Sorry, nobody had any idea what all that was about, did ya? Never mind, I just couldn't resist.
Why do people say night falls? Looks like its dark purple tendrils are creeping up across the sky to me...
Watch the dying day
Blushing in the sky...

Your past life diagnosis:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation. You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Central India around the year 1850. Your profession was that of a philosopher and thinker.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
Timid, constrained, quiet person. You had creative talents, which waited until this life to be liberated. Sometimes your environment considered you strange.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your main task is to make the world more beautiful. Physical and spiritual deserts are just waiting for your touch. Keep smiling!

| Chris, actually Alan doesn't drop his robes in Dogma, he just drops his pants. *grins maniacally* (Is that Rickman movie marathon still on?) And when I said Snape overkill, I meant for people other than the 2 of us. LOL...

The Goddess Death: Dark, morbid, appropriately represented by the color black and the element water. Death is reserved, intellectual, introspective. Rarely does she do anything requiring a lot of energy or display of emotion-- but when she does, anyone within a few planes would do well to duck and cover.
Which Goddess Owns You?
brought to you by Quizilla
I own myself, thank you very much. (Sudden image of a 12-year old Severus Snape shouting "I'm MINE!") Although I wouldn't say no to actually being the Goddess of Death...
Artemis - Goddess of The Wild, You love all animals and find them to be better friends then people. You are a healer and protector to all wild things. You have a hard time finishing projects you start because there just isn't enough time to do everything you want to do. You are a protector of your family and wild at heart.
What Type of Goddess are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
| Chris & Aingeal: Thank you for the reviews! Now I feel much better. =) *goes back to typing Chapter 6*
I noticed those quotes from fanfic that Chris has on her blog, quite amusing. =) Transfiguration classes sound like a good idea, but I can never think up silly enough things to get transfigured. (Speaking of which, what purpose does it serve exactly, changing a hedgehog into a pincushion or a bird into a goblet?) Snape-Hamster story was WAFFy but sweet. Awww...*ducks under table to avoid death glare from Snape on desktop*
And Chris, you're another self-depreciating one. Your story is beautiful! I'd never be able to write something like that. Go post it somewhere instead of letting it wallow somewhere in your hard disk! Loved the new layout, btw.

You're going to Australia? I think Sherly mentioned something about it. Have fun, and stop worrying! Honestly, you are such a worry wart. =) What will come will come, no use worrying...plus I'm willing to bet you have nothing to worry about at all. You were studying like there was no tomorrow back then, remember? *claps Claire reassuringly on her back* Chill.
Speaking of the Singapore arts scene, there's the Singapore Short Story Project tonight on Arts Central. I like that story about the medical student, but I haven't been able to catch the credits fast enough to see who wrote it. I have a feeling it's probably Alfian anyway. What I find very annoying is the way they seem to think the way to artistic is to chop the stories into bits, then mix well into a jumble in disconcerting snipets. *scowls* If they think un-understandable = artistic, they've got another think coming. People might think we Singaporeans don't understand the meaning of coherent.
| A holler back to Chris:Young Snape with a hamster in his hands--dead or alive? Send it over! And slash Shakespeare?! Well for all we know Shakespeare might have been gay... And let's try making butter beer during the PJ party! *dodges knives and heavy books thrown her way by anybody who disagrees*
Thanks for the review! Glad you liked the new sweets. Can't wait to see your full review...and I won't mind if you have any criticisms to make, you know. =) Someone told me that my OC is a MS...hmm...not very sure about how she comes across in the first 5 chapters since I've mostly put the anti-MS stuff later in the story. Oh well...

