Randomosity Is That Girl

Cause I gave oparu a prompt and I'm preparing for NaNoWriMo

The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request a drabble of ANY pairing/character of their choosing (of ANY fandom) from me (with a prompt, if it pleases you to give me one). In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level.

Have fun :)

One day, in a land not too far from here, two fangirls called Tinie and Sammi had way too much time on their hands. They decided to make a LJ community dedicated to Alison Krauss. It was to be newer and shinier than anything that had ever come before it. And so lovewhatiknow was born.

We promise to post at least once a week. Twas decided that the day would be Friday ~~(to heal the Sammi's broken heart)~~. A random squee entry with pictures or videos just so that the community doesn't meet the sad end of it's predecessor.

I have nothing of real substance to say to you.

Interview Me

1) Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me!"
2) I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3) You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
4) You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5) When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on and on...

My five questions from mizz_magenta
1. The world ends and you can only save one: Costa or Duckies? Trying to kill me with the questions! Ack ... Decisions, decisions, decisions! I'd probably save costa. Duckies I can probaly find a replacement for. My caffine fix, not so much. So yeah I'd save Costa.

2. What show has had the most impact on you? I'd say anything with strong female leads from the 90's so The X-Files, Star Trek Voyager, Next Generation. You get the jist of it. They taught me that smart women pawn :P That I am, and always will be, a sci-fi addict and that I much prefer fantasy to reality. I would get all philosophical on you but I'm not that smart :P

3. Jed Bartlett or Laura Roslin for President? As much as I love Laura Roslin as a character I can't say that her presidential terms have been the most successful, I know it was difficult circumstances and all that but there were times I questioned her political motives. Jed Bartlet would be the more sucessful President. He also has that added bonus of not dying from cancer :P

4. Would you rather give up coffee or internetz, and y? I'd give up coffee (odakota_rose don't leave me) because without the internet I would have no way to contact some of the best people in my life. Of course I'd miss coffee like woah but where as Id get used to having no coffee I would never get used to the lack of flisters in my life. I'd have no way to procrastinate, no way to download my favourite shows and I'd generally just miss having the interent.

5. You can change the storyline from any point in Atlantis, either changing some aspects of canon or changing the whole direction. From where would you change it and what would you do? Probably the disaster that is Sunday. Seriously WTF? Explosive tumors!?!? Carson dies and Elizabeth goes on a date with someone that isn't John ... yeah I don't think so. For a start I would keep Carson alive and find a better plot device than exploding tumors. So of cousre this would change how season 3 ends. Elizabeth is still alive in season 4 and the storylines would not totally suck. I'd also have made more use of characters like Cadman, Zelenka, Chuck and Kate purely cause they would add a little fun into the mix. Elizabeth would get to use her degree. I mean she's a world renound diplomat she should get to go offworld and do something that doesn't involve her sitting behind a desk!

claraon asked me.
1. Chocolate or the internet? (having one means you give up the other entirely) Ok so pretty much the same answer as coffee or the internet *points up*
2. Where do you see yourself in a year from now? Hopefully somewhere more exciting than here with a job that I love (one that I can tolerate would be perfectly fine too).It'll most likely be Canada or maybe even somewhere else in Europe, who knows.
3. What is the thing you are more looking forward to? At teh moment Im most looking forward to AT4 in November. I love London, I love meeting flisters and meeting Amanda Tapping at the same time? TOTAL BOUNS! It'll be awesome. Me, twisted_angel5 and room parties ;) Can it be November now please?
4. Torri Higginson or Mary McDonnell? That was a tough decision to make. Both women can rock a scarf so they both own my soul and they are both enviously gorgeous. My love for Torri bought me to some of the best friends I'll ever know (which can be said for Mary too but just not as intense) but when it comes down to talent and general awesomeness Mary completely wipes the floor with EVERYBODY YO!
5. The one skill you would like to acquire. The ability to deal with large social situations. There;s something about being in a room with more than 10 people I don't know that completely scares the hell out of me. So yes, would like that fixed :D

Handwirting Meme

1. Write your LJ username
2. Write your two favorite bands/groups at the moment (not overall, just currently)
3. Write either I ♥ k-pop ; I ♥ j-pop ; I ♥ c-pop (this isn't really for anything, just to see how you draw hearts xD)
4. Write the name of your favorite person of all time (e.g. Yamada Ryosuke)
5. Write down your recently favored person (e.g. G-Dragon)
6. Tag 5 people to do this meme.

