome. He kinda lost that awesomeness when they reverted him back to manwhore. I'd have loved to see him grow from his relationship with Robin, but I feel like he hasn't. Of course I haven't seen the past few episodes, but I haven't felt the need to.
C: Castle
lissomelleI can't get over how this show made it into my heart. I love the characters so, so much, they (and the writing) makes up for the uneven strength of the cases.
D: Doctor Who
londongirl27It's funny, but I don't really remember much of my fannish life prior to Doctor Who, despite only starting to watch it 3 years ago. I adore the crack, and how somehow I've fallen for the characters, which I never thought was possible from a sci-fi show. The thing is as much as it introduced me to in fandoms (loveable, identifiable science fiction characters, science fiction that doesn't take itself seriously, other shows in the genre...) it introduced me to something far greater- many amazing people. And for that? I will always be thankful to the show and to the person who convinced me to give it a go.
E: Eeyore
x_nothing_hereMy family kept calling me Eeyore. It sucked. I'm happier though, so it's not so often, but I still identify with him more than any other being from the gang. He's also the one I really would hug. A lot.
F: Farms
x_nothing_hereFactory farms = evil soulless murderers.
Family farms = better, but dying out. :(
Janet is sad. Janet would like a hobby farm?
G: Gilmore Girls
londongirl27My first online fandom! One of only two I've written fic for, bad fic, but fic nonetheless. I remember getting into it over Luke and Nicole vs. Lorelai and Chris. I don't remember my stance, but whatever. I actually found spoilers on a site, and found a link to fanforum, which led me to LJ... good times. :D And two of my best internet buddies were found on FF, so yay. As for the show itself? I loved it, even the sub-par season 4, but season 7 hadn't grabbed me and I still haven't rewatched that season.
H: hobbies
x_nothing_hereIt's good to have them? I do draw, and I journal (the best way to get a good night's sleep- get your worries out). I'd like to do something more physical, though.
I: Ice Hotel in Montreal or Igloos
Montreal doesn't have an Ice Hotel, Quebec city has one. Really, why would anyone choose to stay in a building made of ice and sleep on fur of all things? Absolutely disgusting and unnecessary for city-dwellers.
J: Jungle
x_nothing_hereThe pictures are pretty, I wouldn't wanna travel in one for an extended period of time. I'm such a city girl, lol.
K: Kate Beckett
x_nothing_hereAww, I love Kate. She cleans up well, but always has that HBIC part of her near the surface. Like when she hauled out her badge and she told Castle not to ask where she hid it, or when she grabbed the gun out of her purse and handed the purse to Castle? So awesome. Also, I think Stana Katic is just amazing with her non-verbal acting.
L: Lost in Translation
londongirl27It's such a pretty movie, and I get more every time I watch it, but it (and its soundtrack) always awakens in me an urge to hop a plane and get lost in Tokyo.
M: The Mentalist
londongirl27Honestly? I don't watch it for the crimes (actually that's the case for every mystery) but the characters kill me so much. From the charming exterior hiding an angst-ridden interior of Jane to the naive, but promising, agent Van Pelt. Lisbon is the one to worm her way into my heart- her amusement and disbelief at Jane's antics are always entertaining. Plus I love that she (like Beckett) is the lead detective.
N: Nicole Kidman
baggy7She seems like such a nice, classy woman. I'm not a big fan of most of her movies, but I'm sure I'd love her in a movie that's my speed. I did like her in Moulin Rouge! :D There's one. I remember hearing that she'd never talk about her relationship with Tom Cruise which struck me as amazingly classy.
O: The Olympics
londongirl27I was concerned about what they'd mean for Vancouver, but now I'm getting more and more excited. I have my hopes for a few events, hopefully they'll pan out. :) The exciting thing? Not that they're in Canada, no, it's the fact that they're 3 hours behind so I'll see most of them live! :D
P: Patrick Jane
londongirl27He's a great main character, an antihero if I've ever seen one. I can easily see him being killed off in the series finale, though, which would bum me out so much. Sometimes, though, he shocks me with his actions: like dancing with Lisbon, actually opening up to Lisbon? That one floored me.
Q: Quantum Physics
x_nothing_hereWhat the fuck? I know nothing about Quantum physics.
R:Ron/Hermione
lissomelleI really enjoy their banter. I guess part of it is that I love both characters individually (Harry and Ginny: there's a reason why I don't ship you two), but I also loved seeing how they could help each other.
S: Sushi
londongirl27 I wanted to try it for all of two seconds, then I became a vegetarian.
T: Tea
londongirl27Ooh, I love tea. All sorts. But my favourite is plain old orange pekoe. I take it with milk and a bit of sugar. My favourite herbal tea is spiced chai. :D I can drink it at almost any time of day, though I prefer before 7.
U: Umbrellas
x_nothing_hereThey're pretty, and I love hearing the rain on them. I, however, had my small umbrella break on my way to work. :( I have bad umbrella karma, I lost my umbrella before that.
V: Vidding
lissomelleI feel like it's the one way I can add to my fandoms. I can appreciate my fandoms, and I do, but to add to it? I don't make graphics, can't write worth a damn, and I can't think of other ways right now... so vidding it it. I love finding that song that fits perfectly, it's always from an odd source (a fanmix for another fandom, music from another movie or show or ad, whatever it is, inspiration will strike).
W: Winter
x_nothing_hereWinter sucks. Winter olympics are fun to watch.
X: X-Files
x_nothing_hereI loved that show, and then grew out of it. I don't know why, I should watch it again if I ever get the time or, yanno, actual inclination.
Y: Year 2012
x_nothing_hereI don't believe that hype, partly because calculating time always seems fraught with miscalculations (hell, shouldn't we be in 2014 or so now?)
Z: Zoo
x_nothing_hereIf they have open rnages and support conservation efforts I won't complain, but I doubt they're all the great.
