in November 17th, 2005 @ 00:26Very secret diaries are cool, but i definitely recommend the family-friendly version (yes there is one! somewhere…try googling it) homosexuality isn’t what bugs me. slash bugs me. the lotr characters are not gay because that is not how tolkein wrote them! you do not have to add slash fanfics to every book written! there is no point!!!
omg reading that lotr one was sad. I happen to have five of those rings off the bookmarks (legolas, faramir, aragorn, gandalf, and the One Ring ones) and one from the lotr trivial pursuit game which i also happen to have and which nobody ever plays with me any more (wonder why…). and my door says speak friend, and enter in dwarvish runes!!! which i did not have to look up! the sad geekiness of my life totally rocks but it’s also rather depressing and i have hw to do.
you know you’re addicted to sleep deprivation when…
you sign up for theater with holsclaw
you comment randomly on the museblog instead of doing your homework
upon doing your homework, you stay up reading all night
you procrastinate
when your parents bug you about it you explain to them in great detail how it is scientifically proven easier to get up if you’re already up.
you make little lists of addiction on the museblog even after your mom has threatened three times now to take it away if you don’t get started on your homework.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 18:50You know you’re addicted to reading when:
You walk around reading a book whenever possible and never trip. Even on stairs.
You spend more daily time reading than sleeping.
You don’t want the latest tech accessory for your birthday. You want more books.
You have exhausted the book supply in your house and in several local libraries.
You scream whenever you see someone reading a book with the cover folded back around it.
You keep your Muse magazines in a special drawer in your desk. A locked drawer.
You have no idea what just happened on Lost or One Tree Hill, but you can give a detailed summary of four out of five books anyone can name.
Sadly, I fit most of these categories.
