| Friends Cut |
[Oct. 27th, 2007|04:56 am] |
So I never do this as I don't like to make it a public thing but I'm cutting enough people to make me want to say something. Because of time issues and feeling really overwhelmed with my Flist, I cut some people off my Flist. It really is NOT personal at all and I still like everyone I cut. But maybe our interests haven't quite matched up or we haven't developed any kind of personal connection or something like that. In any case I am really sorry about this, there was a lot of hard decisions for me to make but I felt I had to do it. You can defriend me or keep me friended, I don't mind either. And believe me, the last thing I want to do is make people feel bad about it so please don't.
If you still need any of my episode downloads, let me know and I will give you the links to all of them plus additional ones now or in the future if you want. If you really still want to be on my Flist then let me know. And my friending policy remains that it's always okay to defriend me with no hard feelings. If you're not interested in reading my posts, I totally understand and I don't mind if you cut me at all. |

There are so many posts I'm not going to have time to do before Vividcon. It's so frustrating sometimes to me that I can't just take all my thoughts and have something to convert them into writing. I will eventually post about many things including something about International Blog Against Raciscm week. It sucks that it's this week has I probably won't have time at Vividcon and I'm not going to be able to write a real post until probably the 14th. But I encourage everyone to write something if you'd like!
I don't want to say too much about the whole Livejournal/Six Apart debacle but everything you need to know about it is here. At the moment, I LOVE fandom and it's my community and I believe in the principles of it. I used to love Livejournal and believe in it because I loved the structure and thought it supported us but I guess I was wrong. I believe in freedom of speech and of art and even if LJ doesn't have to support that since it's a business, it should at least try to leave fictional characters alone. Most importantly they've handled it all wrong AGAIN, this time letting the uncertainty go on for five days and having their CEO or whoever make mean-spirited comments. Suspending people without warning is a humongous stupid move if you ask me. I think this random suspensions will probably keep going on and making me more and more angry at LJ so at this point I just hate them and am indifferent to them now. It's a wake up call that we do need our own fannish space and it seems unrealistic right now but I think in five years or so once we build up a fannish infrastructure somewhere else, we can do it. We also need to change the laws to get them to leave fictional art and writing alone. I'm anoel43 on GreatestJournal and anoel on InsaneJournal and all my info is up at Fandom 411 which I encourage everyone to add their LJ names and links up at. All my fanvids are also up at Fanworks Finder which I encourage everyone to add all their fannish stuff (fic, art, vids, meta) links to.
In much better news, VIVIDCON tomorrow!!! I can't believe it's finally here. It's so surreal. Seems like just yesterday I was saying 364 days until the next Pretzel Day next Vividcon and now I finally made it. I completed my goal of having a Premieres vid in although next year I'll be sure not to procrastinate on it and get it in early. My VVC goal is to try to speak a few times during the panels, possibly at Vid Review if I'm brave enough. I'm rooming with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif) noirrobin who is a Vividcon first timer but super nice and awesome and of course, loves vids so I hope everyone will be really welcoming to her! As I said, I'll be at the hotel around 11:30 AM tomorrow and will just welcome everyone and hang out with people until check in. I'm usually kind of introverted/shy but VVC makes me want to see people as much as possible so I'll try to be as social as I can. I don't have much in the way of lunch/dinner plans so I'm willing to eat with anyone. Hugs are always good, no need to ask and I truly can't wait to see everyone and talk with people again.
I'll see everyone in Chicago! OMG VIVIDCON!!! |

The title of this journal is Defying Gravity. There is a reason for this.
I have always wanted to fly. It is a deep desire of mine that I have a craving to fulfill. Unfortunately gravity has always stood in my way. But this goes beyond my physical self being in the air or not. Gravity is more of what is holding me down. It is what keeps me grounded to this concrete world rather than letting me stay in my preferred world, up in the world of possibilities, of imagination, of things which are not describable. Not only that but there is a feeling of flying, a feeling that is very intense and mystical that I love to experience. I want to delve into this world and enjoy its wonders. So I must be everything I am to defy gravity and become a soul who can truly fly. |
