Heh. I remember that ad of SRK. I did remember thinking he looked geeky but nice in glasses. =)

So what is it that you're doing in Sing, exactly? I know so little about you!

LOADED question... at the rate i'm going, it looks like never, but estimated time of completion is Winter 2010.

What do you do? apart from writing awesome fan fic?

Okay! So how long is this course? I thought you'd been living in Sing for a while now, am I wrong? =)

awesome fan fic

Hee. *blushes* Have you actually read any of it? *is curious*

Well, in RL I just finished my MBA, and I'm on the hunt for a job, now. So far it's been hard going, and you can probably tell I'm going slightly demented from staying at home so long. 0_o

I've been in Singapore for the past 2 months now. I've been visiting on an off for the past year now... your fan fic... i think i got lost, but i'm going to go look, and read, i promise.
MBA? where from?

Hee. This is what happens when I get too sucked in by fandom-speak, I guess. RL maney Real Life. ;)

As for the fanfic, it's cool if you don't wanna. I was just surprised because you didn't seem like the fandom-y type, from what I had seen so far. =)

And MBA from IIPM (okay, stop laughing now, plzkthx) Hyderabad. In HR. =)

But, yes, recommend something you wrote, and i shall read. i promise. i like original work though :)

Bwahaha! You were left scarred by a little bad Potter-slash? Oh, then I am SO glad you've not seen the depths that fandom can sink to. Dobby/Harry and Draco/Giant Squid are only few of the good ones I recall. And, of course, Aberforth/his goat. XD

Well, I know you're in the Potter fandom, so I'll link you to this. And I have no idea if you're into 'The Lord of the Rings', but I have written a lot of 100 word drabbles (no scary slash, I promise XD), link here.

i'm not laughing

Why do I not believe you? *glares suspiciously*

Draco/Giant Squid WOW! link me! :P
I think potter was not an exceptional series. i read them. i dont own any.

*now i laugh*

Heh. Sadly, I think I was too scarred to read more than a few lines of it. And even more scarred to actually save the link. :P

Although, I do have this. I think I had tears in my eyes by the time I finished, I laughed so hard. Read the comments, too, some are even better than the original post. XD

Hmm. So what kind of books do you read? =) I'm into fantasy/scifi, but I've also read a lot of Wodehouse, Christie, etc. etc.

*now i laugh*

*pouts*

Did you get to the mono-dialogue between Remus and Sirius in the comments? I fell about laughing at that one. XD

These are all actually summaries of Potter fanfic that the poster compiled. The first post was so successful that about 30 odd batches followed. This was actually the 'Greatest Hits' collection, you can find more gems if you browse backwards. =)

Your reading habits seem to be very similar to mine. =) I do love Pratchett, too. And cummings's 'i carry your heart' has to be one of my favourite poems of all time. And speaking of King, have you read 'It'? =)

can't recall, child. but possibly, yeah. i remember i went through a Stephen King phase... and i was scared witless when i read Desperation. i think i stopped reading him after that! :(

Didn't read 'Desperation', but the one that scared me off King was his 'Dreamcatcher'. *shudders*
