Thank You, Serry!

*glomps Serry and refuses to let go*
Went over to Serry's place for the Ratal gathering!
Lost all sense of time there. Turned out it was 9pm when I thought it was 7pm.
As of now, am functioning on 45 minutes sleep in 31 and a half hours. Somehow, I can't feel it.
Turned up in a certain outfit with a green-and-white striped tie. Did manage to attract attention of little girl at MRT station. She must be a HP fan. En route to Serry's place, a lady asked me if I was an exchange student. And if I was Japanese.
Watched
Once More, With Feeling, which
Faol so kindly taped. ^_^
1. There is material there which could make a Spike/Buffy 'shipper out of me.
2. What on earth am I saying?
3. Spike doesn't look so bad...
4. See (2).
5. There were some really good songs there. My favourite
has to be Spike's. He sounded like a vampiric version of Creed, 3 Doors Down, or NIN. His song was:
I died
So many years ago
You can make me feel
Like it isn't so
And why you come to be with me
I think I finally know
You're scared
Ashamed of what you feel
And you can't tell the ones you love
You know they couldn't deal
Whisper in a dead man's ear
It doesn't make it real
That's great
But I don't wanna play
'Cause being with you touches me
More than I can say
And since I’m only dead to you
I’m saying stay away and
Let me rest in peace
Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole six foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
So let me rest in peace
You know,
You got a willing slave
You just love to play the thought
That you might misbehave
Till you do,
I'm telling you
Stop visiting my grave
Let me rest in peace
I know I should go
But I follow you like a man possessed
There's a traitor here beneath my breast
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed
If my heart could beat, it would break my chest
but I can see you're unimpressed
So leave me be and
Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
Im a hole six foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
Let me rest in peace
Why won't you
Let me rest in peace?
Sounds absolutely wonderful when Spike sings it.
Also, I really liked:
I touch the fire, and it freezes me
I look into it, and it's black
Why can't I feel?
My skin should crack and peel
I want the fire back
Now, through the smoke, she calls to me
To make my way across the flame
To save the day
Or maybe melt away
I guess it's all the same
So I will
Walk through the fire
'Cause where else can I turn?
I will
Walk through the fire
And let it...
What's it going to take to strike a spark?
It's what they have inside
She will come
These endless days
Are finally ending in a blaze
And we are
Caught in the fire
The point of no return
So we will
Walk through the fire
And let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn
And let it burn!
Finally saw
Levizt. *smiles*
It was good to see everyone again ^_______________^
Did not sleep
at all. *wide-eyed expression* If Serry, Isilme and I weren't talking, we were singing, or they were drawing, and I was writing. Serry turned translator and made an entire manga comprehensible to Isilme and I. Said manga has some of the most beautiful art I have
ever seen, and bishonen even prettier than Chiho Saito's (Utena). *starry-eyed*.
Serry's stick insects... *gazes at them with interest* Have never seen
any quite so big. They're twice the size of those I see at the zoo. Was seized by strange impulse to let them walk over my arm. Did not succumb to said strange impulse.
We were in the kitchen at 8.30am, making pancakes and sausages. Very hobbity. *sunny smile* Made chocolate chip pancakes! (The ones I make taste better than they look. *thinks* Also, if you put in enough chocolate chips, you can hardly taste the pancake- *covers mouth*)
And Serry:
You do amazing art.
*still dazed*
*smiling dreamily*
In such a state, I wonder how I managed to get home at all. *amused*
Had a cooking course with Mom in the afternoon. Went to said cooking course after 45 minutes of sleep. The food was fantastic. Tomato, watermelon and mozzarella starter, with a squid linguine, and the most gorgeous tiramisu I have ever eaten. ^________^ Naturally the cook makes it look so easy, but I know the instant I try any such stunt in the kitchen... A comedy of errors will ensue.
And then I came home. And was still not tired. It must have been the food.
And, Because I Was High:
I made icons.
Also, have the distinct feeling that I was more than slightly insane. Listening to the Animaniacs theme song at Ratal gatherings at 7am in the morning, when you haven't slept for 20+ hours, did that to me.
Serry has really interesting icon ideas, by the way.
Which are also very fun to make.
Also, I would like to say:

