Lowell House, on the Feast of St. Enda

The weird part about doing systems biology assignments is that I moan and groan about it, but once I get started, it's actually quite engrossing. But I'm stuck on a problem at the moment, so I'm going to be a lemming and take a breather to post a meme (which [livejournal.com profile] ladydaera, [livejournal.com profile] schwimmerin and [livejournal.com profile] klio911 have all done, so why not jump on the bandwagon).

1. Elaborate on your default icon.
Features a scene from Ravages of Time, the manhua series by Chan Mou based on The Three Kingdoms. The two faces are Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, the characters translate to "Sleeping Dragon", the quote as a whole is what Sima Yi says to Kongming at the end of one of the early chapters.

2. What's your current relationship status?
Daughter to two parents, roommate to Nan, blockmate-across-the-hall to Daera and Schwimmerin, friend to all of you (I hope)...okay, I'll stop being glib but the answer should be obvious.

3. What exactly are you wearing right now?
Sweater, turtleneck, pants, socks, sneakers, glasses, etc.

4. What is your current problem?
Horrible sleep cycle, poor time management, too many exams to study for in the next week and a half.

5. Whom do you love most?
My parents.

6. What makes you most happy?
Reading fiction.

7. Are you musically inclined?
I suppose, yes.

8. If you could go back in time and change something, what would it be?
Taken a Core this semester instead of OEB 125.

9. Ever have a near-death experience?
No.

10. Name an obvious quality you have?
I don't know what qualifies as obvious.

11. What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
"La vie en rose" because that's the last track on the Nodame Cantabile FST (another must-download!).

12. Any celeb you would marry?
Nope. But celebrity flavor-of-the-month over here is 이준기 (see current icon).

13. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
I don't know. I do know people born the day before me and after me though.

14. Do you have a crush on someone?
I think I've already talked about it ad nauseum.

15. Have you ever vandalized someone's private property?
Uh, no.

16. Have you ever been in a fight?
Yes, in elementary school. I also kicked quite a few people in seventh and eighth grade.

17. Have you ever sung in front of a large audience?
Yes. Largest audience would probably be at the singing competition that my mother somehow convinced me to go to in first grade. Actually I didn't even realize it was a competition until the award ceremony.

18. What's the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
That they're the opposite sex? Otherwise it's the same things I notice first about any human being.

19. What do you usually order from Starbucks?
The two times I've bought anything from Starbucks, I think I got the caramel apple cider.

20. Have you ever hurt yourself on purpose?
Not beyond biting my tongue while receiving vaccinations.

I wear glasses.

22. Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?
Once.

23. Do you wear a watch?
Yes.

No.

26. Do you like pain?
No.

27. Do you like to shop?
No.

Greyhound tickets.

30. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?
My mother.

31. What is on your desktop background?
Photo of the set from 왕의 남자.

32. Do you like redheads?
Not particularly more or less than I like any other hair color. O_O

33. What is the background on your cell phone?
Photo of the bear that Schwimmerin got me for Christmas. Because I decided one day that my cell phone wallpaper should feature something uncharacteristically cute and fuzzy.

34. Do you know any twins?
Um...does [livejournal.com profile] lazulisong count? ^_^

35. Do you have any weird relatives?
Depends on your definition of weird.

Pas de tout.

40. Where do you see yourself in five years?
Graduate school, working in lab.

For the 이준기 (Lee Junki) fans on my friends list, [livejournal.com profile] angelyrique just told me that he has a cyworld. How trendy of him. (Your browser will need to enable pop-ups.) Click on the third tab from the top to browse through the photo album.

Oh yes, and as mentioned before, [livejournal.com profile] team7 posted a beautiful Nodame Cantabile FST here.

Yours &c.

Post-script: Anyone know where one can obtain volumes 18+ for 20th Century Boys?

Try #lurk (http://gotlurk.net/) -- looks like they have up to volume 20.

I know a lot of people dislike using IRC (I loathe it), but #lurk makes it pretty easy since they provide the pack numbers and everything on their website. They also have all the Ravages volumes/chapters up too. :P

That cyworld link doesn't work for me. :(

Oh the packlists are perfect, thanks so much for this link!

Er, yeah, Cyworld is a bit fussy. It opens best in IE 6+ with the pop-up blocker disabled. I've gotten it to work in Firefox but you have to go in and change various settings to make the site work. Here's the URL: www.cyworld.com/start006

Welcome. :D

I got Cyworld to work finally. I didn't know how to disable the pop-up blocker, so I ended up having to open and reopen that page and try to enable the pop-up as quickly as possible. >_> It took me a while, but I finally got it.

I checked out the gallery -- what I could anyway, I could make heads or tails of the layout -- and saw some pretty nice pictures. LJK is too pretty. Looking at him makes me feel inferior. >_<

I looked at his profile too. If I got the conversion right, he's about the same height and weight as me. O_O

Yay for being a lemming!

...XD
Sorry, I was just thinking: The Irony, why in the world is she talking about events so far in the past when she's kicking ass in practice at least 3 times a week.

Heh, well, "But kendo is all about peace not--" okay, I'll stop mocking senpaitachi now.

Ganbarimasu~! FAITO HAABAADO! XD (By the way, I just noticed you're friends with [livejournal.com profile] assyrian, who is a well-known name in Hikago circles and realized that I had probably stumbled across your LJ months and months--before I even knew it was you--when she linked to your Tezuka fanart. Such a small world! Particularly when it comes to animanga fandom. ^_^)