I tagged 6 cause apparently I can't read!

YOU GUYS!

I think I may need to get a life ...

What happens in Bristol ...

Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:16:47 GMT

What follows is as much as twisted_angel5 and I can remember from our visit down to Bristol to see rory_elizabeth. You have been warned, it is extremely long!

06.00: Sammi gets up (cause she's stupid obviously)
07.30: Julie (aka Sammi's mom) takes her to the train station and she gets there 1 hour before her actual train
07.40: Tracey gets up, takes her antibiotics and starts getting ready. Zomg!!
08.30: Sammi gets on an earlier train cause it's too cold and shes a woos! Figures Bristol Temple Meads has better facilities and it would be easier to wait for Jamie there instead
08:40: Tracey is on her bus and there is gridlock traffic and she thinks, shit. She gets off to get the train into Birmingham New street but her local trains are all delayed *fuck*. Network rail sucks!!!
09.10: I'm in Bristol Baby! Time for the first coffee of the day and to look like a loner while I wait for Jaime
09.40: Tracey gets her train because before 9.30 in Birmingham, it is shit expensive. Again, network rail sucks!!! FYI: Tracey does NOT like Rush Hour (not the movie :P). Rush Hour is evil!!!!
10.00: Jamie meets Sammi a little earlier than planned because she panicked after receiving Sammi's "I'm getting in an hour earlier" text. Big squishy hugs followed because OMG it's Jamie and we haven't seen each other since January!
10.05: Sammi and Jamie find a Starbucks (after I ditch my traitorous TrainStation!Coffee) and proceed to order lots of coffee!
11.05: After lots of talking about Jamie's England experience so far, Sarah Palin and present opening we decide to go look out for Tracey's train.
11.05: Tracey FINALLY gets into Bristol baby! She goes to WHSmiths because she needs some water.
11.06: Sammi is distracted by books in WHSmith's
11.09: We finish loking at books in WHSmith's and go look for Tracey
11.10: Sammi and Jamie were standing at the ticket barrier where I pounce behind them because I had already got out *lol*. Cue for a HUGE Jamie!squish!hug as soon as I said hi because HAI, not seen each other since Peg3 in January. Then I get more huge squishy hugs from teh Sammi *Aaaawwwwww*.

Sammi: So I think Tracey and I were a little distracted by travel plans (OMG national rail is a pain in the ass).
Tracey: Well you have to understand people, travel plans (and the weather) are huge talking points for us Brits, because it is so terrible and such a traumatic experience half of the time. :P
Sammi: So we realise that we actually haven't planned to do anything, we just turned up :P
Tracey: Yes, we were not very organised, lol.
Sammi: Well we are just in different aspects. It's all about saving us money, which is why the train thing was such an ordeal. Believe me £45 return (with discount) is basically robbing you. Well not so much me, more Tracey :P
Tracey: Uh huh. I find it rather odd that it cost so much from Birmingham. I was on the floor in shock, hence why I opted to get to Bristol an hour later for the cheapness (though it still wasn't that cheap off peak and with a discount.... crayzeee).
Sammi: Yeah, especially when it only cost me £12.60 open return at peak rate. Thirty minus extra travel time does not equal an extra £30!
Tracey: Indeed. Anyhoo we are getting a little sidetracked here. So the weather was very miserable yesterday (and today, in Birmingham at least, it's lovely. Typical)
Sammi: Evesham has sun today too!
Tracey: So we decided we'd just walk along to the new shopping complex that had just recently opened 15 minutes away from Temple Meads and then decide from there what to do. Jamie said there was a Monsoon Accessorize and I was like *glee*. Whenever she sees an Accessorize she always thinks of me *giggles*. But we never actually ended up going in there, lol.
Sammi: Aren't you glad though, look at how I was in H&M!
Tracey: Yes exactly, because you both know I would have brought something. ;)
Sammi: I'm nodding!