Not a Legolas fan: You're not a Legolas fan, nor do
you want to be. You prefer the more mature,
experienced elf. Good for you.
What type of Legolas fangirl are you? brought to you by Quizilla*shrieks*
Is that Elrond smiling?Oh, and that quiz, it is fun, too. ^_^

You are the 'there is no spoon' kid! You are
undoubtably the coolest character in the entire
movie! Go you! Oh, and by the way- there is no
quiz. So you just wasted a precious minute or
so- on nothing. Sorry 'bout that, pal. That's
life in the Matrix.
It's Overdone But I'm Doing It My Way: Which Matrix Character Are You? brought to you by QuizillaEh?!

Haldir/Legolas
Which LOTR Slash Pairing Are You? brought to you by Quizilla
*nerk* It doesn't help that the Haldir/Legolas picture is pretty.
*laughter*
Suddenly I wonder about the content of said fanfic, but I shall not go there. ^_^
Oh yes, the Haldir/Legolas picture is pretty. The glow makes me think it was done by Theban Band.
well... I think you can guess. ; / at the content.
it's pretty!
Thank you for the icons~~~~ *hugz*
It was so fun with all of your over~~ And your choc chip pancakes were lovely, milady~ ^^
Amazing you stayed up so long...I conked out at 3. And didn't wake till 2am. Okay, I woke about twice because someone make noise, but promptly went back to sleep. And well, stayed awake from 2am till now, and during the meantime, finished reading Artemis Fowl (the first book) under friend's recommendations. Pretty nice.
I have no idea what to write in my LJ about the gathering we had yesterday/day before. ^^;;;
*grin* Thank you :)
I did sleep at 1.45pm ^_^ Then out for that cooking class. Otherwise, I'dve slept on... and on... and on. ;)
I like Artemis Fowl! ^_^ Glad you're reading it ^_^ Try the other two books! I think the Eternity Code was pretty good. *beams*
;) Don't worry ^_^ Even if you don't, the rest of us will write about it ^_^ Too good not to write about. ;)
Least I could do ^_^ If you think of anything else you want, let me know? *beams*
Stayover was much fun :D *huggleglomps Serry for hosting us* Fell in love with the manga art (can't remember the title ^^;) and the art in the game book (also don't know said game's title) Had fun talking with all of you. And oogled over Serry's art - which Chris & i must save from Serry's bin!! *launches stakeout by her bin* The pancakes & tea breakfast was yummy ^__^ Chocolatea! *cough* Sorry. Enjoyed self very much! Sleeping would've been a waste of time :P
*grin* Cooking classes & shows always make everything look so simple! But am sure that you'll be able to get it with little practice, and have fun trying ;D
Am making very random comments... too early to think properly. And am drinking carrot juice, which may also explain it XD Hope to see you on Tue! Haven't asked parents yet... >.<;
Oh, nice icon, btw :) *Pinky & the Brain theme plays* XD
@}% aingeal
Manga title of manga which I was trying to translate to you (and left the 'difficult' translations to Eleris ^o^ ) is "Kohri no Mamono no Monogatari" or I call it KMM for short.
Game book? Must be Suikoden (full name Gensou Suikoden)
Hmm....at first going to help parents at office today, but my lil one didn't want to go to office so I ended up babysitting again. Which means I'm going to be at home whole day today~~~~~ Love it~~
Anyway, the books were very pretty! ^__^
*suddenly imagines you, your sis, and your little one at the office* ^_^
Yes! Sleeping would have been a major waste of time! ;)
Carrot Juice again? ^_^
*points* There carrot. <8)=( *giggles*
I just died.
I made it 30 hours not sleeping. (Dozing off on train doesn't count XD)
Died? You?
*resurrects*
Dying is a bad, bad habit. *stern*
In the end, I made 38 hours awake with 45 minutes of sleep in between. But it was 26 full hours awake with no sleeping, so I guess you hold the record. Unless Serry does.