Joe the power-hungry pilot fish: "I believe we have acquired the power of speech! Can you feel it? Can you feel the power?"
And believe me, when you hear him sing his villainous "Intelligence" song, you can feel the power.
Anyway, check out this story Twelve Again, I found it pretty interesting...it's a Snape story, not exactly OOC. Voldemort forces him to drink a potion that turns him into a 12 year-old after he finds out Snape is a spy. Unfortunately for Snape, the potion also erases all his memories after he turned 12.
| Chris: The Cell Block Tango was funny. =D Erm...LotR Extended DVD?! You'll have to show it to me then... And yes, I was best friends with the 2 bullies in my primary school days...kinda like my own personal Crabbe and Goyle, only they weren't stupid. And you wonder why I'm a Slytherin and a Draco Malfoy. Actually they were friends with me because I was the only one who didn't scream and run away like a girl when they brought their pet bull-frogs to school and I fought back when people picked on me. Though they weren't on very good terms with each other and they tried to stab each other with a penknife and a scissors once. Got them suspended for a couple of weeks, no serious injuries, thankfully.
Aingeal: Wow, thanks for that info on Wood Elves. I didn't realise you were a LotR fan? Or is it D&D? And I saw that thing about bats always flying left too. =) *getting strange ideas which includes building walls at the left of the opening of bat caves* I wonder if Batman drives his Batmobile to the left when he comes out to save Gotham City...

The quiz below is courtesy of Claire's blog. And which sunday are you talking about? 2/3/03 is it?
I Am A: Chaotic Good Elf Ranger Druid
Alignment:
Chaotic Good characters are independent types with a strong belief in the value of goodness. They have little use for governments and other forces of order, and will generally do their own things, without heed to such groups.
Race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.
Primary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.
Secondary Class:
Druids are a special variety of Cleric who serves the Earth, and can call upon the power in the earth to accomplish their goals. They tend to be somewhat fanatical about defending natural settings.
Deity:
Solonor Thelandria is the Chaotic Good elven god of archery and the hunt. He is also known as the Keen Eye, the Great Archer, and the Forest Hunter. His followers respect nature, and only hunt when needed, but are quick to defend the forest from intruders. Their favorite weapon is the bow, and they tend to be extremely talented with it. Solonor Thelandria's symbol is an arrow with green fletchings.
Find out What D&D Character Are You?, courtesy of
NeppyMan (e-mail)I'm an elf...again. Who's versed in archery, no less. Oh well, as long as I'm not some sissy nancy boy with bleached and re-bonded hair.
Basicly any Edward Hopper painting would represent you. You are a loner, and isolationalist. You are very intelegent but also very quiet. You prefer to keep to yourself and most of the time people can't really comprehend that. You may have a hard time trusting people and may have had a very hard childhood (bet the school bullies loved to pick on you).
Yourself as Art.

I was best friends with the bully. Duh. Touch me and you die.
The above quiz courtesy of Aingeal. Hope you're feeling better!

Congratulations! Your spirit animal is the proud and majestic wolf. You love being around others, and identify strongly with your pack. You understand the meaning of unity and are quick to defend your loved ones. You are strong and powerful and able to act quickly. No wonder people look to you for strength!
What is Your Spirit Animal?
brought to you by Quizilla
You are the Old Wolf of the Woods.
Even if they don't show it, almost everyone looks up to you. You are worthy of the respect of all around you, and as much as your friends want to depend on you, odds are you depend on them just as much.
What Animal Totem of Respect Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
You are the up and coming star of such nature programs as "Wolves in the Rockies" and "White Fang: The True Story." Congratulations, you're a werewolf.
What Kind of Were-Animal Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
I can just hear Peeves singing "loony loony Lupin" already... luckily Potions is my favourite subject. Can you imagine Snape's temper if he had to brew 2 wolfbane potions?
The Stag
You are protected by the spirit of the deer, swift of foot and of mind; you keep true to yourself while thinking of the good of the herd. You are an independant and free spirit, capaple of solemnity and of true bravery. As long as you stay honest with yourself the Stag will protect and serve you well. Your quote: "If I am walking with two other men, each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them, and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself."
What is your Inner Spirit Totem Animal?

