*yawwwn*

Last night I stayed up FAR too late reading this epic length FMA fanfic. It was very action-packed with lots of sneaking around and general badass antics. We're talking... 4am and the birds were waking up sort of late. xD Je suis LOSER.

Then of course it was so warm and I slept at a funny angle so my neck was angry with me when I woke up.. at 1pm.

Today I went prom dress shopping with my little sister. We'd tried before and it had only resulted in failure. Today we went out to Buckland Hills and it turns out that Sears is good for more that washing machines and vacuum cleaners! I am relieved because now I don't need to try and convince her that modifying my old prom dress is a good idea.

and I am wondering how I did not know about it. I went through a big... supernatural? out-there? crazy things? phase in high school where I just ate up anything similar to that sort of monument. I would love to go see it in person someday. The inscriptions sound really creepy and I want to see how that sunbeam showing what day of the year it is thing work. Pity I'm not going south for school or it would be easier.

And now to end this, a meme. One that I LOVE the idea of. An animation mene!

101/225

Wow I have seen all (or parts of) nearly half this list. o_o;; Is that good or bad? I do know I need to look some of these up.. and buy a lot of the ones I don't own but love to little bits. Also, considering my anime love, I have seen very few of the listed anime movies.
I need to know who compiled this list and why Bedknobs and Broomsticks is not on it!

[identity profile] magicalmartha.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
I need you to know that I am positive that my friend created this meme - people have definitely added to it, but the weird-ass category titles (like the Disney Dark Age, Disney Renaissance) are quirky and the same. I find it REMARKABLY cool that I know someone who started a viral meme.

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
....that. is so cool!

However you should tell said friend that the failure to include Bedknobs and Broomsticks.. makes me sad. xD

[identity profile] magicalmartha.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
To be fair, Bedknobs and Broomsticks is only partially animated...plus the original meme was only 101 movies for a nice rounded number. People (including myself) have been adding to the list. :D

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Fair enough. :) It depends on whether or not Mary Poppins was on there originally, as that is also only partially animated.

[identity profile] i-claudia.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Clearly, you should be saying je suis AWESOME, because you know only the cool kids stay up all night reading fic. ;D

Also HOORAY, someone else on this planet thinks Frollo is a BAMF villain!

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Bahahahah! I have acheived fandom-awesomeness in my failure to notice that I haven't moved in 4 hours because I'm too busy reading!!!

OMG Hellfire is such a great song. Frollo... is just awesome

[identity profile] thedreademperor.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
we watched blood: the last vampire at anime club too.

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
ah hah! I originally had that marked off, but then I couldn't remember which it was we had seen so I unmarked it. *fail*

[identity profile] awayfromlife.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
What, staying up 'til the small hours is very responsible fangirl behaviour. You can't miss all the awesomeness because of trifles like sleep, right? (Also, link plz to epic badass sneaky fic. I'm curious.)

That monument is fascinating. Also, might come in handy after the zombie apocalypse that can arrive any moment now.:D

Yeah, I've seen very few of the animes, too. I mostly watch the series instead. But no, you're not a proper anime fan until you've seen Akira.:D

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Sleep is for the weak! Pumpkins are for the strong!! <33
http://truths-in-lies.livejournal.com/21246.html <- master entry for epic length fic (I can't believe I read over 200,000 words of fic in one sitting)

Hey man, when the zombies over-run us all, I gladly welcome our new mysterious monument building overlords.

I'd never realized how few anime *movies* I've seen since I started getting into anime. o_o;; I clearly have been doing it wrong for far too long! *mental note to watch Akira and restore rep*

[identity profile] awayfromlife.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh wow, that is epic. Sadly, I don't have the time to read it now.:(

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-28 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
ikr? Well the link is there for when you have time. :)

[identity profile] japarican85.livejournal.com 2009-04-29 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I am disappointed by your lack of anime animation viewing. :P

[identity profile] starsparkle333.livejournal.com 2009-04-30 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
But.. but.. T_T I am disappointed at myself, I didnt realize there was such a gap in my anime knowledge! But see.. now I have this handy list to rely on.

I love Disney too!!

[identity profile] akiba-minako.livejournal.com 2009-06-29 10:14 am (UTC)(link)
