Leeka.
That's all I'm saying about my blog.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Wednesday, November 21, 2001--02:23 p.m.
Damn you, Pitas, WORK! *kicks computer*
(BTW, I'm living at my mom's house where there's no internet to finish eight - now seven YAY - essays.)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Monday, November 19, 2001--05:16 p.m.
Oh yes. Randy Giles.
LMAO!!! Though I was almost sobbing by the end. Poor Willow. Okay, poorBuffypoorGilespoorTara, but mostly, poor Willow, even if she did deserved it. On the bright side, didn't you dig that ending shot? ^_^
I'm glad you managed to download it Jeannie, (it looked like one of the porn fuzzy clips on one of my VCRs too >_<) because that episode rocked. Buffy has been awesome this season.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Monday, November 19, 2001--12:12 p.m.
I owe a lot of people emails. Which is amazing because I only email three people on a regular basis. My bad. And yes, Jeannie, that's a good start for the Oliver Wood shrine. What gorgeous pictures! I can't wait for any mp3s of that lovely Irish accent of his *drool* You also forgot bouncing. I do believe I saw Linh bouncing on her seat in front of me during the theatre, but with that Quidditch match, I was bouncing as well ;D It's about time you gave my Snapey Boy a break. You will worship him by book five, I swear.
And sorry about being so rushed and abrupt at the CBS yesterday. My dad was waiting for me outside. If that doesn't tell you how badly my parents wants HK movies, I don't know what will. Oh, Mumsy loved the two movie I borrowed for her during the weekend so much that she made me neglect my schoolwork to watch them with her. You have to love a mother like that. Also loved the two movies: Wing Chun (I SO recommand this movie! Currently in the thrall of the most awesome Michelle Yeoh now), and Blade of Fury (I cried, yes I did. Haven't been that touched by a film since "Bullet in the Head.")
Anna, I just read your fic and I love the premise. Send the full comments soon, though the email will have to wait, as I have one week to finish eight essays. Procrastination sucks.
Just posted a Karenfic that is all pretensive and trite and wacked out and nonsensical, but for some reason, I'm so in love with it and with myself because I wrote it. Go figure. Speaking of fanfics, to all the kind people who made this possible, thankee!
MOVIE SPOILERS: Yeah, I wish there was more of the twins too. I love the twins. Though as much as I love the movie, I didn't like the actor they got to play Harry. You could just see him trying to figure out the lines in his head and then say them. Maybe it will come more naturally to him in the second movie. I'm already anticipating the third :D
I need to see the Lord of the Rings. The trailer brought tears to my eyes.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Saturday, November 17, 2001--12:14 a.m.
*squeals* Let's hunt and eat those possums ^____^ You New Zealanders rocketh.
Aiya! I refuse to eat that stinky, yucky, foul tasting herbal medicine and you call me a brat? Just what kind of a mother are you?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Friday, November 16, 2001--06:20 p.m.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
You got to announce the deliciousness of Oliver Wood before me, you wrench! Oh, the accent, THE accent! And yes, Snape had an accent too. And he looked damn good in his cloak *swoon* I just wish they had more of him. Threatening people. He didn't get to threaten people enough. But oh, Alan Rickman... And yes, there was much squealing and finger pointing when he appeared. I want to live in Slytherin with Snape. I want to live in Hogwarts, period. And watch Sue slash everyone there *lol*
The Quidditch was awesome, but let's not forget the excitement that was Jeannie's driving skills ;) Listening to Buffy at the same time, no less.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Friday, November 16, 2001--12:40 a.m.
John Grisham sucks.
I had to get that off my chest. The guy can't write a decent character. If you want a good courtroom drama, read "To Kill a Mockingbird." And "Midwives". Though I wouldn't recommand a pregnant woman to read the latter. Nothing like reading sixty pages of the slow, agonising death of a woman in labour to make a female think twice about having kids. But I did thank my mother profusely for enduring the long hours it took to bring me into this world. Mumsy, I love you.
My bad. That's what I get for not emailing. Hope the servers behaves soon. I miss your entries, dear.
Maria, sorry about the sad news. *hugs* I wish I knew what to say. Don't worry too much about the fanfic. When the muse hits, you'll do fine then. If you need a break, take a break, as much as I will suffer for it *grin*
That was more information than I wanted to know. *am speechless with horror* I knew you were crazy, but the harmonica. I will never look at you the same way again XD You know, I've never tasted ostrich meat in my life. Or llamas for that matter. NZ must be an awesome place to live if you get to make burgers out of them *gets hungry* So both you and Emily are short? That is so cool! Does Emily read your blog? And exactly why are the guys of your family nuts?
Of course Satsuki-chan is cool. She's totally her own person.