| Sonnet CXXX
MY mistress� eyes are nothing like the sun
Coral is far more red than her lips� red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask�d, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound:
I grant I never saw a goddess go,�
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.
The above is the Shakespearean sonnet Alan Rickman decided to recite for the "When Love Speaks" CD. Apparently he likes it because it's one of the rudest, so he finds it very amusing. (Girls, repeat with me: Guys... *rolls eyes in exasperation*) Although the last 4 lines are arguably sweet.
| I just created this signature:
Yar, I know the slogan sucks. Sounds like I'm trying to tell people I am actually the syllable sounding like 'in' or something... Plus it's got a weird army camouflage background. I need to go do something about it...
From the "301 Ways To Annoy Snape" list that Chris sent me: Sacrifice small creatures and first-years in his name.
Now that's an idea... and my own additions:
302. Follow him around whimpering "Yes Master, we obeys you" in a Gollum-like way.
303. Converse with him in a long-winded and round-about manner like you've just stepped out of a Jane Austen novel. Address him as Colonel Brandon.
304. Wash, condition and blow dry his hair for him.
305. Refuse to put out his cloak when he's on fire, explaining fervently that you know he's the Herald of the Almighty.

Which wizard job suits YOU?
Oh I get to tame dragons. Yay me.
You are Draco! Draco Malfoy. You are the embodiment of a good Slytherin (good Slytherins? Oxymoron, anyone?) in so many ways. And you are a Malfoy. You were a Slytherin before Slytherin was a Slytherin, weren't you?
Which Slytherin Are YOU?

| I'm a Pansy. The bloom of thought. Thoughts are my haven. I prefer solitude and quiet places so I can ponder uninterrupted. What bloom are you? by Polly_Snodgrass |
hmm... aren't pansies supposed to represent shyness? I didn't know it meant pensive...
| Oh dear Chris, don't give me anymore ideas to torture Snape in my fanfic please... not that I would do anything to my favourite Potions Professor *struggles to look innocent* Though I must admit "Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" has a certain irony considering his preferred place of dwelling is in the dungeons.
And don't worry, the Lily/Harry thing wasn't too bad really... 'cause Harry got sent back to the past and he looked like James Potter remember? So Lily mistook him for James. And Narcissa is not fanon, it's mentioned once in Goblet of Fire, at the Quidditch World Cup.
Having fun with quizzes, aren't we? And believe it or not, I got Draco for the "Which Slytherin Are You?" quiz as well, haha... but today is Snape day, so I'm not posting that. And I got "marching off to war" Snape and Canon Snape too! But I thought that'd be Snape over-kill, so I decided better not... And I took that Animagus quiz you suggested. It was the one I was complaining about actually. =) Seems to be the only one on the net.
| I finally finished reading Sense and Sensibility... why in the world did Colonel Brandon choose that flighty melodramatic Marianne over her sensible, intelligent and level-headed sister Elinor? Guys...
I was reading about Alan Rickman's directorial debut, The Winter Guest. (It's also Sean Biggerstaff's big-screen debut, for you Oliver Wood fans out there.) Ok, a brief sypnosis:
Elspeth stubbornly picks her way across the icy streets of a coastal Scottish town to pay a visit to her daughter Frances. Frances, still paralyzed with grief following the death of her husband, does what many a daughter would do: she hides in the bathroom. Eventually, she emerges and the two women engage in the particular pas-de-deux of mothers and daughters. There is sarcasm and honesty, affectionate gestures and exasperated concern. At her mother's insistence, Thompson brings her camera on their walk on the windswept beach under the changeable winter sky. Photographing her mother, Frances sees Elspeth anew.
Juxtaposed against the interplay between Frances and Elspeth are the doings of three other pairs of local residents: Frances' son Alex and his new friend Nita; the old friends Lily and Chloe; and schoolboys Sam and Tom (Sean Biggerstaff). Each of the four pairs will come together, draw back and reunite in a different place in their relationship, their rhythms echoing the eternal retreat and advance of the ocean tide.
You can check out the trailer here. I have been looking all over for this movie, but the only place that remotely comes close is the National Library's super-protected research archive jealously guarded by psychopathic librarians. And it's not even the film, only the screen play. Just my luck that all the movies I want to watch are so incredibly hard to find in Singapore I'll probably get to watch it only if I sell my soul on eBay...and that'd be a bargain already.
And for those of you who are wondering why there is such an abundance of AR stuff today on my blog, today is Alan Rickman's birthday! *grins* Happy 57th, Alan!

