i actually have to go RIGHT NOW but i expect to see FROLICKING IN THE COMMENTS when i get back >:(

I like friending memes! I sort of get why a lot of people don't, I mean, there's something very public about them, and sometimes you end up friending weirdos and you have to deal with them for a couple of months until the unspoken grace period ends. But. Friending is kind of an awkward process and I love how friending memes steamlines it, creates an appropriate environment for asking in a way friends only entries never quite manage. Also they are fun! And I have always met great people through them. Also I just like them. In any case, I don't know about your friends, but mine keep complaining to me about not having enough of this type of friend or that type of friend and... this is how we used to fix that kind of problem! And it's been a long time since I've seen one floating around my part of lj.





So I am not totally sure that the 72 people I have friended is enough to like... properly power a friending meme, especially since lj is quiet-ish lately. But prove me wrong! Go forth, fill things out, respond to things, and please tell your friends (because even though I have great friends who can see this I ALREADY HAVE THEM FRIENDED, what do I get out of this?). I don't have a pre-prepared code for advertising but... you can see the entry link, and you all know better how you want to advertise that I know anyway.

........I AM SUCH A BUM, sorry, please still do my meme! Even though I didn't make graphics. Or think of a title. OR DO ANYTHING BESIDES THINK OF QUESTIONS.

Name, Age, Location: Catherine, 20, Montreal
Fandoms you're currently super into (or at least chatty about): Downton Abbey, The Good Wife, kpop, and also I'm pretty into Prime Suspect at the moment.
Old fandoms you will never be able to completely leave behind (the special ones, though, not your entire fandom history): Star Trek (Voyager, mostly) & The X-Files!
Your three very favorite celebrities: Gillian Anderson, Boa, aaaaaaaand... to be honest, probably Miley Cyrus, but idk
1-3 song(s) you're super into at the moment: Soft Shock (acoustic) - Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Shake it Out (Remix feat. the Weeknd) - Florence & the Machine, Sister Wife - Alex Winston
Hogwarts House you would fit best in: Slytherin, apparently (but a surprising amount of friends/family guessed Hufflepuff when I asked, sooo)
3-5 adjectives your mom/best friend/significant other/someone who loves you would use to describe you: Antisocial, embarrassing, neurotic, whiny.
Describe the last 10 lj entries you've made in less than 3 sentences: I LIKE POLLS A LOT and also pretty things and girl groups and word vomit, and I have feelings about Matthew and Mary ALL DAY EVERY DAY.
Things you like & do not like in lj friends: I like people who comment and post fairly frequently, or at least obviously make an effort, and I am big on responding to comments/having conversations so I like people who also like that. I also enjoy filling out polls and reading about other people's feelings about things, because I like it when people are enthusiastic/excited!! I like people who are not afraid of being embarrassing and LOVING THINGS even if they are kind of lame (especially if they are lame!) because I like to post about things that I LOVE but sometimes I get embarrassed about it! so I like to know I'm not being judged.
Anything else you'd like to add? SORRY I SOUND SO BORING

i have an abiding soft spot for miley cyrus. she seems surprisingly, idk, normal for someone who's been raised in the public eye. also my cousin's band ran into her in a thrift store in nashville!

she just seems really nice to me, like no matter what she's done she just doesn't seem like a mean spirited person, and i'm just so fond of her! she would probably be a super fun friend, haha. and that is so cool, i am jealous!!! it is like my life goal to see her in concert, not going to lie.

[identity profile] misters.livejournal.com 2011-10-12 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, exactly. and she's really mature, i think, i remember when "can't be tamed" (or possibly something else, idk) came out and everyone was talking about how ~slutty~ she was and she said something to the effect of LIKE I GIVE A FUCK??? anyway i am really awkward at this whole friending meme thing but uh, friends?

[identity profile] goldenmelisande.livejournal.com 2011-10-12 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
lol yes, I LOVE HER. and of course!! i was trying to figure out how to ask too but uh... obviously i failed.
