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

NO, NO THIS IS GREAT. I ALSO LIKE LEARNING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE - I am only self-absorbed most of the time, not all of the time. :D

1) I LOVED DIGIMON SO MUCH. I totally shipped Tai/Matt...years after I watched the show. I don't know how it crept on me afterwards but, god, Taito still makes me ♥ even now!
3) DDDD: That sounds painful and unfun. I hope it is feeling better! I'm a bit sore but that's mostly from stretching a lot in yoga yesterday, which is considerably less bloody.
5) OH PLEASE TALK TO ME ABOUT FOOTBALL, ALL THE TIME. I am so sad I only have one friend I can talk to irl about football and she's moving away from me next week. :( Everyone else is separated from me by such great distance! I make do with what I can online...

I USED TO HAVE AN ICON FOR THEM...but now I don't. I should reconsider re-uploading it, but I need room for...all these Inception icons...

Are you secretly me in a parallel life?!

As a Spurs fan, are you conditioned to hate Arsenal? I do so love sports rivalries, I do.

[meiface]

...what is this question, Cici. :|

1. YOU
2. YOU

...OKAY, NO, I'M KIDDING. Here is my real list:

1. Glenn Beck
2. Ann Coulter
3. Sarah Palin
4. Rush Limbaugh
5. ...Xuanzang (from Journey to the West, since it seems like everyone wanted a piece of him, lol)

The problem of course is thath I'd first have to be stuck with those people stranded in the mountains. But at least I would not feel as badly if I was forced to eat someone to survive...

BE LESS BITTER!! BE SWEET! /covers you in powdered sugar

[jibrailis]

...you are sitting on a turtle, Mei. That is not fair. I think I died of the cute.

Oh, and all those anime/manga fandoms. So many of which I share or once shared. GUNDAM WING, my gateway drug. CLAMP. HIKARU NO GO. TRASHY BL. Just the other day I went and reread my old yaoi collection and I laughed and I swooned and I wept crystalline tears of joy.

MACDONALD HALL. Staple of my childhood! Bruno and Boots were my heroes, and Cathy and Diane too.

...which leads to my question: 5 books you loved as a child!

[meiface]

I was at the aquarium! It was a statute statue (holy crap law typos...twice...) right outside. :D

YES, SO MUCH NOSTALGIA FOR OUR ROOTS. I obviously pay slightly less attention to them nowadays but I will never stop holding them dear in my heart. I realized I forgot Perfect Girl Evolution/Wallflower though! It is SO HILARIOUS. Also wrt BL manga, I am just waiting for the day Yamano Ayane finishes her freaking Viewfinder series. It's been so long since I've lost track of what's going on.

OH MY GOD, YOU LOVED MACDONALD HALL TOO? EVERYONE SHOULD LOVE THEM. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. Sometimes I feel like I've read every single Bruno/Boots fic in existence. :( Tiny fandom, why are you tiny?

God I read so much as a kid and loved so much. These are in no particular order:

1. The Giving Tree (makes me cry every single time - I cannot read this in public; it's just embarrassing for everyone)
2. I Want To Go Home! by Gordon Korman askdhfj <333 (and the entire Macdonald Hall series

[meiface]

Oh my god you have no idea how thrilled I am to find out more people know of (!!) and love Macdonald Hall. :DDDD Everyone should love those books (except maybe the last one, I've always been ~iffy on the last one). AND OH THE FICS FOR IT ARE SO GOOD. ♥ (this is my MH icon, heh)

Hmmmm.

1. TELEPORTATION. Seriously, how come science hasn't advanced far enough to make this possible yet?
2. Invisibility - though it'd also be really problematic so I feel like only select people should be able to access this power. Like...me. :D
3. Time travel - I admit it, I want to see what the regency era was like. AND ALL OTHER ERAS. How amazing would it be, seriously.
4. to cover all my bases: MAGIC!!!
5. and...the world so many slash-writers assume when writing their fics: that it doesn't matter what gender someone identifies as, the only that matters is the love between two people. It's an easy way to not have to deal with homophobia in fic, but it's something I wish the entire world would just accept as a baseline belief. :( What is there to fight

[meiface]

No, the Hollywood one was all right. The last one was...I forget what it's called, ugh, but it's the one with Boot's brother. :(

Oh my god I love Yuletide if for no other reason than the MH fic produced for it. ♥ YOU HAVE READ "MACDONALD HALL IS FABULOUS" RIGHT?

[weatherfront]

Look at you being adorable! :D Cute dress, also! This is a segue. Tell me about your five favorite items of clothing. That you own.

[meiface]

I'm going to take "favorite" as "stuff I wear all the freaking time that are super comfortable and also do not make me look like I crawled out of a cave". :D I like stuff that can be matched with other things!

In no particular order:

1. the green and purple plaid dress in the above picture :D
2. a pair of high-waisted white shorts that are...really short, but make my legs look long (which is always a plus when you barely hit 5'1"!) and go with - oh, everything
3. a red empire-waisted shirt with puffy sleeves (please ignore the extraneous people in this D: how awkward)
4. um, pleated black skirt!
5. ngl, this pink Aeropostale hoodie WHICH IS SO WARM AND FLUFFY :3

...photos stolen from FB so tell me if you can't see them.

[forochel]

oh my god mei in the third picture the guy to your left looks uncannily like my conductor in secondary school!

[meiface]

skdfjsdks all Asians look the same?
