[neverwhere]

As I look out my window I can see that it is another gorgeous day at the beach. So why the hell am I inside wasting my life online? Oh wait, I have no life. That would be why. *chuckles* (Anyone have a spare life I can borrow?)

The One Party tickets go on sale tomorrow. Ohgodohgodohgod I really, desperately want to go, and now that I'm in L.A there's nothing to stop me, right? Nothing except the $125 I need to purchase a ticket. WHINGE! I've been dreaming about going for 2 years, how can I not go? Is anyone else here going? I know trianne wants to, but doesn't know yet if she can. I want to attend so badly, but I suppose if I don't know anyone there wouldn't be much point. I don't mingle and make friends easily (or at all) in social gatherings, so I may just end up feeling sorry for myself that I couldn't manage to have a good time even at such a momentous occasion. Yeah, I'm stupid that way.
I just don't know what to do.


On a more pleasant note -- thanks to the generosity of swankyfunk, I have a ticket to see Graham Norton this weekend! Woooohoooo! Aaaaaaand I'm allowed to bring a guest. Anyone in the L.A/O.C area like Graham and want to come to Hollywood with me on sunday? I adore Graham Norton, even though I know someone who shagged him in a Disco and said it was just 'okay'. *snort* ;-)


I don't think I've squeed yet about my TT:EE dvd, so here it is, short and sweet: OMGILOVEFLOATSAMANDJETSOMANDWHEEEEMOREELVISHANDMORELOTRGOODNESSHURRAH!

And I'm spent.

If I had the ability to get to LA for it, I'd go -- $125 ticket and all. But since they moved the Oscars this year, it's while I have school and not over spring break, so even if I had the money to get to LA I wouldn't have the time. Which is POOPY. If I had gotten into UCLA or USC you can bet your socks that I'd be there. :(

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*curses UCLA for not accepting the fabulousness that is you* :(

[swankyfunk.livejournal.com]

Graham was just "okay"? FEH!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Hehehe I think Ian was just making it good gossip. Not that shagging a celebrity in a disco toliet isn't good gossip, mind. *giggles*

Love for the pretty Tori icon.

You know someone everywhere who knows everyone else, my god! How do you do it? Have you ever considered getting a career knowing people something along the lines of an agent? You certainly seem to have a knack for making connections!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*laughs*

It's so odd that I do have such amazing connections online, because I can't connect with people at all in the 'real' world. At least, not in groups, one-on-one I'm fine.

I could never be an agent, because you need great social skills and charisma, both of which I am sadly lacking. I do know a few agents, including the head of Brillstein/Grey entertainment, because I went to boarding school with his delinquent son. *grins*

You're welcome to my life. I probably wouldn't miss it, or even notice that it had gone.

I enjoy you having your life just where it is. I can sitll live vicariously through you, if you like. ;-)

Woo for Graham Norton recording in LA (and swankyfunk being so cool), I've always assumed he'd be a rubbish shag though:P I'll be looking for you in the audience if it's shown over here :D

Squee at TT:EE too! Tis the awesome-est-est. It seems daft that they left out some of those scenes, you learn so much from them.

*squifflehugs*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I assume it'll be shown in the UK, as the New York ones were. Look for meeee! (Although I probably won't be standing up and telling desperately filthy secrets to the world. Definitely not. Sorry to disappoint you. ;-)

There are so many scenes in TT:EE that explain things so much better, especially where the hell that damn horse came from. *laughs* (He falls, he nearly drowns, he gets saved by Arwen kissing him turning into a strange horse -- buhhh?)
And of course, who can deny the brilliance of ENTDRAUGHTS and apples not quite falling from the sky! Oh how I adore them. *squee* :D

*squish!*

*hugs you* Hey thought i'd drop a line saying hi Nevvie as its been to long thought not sure if you'll get this considering the huge amount of comments you have to your posts usually i'm never sure if you get them :/

Anyway glad to see your doing ok hope you get to go to the Party.

Met a really cool Fur called Otana over here in England who has just returned from staying with her mate for the past 3 months while in LA you'd love her to bits she is such a great lass :) Otana and Manawolf is the couple and hoefully Otana will be returning to LA next year and then you can have your very own imported London Fur to chat with about the good old times in London :)

Anyway i should let you get on with stuff and speak to you soon

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*cuddles her skunkyboy*

I read every single comment I receive! That's why I love them, I enjoy so much reading what people have to say (especially when it's about me ;-).

Ooooh new people to talk to are always welcome. Wheeee. :)

'Get on with stuff'? What stuff would that be? I have completely wasted the day and am still in my PJs. There is no stuff to be done. *giggles*

[soupytwist.livejournal.com]

I agree with the wise person above. I'm wishing you all the self-esteem vibes in the world. *hugs*

Also: DUDE, you know someone who shagged Graham? LOL. I can believe he was a bit crap though, especially as drunken experiences in toilets would, I suspect, tend not to be on the amazingly memorable side.