You are Professor Severus Snape from 'Harry Potter'. You're very bitter, very smart, and your past has been one long nightmare. You teach Potions at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Although you can act like a right bastard sometimes, you've had a rough life, so its somewhat excusable. In the Harry Potter books, you are described as 'greasy-haired and hook-nosed'. Yeah right. Your hair is gorgeous, and so are you. cheer up.
Which of the illustrious Alan Rickman's characters are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
You are Superior!Snape- though largely a fanon invention, this quiz hails you as The True Snape [tm]. Your conversation largely consists of witty putdowns and sardonic banter. You are eloquent, intelligent, smooth as satin and twice as sexy. The fangirls & boys drool after you. You are often alone because, let's face it, most of the world simply can't measure up.
The fact that the Gryffindors hate your guts proves they're intellectually subnormal and don't realise that you hate everyone equally. History remembers you because your tongue was so sharp that you sliced yourself in two.

I signed up at this website called Magic Hogwarts. I got sorted to Slytherin (of course) but the classes there suck. The Astronomy assignment for this week is to research quasars and the Potions assignment was some asinine thing about researching potion preparing equipment and love potions. I thought Astronomy was about constellations! The only connection I have found between quasars and magic is some ridiculous claim that quasars emit metaphysical healing powers by some loony. If I wanted to learn about scientific stuff I would have joined Muggle Studies, right? And who in their right mind teaches about knives and chopping boards in Potions? And the worst thing is the Slytherin Common Room. They have cheerleader tryouts. Cheerleaders, for goodness sake! Such ridiculous, silly muggle things! And they have some stupid Slytherin Awards thing with categories like "Most Friendly Slytherin". I mean, is there even such a thing? And some foolish little Prefect snapped at me for suggesting we should have a "Meanest Slytherin" category, claiming there was no such thing. She hasn't met me, obviously. Maybe I should just transfer to Durmstrang.
Also, I'm desperately looking for the mp3 for Bach's Keyboard Concerto in G Minor (S 1058). Anybody who has the file, please owl me.

Chris: If you want to watch Dogma or Truly Madly Deeply, I have both. *grins insanely* Anybody up for a Alan Rickman fan session?
Yar, Harry doesn't seem to very well in school, does he? Except for Defense Against the Dark Arts of course. And you really have to admire Voldemort's timing... he seems to know how to attack after the exams are over. Looks like he understands the importance of having a good education--your studies should always come before saving the world. I think Volemort means "thief of death" in French. Sort of makes sense if you consider he's trying to attain immortality. Oh, and I read an interesting explanation for why the sword dropped out of the Sorting Hat in this facfic called The Thinking Cap Returns.
Personally I think Draco has a crush on Hermione, but I'm all for the Ron/Hermione pairing. What I can't really accept is the Ginny/Harry pairing 'cause I don't like Ginny very much. I guess that's why there are so many MS made for the sole purpose of making out with Harry and so many slash fics. And Chris, I think about every single person in the Potter Universe has been paired up with each other at some point or other... I've seen Lucius/Snape, Voldemort/Harry, Sirius/James, Lily/Voldemort, Lily/Harry, Dumbledore/Lupin, Lucius/Lockhart *choke gasp cough*... although (thankfully) I haven't seen any James/Harry or Lucius/Draco or anything similarly ick yet. You'll find the weirdest especially if they're not at fanfic.net.

