neil gaiman!
... was UNREAL.
unexpected.
and AMAZING.
(thanks gecko! :DDDD for bestowing this once-in-a-lifetime chance upon me XD)
even though i can't call myself a true fan (i haven't read a lot of his stuff and don't own anything that is signable >< not like gecko ... after yesterday, and i'm also FAIL because I FORGOT TO BRING THE CAMERA T.T), neil gaiman is so cool!
everything he says comes out with style and is genuinely funny. and worthy to be put in a book or quoted and framed.
(NEIL GAIMAN at the signing session. sorry about the picture quality, i'm waiting for better photos.)
it felt really weird and surreal to sit there and see him, and think about his books. (somewhere in the recesses of my brain i was going nuts and going "is this really neil gaiman! it's really neil gaiman! omfgomfgomfgomfg!" and such.)
maybe it was surreal because it was so up close and ... down-to-earth and everything.
(remember may'n? =.=) he was just there and there were no mobs and at the signing his girlfriend was wandering around unharassed. so it was a very new experience to just run round the back to get a photo.
it was inspirational, though i don't exactly know how. but i enjoyed every single minute in vt!
(and i liked the crowd, it was a very civilised crowd.)
the signing queue was SO LONG (and misshalle was in it (!)) so i kind of gave up. 900 people! 2 hours for every 200! and i'd feel bad because people were toting their good omens and sandman around. but AHHH THE CHANCE SLIPPED THROUGH MY FINGERS TODAY! T.T
anyway this has made me determined to hunt down every single neil gaiman book in the libraries. (it's quite difficult, i've been trying for a long time.)
... everything i've said above does not do today justice.
i hope he comes back to singapore! and i hope such things happen more often. writers are such great people.
--
by the way gecko got this for me. (and alot of class people too.) go see her post with the bit about the Poetry Proletariat Factory. this was from the word "jelly".
i like it a lot. the theme is interesting.
well, i actually understand it, for one. after experience with a lot of confusing and abstract poems in school.
i like poems with interesting spacing, for another. (haha i'm not a very literary person.)
poems should be used to delight and inspire, not to torture kids in school. /: that's how people lose interest in poems in the first place.

supercalifragilisticexpialidocioushappycny!☆
high and crazy day!
first, cny celebrations.
which were quite lame (i missed half of it anyway.)
council really put in a lot of effort to do the thing, though.
do not ever wear the 90th tee with jeans as it is damn ... gross.
also, as we love school too much, half the class turned up in full school uniform with school badge included.
ate nuggets and nachos with HOT CHEESE (thanks, siyuan!) and got coerced into eating jelly. right.
(我欠钱欠过年:P)
then we lao yu sheng and made a mess out of the whole school! (and many salmons were sacrificed in the process)
the last event was mass dance which we all promptly escaped from. and we went back to ny to look for teachers.
ms tan wasn't there so we left a note.
and i finally saw ms olivia chee's desk properly! which has TONS OF GUNPLA IN A ROW AND MANY MANY POSTERS. like saiyuki. XD and a mini ichigo figurine.
shouldn't have walked past so fast last time. but then at that time i didn't watch gundam yet.
ms lye still told me the name of the teacher is a "well-kept secret". tsk.
then we missed one 961. and went to causeway with xy to go look for her bag. (insane's sis came)
and we did a lot of crazy things at the shopping centre. and took photos in public that you all should never ever take in public.
after i shop the pics i will put here!
after xy bought her bag ($21) we went to the library AND I FOUND FOOL MOON AND DEAD BEAT! insane borrowed 3 harry dresden books, ha. so now i have these two plus proven guilty to last me over new year's eve when i go and park myself at my ahma's house.
and the library extended the 8-book loan thing! yay.
(and you can't take pictures in the library)
neoprints didn't happen. anyway i had no money. came to school with less than $1 total in both my wallets.
slept on the train. really.
WE FORMULATED A LOT OF CRAZY THEORIES AND STUFF TODAY.(OH MY GOD I WENT HOME JUST NOW AND THE T-SHIRT SHOP NEAR MY BUS IS SELLING DEATHNOTE T-SHIRTS. AT 3 FOR $20. BUT THE CUT SUCKS. I WANT THEM TO PRINT IT ON BIG BAGGY T-SHIRTS. ToT)
and the dragonball movie sucks, omg.

