The usual paranoia of finding out that certain acquaintances have magically found this place (not sure whose fault it is, but it doesn't matter now).
Better to be safe than sorry, in any case, and it's not like people other than those on my friends list that I'm fine with reading this thing actually read this thing, so it's no big change to the system. Oh, and since I'm reviving my public weblog (eventually), I figured this LJ's existence would be of more use as a private journal ^^;;
*points above* Longer explanation in reply to Mel's comment. You know the details, anyway... It was quite a pain to manually change every single entry to "friends only". But that's over and done with.
My day involved sleeping in, tiredness, maths comp, doing nothing in class and... now typing this here. Wonderfully invigorating stuff XD How was yours?
^^; Hi. You obviously don't know me... My name is Samantha, and I used to read your weblog 'from far away' and 'lace, lies, and puffy sleeves'... I thought I'd comment... I hope I don't seem to stalkerish. My weblog used to be Talkative Earwig, if that rings a bell. *scuttles away*
Why, hello, Samantha! In fact, I do remember you from your weblog and I enjoyed reading your entries. Typically I was too self-conscious to properly introduce myself then ^^; Oh dear, now I'm the only who sounds stalkerish *snickers*
A word of warning... my LJ is very different to my weblog (I suffer from a writing dichotomy, or something) and is full of poorly written school crap and depressed pseudo angst ^^; Ahem. Anyway, I will hop over and add you!
HELLO! Guess what, just snagged a LJ account, finally I can pry into other people's private lives. YAY GO ME! Gosh, feels like such a newbie... stupid ugly layouts. >< Anyhow, add me? ^^;;
i'm intimidated by the livejournal goodness that your journal possesses! anyway... i saw your post on add me and i thought, hey, this person looks cool. so i am adding you and hopefully you'll add me back!
Aw, thanks ;) JRM is so very pretty, 'specially in Gormenghast *nods*
The font is called 04b_24 (catchy, eh?) and you can download it at http://www.dsg4.com/04/extra/bitmap/ along with a nice collection of other pixel fonts. Hope that helps!
Anyway, love your interests list (and you like WoT, how could I resist?) *friends*
This is picoverse, I just got a fancy new livejournal, samdroid... Because simply deleting all my old entries would have been a pain. So I'm adding you, like woah.
Thank you for your kind words, and I've friended you back. Er... just be warned that my LJ entries tend to be more typically teenager-ish (for lack of a better word). I'm really not that rabid... honest! ;)
Yay! It's grand to meet a fellow WoT fan -- so you win a special prize (a secret stash of angreal, perhaps? :P) And yup, the BWB is a wonderful resource for AoL trivia.
Hello~! OMG people still use Livejournal IRL! xD Ahaha most of my entries are long, obsessive fandom ramblings about books/anime/fictional characters, but WHATEVER! It's not that much of a surprise. xD
Des! I don't know why I didn't have you LJ friended years before now, probably because I never used LJ back in the day...
You've probably already heard that Robert Jordan passed on :(...and, well, seeing as you're one of the most hardcore RJ fans I've ever known, I thought of you right away after hearing that, which got me to wondering where on earth you dishad any activity...appeared off too since it's been almost exactly a year since your domain's had any semblance of activity...
Oh, and, um. If it helps (if you remember), this is Leila. You might have known me as Bliss? Rhythm of a Rhapsody? Braintreason? Ringing any bells?
Anyway...yeah...I guess this is kind of like the family get-together at the funeral, it brings us all closer together. Even though we aren't family. But...yeah. O.o...
Wow, hello Leila! I do remember you from the good old days of the internet. ^^ Apologies for the late reply, I've been away from home and said internet for the past week (too much happening IRL means that poor LJ gets neglected -- don't want to think about how dusty a blog would get!). Anyway, it's great to hear from you!
The news about Robert Jordan's passing is terrible, his books have had such an impact on many of our lives that it still feels like a void. :\
Hello! My name is Nef, and I'm a WoT addict. xD After I found out about RJ's passing, I was feeling really depressed (I didn't even discover the goodness of Wheel of Time, until exactly almost a year ago) and I got into reading WoT fanfics. Anyways, I headed over to the wot_fanfic community through minviendha's link and I decided to check out on the members! I'm not the type to update too much... but I enjoy the benefits of having a LJ. =D
I'm also a huge Fullmetal Alchemist fan. Although I prefer the manga over the anime. Even though both are good, manga = love. <3
Hello there, Lea here. I cannot believe that I forgot about your journal (I just fished it out from the great Black Hole of my links ;) ) ; once upon a time I had been reading your weblog and I decided now that I clearly miss it (I doubt I made myself visible, as I am your average internet lurker) [Yes, I decide this just a minute ago, remembering my old, glorious internet days xD]. I hope you do not mind if I shamelessly add you :) ?
Hello Lea! So sorry for the late reply, but thanks for dropping by -- I remember you, and sometimes miss the world of weblogging! I've added you back, and hope you're going well. ^^
I smile and I offer you something to drink In the hopes that a taste will remind you That poison goes better with grenadine That deceit's always lovely with lime That bitterness can be so sweet When it's served in the right place and at the right time

And if you don't know who this is I will feel the urge to thwack you with Jen's thwacking stick at school tomorrow. You have been fairly warned.
... That stick looks mighty scary *friends*
And *windows* just for fun xD
And welcome to the nether realms of LJ! O ho ho, prying can be very fun indeed... *grin*
Okay, it's official, I must stop looking at my friend's friends lists. The icons pull me in. *sigh*
And for a completely inane question, what is that font called? It's the official font of icons everywhere, but I don't know what it's called.
(behold the icon-newbie fandork)

New names are fun, though I'm too lazy to actually go and get one.

Totally friended back. *grin*

You friended me firsts but I shall write a comment here too!
Squee! We can converse over LJ too!
I'm sure we have met at a UNSW filmsoc related events.
I saw on your Facebook profile that you had an LJ, and I decided it would be good to have more LJ friends.
My blog isn't private, so like check it out to make sure I'm not some kind of crazyish stalker...
*friends* And hope to see you around~!
*friends* XDD
Some may call me Nickbob .. but that's another story =P
But why Bob?
Why not Bob ;]p!?
