I miss being at Portus. It was fun. Now I feel like I don't have anything to do. Because, well, I don't. I'm still working on my con post but it's taking a while because it's all coming out in a confused mess of incoherence.

Also, thinking it over, was I the youngest person in our group of people? I think I was. I didn't feel like the youngest, but that's probably because everyone else was so immature just because I'm used to being the oldest.

Also also, people voted for my icon this week at [livejournal.com profile] lantis_lims? That was a pleasant surprise, since it was another "thrown together in ten minutes" entry. I still feel like the balance is off, but I've tried all sorts of things and it hasn't improved. It's that damn picture of Ronon leaning forward. I'll have to chop off his head and paste it on differently before it'll work, and right now I just don't have the patience for that.

LMAO yes, actually, this probably WAS it. We come from a community where lolcat speak reigns supreme and House Unity Through Perversion is a way of life. And dammit, WE'RE PROUD.

So glad to have met you, OMG. Now come join us!!! *waves fingers in front of your face* We are the droids you're looking for.

In retrospect, that automatically makes pika the youngest in any situation that contains no 12 year old boys.

Pfffft, whut eva!! My fart jokes are WAY better than any 12 year old...oh wait. *slinks off* XP

I had a reply written out to this yesterday and then I somehow flailed at something ridiculous my brother did and, uh, turned my computer off? So that was smooth of me. And I totally forgot what I was trying to say in reply.

Oh, except I'm re-reading the HP books with [livejournal.com profile] kandigurl so my HE application can have some justification in canon, instead of just "well, I hear on teh internets that Ron Weasley is a pretty cool character, so I'll go with him as my favorite" or whatever. BECAUSE THAT'S SERIOUSLY HOW MY JUSTIFICATION WOULD GO. Also? That time-turner question? IS SERIOUSLY NOT GOOD. "Kinky voyeuristic shit" has spun out into "breaking all the laws of timeturners and having parties/orgies/whatever with like FIFTY OF ME!" It's good that such things don't exist IRL that we know of! because I'd probably break the universe somehow. And I'm actually a little shocked that everyone doesn't have that answer, because I cannot think of another application for the timeturner.

I MISS PORTUS TOO.

How old are you? You don't seem young.

17th-Jul-2008 03:35 am (UTC)
21! But everyone says I have the soul of an old lady, whatever THAT means.
17th-Jul-2008 02:28 pm (UTC)
Haha, aw. :) I'm 24, so you're not that much younger than me! And I didn't feel like I was talking to a yougn' or anything. ;)

I've got the same feeling. I miss seeing everyone laughing all day. I think I was the oldest in the group.

It's like, now all I'm doing is sitting around at home and occasionally hanging out with one or two people instead of like TWENTY. It's definitely very different!

I should have drug myself out of bed on Sunday morning and gone to the breakfast. I just couldn't. I feel cruddy not saying bye to everyone.

So cool meeting you at Portus!
17th-Jul-2008 03:37 am (UTC)
Yes! Your costumes were awesome!
17th-Jul-2008 02:59 am (UTC)
And I was the oldest. At least in our little group.

And we're so immature!! Age is all in the mind!!!

And my mind is going. I forgot your pics. *slapshand* Bad, Dobby!
17th-Jul-2008 03:41 am (UTC)
Really? You don't seem old at all. I agree that it's all in the mind. Your spirit is young! (And so is your appearance, which probably helps a lot.)

Haha, I thought about the pictures today but figured I wouldn't start reminding you until this weekend, lol.
17th-Jul-2008 02:37 pm (UTC)
I think you may have been the youngest, but you didn't ACT like the youngest, which is the important part. :D

And hey, since we were talking about Koreans who can really dance . . . YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT RAIN. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=O5B0XItDpSM) If you can ignore the melodrama in the first 40 seconds or so, the rest of the music video is FUCKING AMAZING. Also, he's Stephen Colbert's arch-nemesis, AND he's in Speed Racer. ;)

I think if I had acted younger, I may have fit in better!

also lol @ the title of that song. And god, I love boypop dancing. I have taken classes but my body doesn't work like that so I'm always just SO IMPRESSED by it. amazing!

Touché.

Oh my god I know. THIS IS EVEN MORE AMAZING LOOK AT THAT ODE TO MICHAEL JACKSON. (http://www.comedycentral.com/colbertreport/videos.jhtml?videoId=156555)
18th-Jul-2008 09:29 pm (UTC)
AHHAHA OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT. STEPHEN COLBERT + HOT KOREAN GUY DANCING = WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF, FORREALS.

The nice thing about H_E (JOINJOINJOIN) is that honestly, when talking to other H_E people I can never tell what age they are. Everyone just meshes into this commonality. I didn't feel like you were young. You're the same age as my fiancé, so I'm not used to noticing 3 year age differences I guess. XD
18th-Jul-2008 12:00 am (UTC)
I'm slowly working on my H_E app but I'm re-reading the books first since I haven't in like... since the fifth book came out. SO SOONISH. It looks funnnnn!

I think I was also feeling extra-young at the con since parking was eleventy trillion dollars and I had my parents/brother drop me off and pick me up, and was thus oddly dependent on others for transportation.
18th-Jul-2008 02:40 am (UTC)
Sounds like a good plan! :D

Man, I wish we'd had someone to pick us up and drop us off. We'd have saved a lot of money. Still, I know what you mean about the transportation dependency.

I miss being at Portus too!! So much geeky fun! I know I'm like the MILLIONTH person to say this... BUT YOU REALLY MUST JOIN H_E! :D

Also, you did not seem young to me... but one of my best friends is 21 to my 25 years.. so perhaps I'm used to it :P
18th-Jul-2008 08:51 am (UTC)
I will definitely try to join H_E since everyone is commanding me to! I still don't really understand what its PURPOSE is, but I hear it's fun, sooooo?