Note: A Sammi, a Jamie and a Tracey in a shopping complex is not a good thing. None of us really had money to spend but temptation was EVERYWHERE! Lol!

We took Jamie around places such as Debenhams and looked at pretty dresses even though we have no where to wear them (and consequently thought about Friends: The one where the girls are sitting in wedding dresses drinking beers, lol), SHOES and perfume. Jamie was amazed. But the whole point of going into Debenhams was to find a WC, a thing that was an often occurrence that day :P (Sammi: Trace aren't you reminded of our usual routine when we meet up. M&S for breakfast then off to Debenhams :P... Tracey: LOL *nods*). Sammi nearly fell down the escalators ... quite a few times *iz not safe*

We had lunch in Pret-A-Manger. Nice food and one of the least expensive places to eat in that complex. The queue was CRAYZEE but we eventually got through and found seats (even if we did have to clear the table ourselves). We ate, talked about Jamie and her uni stuff, fandom (as I had just got a text off Livs (blowersgate) squeeing madly, hehe), my nursing career thus far, Sammi and her potential new job and a lot of other important and interesting things friends generally chat about. :) Which means it was probably completely random, crazy and nonsensical. :P GIRAFFE!!!!!!!!!!

So it's only just gone 1pm and Tracey and I aren't leaving till 6pm. Jamie had pointed out a cinema on our 5cent tour earlier and we figure, why not check it out! We enter and omg, it's so different from other cinemas we have been in, more, I don't know, posh and comfy looking I guess are the words to describe it (like the lobby of a swanky hotel complete with bar!). We go to see what's on and in a time frame of them starting (around 2-3pm) and decide upon How to Lose Friends and Alienate People. With Simon Pegg, Kirsten Dunst and Gillian Anderson it's got to be good, right? We get tickets and then decide to wonder a bit because the movie doesn't actually start until 2pm. Jamie wondered if La Senza was like Victoria Secrets so we gave her a tour (as Sammi and I said we had both spent shit loads in that shop recently). She gets excited about all the cute PJ's and wants to buy some before she goes back home to Chicago.

We come back to the cinema, get some drink and M&Ms and proceed to screen 5. Sammi had forgotten her glasses so we opted for seats near the front (Sammi: Yes I am that lame!) and dude, the were sort of like recliner chairs (or rocking chairs I guess). Jamie is very excited because this is her first cinema experience in England (but then we get annoyed because we were supposed to see Harry Potter 6 together until they moved it back until next year *pouts*). Anyway I get my camera out and see try to get a picture of Jamie (which she hides from, lol) and then I give her, her birthday present to which she was all happy about because I got her some Cadbury's Flakes (Sammi: I got her 5, beat that :P) and dairy milk which had come straight from Cadbury world itself, as I had asked my uncle to get me some... (he works there ;)).

The film turned out to be quite awesome. Though it was slow to start off with, it picked up and became quite the little gem of a movie. Simon Pegg is well, genious and Gillian Anderson was freakin' fantabulous (though the blonde hair still sorta irks me. Red Head Gill is much better IMO. Sammi disagrees, she likes Gillian with Blonde or Brunette hair way better). Ooh and Jeff Bridges sort of freaked me out at first, but he turned out to be quite funny.

The movie finished at just gone four, it's now been a few hours since Jamie and Sammi have had coffee so we go round the corner to Costa. The queue is insane, another theme of the day, so I go and get us some seats with comfy chairs. Tracey knows what I drink cause we've been to Costa enough :P While I wait I see a guy with the finest ass EVA! Big up the Assistant Manager! Seriously, I'm regretting not taking a photo to prove to you guys. Finally Jamie and Tracey sit down and I point him out to them. They agree, there was junk in his trunk (or glute in his boot :P) (Tracey: is seriously pmsl at remembering that bit of the day. Hehehe) There was more talking and then, PHOTOS!! Well we were all determined to get some photos out of the day, even though I (Tracey) looked like complete and utter shit (damn you rain, damn you!!!). Jamie and Sammi shy away at first as they hate photos (as we all do) and then we sorta get some good ones, lol. Photos to follow at some point. :)

