Flights of fancy for a fanciful girl~

sisterjuneYAY I finally managed to get to the library today and get some more books to read. I've been on a total reading spree lately and just going 2-3 days without books nearly turned me gray. I've been reading quite a few romance novels to be honest and I think Loretta Chase is officially a new favorite as far as Authors go for me. and believe you me, I have a short list. Ursula K leguin, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett have been the only authors I would call "favorites" for the last oh...10 years. It's nice to have another on there now, and I'm amused at how both my fave male authors are english while both my fave female authors are american.
Anyway 2 days ago, aside from all the lovely people bonding I did, I also got a haircut and talked to some cosmetics lady about make up. She gave me like 4 bottles of different shit to put on my face to make my skin "healthy" I was like wtf, WHY DO I NEED SO MUCH SHIT FOR MY FACE? I did like the make up she put on my eyes though and foundation has gone a long way in the time I spent shunning it. It was nice, so I think I might start putting some make up on when I go out more now. Like to the mall or lighter version for school but other than that I'm goin au naturale.
I saw the Star Trek movie last friday. and I now have a bit of a crush on Zachary quinto, fuck that wasnt supposed to happen! -_- I just found him creepy before cause of the sylar role he had on heroes. I mean dude just had big eyebrows and a tendency for slicing open heads, NOT a turn on. But his rendition of Spock was.....nice *__*. Something that was also nice was how he filled out his uniform ;D. As for less shallow thoughts I had on the film, it was alot of fun! I dont know shit about star trek, my Dad, who I saw the movie with. Knows more about star trek than I do, which is weird cause I'm the tv junkie not him. But I really enjoyed the movie and the young actors did a real good job I think. And also ALSO SIMON PEGG EEEEE!! I kept waiting the whole time for him to appear and when he finally I did I was like YAY SIMON PEGG *SQUEE* good times. If you havent seen the star trek movie already, you should!
In other news, I've finally started studying Japanese seriously, I already know plenty of words and can get the gist of most Japanese conversations, my only issue is a total lack of knowledge with hiragana, kanji and katakana and also my grammer is shit. So I'm teaching myself slowly (ever so slowly -_-) in a book until fall comes round and I can take a bloody class for it already. Funny fact, the first word I learned to write in hiragana and can do now entirely from memory is "Subaru". Ironic? perhaps. Pitiful? you betcha.
Speaking of Eito...I saw a book at the library called "Shy Boy" and could not contain my giggles. Ah fandom, even when you try to get away from it, it follows you EVERYWHERE.
aaand I shall wrap this post up with a quiz! Jane Austen heroines woo!
You are Emma Woodhouse of Emma! You like being the queen of your social circle (small and provincial as it may be), and feel it's your duty to help those less influential than you. You often meddle in the affairs of others, though you do it with a pure heart. You are often deluded in your flights of fancy, but your good intentions and creative spirit make you someone anyone could like.
I...never read this book, but Emma sounds kind of...really awesome. pffft Elizabeth, being Emma would be WAY more fun clearly.
Oh and I changed my layout and profile again. It's very colorful and summery I would say. SOMEONE said it burned her retinas but what does she know?