kenna geass-ed!
got commanded to do this!
again!:D
this one's more fun than the last one.
watch out, it's gonna be screwed! (and i can't write properly)
Fandom Meme!List twelve characters without looking at the questions. Then answer the questions by replacing the corresponding number with the character.
1. lavi (d.gray-man)
2. hitsugaya (bleach)
3. thomas raith (from the dresden files, this is a temporary bias, haha)
4. the kishin (soul eater)
5. shinku (code geass)
6. nyanko-sensei (natsume yuujin chou)
7. the doll guy (kuroshitsuji)
8. tieria (gundam 00)
9. brera (macross frontier)
10. iorek byrnison (his dark materials)
11. nishijou takumi (chaos;head)
12. LULU (code geass, because he geassed me into doing this, right.)
12 people is A LOT.
possible spoilers for the series above!
1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11?
definitely nyanko because he is already a sensei. i think takku would just freak out/ stone at his students in the lecture hall before hallucinating and running off. maybe only when he's in di-sword mode? but nyanko will throw tantrums at his students from time to time and call them idiots and demand for better treatment.
2. Do you think 4 is hot? How hot?
very very absolutely. :D but he looks disgusting with his bandages on. when he shows his face and his hair and his scarf-like skin/ bandages are flying around he's VERY HOT.
3. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
HAHA lulu will probably send tieria on a take-over-the-world/ kill-everyone-in-my-way/ kick-those-irritating-royalty-siblings-of-mine's-asses mission! and it 100% succeeds because VEDA DOES NOT ALLOW MISTAKES. seravee is enough to take down a whole britannian army, plus tchan is always geassulated behind layers and layers of screens and suits and helmets and such.
4. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
brera's favourite book is "harmonica for dummies". or "how to beat the crap out of the guy who is two-timing your sister". or maybe "vogue". because his clothes are O.o. or the macross score book for harmonica!
5. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
nyanko will swear fealty to hitsu when he's nyanko. but if he's madara then maybe it will be the other way round. (madara and hyourinmaru look alike! O:)
6. For some reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should s/he share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
ooo brera and iorek are both hard to live with. hmm. shinku chooses brera because iorek, being a polar armoured bear, is bigger than the studio apartment. no space no space!
7. 2, 7 and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
hitsu, the doll guy and lulu go to pizza hut! (because hitsu is technically dead and the doll guy doesn't need food.) lulu will try to rope in the other two into his brilliant plans, and hitsu will be irritated and scowl at him (and threaten him with hyourinmaru), while the doll guy daos both of them and sings "london bridge is falling down". then lulu will give up and geass both of them while he eats his pizza.
8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
oh my! interesting. thomas vs iorek = brute force vs agility. but i think iorek will win because he's not stupid and bullets/ knives/ most things don't penetrate his armour, and thomas will get pwned because his vampire powers don't work on bears. unless he runs away fast enough. but thomas seems to have experience in dealing with big bad ferocious stuff so maybe it'll be a draw.
9. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would s/he (<-- haha) get it back?
lavi would be in DEEEEEEEEEP trouble if he stole tieria's stuff. serious. because tchan will throw a hissy fit and come demanding after his stolen possesions and use his veda powers to find him and blow him up with seravee's trans-am cannonball! thing. and poor lavi only has his hammer. oh unless lavi steals seravee! (it's a precious possesion :D) but lavi probably stole his glasses or his pink cardigan.
10. Suggest a title for a story in which 6 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
huh. O.o nyanko wants the yuujinchou while lulu wants ... world peace. XD so it'll be called ... "the adventures of lulu and nyanko"! i'm so sorry, i'm very bad at this kind of thing.
11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
what's a plot device? lavi and kishin ... only way for them to work together is if the kishin possesses lavi/ controls him and takes over his mind, because the kishin is omnipotent and lavi - well, he only has his hammer. and lavi'd probably be too freaked out in the first place.
12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
ooooo. the doll guy would probably enter uninvited and attempt to add me to his doll collection. then i'll slash him in the chest (important: not head!) and take a picture with him and then run away.
13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
wow. wash my hair offer me protection from the citizens of nevernever?
14. What would 11 bring to a deserted island, if s/he could only bring one thing?
HIS COMPUTER, though sadly it's probably changed to rimi. he can gigolomaniac-hallucinate anything else he wants there, anyway.
15. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
hitsu will choose shinku over the kishin. because they have similar personalities and everything. and they're nice people, really. :D only the witches will side with kishin. oh, but that means they'll totally lose because the kishin is unfairly strong.
16. What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
i forgot iorek's battle lines. probably he'd roar (a bear's roar). off with iofur's head!
17. If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
tchan hahaha! "elephant"? because it has such a spastic name. and an elephant's purplish, like tchan's hair. (okay lah i haven't heard it)
18. 1, 4 and 6 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
i'm chinese and i don't know what's a scallion pancake. but lavi gets it all the same, because nyanko would lose when lavi pokes him with the end of his hammer. and the kishin probably doesn't think of the scallion pancake as food. (he prefers people)
19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
... this relationship will never work out. besides, iorek wouldn't understand any pick-up lines of hitsu's because they speak different languages anyway. >< WEIIIIRD.20. What would 3 most likely be arrested for?
thomas ... many many things. arrested on multiple charges. basically, most things he does is outside the human law. and some things outside the supernatural law. but he'll never get caught! :D because he's thomas!
21. What is 6's secret?
nyanko likes fish and yummy stuff and getting patted more than he would admit.
22. If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
brera will win takku! because brera can space-warp and everything. and he has a spaceship. takku only can run around, even if he has his di-sword. (hey they would probably race to save their sisters! :D)
23. 3 and 7 tell conflicting versions of events. Which is more reliable?
thomas and the doll guy ... thomas barh. if i'm harry, it would be thomas. if i'm me, i would trust myself. wouldn't believe the doll guy for a million dollars, he's too suspicious. hell, i don't even know his name!
24. "1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4’s sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that 11 is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12, in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3, who gives them what they need to complete their quest." What title would you give this fic?
*head spins*
let's substitute.
"lavi and brera reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by the kishin’s sinister secret organization. (oh yeah!) takku volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that takku is actually a spy for the kishin. (i can imagine what the kishin did) meanwhile, the kishin has kidnapped lulu (O:), in an attempt to force their surrender. (awww geass doesn't work!) following the wise advice of shinku, they seek out thomas, who gives them what they need to complete their quest! (of course!)"
wow not bad! good cast!
but given my complete inability to make up creative good titles, it shall be titled "LAVI AND BRERA: The Curse of the Omnipotent Kishin".
too bad. XD
25. If you had to walk home through a bad neighbourhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 12?
lulu over the doll guy. the doll guy belongs to these bad neighbourhoods. his shop is in the same kind of place. if he walked me home he'd abduct me in the middle of the street. at least lulu can geass away the bad guys, though suzaku would be 10 times more efficient. ;D
well!
that was fun!
i hope it gave you the lulz, gecko! :D
(it's totally made for fanfic writers and the like)
look forward to more crazy memes and suchlike!