It's good to have the cat back ^__^
So I borrowed "Zen of Sword" (So bad I couldn't find any sites with pictures to show you) and "Cowboy Bebeop" from the CBS. "Cowboy" kick ass as usual. "Zen", on the other hand... I've seen it when I about thirteen or so and I remember loving it then. How opinions change. Well, at least my mother, who I borrowed it for, enjoyed it. And Cynthia Khan has a face I could stare at for hours. Other than that, witness my disgust in how every warrior has to scream before he swings his swords. And boy, do they swing their swords a lot.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Thursday, November 15, 2001--10:57 p.m.
I'm so glad my phophetic dream didn't come true ^____^ *massive glomp* It's wonderful to have you back, darling.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Wednesday, November 14, 2001--11:31 a.m.
Damn you. Blog more. Well, maybe I should get to your email first ^^
ALISON IS COMING BACK TOMORROW! I miss her ;_; I'm also wondering if she got me anything, but mostly, I miss her like crazy.
Satsy-darling, I actually had a teacher trying to convince me and my class to smoke. Should have seen his horror when he found out no one in the class had ever even tried it. Seriously, we never did. My friends made up the majority of the class and we were all no-dating, no-drugs, no-smoking, no-party freaks who made snow angels during lunch hour. Trust me, nothing gets you branded as a freak faster than making snow angels. And playing the harmonica but we weren't willing to sink to that level of freakishness.
I have just recently discovered that the word for "brat" in my langauge (a language which is currently unnamed in the English language), means, when you break down all three syllables: "Early Die Child." In other words, when a parent calls their kid a brat in my langauge, they are cursing them to an early death.
Yowzers.

To Pretty pretty Malike: Sorry, I'm one of those non-emailing mood, but I'll try to get to your emails by tomorrow. And I saw this weird documentary on being buried alive that reminded me of one of your fics (you know which one.) That was disturbing. It turns out that when they clear tombstones in graveyards for fresh burial plots, they found some coffins with ripped and torn linings. Apparently, the body can revive itself after being "clinically dead" for several hours and we bury people alive more often than we think. Freaky. TLC comes up with the most disturbing documentaries. Anyways, to more pleasant things, glad to see that C/TB/X site and greywolves is up and running (*thumps-up* to Heikki and Hukka). Congrats on your nominations, dear! ^___^ I really hope your fics win an award.
Ammie: Actually, I could enjoy Bigwig/White Rabbit, but I'm afraid it would be awfully S&M (XD XD) And did you really audition to be hobbits for the movie? That's so cool. I would love to have an audition as an extra.
Me: I want to be one of the fish in the background, dancing behind Ariel
Them: All right, let's see you dance. *two seconds pass* That's more than enough! *has that look of someone recovering from some great suffering* Thank you! Um... we're going to have to reject you.
Awesome ^____^
Linh: So you finally saw Buffy. Glad you liked it! I'm just listening to "Wish I could stay" over and over again. I want to marry Giles too. What a voice! And he's such a sweet, gentle, smart, sensitive guy, but when he gets scary ^^ and he knows libraries. He made libarians sexy. The best part is that he's neither gay nor taken. No, he's just fictional >_<
Kerianne: So you got advance tickets too ^_^ I finally got mine from Jeannie today (Get the 1st season DVD!) I've worked at McDonald's so I know a thing or two about being documented for not having a perfect cash. Blah. And costumers can be really obnoxious. You have to ask them about six times if they want flies with it before they answer. But hey, the movie is coming out so for an afternoon, forget about your job and enjoy Alan Rickman as Snape.
Maria: I'm so glad you're liking Snape! Care to convert her to the dark side? ^^ Though I should explain, Satsuki-chan, that Snape is a very unlikable character. He's shrill and mean and bitter and holds really childish grudges and emotions that get in the way of his judgement. It's easy to hate and be disgusted with the guy. How they got Alan Rickman to play him is beyond me, but like I said, I'm not complaining. I love the guy. I'm glad Maria's enjoying him. Are you finished the fourth book yet? I swear, one of these days, I'll read Crime and Punishment. I know you liked it.
Quick note on the Pardoner in the Caunterbury Tales: what a truly fascinating guy. He does evil things and robs people and openly admits his evil deeds, yet he despairs over the fact that he cannot change and therefore has no salvation. Just freaky. Because I can identify with him so much. And his tale was truly chilling. Really gorgeously done. Especially the ending where we says, yes, he's evil, but he's sanctioned by the church and therefore, the only way to heaven is through his and the church robbing you blind. It's really vulgar. I love it!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Monday, November 12, 2001--07:27 p.m.
