Front Page, Ma!!
Time of Post: 10:03 PM(MT)
Current Gundam Mood:
I'm siiiiick! XP
I'm afraid I've caught a nasty cold today--or well, not a cold exactly, more of a sore throat/fever kinda thing. I'm dizzy, my throat is killing me, and I have a headache, but other than that, I'm peachy. I just got done playing games with my friend, my brother, and my brother's friend. We played Cranium and Hoopla. Tasha and I won Cranium but lost at Hoopla, so we're even.
Anyway, now that I've complained about my health, let's move on to more fun news! I submitted an article around 1AM last night, and when I came to check earlier, not only had it been approved, but it made the main page of TheOtaku! I was so surprised that I immediately called everyone who was currently at my house (Tasha and my mom) in to read comments with me. I honestly was worried about the thing being rejected as a cause of controversy, but it was accepted and, shock shock, I got mostly positive feedback. I'm so happy!!! ^______^
Anyway, I'll bet a lot of you are wondering what exactly I wrote on. . . well, it's a bit obvious, since it's something I like that's controversial. That's right, you guessed it: Yaoi. My article explored why exactly girls love yaoi so much, and like I said, I got mostly good responses. Of course, there were a couple of flames, but not nearly as many as I expected, so I'm content. Oddly enough, most of the flamers didn't even read the article, they just commented on the main page. Last I checked (about five minutes ago), I had eighteen comments on the main page and thirty-nine on the article itself. If you're interested, click here to read it. I don't expect everyone to read it, of course, since I know a lot of you don't care much for yaoi, but if you're interested in finding out the 'why' of girls loving yaoi, I suggest you go check it out. Thanks much! *hugs and drinks and candy/cookies for everyone to celebrate a debut in article writing*
Okay, now that shameless self-promotion is over, I want to tell you guys about the shirt I ordered today. Heheh, I guess we're still on the yaoi topic though (gomen to those who don't like it!) I got a baseball style shirt that says "Uke: Root for the underdog!" on it. *squeal* I love it sosososo much and can't wait to get it in the mail!! Here's a picture to inspire jealosy from my fellow yaoi fangirls:
Heehee, I wuvs it! ^_^
Oh, wait, wait, I have to go back to the article again for a moment because I have to say what my mom's reaction was. Remember how I said that I called her and my friend in to read comments with me? Yeah, well from the comments, she kinda got the gist of the article, but still wanted to read it. I was really embarassed and nervous, because she's only partially aware of my love for the yaoi genre--meaning she thinks Gravitation is the only one I like. Heheh, well she found out different! XD It was kinda funny, after she read it, she said to me "Well, I only have one thing to say; my little girl has grown up." XDXD Ha! I was laughing like a maniac because I was so relieved she wasn't mad at me. What followed that statement was a very in-depth disscussion on gay people and our views on the subject. My mom's official standing is that she's okay with it--actually works with several gay and lesbian people, on that matter--but that she'd rather not see it. She kinda squirms whenever I watch Gravitation, because the whole guyxguy thing weirds her out to no end. Ah well, at least she's not against me liking it, neh? ^_~
Alrightie, I'll stop babbling now.
Random Notebook Scan of the Day:
Ah, this one's kinda old and out of proportion, but I thought it was cute, and that the eyes turned out well.
Oyasumi! |
