Sooooooooo. Anyone on my flist know anything about circle lens? Reliability, brands, OMFG NO YOU'LL BURN YOUR EYES OUT?

Long story short, I have been SO overwhelmed today, I was actually wearing mismatching earrings ALL DAY.

D:

OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG shoot me now plz.

It's not quite a meme, but it looks like everyone's gearing up for Manifest right about now.  So I might as well go along with it.

Friday: Random lolita ensemble
Most likely my birthday dress, since I haven't gotten any good pictures of it yet, and it's too cold to wear it without a bolero or something.  I picked up some gorgeous brown vintage shoes when we were in Belgrave, so I just need to pick up some other brown accessories to coordinate.  And if wine and brown don't look good together, well, my Meta JSK could use more loving too.

Saturday: Noelle Bor - Trinity Blood
It's all about the details for TB, so I think I should start making the details now, and sew up the main part of the costume while the Doctor's in NY again.  The hardest part seems to be finding good reference pics :\  I think she just wears the same basic costume as all the other nuns, just with a higher slit and black stockings and garters (yuuuuummmmm).  If anyone can confirm that for me, that would be spiffy.

Sunday: Rikku - FFX
Assuming Mon does Lulu, and Flipper does Yuna, this should be awesome cakes.  And if no one else is doing FFX, then I might as well wear my FFX-2 White Mage Yuna again.  Yay!  I might even be able to use that blonde wig that was supposed to be for Penelo XD  Goggles, yay!  I don't think I'll go all the way and get Al Bhed contacts, though, I'm iffy enough with coloured contacts with my eyes as it is.

The problem with listening to Les Mis at work?

It doesn't help with the whole "zomg under attack" feeling. And it's REALLY hard to resist the urge to leap onto my desk and rip out Do You Hear the People Sing.

*gets shot*

( Comment Meme to make this entry a bit longer )

It's so hard to think of proper, etiquettely approved advice when people insist on using geek references, and you can't help but imagine those characters in the situation XD

Also, lol at music that started playing when I was reading the thread.

PS: Just in case, spoiler warning for Dr Who Season 4 in comments.

I just want to cry.

Well, although geek levels at work have been rising, obviously I'm still way ahead of them.

Sefie: *just recieved a huge list of errors*
Sefie: In the words of Keanu Reeves:
Sefie: Whoa.
Jonathan: viz a viz?
Sefie: Concordantly. Apropos.
Jonathan: apropos of?
Sefie: Oh, I thought we were still quoting from the Matrix Trilogy
Jonathan: I took the red pill, sorry
Sefie: ... wait, I just realised you actually meant to say "vis-a-vis"
Sefie: Not just as a quote
Jonathan: let's start again. You were saying....?

So... uh... I haven't been ignoring people.  I've just been caught up with playing a PC game.  Sorry.

Um.

It wasn't WoW, or a MMO or anything like that.

Um.

It was Curse of Monkey Island ._.;

1. Since when did Reddit start using a TOAD as their mascot? I nearly shat bricks when I realised what it was.

2. I hate writing webpage content. REALLY HATE IT.

3. Also discovered I don't like Sri Lankan food. It's too bitter and salty :(

4. Going home late from work AGAIN, only to have a late night meeting. Managed to swing it otherwise :D

On the upside, I got a new icon :D

The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. Well let's see.

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicise those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them
5) Put a star next to those you've only partially read.

( BOOKS! )

I've seen that title pop up on my flist a few times. You know how you get a bunch of females in the same spot, and they start synchronising? It seems to be happening online, too :\

Which is the long way of saying I feel sick and dizzy, and I really don't want to be working on a billion flowcharts. At least no one's asking me to deliver training today.

I had a bento every day of this week!  Which, considering how gosh-darned hard it was...  I was really happy to have pretty food to help me through @_@;;  In fact, I was considering going out for lunch on Friday, when I realised 1) I had a training session to run from 12-2, 2) I couldn't afford to take a long lunch (even though I have four hours in lieu), 3) nothing around my workplace seemed "good enough" for a treat :(  So, bento it was!

WHY MUST PEOPLE BE SO STUPID! DX

I'm just trying to book a ROOM, people. A room that, while it doesn't exist YET, WILL exist by the time I need it. And because it DOESN'T exist YET, I can't use the current booking system, because it's NOT IN THERE YET.

And I'm not just picking on you at random about it, it's because YOU'RE THE FUCKING RENOVATION COORDINATOR. So don't whine at me that it's not your job!

One of those days where I just have to force myself to do ANYTHING. Argh.
I just want to be at home, petting the pretty dress that kawaii_mon made me.

And I'm hungry. WTF.

If anyone approaching "Hermione" joins in the next couple of weeks, someone's going to have to commit me to an asylum or something.

Yup, still making bento. I had less pictures on my camera than I thought, I know I've made more than four bento in the last three weeks, but I either didn't have time to take photos, or didn't have batteries.


Dessert: Kiwifruit and caramels
Top tier: Rice and S&B Mild Golden Curry (chicken and vegies)
Bottom tier: Coleslaw and carrots
