My friending meme, the one I just sort of threw together and launched at you guys, is still going pretty strong! As is this one. GO. FRIEND. BE MERRY.

AND HELLO TO ALL MY NEW FRIENDS FROM BOTH OF THOSE MEMES! I promise not to scare you away... right away, anyway. XD

There is this sticky post that may help you get to know me/add me elsewhere and next entry I'll do some sort of "get to know me" meme that'll help, too.


It's New Year's Eve and I had plans for the first time in my life but since everyone in my house is sick with this super-flu thing I figured I'm needed at home. I think I'm finally catching the virus though, because I'm achy and my throat hurts. :/ My sister's working though, so there will be a lot of music happening in here. Just me and the dogs, OH YEAHHHHH.


AH 2010 I'M GOING TO MISS YOU. 2009 was so awesome and I was sad to see it go. But 2010 was the year of screenwriting! playwriting! creative writing! stage managing! DC! drunky times! concerts (outside and in)! Boston (♥)! Gay Bars! Quidditch! television production! charity events! I'm getting a little misty just thinking of it, not even going to lie.

When it came to the media challenge of the year, I failed miserably with the movies and worst with the games (;_;) this year, but reading-wise... is up to your interpretation. I went hardcore on manga and I... read a lot of the NYTimes on my phone? I'M SMART, TRUST ME. Also, I sort of... forgot about the movies after a while. I was so busy I went back and looked through my Miso account for some round-about dates on the last few months. So that may not be as accurate as last year's. Whoops?

I see the IPAD as basically a large ITOUCH. It looks great, but don't know if it worth the cost?

If you get a kindle do you think it will decrease the amount of "real" books that you buy read ?

Did you do a review of UP IN THE AIR ?

It's also really heavy. I just don't want a LCD display. I like the e-ink of the Kindle/nook. But I also want to read Manga and comics which is probably impossible on e-ink readers. I have to look things up.

I doubt it. I would probably use it most for downloading things I can't find in bookstores. PDFs, instruction manuals, classics that are public-domain, etc. Also as an easier way to read magazines and news without wasting trees and space. But if books come out on both e-reader and print and it's cheaper, I might get them for the e-reader. But I'm not going to wait around for a e-reader version when I can easily go to BN and grab the hardcover.

I think I did, but nothing really in depth. You would probably really enjoy it though. I found it really uplifting considering it was essentially about a modern hermit lifestyle.

I love my Kindle. It enables me to carry a heavy book without hurting my arm. But I still buy printed books. I love the feel of books in my hand. I find that the iPad is an expensive toy, but I want it too.

I think if I get a Kindle I'd be more enticed to read. I can throw all the stuff I want to read on there and I'll see it as a checklist. I can't buy anything else until I finish alll the stuff on it! The iPad comes with too many games/apps and would be a distraction. For that I could just read stuff on my computer, where the internet is just as much of a distraction.

I adooooore my iPad, I'd definitely recommend the splurge. Being able to hold the internet in your hands and touch it and change is awesome, and it's great for games and social apps.

LOL AT 37, THAT'S BASICALLY ME THIS YEAR AS WELL.

I just feel like if I wanted to read things on a LCD screen I could just read them on my computer? And if I really want the games and stuff, I can just get a iTouch when necessary. But my iPod is still in working condition so... idk, if I had the money I'd just get them all, lulz.

I FEEL SO BAD. When I was younger I was never seen without a book and now it's like LOL WHAT BOOK. I mean, it took a while for me to decide what genre I liked when I outgrew young adult novels, but now that I have them... I just needed the time.

I had a real similar reluctance to it -- basically kept wondering what the hell I'd ever use it for. But, honestly, thinking about it or experiencing one for a few minutes in a store is nothing to actually using it.

That's the thing -- you could do all three of those things on the one device. It's really, really different from using a computer, and it's not just a large iPod Touch. It's just a product you actually have to use to realize how much you can actually use it for.

HAPPYHAPPY NEW YEAR GIRL! I promise to comment more on your entries this year, because you always have so many things to talk about and great things to say!

Books. I remember books. Why do I keep forgetting books? I see a nice book and then my tv queue interrupts.

lulz, 2010: YEAR OF CRAZY SCHOOL STORIES. But they were pretty much the ONLY new people I met this year, so. IT SEEMS SO LONG AGO THAT I HAD CLASSES WITH EACH OF THEM. And idk that I'll spend that much time with any of them ever again, but I plan on helping you with your "meet new people!" resolution, so I WILL TRY.

Also, DUDE. I forgot to mention it on LJ, but the week before school ended I saw my old Geology teacher? The one who did those Saturday field trips, idk if you remember, but yeah. I SPENT A WHOLE SEMESTER AND THREE LONG SATURDAYS TALKING TO HIM ABOUT RUSSIA AND THE UKRAINE AND ROCKS AND HE DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER ME.

Also, even though we were only supposed to get our puppy in May, we miiiiight be getting this one, in a couple weeks?? idek, he's just been SITTING THERE on the website looking all sad, and apparently his siblings all got adopted, but he was the smallest of the litter, and also for some reason people don't like black animals as pets (same thing with cats! I have NO IDEA why, seriously, wtf, people), soooo nobody wants him. :(
But today my mom emailed the breeder lady about him (I mean, we were signed up with her for a later litter, so we've been in touch with her), and she said he's really sweet and friendly and just likes to cuddle. Plus, like, he's so tiny, he doesn't really know how to even DO much yet.

VIDEOS!:






...soooooo yeah. IDK, IDK WHAT IS HAPPENING RN, BUT EVERYONE SEEMS TO REALLY LIKE HIM....???? SOOOOOO WE'LL SEE, I GUESS.
