To new friends, music pimpage, and a meme!

I've never made LJ friends so quickly before, but whee, my_vicodin for some proof, hee.)

11. What's something weird you enjoy that gets you odd looks from other people? Singing to myself. Seriously - I sing when I'm walking on the streets, sometimes when I'm out skating or running. I'm sure I look like a total spazz.

12. Your religious beliefs. None. Well, I'm ( Read more... )

Gah, I fail so much for not having answered the H/C/Lisa friending meme. It feels a little after-the-fact now, no? I'm definitely going to post my post-ep House comments unlocked from now on though, to open up potential flailing.

I love that you share your talent for being able to sleep wherever, but you so do not sleep enough!

People that don't signal when lane-switching SUCK. Is it really so hard? And then there are the people who insist on driving 20 miles under the speed limit. AND THEN THEY GIVE ME THE FINGER FOR RIDING THEIR ASS. I get road rage, I really do.

Thank you, you sneaky microbial bastards!

It's never too late to go make friends, hon! Says the person who clearly can't concentrate on work today. You could always just wander through the meme and make friends that way, even if you don't post anything yourself anymore. But it was fun!

And definitely unlock your House comments. The flail potential MUST increase.

I HAVE SO MUCH ROAD RAGE TOO, OMG. I really do get so randomly angry when people cut into my lane that I'm sure I will one day cause a bad accident just to prove a point. Sigh.

*pokes you to do the meme too!!*

I did end up finishing a reply yesterday before running off to work -- haven't had a chance to go through all of the replies yet, though. I had actually started answering when it was the top entry on house_cuddy, but then I got sidetracked. Boo ( ... )

It's crazy - there are just too many entries to read on that meme, and so many friends to make, lol!! Is fun though. You really do get to meet some of the people who you've seen around the communities but well... never got around to talking to!

OH MAN I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT VARIABLE SPEED. I hate those idiots who decide to speed up only why they realise that they want to beat me out on the road. This is, of course, NOT GOOD AND NOT SAFE AT ALL, because it just makes me mad and I floor the gas pedal and come thismuchcloser to getting into an accident or something. CLEARLY OUR MIND TWINNESS EXTENDS TO ROAD RAGE LOL.

*stalks you on the meme* ;)

Oooh. "Brave" is REALLY pretty. It reminds me of something, though, but I can't quite figure out what... Can't wait for that album, though.

AND HEY. IDINA AND JOSH. YOU TRYING TO GET ME TO GO TO LONDON FOR CHESS OR SOMETHING? LOL Their version of "The Prayer" was insanely pretty, though.

Isn't Brave just LOVELY? It grabbed me the very first time I listened to it - maybe it's just one of those songs that are so good you feel you MUST have heard it somewhere before. I've had that experience before. ;)

AND OMG, IDINA AND JOSH FTW, LOL. I wasn't PIMPING CHESS OR ANYTHING *AHEM*, but you must admit. Them singing The Prayer was just too awesome to be believed. ;)

Hee, thanks for the welcome! And I haven't heard Idina's Josh Groban duet before! I'll listen to it now :D

ellixian January 16 2008, 04:15:08 UTC
No problem at all, so glad to see you round these parts! And wasn't the duet gorgeous?! Idina kills me. Josh kills me. Separately. Together, I'm just... IDK, I shouldn't even bother to articulate how DEAD I am. ;)

*uses a PD icon because of the daisy in your icon, LOL - I am such a dork*

OMG TANYA CHUA! i really am proud of her. GO SINGAPOREANS! SINGAPOREANS FTW!!
i love her cover of yellow by coldplay. :D

and sometimes..at some angles..indina reminds me of LE.

*FLAILS AT YOU FOR LOVING JAY CHOU TOO, BECAUSE HE IS MADE OF WIN*

I AM GOING TO HIS CONCERTS THIS WEEKEND AND IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE MY BRAIN EXPLODE LOL!!!

I know which song you're talking about too - it's called In The Name of the Father (Yi Fu Zi Ming), and it's INCREDIBLE. One of my favourite songs ever, because it's so clever and complex and DIFFERENT. The video for that is the coolest thing ever. *lovesJay*

Can you speak Mandarin actually? At least a little??

And yes, I LOVE Tanya Chua. I'm massive proud of her and her voice is SO nice. Love her cover of Yellow too!!

LOL I SO DID NOT SEE AN LE RESEMBLANCE WITH IDINA!! Actually, I get flashes of resemblance when I see Gillian Anderson (another fangirl crush for SURE). But Idina rules my heart at this point, LOL. (Not as much as LE, obviously.)

The cab price hike is INSANE. As are the fuel prices now. We should just walk everywhere. :p

I LOVE NYC, OMG. Went at the end of 2006 and am SO dying to go back again...

I can theoretically speak and understand Mandarin - studied it for ten years after all - and I STILL don't get what he's singing. So hey, who cares. Good music is good music, LOL!! Seriously: when I DO sing along, I make up the lyrics based on what I think I'm hearing. Which, going by my experience on English songs, is already not a very smart thing to do. ;)

So who knows, your Mandarin might be a little better than mine, hee. ;)

LE AND GILLIAN HAVE THAT GORGEOUS BIG EYES, KICKASS DEMEANOUR THING GOING. Their colouring is TOTALLY different, obviously, since GA is blonde (or a redhead as Scully). But there's... SOMETHING, DEFINITELY.

IDINA SHOULD HAVE SUNG IN ENCHANTED. *SADSADSADFACE*

NYC IN DECEMBER WILL HAVE YOU FREEZING YOUR ASS OFF, LOL - trust me on this! I went there in December 2006, and it hit close to zero temperatures. It was a lot of fun walking around the VERY windy Big City then, I tell you!! ;) But it's an experience of a lifetime. I NEED TO GO BACK, DAMMIT!!!!!!