Ack! Jeannie, when you said you got the Harry Potter tickets, I didn't realise you meant you had them with you. I'll be sure to pick them up the next time I see you at the CBS. I can't wait for the movie!! Alan Rickman as Snape *swoon* Expect lots of squeals when he comes onscreen. I never thought Snape would so look damn sexy! I always thought of Snape as some skinny, snivering little twit with greasy hair and a hooked nose and a shrill but loud voice. Heh heh, they get Alan Rickman instead *beams* I used to like Snape just for his mind; it looks like I can like him for his looks now *^____^* And they're keeping the greasy hair!
I must voice my extreme shock and horror at McGonagall though. I thought she was much younger than Marilla Cuthbert. The scene in the first book with her and a lopsided top hot had me seeing Satsuki the dragon for some reason. Well, there goes my Snape/McGonagall fantasy. Ouch.
And I want to see that Buffy mug.
Anyways, I borrowed Cowboy Bebop and Trigun from the CBS for the last couple of weeks, and damn the idiot who took my Trigun. I want to finish the series badly. I'm also really enjoying Cowboy Bebop. You can't go wrong with a guy named Spike ^^ (Speaking of which, love your Spikebot.)
Also rented Heroic Trio. Such fun! It's cheesy and hokey and over-the-top and ludicrous and silly and and it does the mistake of taking itself seriously, which makes it even sillier, but it's really really fun. I love it. I mean, come on! Maggie Cheung, Anita Miu, and Michelle Yeoh? I had a blast.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Monday, November 12, 2001--12:39 p.m.
I repeat, you will NOT slash Bigwig with The White Rabbit.
But if you want to slash him with Yuuto *^______^*
ROTFLMAO!!!!! Bunny-san indeed XD That killed me XD XD
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Saturday, November 10, 2001--12:29 p.m.
There are a lot of reason why Jeannie and Linh rock, and here's yet another one to add to the list: Buffy musical MP3s!!!! I love you guys so much! They're on Jeannie's weblog, three of my fave song(especially the duet), but I should warn people not in North America that they carried enormous spoilers so you might not want to listen to them if you're the type who hates being spoiled. BTW, did you know David Fury and Marti Nixon did cameos in the episode? They have good voices! The whole cast is pretty talented, but for sure, Joss Whedon is amazing with coming up with songs. The guy can give andrew Lloyd Webber a run for his money, I am not kidding.
The best thing about being neighbours with the states is that we get our episodes on time :) Hey, Jeannie, sorry to hear about the excluding Quebec residents thing. I see it all the time regarding contests. I guess they're afraid about the whole separatist thing, but come on, what are the chances of that now that Lucien Bouchard has stepped down? Anyways, I hope your grandmother can help. And I was waiting for your Princess Leia comment XD I figured the CBS will be really busy for the next week. What a line-up!
Linh, I dig your new layout! And your Mommy loves you and cares for you, which is sweet, but still, I hope she lets you resume normal Linh activities soon. i have to see Maureen Johnson do that one day. I really have too. *snorts and laughs*
Strange, when I sneeze, my mom gets all worked up and freaked out and starts shoving medicine down my throat - which I don't need - but when I'm yelling in pain because I got a hair in my eye, she goes on reading her book without even offering to take the hair out. I had to get my seven-year-old niece to take it out, and boy, when people say the cure is more painful than the disease, they're not kidding >_<
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Saturday, November 10, 2001--12:26 p.m.
Hey, I was born first so you should give me back my birthday! XD That is so cool! As if being the first person I could go nuts about Karen and Aoki with wasn't cool enough, Kerianne *squeals* You know what that means: BIG BIRTHDAY PARTY THIS YEAR!!!
I hope your mom feels better soon. Your dad should be grateful that you're willing to translate for him ^__^
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Friday, November 9, 2001--11:18 p.m.
You will NOT slash Bigwig with the White Rabbit.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Friday, November 9, 2001--08:58 p.m.
Jeannie: This is so your fault. You know why it's your fault. I've been listening to "Wish I could stay," and "RIP" and "Under Your Spell" for an hour straight now. ^_^ Wow, I really love that Buffy musical. Giles singing! *gets teary-eyed* I love his voice!
Ali: Do you have YTV in that part of the country? (What a horrible Canuck I am. I thought you lived in the prairies! At least I know Alberta isn't in British Columbia. That must count for something) Because YTV shows Buffy on Saturday and you can catch the musical that way. Angel was excellent. Isn't Fred adorable? To quote the host: "I like her so much." BTW, I hope your midterms aren't going so badly.
ali: Good luck on the test! I'm sure you'll do very well. You seem like a very smart girl.
Maria, I had that Fuuma song stuck in my head all day, thank you very much *lol* That's one hell of a price difference for the pipe. I hope the insurance thing works out okay!
