It's July 14th! That means it's Bastille Day. It also means I turn eighteen today. O_O

I'd like to thankrickyzehrer , steadfast  and halosphere , whose lovely surprises in the mail are the reason I am waiting every day for the postman to show up. <3 halosphere  also wrote me a wonderful fic here, sunflower_mynah  wrote me another lovely storyc here, and starspiritgate /misterbkeele  drew me some adorable art here. I can't stop ( Read more... )

Today is the Winter Solstice! 8D

I'll probably be lighting a candle, as I do for every solstice and equinox and various pagan holidays if I remember them, and putting it in the only candleholder I own, which is a skeletal hand. (Okay, so I just got given a glittery purple one, but I prefer the hand, which I call my Hand of Glory. Or maybe I'll ( Read more... )

It's September 22nd! And that means...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BILBO AND FRODO BAGGINS, HOBBITS OF THE SHIRE!

May you hair always be curly and your ale never run out!

I wish I could relax under the Party Tree with a hobbit's party spread (and considering their views on food, it would be HUUUUGE), relaxing and listening to their singing, instead of worrying ( Read more... )

So I woke up this morning, and when I looked in the bathroom mirror, I was like, "Ooh, panda... oh, wait, that's me."

More on that later, perhaps. For now:

Well, today, I come of age in the wizarding world. ;) In the world of Harry Potter, I'd be an adult. In real life, I'm stuck somewhere in between. Ah, the joys of turning seventeen.

And so I have a birthday treat - a story for everyone!

It's the first of April! :D

April Fools' Day has traditionally been a day for pranks and practical jokes. To me, pranks immediately bring to mind the Marauders. But to other more sane Harry Potter fans, they bring to mind the twins, Fred and George Weasley, and for good reason.

Almost their every appearance in the books (with the exception of Deathly ( Read more... )

Today is the 27th of March, which means... it's James' birthday! :DDD

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAMES 'PRONGS' POTTER!!!

Yes, I am a complete nerd who still adds things like this to her desk calendar and handphone calendar despite knowing it by heart. XP And proud of it!

Okay, I have spent ages trying to find a good pic of James, but the best fanart I know is ( Read more... )

It's the 25th of March - and we Tolkiens fans all know what that means!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, GONDOR!!!

Yes, Gondor, in Middle-Earth, adopted the 25th of March as its New Year after the War of the Ring, since that was when the Fellowship, particularly Frodo and Sam, overthrew Sauron. And of course, only complete nerds like me would bother to note it on ( Read more... )
