da da daaan!

Hello, hello - this is the promised "introduction to Mei" post I said I'd be writing for all you new people (w-why are there so many of you?). Also, any old flisters who are curious! Really this is not that in depth and talks more about my fandom interests (I have a gazillion) than Who I Am As A Human Being, but I figure we have to leave some

MEI MEI. I am so excited for this post, you have no idea \o/

First, how are so you cute? I WOULD LIKE TO PUT YOU IN MY POCKET AND KEEP YOU THERE FOREVER OKAY. I WILL LET YOU HAVE WINE AND COOKIES. AND PORN. LOTS OF PORN.

I just...compartmentalize. Fandom is where I try to de-stress, so that is why I like to keep things happy and flaily with no drama or wank (or excessive angst).

I could have written these exact words myself. LIKE, FOR REAL. I deal with unpleasant crap in RL because I have to, so when I come to fandom I just want to flail and squee and CAPSLOCK UNTIL I COLLAPSE. ALSO: PORN.

And, as for top five, I should like to know your five favorite things about Inception fandom. Except... that is totally a fannish thing and not me prying into your RL, so you could also tell me five places you have visited and loved :D

Also, you should know that my flist is infinitely brighter with you on it and I am so glad that I found you. NOW, INTO MY POCKET YOU GO ♥♥♥

hahaha I have been misleading, Bina, I am really not that exciting - I am just all over the place in fandom so I always have something to talk about! :D

I think the hyperactive gayness of kpop fandom gives everyone a fic writing boost and then it usually fades out and you're left sitting there like "woah, how much did I write?" ...and I'm going to refrain from making a sex metaphor there.

top 5 favourite characters in Harry Potter, and why.

[meiface]

I think that's a good point actually - the hyperactiveness, I mean! Because kpop is not a closed canon, stuff keeps happening all the time, which means there's always new material to inspire new fics! And then it all adds up and you're like "...whoa."

Hmmmm, I've never really laid this out. Let's see. (WOW, BLOCKS OF TEXT, SORRY. /puts in some paragraph breaks)

1. Draco Malfoy - because I like morally ambivalent characters! And, actually, mostly because of sarahtales/mistful/Maya's old HP fics. And then the fandom helped me develop the rest of my interest. Favorite is easily, easily Draco

[black_goose]

stuff keeps happening and your shipping preferences changes and new bands debut and you get sucked into them and sometimes I am so proud of you for getting out, while I'm still feeling a little like an addict who just can't let go :|

LUNA I freaking love Luna. She's just, such a unique character. I know that she'd probably annoy me irl, though, just like Hermione would, but set down on page like that, they're easily two of my favourites. I love how complicated characters in Harry Potter are. There's a lot of grayness in most, if not all, of them.

[meiface]

god I can't even imagine keeping up with all these new bands. It was hard enough just keeping up with SJ. D: But yeah, kpop is this big chaotic vortex that sucks you in and never lets you go. I have no idea how I got out of it, haha.

Yes, yes, the moral grayness is what makes them so interesting and more fun to explore in fic! Mmm now you make me want HP fic. SO MANY DISTRACTIONS.

[hoyah]

xD Lol i love your intro

[meiface]

Do you have no questions about who I am, Mai?

[hoyah]

:D i just need to know you're a cool person who gives me hot choco when i'm feeling down.

[meiface]

True! The important things in life are those. :3

[transitorial]

HI MEI HI. I love seeing these posts even though I technically knew these things? They are so much fun.

As for the Five Things: five places you enjoy shopping! (I'm in the mood to talk about clothing. Don't ask me why.)

[meiface]

hehe yes this is mostly for people who aren't all in-the-know via my RL journal. HOW WELL WE KNOW EACH OTHER NOW, isn't it awesome? (you should post more often so I may pry into your private life too

[transitorial]

lol, I really couldn't tell you why I don't post about my private life! Mostly I think it's because I find it's incredibly boring. orz

AMAZON IS WONDERFUL. And full of things I don't need but want anyway.

I dunno why I'm feeling like a clotheshorse at the moment. Also, I envy you so much for being able to wear things from China/Korea. /totally not built for such things!

[meiface]

sometimes it's just a lot of effort to type it all up after you've already lived through it - at least for me, anyway. But if you should share for us curious nosy souls, heh.

It's okay - the tradeoff is that I am not built to wear 90% of clothes sold in the US. :(

[svz_insanity]

I adore you. <3 :D Just wanted to let you know!

Five of your favorite desserts!

[meiface]

The adoration is mutual! :3

God, this might be hard because I don't have a huge sweet tooth, or it might be easier because that limits the kinds of desserts I love...

1. green tea ice cream, oh my god
2. New York style cheesecake
3. that Korean dessert (I never remember where it's called) that is a fish-shaped ice cream sandwich with vanilla ice cream and red bean, mmm.
4. sweet nian gao
5. EGG TARTS! Do these count as dessert?

Huh, I just realized that most of these are Asian, haha. I don't like things too sweet!
