There's some new peeps on the flist from [livejournal.com profile] het_reccers, it'd be cool if you all could fill this out. Also welcome to my lj! =D Been enjoying your entries, I apologize for the lack of comments. Too much busyness has left me sapped of all ability to think of things to say by the time I get home and on the computer.

PLUS
1. One thing you like about me: I love how you reward yourself for your (always amazing) accomplishments! You have this terrific work hard but still enjoy life attitude that I greatly admire. Also (cheating by adding another), I think it's terrific how you've reconnected to your roots. It's something I desperately want to but have yet to accomplish.
2. Two things you like about yourself: My hair (lol) and my dedication
3. Put this in your lj so I can tell you what I think of you? Already did. :-)

Regina Spektor and Vienna Teng are both lovely, you have great taste in music. <3 And maybe I shall try Going Bovine again? I actually gave it a shot awhile back because I read a review somewhere comparing it to Justine Larbalestier's Liar (fantastic book btw) but I couldn't really get into it. I might have just not been in the right mood for it though.

Also your OTP is Arthur/Gwen? =O What a radical and unexpected choice! I would never have expected Pendragon love from you. ;)

It took me a few chapters to get into GB, tbh, but once things started moving I was HOOKED.

Also your OTP is Arthur/Gwen? =O What a radical and unexpected choice! I would never have expected Pendragon love from you.

You know, I was honestly stuck between my moderate love for A/G and my never-ending love for L/G, but in the end I realized that I want to see Angel in pretty clothes, so A/G won out. I could hardly write that with a straight face. XD