So after much photograph taking (and being blinded by flashes) we decided we must get up because it was gone 5pm and Jamie and I wanted to go to The Body Shop and Sammi to H&M (oh noes). We get to the body shop and look around, Jamie gets annoyed that she didn't actually need anything. And then there was mention of Chicago... Jamie said that Chicago had only just gotten a H&M and she called Chicago the rebel city and then Sammi and I start thinking about Calamity Jane and singing 'just got back from the windy city, the windy city is mighty pretty but it ain't got what I got' and also the Deadwood Stage. Haha (long live Doris Day, hehe). Jamie informs me on msn last night that she had no idea we did that, lol. Anyhoo we then toddle off to H&M and well, I will let Sammi explain that bit. So I (Sammi) had seen, in this magazine, that H&M have this Tartan scarf that I want ... you guys know me and scarves. I see one and want it. So going into H&M was a bad idea but no-one stopped me :P I spent around £30 on two scarves, a hat and a pair of gloves!

Then was the time to go back to the train station for Sammi and I to get our train *sniffles*. The weather was still completely awful, so we had to battle wind and rain with our umbrellas (Jamie completely gets why we English complain so much about rain now. Oh and she thinks England will completely sink one day from the amount of rain we get, lol). We missed the 6pm train (cause nature called all 3 of us) so waited around until our 6.30pm train. We talked a little more and then was the goodbyes. We make tentative plans for another meet up in Birmingham because Jamie wants to come up here and see it (have no idea why :P). And I mentioned after 17th November because the German Christmas Markets will be here *Yay*. So we all had a huge squishy group hug and then Sammi and I went and got our train.

19.15: Sammi gets off the train at her station
20.00: Tracey gets into Birmingham New Street
20.05: After some very careful driving in pouring rain and darkness and a stop at the store Sammi gets home
20.30: Tracey gets on her bus (she lives stupidly far away from Birmingham town centre).
21.00: Sammi starts watching Sanctuary
21.10: Tracey finally gets home. Phew! And watches Sanctuary
22.00: We were supposed to write this post but Sammi was cold and extremely tired! I'm glad we didn't now cause OMG this has taken SOOOOOO long!

Also
1) OMFG the preview for episode 6 of House!
2) I'm in love with Sanctury

Won't be around for a while. Maybe not until the weekend. I know I haven't been on of late but that's because I decided to plough through 10 books in 6 days. I won't be on IM or LJ (sorry tinie I just came back and now I have to go again *pouts*). If you have my number you can text me, or hey if I'm worth the money you can always give me a call. I think I have my cell number on LJ so if any new people want it it's there. Yeah o bye for a bit.

I was really hoping I'd get to avoid having to do this

I'm not back but I just thought I'd post to voice my opinion on this strike that SOME people seem to be participating in.

To be honest I don't see the point. It's not like they're really going to take any notice. I mean the amounts of posts made doesn't directly influence the amount of money they make. Let's face it people they're running a business and are most likely only going to pay attention if they stop making a profit.

So they're taking away basic accounts, do you blame them. Advertising is how they make the money to let us have free accounts so why the hell are we complaining? Business is business and at the end of the day it's all about making money, deal with it!

This isn't meant to sound harsh or anything I just think it seems a little stupid to overreact to this when they could take away free accounts all together!

OPTIONAL: Upload the songs and post links

1. WHO NEEDS AIR - THE CLASSIC CRIME |mp3| cnnjunky
And I stand alone before the night.
My nakedness is so clear in the glow of the moonlight.
Life is old but so short.
We are young, we want more

2. HERE WITHOUT YOU - 3 DOORS DOWN ||dreamsincolors
The miles just keep rollin
as the people either way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
but I hope that it gets better as we go

3. OPEN YOUR ARMS - EDITORS ||dreamsincolors
You fail you fail to see now
What you need the most
Making a meal of me now
You're the perfect host

4. STAND IN THE RAIN - SUPERCHICK |mp3| cnnjunky
She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself
And the fears whispering
If she stands, she'll fall down

