What not to say to your childhood idol.


The day I met Tom Felton


The awkward tale from meeting one of my favourite actors in 2011 & what not to say when meeting your idol.
I'm so glad my family & best friends weren't there. I swear it was a conspiracy against me. If only I could blame intoxication.

Tom Felton

Better known for his role as Draco Malfoy

How am I expected to think clearly with him standing beside me?I recently had a once in a lifetime opportunity; a chance to meet Tom Felton.. and my mother would be the first to tell you I have been in love with him since I was about 6.

I was absolutely mortified the day I asked him if he liked bowling. I'd given myself a pep-talk for the past month so as not to embarrass myself. Long story short - I was at a convention with him and the camera equipment broke. While they were trying to fix it we stood there in an uncomfortable silence. I panicked.. The words were blurted out before I could stop them. I wanted to be witty and seductive.

My friend was the photographer & he was in hysterics. Tom was a good sport. After being seated in the front row for the Q&A by one of my other friends and having to look him in the eyes as he asked if there were any further questions - and then bailing.. I was so depressed that I didn't take the chance. Once we'd finally left the auditorium , he ran into me again. I got a quick hug and while everyone stared at us he told me that he did like bowling.

This just goes to show: I should not be left to my own devices with people I find attractive. I think he was just relieved I didn't ask him about Harry Potter.

More things you should not say to a celebrity or your idol (thankfully I haven't said any of these):

- I'm going to be visiting (current place they live) this weekend, can I have your number to crash at your place?
- What cup size are you/ is your mother/daughter?
- Boxers or briefs?
- Why don't you grow a moustache?
- Are you a scruncher or a folder?
- Can I have some of your hair for my collection?

Welcome back Day9!

So I'm super excited. Day[9] is back! He's such a hottie! I don't mind putting that out on the internet. I would love to meet him & wouldn't hesitate to do weird, kinky things to/with him.


This Funday Monday is going to be amazing! Please excuse me while I nerd out everywhere.
I'm a closet nerd.
It's to be Zerg, use neural parasite on your opponent to build an army & use it to kill him. AMAZING!



I do understand that most people will have no idea what I am on about. The game is SC2 - Starcraft 2. If you don't know about it - seriously... give it a shot. It's not that bad! You could try the GSL or just pull up a Day[9] video. After a while, I can guarantee you will get something out of it. You may enjoy it, you may hate it.. but I can honestly say these guys are entertaining.


Queen of Blades

I've started planning for Dreamhack! I'm really excited for the LAN - it will be my first one... and it's the biggest in the world - I think. It's definitely up there anyway. Fast internet connection. E-Celebrities.

I'm hoping Artosis, Tasteless, Athene or Day[9] will be there. Such cuties.





Oh he's such a cutie! (This is an old photo)
Now I'm pretty sure I will make a fool out of myself.. if history is anything to go by it's almost a given that I'm going to make a fool out of myself.

You can check some matches out on GOMTV or day9.tv   or blip.tv/day9tv

There are some interesting stories in between games. Loads of in jokes which you can pick up fairly easily.

I should mention that SC2 is quite popular in Korea.

I'm typing this while watching the FUNDAY MONDAY... and I have to say I am so glad this is back. He is looking well-rested & definitely giving this video his all.

I can't wait to get back in to my YouTube channel & updating fairly frequently.
It's so much fun!

I will definitely link it when I get it up & running again.

Addicted?

Cats eye glasses. Newly purchased.
So I think I have an addiction. Scratch that, I'm pretty sure I have an addiction.

No, not to shoes like a typical girl would.

I realized today I own 5 pairs of sunglasses (1 of them is prescription).  At this very point in time, I know that if anyone walked over to my bag they would find 4 different pairs of sunnies in there - and the prescription pair wouldn't be one of them. (They live in my car).

I only realized this today... at the Abbey Museum Medieval Festival. It was raining & to keep the water out of my friend's eyes, I offered a pair of glasses and before I knew it I had pulled out 3 pairs of sunnies for her to choose from.

Before sunglasses, it was headbands (and still is some days).
I remember waking up from an evening of good food & great company strolling the night markets in the city, only to sit up in bed surrounded by at least 5 newly purchased headbands. Quite comical really. If my life were more along the lines of a teenage comedy - they would have rewritten them to be condom wrappers, pizza boxes, porno mags or empty alcohol bottles and I'd have a pounding headache.

Thankfully, my life doesn't resemble that aspect of Hollywood.

So the Medieval festival was pretty good. Tickets were approx. $25 for an adult. The only event you had to pay for inside was the jousting (which had unfortunately sold out first thing that morning)... but that was only $2 a seat. Not bad. Food was standard exhibition price.. and covered everything from mini Dutch pancakes, to flammkuchen (which is like a little woodfire pizza), hamburgers, stew & dumplings, lamb shanks etc.

Many people were dressed up in olde time wear, others were just happy to have a reason to cosplay - I saw many Naruto characters running around & even Etzio (Assassin's Creed).

Tried some spiced mead & even got to drink out of my mates "drinking horn". I wanted my own Last Drinks horn, but couldn't bring myself to buy it (especially after realizing how many sunglasses I own). I wanted the horn, a viking helmet or an Arctic Fox hat (white furry hat).. but alas... maybe next time.

Quite a few people there. Met up with some friends I haven't seen in about a year. Really glad I caught up with them before heading overseas. (Countdown update for those of you playing along at home: 2 months to go).

Also went for my Biometrics appointment yesterday (Friday). The guy was nice & it was really interesting to see the security side of things. Fingerprints were taken but no retina scan - DAMN!

So far a productive weekend & I still have one more day to go! YES! I love when that happens.