I think you should make up some really ridiculous story and tell it in the audience stand-up thing. :D (if it's weird enough it probably won't even matter if it's not disgusting. :))

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

My friend Ian at the London Academy of Performing Arts had a very drunken toliet shagging experience with Graham. Although apparently it was Graham who was the most wasted. *smirks*

I have been considering whether or not I could pull off a made up story, and so far my conclusion is no. *laughs*
Weird, on the otherhand...methinks that I can do. ;-)

[myf.livejournal.com]

I utterly refuse to believe you have no social skills. What rot. You're funny and lovely and generous (and cute as) and if people in RL can't see that then they're nobs. So there.

I still haven't seen TTT EE, but am scheduled to watch BOTH the EEs this weekend. Argh for not being able to blink the next day, say I.

If I were anywhere near your neck of the woods, I'd definitely hang out with you and laugh at crappy-shagger Norton. *thinks* That'd look good on a t-shirt.

Graham Norton: Crap Shagger 2003

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Everyone around me are gobshiting nobs. Tis true.

My social life online is vibrant and full of love, and offline...utterly non-existant. Huzzah. *sighs wearily*

But anyway.

I don't know how I'm going to survive Trilogy Tuesday, watching both EE's and nearly 4 hours of ROTK inna row. It'll be breathtaking...as long as I'll be able to focus on the film through the neck pain and bladder control...;-)

I wish you were near me! I have such brilliant friends in Oz, I really should come and visit you all. Care to pay for my plane ticket? Don't worry, I won't need first class. Buisness'll do fine. *grins*

[airemay.livejournal.com]

*baps you* Just go outside once. Take a walk, listen to music, watch the ocean, etc. The ocean is very loffy and you are so lucky to be close to it.

We must do something for Christmas. OHOHOH!!! What are you doing Friday or Saturday? Come see my show! *nods*

<3!!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I know I should have gone outside. But my jammies are so comfy...*giggles*

I think my sister is coming to visit on friday and saturday, and I'll probably be expected to be with her. Oy. (Saturday I know my dad is taking us out on his boat to watch the Harbour Parade. I don't know about friday.)

And YES, we must do the crimbo thing. What shall it be?

[fringelement.livejournal.com]

I love the Tolkien Ensemble's Song of Eldamar...I once sang it at karaoke when the music-computer broke, hee.

I'd love to go to the One Party so very much...but school.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I've been wanting to sing TE compositions for auditions, but unfortuntely operatic Tolkien is never appropriate for anything I'm suited for. *giggles*

[meretia]

That was sort of the same train of thought I had when I thought that I wasn't going to get to see Andy Serkis in Chicago. "Oh... well, I'll go to the One Party instead. It's--ye gods! How much? Ech, I don't know anyone there anyway. And wait a minute, I hate parties, so why do I even want to go?"

But really, I have to agree with Ashfae. You're selling yourself short. You don't need to worry about trying to be cool or impress anyone. I think I can reasonably assume that you don't do that in your own journal, and look at all the people who think that you're so special. To be completely honest, it bugs me a little to hear you undervaluing yourself so much. You're not a failure, or stupid, or a worthless person, or anything like that. The people who say things like that are the ones who benefit from tearing you down and making you doubt yourself. Don't listen to them. Don't believe them. I really, truly, believe that if you went out and met some people and just behaved naturally, they'd like you just as much as all of us do here. You're a lovely, loving, and lovable person. The only reason you wouldn't have charisma is if you kept it in because you didn't think you had it. Honestly, the words that are on the tip of my tongue to describe you are things like "cool" and "sparkly" and "sweet." Those aren't things I associate with someone who isn't appealing.

And you needn't punish yourself for not being perfect. If it seems like a nice day to go to the beach, and you want to go to the beach, then go to the beach. Even if you don't meet anyone there or find anybody to go with, you'd have had the sun and the surf and all to enjoy. You don't have to sit inside online all day unless you really want to.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I actually love the beach, I just don't enjoy going (you're not going to approve of this ;-) because I'm afraid of what people will say when they see a fat seacow on the sand. *hides*
Actually, I don't go out very much at all because I'm afraid of what people might say. I know I'm overreacting, but it's not without reason -- even recently I've been ridiculed just for walking down the street. So I'm not completely irrational. Just a little bit. :)

I'm mostly myself at work, and they all think I'm a bumbling weirdo. *G* (But then, the people I work with are all 6-7 years younger than me (bloody teenagers!), so what do they know. ;-)

I know it seems like I'm undervalueing myself, and perhaps I am (okay okay, I know I am), it's just so difficult to take the ego-gratifying friendship I have online and translate it into self-esteem in the cruel 'real' world. I know I'm fun and appealing, and have so much to offer if only people would notice, but the problem is they never notice. I try not to let it get me down, but sometimes I just can't. Honestly, if I didn't have my online friends, I'd be depressed beyond measure. Thank god for you. :)

...Are you sure you can't come to The One Party? *grins*

[bygonepie]

"and i'm spent." *giggle*

when you going on sunday???? i get off of work at 3:30; that's probably too late, hunh.

i wish i could go to the one party, but that's way too much money for me as of now. i know that carly wants to go as well...

:)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I'll probably be leaving around 4pm-ish, as you're allowed to join the queue at 5.30pm. Do you want to come? I'd LOVE to have some company. Tell me what you want to do and I'll rsvp requesting an extra ticket. I might be able to get two more, so if Carly can come that'd be brilliant too.

Wooohooo! :D