i'm so sorry lavi and hitsugaya and t-chan!

4)the Earl of Millenium aka 千年伯爵
5)Charles vi Britannia aka CHARLULU
2.If no.2 & no.3 were together, what will happen?
ooo they will definitely fight each other because ulquiorra doesn't like most kids and pride doesn't like people who are cooler than him and don't submit to his tactics! then ulquiorra will cero pride and pride will absorb it with his all-encompassing shadow and it will never end.

he is a psycho little boyboy homunculus and he is super cool when he goes into pride mode! :D his shadow moves on its own to kill people/ psycho people into doing things/ possess people etc. and he doesn't work in the dark. his fake father is badass and has a moustache, while his real father looks like someone else's father. in short, HE IS ONE SCREWED UP LITTLE KID.
6.Who is no.2?
HE IS THE COOLEST ARRANCAR EVER TO WALK
THIS EARTH HUECO MUNDO. he wears a mask, has a hole through his neck, has super sexy eyes and only has one expression. he has a katana but his cero is enough to pwn most of the time.
7.Talk about no.5.
he is the reason why we cannot talk about charles' law without breaking into fits of laughter. the pronunciation of his name is super gay. and he always seems to have a hidden microphone and amplifier around him when he talks. he also has geass, and used to rule britannia until his son came along and ruined everything for him. ha! who asked you to kick him out in the first place!
8.Who is no.1?
an innovator, and - i quote - "the new 'in' thing"! and also the gayest of 'em all.
9.Who is the sexiest person among the people?
definitely ulquiorra, no contest here.

eeeeto. pink? orange? black? nonono i think he doesn't like black, he hates the black order. maybe he likes white then? ...

yeah. i don't think he could ever manage to get hitched. besides, he would turn them into gun-baring akumas first.
12.What is your relationship with no.1?
OMG ABSOLUTELY NO RELATIONSHIP I DON'T EVER WANNA. other than watching him waltz with t-chan (O':) and acting gay on my computer screen once a week. er, i think his seiyuu is very pro.
13. Are no.1 & no.3 best friends?
hmm. could be.
14.What is no.5’s surname?
vi Britannia?
15.What is no.1’s nickname?
genderless amoeba! also could be bows, streamers, that kind of thing, you know? or just "the guy with the weird green hair".
16.What things do you wish to say to no.3?
umm ... don't stand in the shadows all the time! i want to see you using your cool powers! please kill your father! (the fake one)
17.What you will do to help no.5?
first and foremost, give him a haircut.
then give him new clothes. then teach him to tolerate liars.
18.Who does no.1 admire?
t-chan himself!
19.Where does no.1 live?
currently residing on earth in this big mansion with his fellow innovators, wang liu mei, nena trinity and ali al-saarchez. may immigrate to space soon, i don't know. but it will be a big place.

only ulquiorra shall know my love!
21.What do you wish to say when you see no.2?
omg come out of that box thing now!!! *howls* everyone is fighting and you are not around! you need to fight cooler people like hitsugaya and byakuya instead of wasting your time on ichigo! come out come out come out nowwwwwww.
以上です。
