I got tickets for tonights show at 8pm (Nathan Phillips Square) but the person I was supposed to go with cancelled on me. I shouldn't have bought the tickets to begin with due to budget reasons, so if anyone wants to buy em off me that would be fantastic (they were $50 for both but I'll accept the best offer). Or if anyone wants to buy one off me and go with me that would be awesome too.

I'm going to cleaning up my friends list, removing old journals, journals I spend too much time reading, etc. No offense to anyone I remove, I still be friends with ya IRL!

If you could have one thing right now, anything in the world (naughty or nice!), what would it be?

I'd have an espresso in a cafe in the Algarve.

6/4/08 08:51 pm - Thanks Rob!

OMFG calling all booksluts! I dare you to look at this shelving setup and not touch yourselves!

Sooooo much space for books! And collectibles! And comics!

*ded*

Yes, even the mere thought of lots of books and comics is exciting to me. Deal with it.

6/2/08 09:08 am - Call for submissions!

I'm looking for some content for the Nerd Girl Pinups site! If you write, either casually or professionally, and would like to either submit an idea for an article/review or submit some of your previously featured work, please let me know! Comment here with your email addy or send an email off to info at nerdgirlpinups.com.

Looking for a wide variety of writing, everything from opinion pieces to reviews to short stories, and in all types of nerdy genres (science fiction, technology, comics, movies, music, video games, comedy, etc).

Currently this is volunteer only but I'm hoping to eventually be able to give my regular writers some sort of renumeration. Right now I can offer links to your sites/projects featured on your piece on the Nerd Girl site as well as a profile on the site to promote whatever you'd like! Oh and whatever infamy/fame you may receive from being on the site if it gets big :D

Talent is what they say
you have after the novel
is published and favorably
reviewed. Beforehand what
you have is a tedious
delusion, a hobby like knitting.

Work is what you have done
after the play is produced
and the audience claps.
Before that friends keep asking
when you are planning to go
out and get a job.

Genius is what they know you
had after the third volume
of remarkable poems. Earlier
they accuse you of withdrawing,
ask why you don't have a baby,
call you a bum.

The reason people want M.F.A.'s,
take workshops with fancy names
when all you can really
learn is a few techniques,
typing instructions and some-
body else's mannerisms

is that every artist lacks
a license to hang on the wall
like your optician, your vet
proving you may be a clumsy sadist
whose fillings fall into the stew
but you're certified a dentist.

The real writer is one
who really writes. Talent
is an invention like phlogiston
after the fact of fire.
Work is its own cure. You have to
like it better than being loved.

Has anyone ever ordered those cheapie business cards from Vista Print before? Just wondering what the cardstock/printing quality is like.

5/20/08 12:44 pm - Opinions plz!

Ladies, do you prefer spaghetti strap tank tops or wifebeater style tank tops? Guys, what style do you prefer to see on a gal?

BTW I will be posting stuff like this more often (and posting more in general) so feel free to remove me from your f-list if it's getting annoying hehe.

'Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on something, favorite type of underwear, explain an interest, whatever.

Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other'

If you could get on a plane and go absolutely anywhere in the world right now, where would you go and why?

3/18/08 08:52 pm - New hair

Alright alright here's a picture to show off the new colour/cut I got.

Not a very glamourous photo but it gives you an idea of what I had done.



And no I couldn't be buggered to set up my lights or even use my "real" camera haha.

3/13/08 07:05 pm - WUT



This just broke my brain. SO AWESOME. LOLRUS indeed.

Thanks [info]dev_null!

2/20/08 10:50 pm - Random late night photo

Want to hazard a guess as to what it is?

11/26/07 09:26 pm - Make me laugh darnit!

I wanna hear your favourite jokes! Let loose!

10/21/07 09:55 pm - OMG YES

The force will be strong with almost 800 people!

7/21/07 01:25 am - Bon Jovi - Living on a Prayer


This is so for [info]bmonkey13... and maybe a little for [info]illicit though he'd never admit to it ;)

7/19/07 03:25 pm - Nudes plz

I'm looking for more volunteers to help me out for an upcoming gallery show. I want to do more tasteful female nudes. They can be completely anonymous and will look something like these (NSFW). I'm hoping to emulate this artist's style (NSFW) as well.

I want to have a wide variety of body shapes, styles and colours so don't be afraid to step up if you don't think you fit the "norm".

I unfortunately cannot offer you payment but you'll receive a disk with the images from the shoot on them for you to use (non commercially of course).

If you're interested please comment here with an email address. All comments are screened. Feel free to mention this to any interested friends as well!

**Edit: I'm also interested in shooting couples who would like to pose in intimate positions. Not porn, just sensual imagery**

7/13/07 09:29 am - MST3K Best of Vol. 1


It starts off slow but holy hell, this is some of the funniest compilations I've seen in a while. Especially Big McLargeHuge.

7/8/07 04:58 pm - Amy Winehouse - Help Yourself


I'm currently in love with this track. I just love the sound of it. They really could have used a better picture of her for this though hah.

So everyone is informed and on the same page.
