A Farewell to Arms 2007
Wow. A lot happened to me this year. I got officially addicted to Heroes, which led me to join IMDb.com to post in the message boards for Heroes, which led me to read a steamy slash fic between Sylar and Mohinder, which led me to join livejournal, which led me to become a slasher.
I met aimisan and became best friends with her. She also likes slash, and I converted her to Plaude and Remus/Sirius.
Speaking of Remus/Sirius, the (written) saga of Harry Potter concluded this past July. I personally believe JKR got lazy towards the end, because besides the stellar chapter about Snape's life, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows wasn't that good (to me.) Lots of people died for pointless reasons, or just DIED. Dobby, Colin Creevey, Tonks, Fred, and REMUS LUPIN: WHY, JRK, WHY?! *shed actual, physical tears* Btw, Dumbledore is gay.
I saw in passing 'Utopia' a Season 3 Doctor Who episode online. I remembered all the yammering people had been doing about how Claude was the Doctor, I started to watch BBC America. I got hooked. Then I started to watch Torchwood with my gay father. I got the 'first' DW season for X-Mas. Season 3 of DW and Season 2 of Torchwood coming to BBC America in a few weeks! *SQUEE*
I read a great many good books, and have a great many started, lying about.
I got a subscription to The New Yorker for my birthday.
I was in two plays: Macbeth, and Romeo and Juliet.
After making a deal with a 'friend' who PROMISED he'd watch Heroes if I watched Lost, I proceeded to get addicted to the damn show with my relations. We are now plotting ways to rig the antenae to get the stupid show in a few weeks. THINGS MADE MORE SENSE WHEN THERE WERE POLAR BEARS RUNNING ABOUT!
I heard the Numa Numa song for the first time.
I started wearing a kimono as a robe-type-thingy.
I watched all the Seasons of Alias.
I fell in love with David Anders, Zachary Quinto, Christopher Eccleston, John Barrowman, and Josh Holloway.
I learned to make a paper crane.
I began to have actual conversations with the guy I have a major crush on (am in love with?), wore a 'sexy top' and received a WAVE from that guy!
Started wearing earrings again (cute little red skull-and-cross-bones!)
Got interested in 'popular' music because of aimisan.
Started god/Shiva/Zeus knows how many stories that I have yet to finish.
Saw quite a lot of plays and not many movies (in theaters.)
PotC ended (supposedly.)
I got hooked on the 'Twilight' books by Stephenie Meyer, began WEREWOLVES NEED HUGS (which got others to make such shirts!) and held votes as to who you'd rather be in a relationship with, werewolf or vampire.
I got addicted to manga.
I took a politics class and became insanely interested in everyone running for presidency. It's sad that a lot of my hard-won knowledge will soon become obsolete.
I know a lot of you have probably already had New Years, but here I've still got some time, so FAREWELL 2007!
WELCOME ELECTION YEAR!

I would marry John Barrowman if he wasn't you know, gay and with a long term relationship with a man. -sigh-
*sighs too* Why are all the good ones gay?
Happy new year.
To you too! I just joined the Sarmy! *dances*

Twilight was ok, but the two-hundred pages of school-drama I could have done without. New Moon is WONDERFUL because WEREWOLVES NEED HUGS! (Sorry ...) I got Eclipse for my birthday, and it's WONDERFUL!
HEROES!! XD
My thoughts exactly!
have a good one!!

OMG! SLASH!@!! MYLAR!!! *squees*