About Mary Sues... I think the definition for "Mary Sue" is different for Harry Potter, so it's kinda hard to avoid. They have the bimbo Mary Sue who everybody loves, who just stands around and acts pretty and snogs Harry *yuck*. Then they have the evil Mary Sue whose sole purpose in life seems to be to screw up all the minds of the Gryffindors by getting sorted anywhere but Slytherin. And being generally enigmatic and detached and cool. I'm wondering if anything in between is also a Mary Sue, 'cause in that case I'll never win this. ^_^' I'm posting it on Fanfiction.net after I'm absolutely certain I've made her as un-Mary-Sue as possible by Chapter 5. Or maybe not. Aiyah... since I figured I'll be writing a Triology (ahem *cough cough*) I'll just let her be a bit Mary Sue-ish in the first part so I can at least introduce the character. =P
I heard about Jason playing Hook & Mr. Darling. Might not be that incredible you know... I bet boys think their girlfriend's father is the devil himself. =D

Oh, and by the way... all quizzes today courtesy of Chris. =)
| Chris: I thought of searching out "Robin Hood"... well, actually I have been looking for it for about the past 3 weeks or so. No luck though. The only copy I've seen so far is at HMV and it costs $43. I'm not that crazy. Yet. Have they been showing it recently on TV? *scowls at TV people to rival Snape* I watched it a long long time ago, but that was before I even knew who Alan Rickman was. All I remember was him threatening to disembowel Robin Hood with a spoon, or something to that effect. And I already have the Harry Potter VCD... both of them, actually. My sis found CoS in China. Some smart ass cut it from the DVD, but he missed out the scene where McGonagall tells them about the legend of CoS and he also missed out the Fawkes-burning-up scene. Incompetent fool.
Personally I can't understand the logic behind the "Snape as Harry's father" fics because it's so darned impossible. I think Snape would rather use Harry as potions ingredients. ^_^' I usually prefer the Snape-to-Harry's-rescue or something like that, because Snape gets to make a lot of nasty, biting remarks. And 'Mary Sue'-s are boring, I so agree. So far the most interesting one I've read is a Buffy cross-over. It's a Snape-Buffy pairing, but Snape and Angel get to get majorly pissed off with each other. =D

What Lord of the Rings engrish subtitle are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
Ha. Now that was funny.
| I watched "Catch Me If You Can" yesterday. It was pretty cool, and really funny. Even though I usually avoid DeCaprio movies like the plague, he was actually quite watchable in this one. Maybe he should do more of these comedy things with a bit of serious-haunted thingy thrown in, instead of those incredibly cliche and boring doomed-love-story leads he seems to have ended up in after "Romeo + Juliet". At least he wouldn't have to keep ending up very dead. Plus Tom Hanks was in it, and he was, as usual, fabulous. That outfit was quite reminiscent of "Road to Perdition", but he was kinda nerdy-goofy. =)
The theme at the starting reminded me of "Harry Potter" for some reason... until I realised it was by John Williams too. Duh.

The sky is very pretty today. This morning it was completely blue, with huge, fluffy white clouds suspended in it, and now it's still sort of blue, but with a little bit of pink just over the western horizon. The clouds have become sort of grey-blue though. Not that it's a bad thing. Hmm... is it just me or does the sun set later at the beginning of the year? It's quite fasciniating really...

Anyway, not in a terribly good mood today. Going out with people tires me to no end. I suppose I'm not really the kind of person who likes crowds or lots of company. It's amazing how many people there are on the streets even if it is a Monday. It's just crazy. Don't these people have a home to go to? And I believe the holiday starts on Wednesday, not on Tuesday. Ok, I don't have a life. But I'm enjoying my non-life very much all the same, thank you.

