Worn me down, like a road
Jul. 13th, 2005 02:45 pmI -was- going to comment on the 12th because I AVOIDED THE FUCKING T.V and only found out how it went late last night and today but I'm not. Here are just the headlines:
- Tourists caught in riot
- Pensioners bus attacked returning from bingo
- Police attacked as parade passes
- Three hurt in city disturbances
- Bomb discovered on railway line
- Woman is raped while at Bonfire
- Officer's stolen weapon recovered.
And that was just the headlines. Fucking hell. Great fucking country I live in.
Anyways, fuck talking about that. Here, for my own amusement.
trowicia felt guilty for not having read Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in ages so I did a really ghetto quick summary. Here is said summary:
HERE, a summary of PS!
Harry - thinks he normal. Talks to snakes though. As you do. Magical letters appear. Drives adopted family crazy as the coconut. Giant appears - "'Ere 'arry, yar a Wizard." 'oh. Ok then.' Wizarding world is random. Goes to Hogwarts - shares food with Ron. Harry + Ron - friends.
Hermione = bossy. Boy's make Hermione cry - TROLL APPEARS - Defeat troll, trio formed. Mirror shows desires, Harry becomes an addict, Dumbledore cuts him off, Harry play Quiddich, Everyone thinks Snape is OMG!EV1L. Giant 3-headed dog, put him to sleep - pass puzzles and face unassuming twitching professor who happens to have The Dark Lord in the back of his head. Typical. Harry burns HIM PRECIOUS. Dumbledore smacks the professor down, Harry passes out. Is sent a toilet seat and sweeties. All is lollypops and candy-canes.
There's also some stuff at school and dragons. Your typical Scottish boarding school, I think.
Hahaha, this is why I shouldn't be let out in the world. Also, stolen from
trowicia who I am going to spam with stuff about me when I come back from down the street:
I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.
But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes office supplies."
I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal. Or not. Not like I'm gonna come after you with a gun if you don't.
Right. Kick Matthew out of his bed - then down the street I go~!

I have tried at least reading it aloud to some of my loved ones, but always derailed because while it may be easier for them listening to me say it, I can't bloody take it. It's maddening to do the voice for that agonising bitch Umbridge. I want to slice her nose off and drown her in bubotuber pus ~_~
*coughs*
You sidelined my creative energy with your flurry of posts, oh pfft. But I forgive you, cause you's t3h l0v3, and I don't see it going away for long.
Starting at the back-ish, and working my way back up.
But your talk of GHETTO HARRY POTTER, and the summary, makes me inspired to write again XD
How awesome is that?

You sidelined my creative energy with your flurry of posts, oh pfft. *Grins* Sorry. I've been spamming a lot over the past few days.

You are teh l0v3 too! The only way is up~~

*Grins* My Ghetto Harry Potter was the result to too little sleep and an entirely too crazy mind. I actually re-read it the next day and went '...WTF was I on last night?!' Crazy stuff. Look for Ghetto Chamber of Secrets coming soon~!
I am so thrilled I've inspired you to write again! That is really awesome! XD

I'll watch I will. Intentifiedly.
What you describe is the body's natural state of coaxing out new situations, new experiences metaphors and interpretations. The body is capable of so many different states and modes of thinking. It is really incredibly powerful in incorporation with a life of making art. So I always cherish the moments where I'm visited by the three o'clock faerie.
It *is* really awesome. there's no way around that ^^

Date: 2005-07-13 08:43 pm (UTC)As for stuff about me... I guess I'll spam you too~ (all out of love, of course) XD ♥
My real name is Tricia. I live in a small house in a ghetto neighborhood (in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, USA, run by a complete idiot for a president) with my mom, dad, and younger sister. I have two pets: a quaker parrot and a shih tzu. We've always thought our quaker parrot was a male (we've had him for over 10 years), but a few years ago, "he" laid an egg. That came as a surprise. XD; /random
Um... I go to a private art college, majoring in media arts and animation. I'm very self-concious about my artwork though .__.; ("OMG this sucks!!" ::rips it apart::) ^^;
Uh... I'm a total dork. :D And have mad, mad love for Harry Potter and all things related, especially Sirius/Remus. XD But you already knew that. ^w^

Date: 2005-07-13 09:59 pm (UTC)Ah the love you have for me! ♥ XD
What's private art college like? I don't think you should be self-conscious about your art. But I've never seen any. But I still don't think so.
You are a wonderful utter dork!
......No way! You have mad, mad love for HP. You could have fooled me. ^_^
