I felt the sudden need to post, just to have a rant/ramble. I've been really busy all weekend so it feels like I haven't had much time to just... relax and chat. I've been spending quite a bit of time the last couple of days finishing off a play I've written for history, which is being performed to a class of eight year olds coming to visit! They are SO cute! ^_^

  <--- What I'm dressing Laura & Karen in as witches *lol* BURN THEM!! *kidding, I love you both*

The play is about a witch trial (I watched Monty Python for "research" XD) but it's quite hard work getting it all organised - I'm currently writing a list of props and things we will need. We did some filming today - and the witches enchant sheep to make them dance, and pigs  to make them sing, so I made all my friends wear sheep masks and dance about to "Shaun The Sheep." It was SO HARD not to laugh at the camera~!

I had a bit of excitement today, my father had been at the BBC Studios, and met Jon Culshaw and got his autograph which is made out to me! (for Americans, Culshaw is a british satire comedian, who impersonates Tony Blair, Ozzy Osbourne, Doctor Who, etc...) and when he gave my dad the autograph he did some impersonations of Doctor Who going: "Oh, likes Doctor Who, does she now?" XDXD *clings to Jon* HE IS SO NICE.

Watch him playing George Bush and Tony Blair (at the same time!) --> WatchMeWatchMe~! DDD So funny!  If you have some time watch "Dead Ringers" the comedy show he's from - it's hilarious. I have all the tapes. I fear i may be a more British thing, but give it a go! ^_^

In other news; I finally updated my fanfiction! Go me! Here is linky, in case you have not read it and would like to: "Chapter Eight"

KanamexYuuki fanfictions worth checking out this week:
I've been so spoilt for choice this week! These are just a few, but by no means all, just ones that stood out to me XD With the eagerly awaited update from Arret soon I am a very happy girl.

Kuran Kaname: Ancestor by Mlpbuttons --- An absolute must. Fantastic story, all about Kaname as the Ancestor. I adore this story, and its author.
Full Circle by xxkittypridexx --- The longed for update is here! This story is so extremely enjoyable, and the plot is very original. The idea of having two potential Kaname's running around at the same time is so much fu n, and keeps me on my toes.
The Vineyard by A and N --- This story shows so much potential! I love that it uses the monarchy, and that Haruka and Juuri remain alive. Plus, there is a confliction of interests between Kaname and Ichijou.
The Survival Medley  by abstractular --- Although this week is Zeki, it is filled with loads of KanamexYuuki one-shots, and the Zeki ones are still adorable to read. I love this author's drabbles.

How many links have I given this update? Heh, ah well, I had fun writing this. Hope this was relatively interesting to you! ^_^



 

It is my lovely friend, Annabella's, birthday today. She is A from the notorious duo (who I love to pieces) "A and N". Go and look them up! Especially their fanfiction The Luxe  *is not biased AT ALL*

Anyway, I wrote a little birthday present for her, based around our mutual love of Kaname and Yuuki. It is very fluffy, as is appropriate for a present ^_^

I hope you enjoyed that! Let me know what you think ;D I've never published something on livejournal before - how exciting?
Anyway, I will now be working next on my update for The Pureblood Secret - but I spent my weekend working on that fic for Bella so I only caught the odd moment for my real challenge. I am still aiming for late weekend - we will see how it goes!

I'm still OTH mad - I'm almost finished on season four. Awesome!


KanamexYuuki fanfictions worth checking out this week
If you don't check the fanfiction webpage every five minutes like I do, here are a few of my favourites that have been updated this week.

Bloody Nurse by Matylda Tyler --- Again! With the cliffhangers! But I can't really complain, because it was her best chapter so far. The tension and fear in the room was marvellously written.
Let Me Love You by Sapphirie --- If you like reading maturer fanfictions, then this is for you. Some moments are really good, such as the scene where Kaname & Yuuki are "fighting" outside.
Love in an elevator by Crikeywhathappened --- Love this fanfiction, love this girl. One of the best (if not the) best AU Kaname & Yuuki fanfiction out there. I beta for her, so maybe I'm biased ;}

I was working at Inn On The Park today; very happy to be home. It took me over an hour on the bus because this stupid school kid had a massive argument with the bus driver over a pass and refused to budge D:
My dad took me and James to KFC for dinner- nyom!

I've begun watching Romance Zero, on taisa's recommendations. It's really good - I recommend it if you like Korean drama and like quirky and different characters. Occasionally it can seem to move a little slowly, but I find this is quite common for Korean dramas. Furthermore, if you watch it online, I always find you get distracted by the usual facebook and things ^_^

I actually adore the characters though, they are so awesome. Plus, as I kinda want to be a wedding planner (as one of my billion career possibilities) it's really fun to watch from that perspective. The beginning scene made me LOL.