I'm getting quite grossed out by all those slash fics. Some sites are considerate enough to put an enormous "SLASH!" sign there, but some are not. And the real tragedy is that some of these people actually write quite well and have good story ideas. There was this one about Harry feeling depressed and useless after defeating Voldemort in his 7th year, and trying to commit suicide by jumping off the Astronomy tower. But who should save him but Professor Snape! Well, the first few chapters were quite ok, Snape trying to help Harry deal with his feeling of having out-lived his usefulness, deal with his guilt that quite a lot of people died, deal with his attempted suicide... then it all descended into things I don't ever intend to go anywhere near with a 100 mile pole. Not that I'm anti-homo or whatever, but... it's Harry Potter! It's nice clean PG stuff! *shudders*

Well, anyway, we were discussing school and about finally leaving it and everything. The 2 of them said they missed school for the comfortable routine, close proximity to the library (?!), and seeing all their friends everyday. Maybe it's just me and the fact that I'm weird, but I don't really miss school. Maybe not yet. I hated all that stupid routine. And I'm actually quite close to a public library. One thing I didn't like about the school library was you couldn't search for the books you wanted on the computer database on your own, and you had to ask the librarians to help. Bloody waste of time, if you ask me. And I'm really sorry guys, but I won't die if I don't see you people in the flesh all day. The net and all this blogging is good enough for me. (Ok fine, I'm a cold-hearted bitch, sorry.)
Is it a bad thing? I mean not getting attached to stuff. I love new places... if I stay in the same place for too long I get bored and start wanting out. Or I just bear with it until I can get the hell out of there. Same with schools. The first year or so I'm there, I love the place... everything about it is great. By the next year, everything about that place is BORING. I only get attached to the little nooks and crannies I discover where I can hide alone and do my thinking. But then, there are always new nooks and crannies to discover. Oh well...maybe I'm just fickle. =D

("my" here understood as the one I support, not the one I play for) It's a Welsh team, founded in 1203. It is also the only professional team in the entire UK which only hires witches! In one memorable match, the captain of the Heidelburg Harriers asked the Harpies team captain Glynnis Griffiths to marry him. Griffiths concussed him with her Cleepsweep 5. GIRL POWER!!!
I would have liked to support an Asian team, but the only one I know of is the Toyohashi Tengu (Toyohashi Goblins). The rest of Asia seems to prefer flying carpets to broomsticks... for more information, read Kennilworthy Whisp's Quidditch Through The Ages.

Augh! Slytherin!
*cowers* You're cunning, your sly, you know what you want and you'll bloody well get it. I can see it in your eyes...Or can I? You're good at looking all cute an innocent, but to quote MacBeth "Look like the innocent flower, but be the snake beneath it."
It's something like that anyway. You get my point.
Which Harry Potter House do you Belong to? (How *old* is this quiz?)
brought to you by Quizilla
Aha! There, see! It's still Slytherin, and I didn't cheat!
| I'm so sorry, I've gone completely quiz crazy today. Must be the stress of CNY. I HATE people (no offence)...I wish everybody would just go away and leave me to my peace and quiet (and computer, and books, and tea, and the little irritating voices in my head that tell me to go find something pointy to stake people with). Sigh... what I would give now to have a nice dark dungeon all to myself with icky potion ingredients and simmering cauldrons. Plus, I'd have an excuse to be mean and make the lives of everyone within a 20 metre radius of me miserable. Ok, strike the simmering cauldrons, let's just have bottles of potions cooling on the shelves...
See? the stupid black mood is back again. and I'm going cranky. must be because I went out of the house when it was all bright outside, and stupid me remembered the black, long sleeved shirt but forgot my sunglasses. All the over-exposure in the sun is getting to me now. Argh! plus I haven't woken up before noon since, I dunno, a month or so ago?
I need something.... anything...yes, perhaps another long talk with myself in the mirror...

to wipe out all lesser mortals with your desire
to rule them, and you might just be happy
locked away in your ivory tower, reading books
for eternity.

Snape.

The Count's Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
It started with a simple affection for counting and the terror it induced in others, didn't it? But now it's turned into a full-blown life-consuming chaotic nightmare of order, repetition, zealousness, and perfectionism. You used to be so grand, but now you find yourself obsessively worrying over the littlest things--like, maybe if you don't check the light switch at least once every two minutes, the electricity will go out (and damnit, you're a vampire--that shouldn't be a problem!), or maybe if you don't wash your hands until your seams are coming out, you'll get some fatal disease. Get yourself some treatment.
