(Here is Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4.)
Chaos breaks out. Not the giant spiders are attacking, we'll all be spun cocktails in five seconds, run, Mr. Frodo, run sort of chaos. (Thankfully.) Just the social discomfort of the highest degree that seems trifling when read about, but very, very, very bad when actually experienced first hand.
( Onward, ho! )

ICON BATTLE!
Oct. 3rd, 2012 10:06 amI'm so glad
birdienl suggested that we have an icon battle--this is my first one, and I must say, I've had a ton of fun with it! Do check it out and tell me what you think (and hop over to her journal and let her know as well). :D

Chapter IV
The League of the Scarlet Pimpernel
Everybody's sitting happily at the well-laid table in the coffee room of the Fisherman's Rest—everyone, that is, except one of the following possible people.
a. Severus Snape
b. Eeyore
c. the Lone Ranger
d. those domino-playing guys who are NOT French
( And the answer is . . . )

Chapter III
The Refugees
First off, the reader is expected to wade through the usual filler about politics, which said filler I skip through without even thinking.
( What is with filler, anyway? Why put it there if nobody reads it? )

This little masterpiece of a book is arguably one of my favorites of all time. Much as I love it, though, I do have to admit, Orczy's writing style can be just a wee bit much for me. Thus, most of this commentary will focus on praise for my favorite characters, and jokes aimed at Orczy whenever she gets too excited or sentimental about stuff. You have been duly cautioned. :)

2012. Well, Well, Well.
Jan. 1st, 2012 01:43 pmYesterday was movies, movies, and more movies for me. Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (I am helpless against the combination of pretty hair and sword-fighting) and Phantom of the Opera 2005, followed by Fellowship of the Ring and Hellboy II. But my family paused HII at midnight to cover each other in silly string, before going back for another round of "Can't Smile without You". XD
All in all, it was a great beginning to the new year.
How is 2012 treating the rest of you?
