So I heard from a friend from school again. She made my life hell for a while in grade six, and then we were best friends from about grades 8 to 13. And then we kind of lost touch; she went to Kiel to study medicine, I stayed at home and studied geekiness in Cologne ( Read more... )

I just found a Ring*Con report.

That's not overly surprising. There's lots of Ring*Con reports around.
The surprising part is that I know the author. She sits in some of my Japanese seminars. I secretly call her Hobbit-san because she looks like a hobbit and sometimes dresses like one, too. But I didn't know that she, you know, actually was one. ( Read more... )

Only one week late. With photos. In English.
Click on the thumbnails for larger versions of the pictures. They mostly aren't very good, because I was still experimenting with the camera most of the weekend. They're many, though - and I'm already leaving the most blurry or redundant ones out!
Anyway,

I'm back at home. And tired ( Read more... )

Happy birthday, kaneda!

I'm really sorry I couldn't make it yesterday - I suck at planning. I hope we can celebrate next week...

Bugger alle this for a larke. I am NOT going to play that one-handed elf again. One Ring*Con with a cramp in my hidden right hand was more than enough. Grr.
I suppose this calls for YET another dying session tomorrow morning.
*sighs*

Next year, I'll just be Éowyn again. End of discussion.

Let's start with the good stuff:
I got a package today from leany75! Leany, you are an amazing insanely generous person! I thought it was or, not and!
The package, for the curious, contained my very own Ravenclaw (book!Ravenclaw, not movie!Ravenclaw, whee!) tie, and a beautiful notebook from Paperblanks. And a lovely letter. And Tolkien stamps. And an ( Read more... )

GoF trailer! OME YAY!

Also, Ring*Con is nearing. The Japanese reexamination is on October 11th, with the Con taking place from October 7th to 9th, so, fun. Have to finish my costume, this time, as ladyelleth kind of talked me into being Fëanor this time. This is so not going to work, but it's an excuse to see what I look like with black hair, I suppose ( Read more... )

According to the new Ring*Con flyers, David Wenham will come to Ring*Con 2005.

*keels over and is ded*
*which is a good thing because zombies don't have to take Japanese exams*

It's not yet on the official page, but if it's on the flyers, it must already be confirmed, right? right?