The link to watch it is coutesy of taisa08 :)

This week's obsessions

Reading: Friday's Child by Georgette Heyer --- Again. For the sixtieth time.
Watching: Romance Zero, One Tree Hill and Drag Me To Hell.
Listening: Green Day, Eminem, Taylor Swift 
Eating: Egg Frid Rice :D --- Gotta love rice. I live off it.
Other: Diet Coke --- I've drunk about twenty bottles, seriously. I'm a coke addict!


KanamexYuuki fanfictions worth checking out this week
If you don't check the fanfiction webpage every five minutes like I do, here are a few of my favourites that have been updated this week.

After Dark by Lieutenant Hros Wardog --- I love this woman. Seriously. If you haven't read this fanfiction you must. One of my favourites, and one that I re-read several times.
Bloody Nurse by Matylda Tyler --- This is really cute, and the cliffhanger at the end is killing me.
Thousand Miles by XxMoonlight.AngelxX --- AU, but very good. The relationship build up is coming along really well - gotta love the sexual tension!

I am going to fail English Literature tomorrow.
Goodbye world.

Well, I didn't fail, but it wasn't great either. There were nine poems for one part, and out of them I only forgot to revise one poem. Guess which one came up.

Just seen the raws for Vampire Knight 50 - go and see them here - tieba.baidu.com/f

It seems like it's a pretty good chapter. When it is scanlated by the lovely Sagakure I will comment seriously on it. So far I've been using my poor knowledge of Chinese to try and ascertain what its all about. The Yuuki and Kaname scenes are really cute, but I can't make out what Zero is talking about ^_^

Man, I'm too obsessed with VK for my own good.

Okay, so I honestly cannot believe it has been so long since I last wrote on my livejournal! However, I am determined to make an effort to do it, because I need somewhere to chat like crazy. At least here, if no one listens, I won't find out ;D

Today was a strange day. I mostly bummed around with my dad and ate flapjacks instead of revising. I am absolutely knackered from the twelve hours of drama yesterday! Well, it was only about an hour of actual performing, but with rehearsals and hanging around I didn't finish until 9pm. I think my exam went okay, but my group piece was definitely better than my duologue. In my duologue I am playing Satan - appropriate, ne? ;;}

I am also trying madly to update my fanfiction. I am sorry it has been so long! I am suffering from some sickness, which makes me sleep for ridiculous hours so I have little time for anything else. I am thinking of turning this livejournal into a place for rambling about good fanfictions and my own stories, but I'm not sure if anyone would particuarly care ^_^

On a random VK related note - see this fanfiction draw by my lovely friend Emmie-chan (MGM)
( Check this out )

Aside from Vampire Knight (my clear obsession) I also watched episode 23 of the television series 90210. Kinda crappy, but there are some adorable characters, particuarly Adriana and Navid, who I absolutely adore! I want to find my own Navid *clings to Navid* I couldn't believe the actor was really 28!

I must go and reply to Riz on PMs. I have been a hideous correspondent lately, to everyone, and I feel kinda guilty. At least everyone now knows I'm alive :P

p.s - I can't work out how to do cuts on livejournal. Am I being a moron? Probably! Could someone please tell me how to do it?
It turns out it was there after all. Perhaps I simply repel technology. 

It's half term! :)

I've spend almost every day with Becca and Becci, which is fun. We are going to watch Confessions of a Shopaholic at the cinema today. I wanted to go see Slumdog Millionaire but the timings didn't work out. ;((

We are walking to the galleria, which is like three miles away. But the advantages of walking, is it doesn't cost anything! I wish I could drive, but unfortunately I can't.  I really can't afford to pay out for driving lessons, and I cba with learning gears. If I go to America for uni, I am really going to just learn to drive an automatic there. Americans have it so much easier with learning to drive. My history teacher said it took him twenty minutes to learn to drive in America ;;)

Only five days till the new chapter of Vampire Knight! :D
How exciting~! :;D

First ever post :)

I've been using Livejournal for some time, but I've never actually posted any entries myself - I usually stick to commenting on other peoples LiveJournals.
Mainly because I don't think I have anything interesting to say, but there we are ;:D

I just got rejected for membership of 'Oh No They Didn't!' - A little disappointing! I enjoy reading the posts there.. Never mind.

I am now attempting to write some more fanfiction for Vampire Knight - it seems to dominate so much of my time these days. I beta read four authors, whilst having two ongoing stories, and another one that I only just finished.
But I enjoy it, so never mind! :D

I'm really looking forward to the DVD Release of "Twilight" - Kellan Lutz is my favourite in this, although Robert Pattinson is nice too I suppose, in an overtly-chiselled jaw, metrosexual kind of way.

I'm usually found on either my new twitter profile, twitter.com/MaddyGibney or else try the lovely vampire knight forum, vk.onnacafe.com

Anyway, enough chitchat, and back to work!