Epeeblade: No, I don't mind the interjection. And no flames of course. If anyone does, let me know and I'll yell at them (people will tell I can yell) because you said your views in a straightforward, inoffensive way. And they're good views I wish more people would listen to. Anyways, I understand that God doesn't hate homosexuals, which is great, but I have trouble that he hates homosexuality. I realise that we're allowed to love Subaru and Kamui and Seishirou and other flamingly gay guys, but can we love them *together*?
Ammie: WHAT? You want to take both!? I don't think so! They're mine. Oh, we're going to have to mudwrestle this one once and for all. As for this line: I wonder if the others think I'm strange for still reading kids books? Can't help it, it's a habit I picked up as a child ^_~ *snorts* You're a darling nutcase, you know.
Kerianne: Oh, the horrors your mom must be feeling! I would love it for something like that to happen to my mom, just to see how many things she would break in her frustration of trying to get her point across. You can just see me going, "no, Mumsy, I don't know what you're trying to say", when I perfectly do. Hopefully, you're a better daughter than that O.o
Malice: I want more. You know what I'm talking about. Get the next part soon.
Ugh, I'm feeling lousy because I'm feeling distant with my mother. But damn, the woman makes it so easy for me to get into a fight with her!!! She's a genius at it. Unfortunately, she's a bigger genius when it comes to guilt tripping. All she has to do is look lonely and forlorn, and boy, does she do a good job at it. I guess I should go over to the other side and make peace. Everything would be so much easier if she wasn't so clingy, but I guess it's an Asian thing. You leave them for a day and they make you feel they're going die of neglect and brokenheartness because you did. They also get really mad at you. Bah! I almost wish for more wholesome parents. Almost.
Because so many people are asking (all right, only two, but indulge me), my birthday is on January 15th. In case, you know, you want to declare a national holiday or something ^_~
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Friday, November 9, 2001--02:00 p.m.
*SHRIEK* Jeannie totally made my week! Thanks a bundle on the Buffy tape, dear! I ADORE that episode so much!!! *squeals* GILES SINGING! *dies* I love his voice, I love his voice, I love his voice!!! But the big surprise was just how good Tara's voice was. Holy crap, someone needs to sign that girl up. She can sing. Especially when she gets all low and throaty. Wow. The whole episode was just amazing. Someone needs to give Joss Whedon and Christopher Beck an Emmy for it because it totally kicked ass.
Also saw the Iron Monkey yesterday, thanks to CBS (I *heart* that store!) and it was fun. Not a deep movie, but my family and I loved it, particularly my Mumsy who loves HK movies about good guys beating up corrupt officials. She's totally into formula, the kind of person who if the bad guy wins, she'd throw a fit. I need to make her watch such a movie, just to see her yell at the TV screen when the bad guy waves his flag of triumph. I enjoy pushing my Mom's buttons^^ They're so easy to pushed. (It must be a daughter-mother kind of thing.)
Yeehaw indeed, Linh, I'm so looking forward to the HP movie. Just watch me cheer when Snape makes his appearance with his greasy hair. His hair *better* be greasy. Thanks for the tickets, Jeannie! I'd finally get a chance to see Linh. Polkaroo indeed. Though I'll be at the Comic Book Shoppe today since Rob is having that big sale. CHRISTMAS PRESSIES FOR ALL!!!
I just hope the post office doesn't miscalculate the date again. Blah.
Someone needs to get Anya to read Watership Down XD
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Tuesday, November 6, 2001--11:21 p.m.
*curses* Jeannie and Linh, I'm so sorry!!! The timer went on at the wrong time for my VCR so I didn't tape Buffy. I'm so sorry!! I did tape Angel (most excellent!). Do you still want the tape of Angel? "Angel loves me and I love him! You love us all and we all love you. We love you Angel!" ROTFLLLLLLL XD
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Tuesday, November 6, 2001--04:50 p.m.
A Y/K layout! Maria, it's good ;D
*WHINES* Jeeeee-NEE! Snape's my favorite character!! At least he improves in book four, or somewhat does. I'm getting out of class early today to watch Buffy and Angel. That is how badly I want to see Giles sing. And hopefully dance XD
Finally, a poem I actually like in Victorian Literature. I forget its name, but it's by Felicia Hemans and its about this bride who gets kidnapped by pirates during her wedding day and she burns their ship at the end of it. Half my class didn't like the ending because they thought the poet made a wimp out of the Eudora at the end when she prayed for pardon, but I liked that the poet made her human. I'm sick of people dissing females because they're not 100% male. I don't want to be 100% male. I like being female, thank you very much.
And I still think Dalila is sincere in trying to make peace with Samson. I love her character. She was so vivid.
It was beautiful outside today in Ottawa ^___^
