(no subject)

Sometimes I wonder why I bother writing in my journal at all. It seems like no one is reading it anymore, so what's the point?

No, that's probably just me being selfish and craving more attention, with a bit of worry that my friends don't like what I have to say anymore thrown in. I guess I'm just being paranoid. Bah. Nevermind, back to our orginally scheduled programming... :)


I'm re-learning the piano, hurrah! I took lessons when I was younger, and got up to Grade 5 (which is pretty good, thank you very much), but quit when I was 12 because I couldn't be bothered to practice anymore. Now, of course, I wish I hadn't been so lazy and continued my lessons, so I could actually play with grace and ease, instead of floundering around the scales like I am now. I'm not terrible, but I'm certainly nowhere near as good as I once was. ashfae has seen me stumble around the keys, and I think she probably laughed (quietly, and with affection ;-) at my rather futile attempts to play. But no more shall I be useless! I intend to make some extra money giving singing lessons, so I had better know my way around the piano a damn sight better than I do now. Wish me luck! :)


I read the most amazing thing in the paper this morning -- a 12 year old boy saved the life of his brother by pushing him out of the way of a falling tree during the massive wind storms we had in the UK this weekend. He was crushed by the tree, but his 16 year old brother survived with only minor bruises. Absolutely unbelievable. My faith in the goodness of humanity has been restored. :)


I hate the new Two Towers poster. Ugh. I like the continuity of the muted colour scheme, but everyone looks horrible in it, and there's NO PIPPIN! Where has my baby gone?! Have they decided to cut him out of the film and not told anyone yet? *shudders at the thought* Oh, and XenArwen must burn. Buuuurn.


New friends are such wonderful things, aren't they? Please say hello to fellow not-quite-Londoner o0hugsnkisses0o! Whooot!


Finally found what seems to be a decent Harry Potter community on LiveJournal -- thanks caersidi for pointing me towards sane_potter. *hugs*


I was thinking I should start my own community, but for what? I so many interests and silly things that I'm passionate about, so where to begin? Any suggestions? :)


*yawn* I am now a sleepy Nevvie, so I shall bid you all a fond goodnight. Goodnight! :)

Sit in the chair and be good now...and become all that they told you...

Well, I'm back, after having made a thoroughly ridiculous ARSE of myself last night. *laughs*

Thanks so much for putting up with me, I know I can be a bit selfish and insecure sometimes, but let's not forget that I am an actress, and therefore my existance is only validated by the adoration of others. *grins*

At least you know that my rampant self pity doesn't last very long, and I'm nearly always back to my normal cheerful self right away. :)


ashfae, lady_aquila and ezzyangel, I made you some icons, I hope you approve. *G*

Had the most delightful ride home on the train tonight -- sat next to a monkey-faced man playing godawful nu-metal rubbish at ear-splitting decibels -- rarely as has anyone wished so hard they were deaf. Standing next to me in the crowded carriage was another incredible rude specimen of manhood, who was eating crisps, most of which obviously never made it to his mouth because they kept falling down on me, on my book, in my hair, all over the place. I kept looking up and glaring at him, but he kept munching away, like a human cow oblivious to anything except his food. And of course it's raining, so the walk home wasn't fun at all either. Got in soaking wet and not at all pleased. But then I had some chocolate and felt much better. *grins impishly*


OMG I just remembered that I still don't have Tori's new album! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! *runs around in frantic circles*


Had an amusing time singing in rehearsal today -- my voice is still pretty rubbish from being ill, and I can't sing high at all, but the lower notes are fine, and I *did* hit a low B flat for the first time ever, go me! Maybe I'm turning into a Baritone. *giggles*







You prolly like vampires cause you roleplay as one alot, and you secretly
wish the local club had more room for you to play magic. It's all good
though, at least you're vaguely intelligent and are well prepared to battle
any orc should they come into existance with your uber-g33kness and your
stompy boots!

What kind of goth are you?

HEY, where's the PERKYGOTH answer? That's me! Although this does sound pretty cool too. Except of course I am not vaguely intelligent, but unbelievably clever and brilliant. So there. ;-)

This test made me nostalgic for RPGs, I haven't played in such a long time. Anyone care to play D&D or Vampire with me? *grins*