5. KNOCKED UP - KINGS OF LEON ||
Who'll call us renegade
Feel like we're living crazy
We like taking on the town
Some people getting lazy

6. CAN'T TAKE IT IN - IMOGEN HEAP ||dreamsincolors
Oh empty my heart
I've got to make room for this feeling
so much bigger than me

7. COMATOSE - SKILLET ||
I'm asleep and all I dream of
Is waking to you
Tell me that you will listen
Your touch is what I'm missing

8. THROUGH GLASS - STONE SOUR ||dreamsincolors
How do you feel? That is the question
But i forget.. you dont expect an easy answer
When something like a soul becomes
Initialized and folded up like paper dolls and little notes

9. WINGS OF A BUTTERFLY - HIM ||dreamsincolors
Heaven ablaze in our eyes
We're standing still in time
The blood on our hands is the wine
We offer a sacrifice

10. WHAT I WANT - DAUGHTRY ||
It always seemed that I was sorry for the things that I did,
But never did a thing about it 'til I let you in.
It's kinda funny about the time that I was falling apart.
You came and put me back together, now.

11. I DO NOT WANT THIS - NINE INCH NAILS ||dreamsincolors
bamboo puncturing this skin
and nothing comes bleeding out of me just like a waterfall i'm drowning in
2 feet below the surface i can still make out your wavy face
and if i could just reach you maybe i could leave this place

12.ANYWHERE BUT HERE - SICK PUPPIES |mp3| cnnjunky
I held onto you for as long as I could but today
You fell away
Now what I hold are the memories we barely made

13. BREATHE INTO ME - RED ||
And this is how it looks when I am standing on the edge
And this is how I break apart when I finally hit the ground
And this is how it hurts when I pretend I don't feel any pain
And this is how I disappear when I throw myself away

14. BLISS (i don't wanna know) - HINDER ||
I'll go ahead and pour myself a drink
I really couldn't care less what you think
Well I don't have to listen now
Live this day down

15. I'M NOT ALRIGHT - SANCTUS REAL
burn away the pride, bring me to my weakness
'til everything i hide behind is gone
and when i'm open wide with nothing left to cling to

16. THE GAME - ACTION ACTION ||
Don't want to fall in love when it's in front of us.
Why can't we dream?
Fantasize without compromise,
a tear duct short of an alibi.

17. ALL AROUND ME - FLYLEAF
The music makes me sway
The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you

18. X AMOUNT OF WORDS - BLUE OCTOBER ||
You're solar, bipolar
Panic disorder
Seems harder and harder and harder
Still you try to control it

19. BLOW ME AWAY - BREAKING BENJAMIN |mp3| cnnjunky
Only the strongest will survive
Lead me to heaven, when we die
I am the shadow on the wall
I'll be the one to save us all

20. AL GUENINA (leave the light on) - OUR LADY PEACE ||
A woman smiled at me
She said, welcome to my home
Life is different here she says it's not
Camouflage with gold

21. ON THE ROOF AGAIN - EVE 6 ||dreamsincolors
In the throws of young love leroy
Didnt think to think and in the blink of an eye
Tied the knot not knowing how to not know
He was the prodigal son this girl had brought him home

22. LEAN ON MY SHOULDER - CLOU ||
I can't believe,
When you said that you'd never come back
So I wait,
but you know my heart is broken

23. BETTER THAT WE BREAK - MAROON 5 ||dreamsincolors
Now waking up is hard to do
And sleeping is impossible too
Everything is reminding me of you
What can I do?

