I have somehow survived the week of doom. And Saturday would have been a really lovely day, had I not have to interact with my mother via emails. But I woke up today, and one of the first things I saw was THE lollipop, and I decided I will try to selectively forget the end of my yesterday.
I have my advent wreath! I want one more thing which is what is here called a Christmas rose, for both my flat and my work actually, but I’ll see if I actually manage to shed the money for that. ;__; OMG money. Right.
I managed to talk to my ♥ co-mod today, and it’s not like I had any doubt, but we are now gearing up for another round of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fic_the_faith! YAY! Sign-ups will start somewhere mid December and whoever participates will get their assignment only sometimes in January, so I think that is enough of time to kind of take a breather from exchanges . . .
Now, I was NOT going to do a wish-list for many reasons one of them being the fact I honestly don’t think I’ll get around to fulfilling much (or more like any) from others this December. You may call me a little selfish, but it might also have something to do with all the exchanges this year and that I plan to write more or less for myself only if I write in December. Which means, fluff, probably RyoDa, not much plot, easy, things none of you ladies craving plots are into. If I write . . . because I should be writing about Protocol 14 of ECHR and let me tell you that will take some time.
But then I keep thinking I want lots of things. I mean the material ones. Which none of you can fulfil obviously. Right now, I can only think of about half of the stuff I came up in the past two weeks. It has a lot to do with the fact I moved and lack things I had at home. Even if my family asked, I would probably go, “I don’t know what I want . . . anything is fine.” So this first wish list is in reality a list of things I’ll be saving up for from now on. If I manage to save up ever . . . And I figured it might cheer me up somehow making this list (don´t ask about the logic behind that), so I went for it.
1. Blender (basically I want one of these multifunction things that blends, makes whipped cream, and chops things . . . )
2. Kitchen scales. Come to think, normal body scale too would be nice.
3. One of those things you put under your PC, this or this among the choices. So when it is elsewhere than at my desk, it does not overheat
4. I have a sneaky suspicion my hair dryer will not live for much longer
5. Tons of books for work O.o
6. New phone. The Slovak one has died of low battery the other day and I can’t get it to start up properly
7. Full body length mirror
8. Lol theme for a dissertation thesis
9. Oh and the bag for my PC fell apart. So far I haven´t found anyone who would be willing to fix it ;__;
There was tons of more the other day but I forgot. Maybe that is kind of good.
Now on the fandom/fic front, it is much easier.
1. RyoDa
2. Ryoda long and totally romantic history fic
3. RyoDa, cheesy, snarky, sexy, any . . . RyoDa, preferably not AU
4. Oh wait. MARUDA!
5. RyoDa
6. RyoD . . . you know, right?
7. No really I read other pairings than RyoDa. >.>
8. I would love if decent amount of people participated in bothfic_the_faith and Valentine Ficolate exchange. And yes I am aware of the fact that KAT-TUN fandom seems pretty crazy at the moment and that if a person participates in that RyoDa exchange, she (he?) will probably get a very sucky fic in return.
9. Arashi PV that is interesting
10. Someone subbing KAT-TUN stuff
11. Whoever said this list was realistic?
12. A huge kick ass comment on our DOA. Yes I said it. I can be petty at times.
13. RyoDa
14. MaruDa
15. I give up.
Well that was easy. Now, to be serious. You people make me happy all year long. I suck most of it, and I am happy you tolerate me, so the biggest Christmas present for me will be if you keep being awesome pie as you are. And I demand that any of you that will get anywhere in 200 km radius of Brno will let me know, because chances are I will attempt to meet you.
Now, a little announcement. Since my landlord is kind of a douche at times, I might not have internet for a while starting December 1st. The old contract for this flat is ending, and he said he´d take care of it, but I haven’t heard anything about it ever since, and I got tired of writing him emails he won’t answer. I will still tweet random things like I am cold/pissed/hungry from work on occasions and I will abuse the internet there to at least check my email so if there is anything you want me to know, mail me! Or maybe he will surprise us. Have a good week!

Date: 2010-11-28 08:08 pm (UTC)i think if there's a specific clause and the mods adhere to it (which i'm sure you will), i would be more likely to sign up. i don't think any of the other participants (i'm thinking of my friends here) are nearly as butthurt about it as i am. xD i just don't want to pose a problem for you or gwynn in the assigning process, make my writer feel uncomfortable, or write something my recipient won't like because of her own views on it. i actually have yet to write kat-tun properly since *it* happened, and while i'm sure i could swing an au or just completely ignore it, idk if that would be enjoyable for me. these are my own issues and i hope you understand that it doesn't reflect on you, gwynn, or the exchange personally. ♥
as for ryoda, i was already thinking about doing it anyway, because i haven't written them for awhile and i'm an exchange whore. :Þ

Date: 2010-11-28 08:17 pm (UTC)Well, I cannot solve your side of the issue. As for the writer´s side of the story. By agreeing to write for an exchange, you agree to try and adhere to your recipients wishes and as much as mods try to match you all well, I think the writer should be aware of the fact she/he might need to venture out of their comfort zone a little, that they might to work a bit differently as usually. I might be strict in this but I believe you are responsible for your own choices (of entering such an event). That is what you are getting yourself into, or so I believe. I have gotten a big lesson on it recently when my recipients in recent exchanges matched me so so, but I said I´d do it and I still tried my best. The same would go for your writer that would have to count on you having a Jin clause the same way she does. On the other hand, you´d hardly got assigned to someone who would say they "like 5nin kattun much more and the group is better off without that jerk Jin."
As I said, I get the problem, it is why I expect the drop in numbers and the final decision is on you. And the last thing is me taking it personally. So really No worries!
Rofl I like exchange lovers :DDDDDD