24. BETTER BETTER - MIS TEEQ ||
That your eyes will stray
And in an innocent way
You'll smile as he walks by
Or the juice running loose

25. LOS ANGELES - SUGARCULT ||dreamsincolors
I want a love, love that won't hit back
Want sex, sex without a catch
Want a face, to trust, to feel, to lust

26. LIPSTICK - ALESHA DIXON
They try to get you flaky
Can’t find no buts no maybes,
You think that girl’s a traitor,
But that man’s the instigator

27. EVERYDAY - TOBY LIGHTMAN |wma| cnnjunky
And I find myself in need of a pause
I'm not sure why, but I think that it's because
Of this desire to be what others want me to be
Which is nothing close to me

28. DOWNFALL - MATCHBOX TWENTY |mp3| cnnjunky
Wonder how you sleep
I wonder what you think of me
If I could go back
Would you have ever been with me

29. NEVER TOO LATE - THREE DAYS GRACE ||dreamsincolors
This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong
Who would have guessed it

30. BREATHLESS - ACCEPTANCE
You'll hear her cry, Oh
Take this
Make it something beautiful again
Make this

31. PHENOMENON - THOUSAND FOOT KRUTCH |mp3| cnnjunky
If you're like us, calling all riders,
roll up beside us, no place to hide us,
all freedom fighters, let's unite us,
switch on your nitrous and...let's.. go...

32. I WILL FOLLOW YOU INTO THE DARK - DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE ||dreamsincolors
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark

33. EX's AND OH's - ATREYU ||dreamsincolors
I drank too much
Cause of you my liver turned to dust
Cold rust tastes
Cold creeping cold pain

34. EDGE OF SEVENTEEN - STEVIE NICKS ||dreamsincolors
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singin'
Whoo-whoo-whoo

35. FORTRESS - PINBACK
Too long til fall, sick summer in bed
You and a lazy mood
Ten times the fall, spread, sacked, and I've failed
Nobody move, nobody move

36. ONE SPECIFIC THING - MR HUDSON & THE LIBRARY ||
So I packed up my life,
into the boot of your car.
Must have driven for an hour or two,
before I reached Manchester

37. CORNFLAKE GIRL - TORI AMOS ||dreamsincolors
Things are getting kind of gross
And I go at sleepy time
This is not really happening
You bet your life it is

38. SUPERSTAR - TEGAN & SARA ||dreamsinclors
Dignified in what she does
When she sings the smile that she brings
To all of you unaware of what's to come
I said tell me what's to come

39. BLUE AND YELLOW - THE USED ||dreamsincolors
and it's all in how you mix the two
and it starts just where the light exists
it's a feeling that you cannot miss
and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it

40. FOUND YOU - ROSS COPPERMAN ||
When i saw you there
Just in the other day
You smiled at me
In a secret way

41. MAKE IT RAIN - ANOUK |mp3| cnnjunky
Right behind that perfect face
there's someone who keeps secrets hidden well
Think I don't want to
know reasons why you're crashing over me

42. STEAL MY SUNSHINE - LEN ||dreamsincolors
i was lying on the grass on sunday morning of last week
indulging in my self defeats
my mind was thugged, all laced and bugged, all twisted
round and beat

43. BLOW AWAY - STAINED ||dreamsincolors
Live in my head for just one day
I see myself and look away
The road is showing now on my face
Soon I'll disappear without a fucking trace

44. CRAZY BITCH - BUCKCHERRY ||dreamsincolors
Break me down, you got a lovely face
We're going to your place
And now you got to freak me out
Scream so loud, getting fuckin' laid

45. ALONE - CREED ||
Affirmative may be justified
Take from one give to another
The goal is to be unified
Take my hand be my brother

46. TAINTED LOVE - SOFT CELL ||dreamsincolors
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

47. THROUGH THE MONSOON - TOKIO HOTEL ||
I'm staring at a broken door
There's nothing left here anymore
My room is cold, it's making me insane
I've been waitin' here so long

48. RIDE WITH ME - THE VINES ||
That's the start, the middle, and the end
Aren't you glad the universe pretends
If I don't get this message home
Once again I'm gonna hate alone

49. IT'S TOO LATE - EVERMORE |mp3| cnnjunky
Monday morning: hesitate, I can't get out of bed
I'd rather go back to the dreams I'm living in my head
Tuesday evening: pack my bags, I'm heading out the door
I left a box of memories lying on the floor

50. APPLEBOTTOM JEANS - T-PAIN ||
So sexual, she was flexible
Professional, drinkin X and ooo
Hold up wait a minute, do i see what I think I
Whoa

Now throw your hands in the air And wave 'em like you just don't care
