the power of my joy validates me

CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW SLEEP-DEPRIVED AND STUPIDLY HAPPY I AM RIGHT NOW? LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT.

HERE IS ONE REASON:

OKAY, LOOK, I DIDN'T WANT TO SHIP THE HAWAII FIVE-0 RPS. I STILL DON'T WANT TO SHIP THE RPS BUT-- BUT JUST LOOK. LOOK AT HOW RIDICULOUSLY CUTE THEY ARE, WHAT IS THIS. I love it when people get along like this and can jokingly be totally mean to each other and encroach on each other's space so casually aslkdghkfdj. Adorable. ♥

moonythestrals: I hope the show told them to sit, like, couple-style
moonythestrals: wtf is this
meiface: hahaha
meiface: so much space on either side of them
moonythestrals: I mean, they had to have, but that's taking it a little far
moonythestrals: seriously?
moonythestrals: there is so much space
moonythestrals: so much sapce
moonythestrals: I mean I understand, like, the interviewer needs to be a little separate
moonythestrals: that's fine
moonythestrals: but
moonythestrals: ... really?

INTERVIEWER: Scott, what do you like most about working with Alex?
SCOTT: When the day's over. That's my favorite part of working with Alex--
ALEX: That's not true, you should see him light up in the morning when I walk into the make-up trailer. He lights up like a little child.

SCOTT: No, we got lucky, you know. You agree to do a show like this, you could end up with someone you don't like or you don't have good chemistry with. We-- The second I met him, I immediately decided I didn't like him. So.
INTERVIEWER: *laugh* Well you're acting very well because it seems like you guys like each other.
ALEX: That's acting right there. He fell in love when he met me.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat. WHAT. And it only gets increasingly more ridiculous from there, where Alex talks about being banished to his small island and Scott hits the arm of his chair emphatically and says, "Which is what I am hoping for!" And Alex immediately shakes his head in denial: "That's not true, that's not true, you love me."

IS THIS CHARACTER BLEED OR WHAT? WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING.



...this is them "in-character" btw. If you need a comparison. This is not a fanvid. This is an official CBS promo. I can't even deal with this.

moonythestrals: ......
moonythestrals: ...................................................................................................
meiface: uh huh
moonythestrals: .................................................
moonythestrals: .........................
meiface: yup
moonythestrals: ......................................................................................
moonythestrals: ................................................................................................................
meiface: there is a slash fangirl in that promo team for sure
moonythestrals: ..............................................................................
moonythestrals: UH
moonythestrals: WHAT
moonythestrals: WHAT


AND THEN OTHER THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY, VERY HAPPY:

- TOM HARDY, REESE WITHERSPOON, CHRIS PINE. THIS MEANS WAR, I NEED YOU IN MY LIFE THIS INSTANT. :(
- Harry/Draco fics, so many so many. H/D for liiiife.
- SUPER SHOW 2 DVD, I WILL WATCH YOU WHEN I AM NOT DEAD.
- Alex O'Loughlin on Ellen

- ETA: H50 1.10 PREVIEW CLIP WITH DANNY'S EX-WIFE AHHHH AHH IS IT MONDAY YET, SO MUCH ANTICIPATION.

Happy-making things:
- watching Secret Garden
- plans to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender during Thanksgiving w/ my family
- TOM HARDY & REESE WITHERSPOON - THEY LOOK SO CUTE TOGETHER :"D
- TODAY IS FRIDAY (but I have a lot of work to do later so maybe not so happy, cough)
- GOOD FOOD TO EAT (e.g., kimchi jjigae for dinner last night)

[meiface.livejournal.com]

I APPROVE OF ALL CAPS. IT DENOTES HAPPINESS AND EXCITEMENT.

mmmmmm kimchi jjigae, how delicious. :D ♥ I am just alsdkghdjf over everything and eee how cute, plans to watch ATLA with your family. I hope you still get some weekend time off despite the lots of work!

[ludicmelody.livejournal.com]

Happy things:
- getting back into fandoms
- reading fics/Good Omens
- baking
- (the obvious) great marks
- Reading about friends' lives that I haven't talked to in ages (catching up with friends I lost contact with)
- Shopping/ looking for items to buy/make for people's Christmas presents
- talking to boyfriend Now I only wish he'd come visit instead of me always going...

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Your happy things sound awesome! Good Omens is always a love.

What are you baking? Delicious things, hopefully. ♥

Awww boyfriend, aww. I hope you guys are happy together!

[moleskinned.livejournal.com]

HI, I WILL JUST BE HERE BEING HAPPY AT YOUR HAPPINESS, BEING HAPPY AT FANDOM/LOVE/LIFE/EVERYTHING.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

HI, DID YOU SEE HP7?

HI, LET EVERYONE BE HAPPY. THOUGH POSSIBLY I ALSO NEED MORE SLEEP.

[moleskinned.livejournal.com]

seeing it on the weekend! this is only the 2nd of the movies i haven't seen at midnight with other fans! BUT I JUST LIKE. WAH. SLEEP. I NEEDED SLEEP. But i have been gleefully reading reaction posts and they have been SO HAPPY, I LOVE IT WHEN EVERYONE IS HAPPY :D

also, seriously, those interviews. I have a feeling this is going to rapidly become one of those series that ratchets up the UST so much that it quickly loses the effect and just becomes kind of insulting (because I cannot see CBS ever being the network to make "gay main characters" happen, you know)--but I'm really enjoying it. And I'm really so happy at the treatment of Kono and Chin, and loving how many Asian and Asian-Pacific actors are gracing the screen. and DANNY AND STEVE ARE REALLY CUTE.

I WANT THIS MEANS WAR TO BE OUT, LIKE, TOMORROW. I CAN'T EVEN COPE WITH HOW THAT GUN IS TEN FEET TALLER THAN T-HARD AND HE'S JUST HOLDING IT ALL LIKE, YEAH, THIS IS WHAT BADASS LOOKS LIKE, WHAT ABOUT IT?

GO TO SLEEP, MISS MEI.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

I WENT TO SLEEP, TY. I slept forever. And now I'm all disoriented upon waking but mmm still so much happy. :)

I think I am trying to eke out the last of the fandom experience I can, doing these midnight showings. But it was hard to trade in sleep for it because sleep is amazing and your choice to sleep was a wise one! The movie was lovely. Oh HP, I will never leave you!

alskdhg as for H50, I really have enjoyed how they've been handling it so far because there is actual growing developments between Steve/Danny (and Danny/Chin and Steve/Chin and Danny/Kono and Steve/Kono! :D) so I would hate for it all to become OTT and more of a go-to in-joke than about a genuine bond. I dream of the day network TV will be able to give us gay main characters without batting a second lash but, erk, I guess Asian main characters is kind of already a huge step. Not that I am complaining on that front!

YES RE EVERYTHING ABOUT T-HARD, ALWAYS XX

[cherrybina.livejournal.com]

HI MEI HI :D I am happy happy today and here is why:

+ TOM HARDY ASDFGHJKLL ♥
+ Tom and Reese being ridic adorable together.
+ Memories of JGL's delightful face and perfect ass still fresh in my mind
+ I am wearing a polka dot dress and one of my favorite pair of shoes and I feel FABULOUS
+ date night with the boy. MEXICAN FOOD HERE I COME :D

♥!!

[meiface.livejournal.com]

THOSE ARE ALL GREAT REASONS TO BE HAPPY. Oooh polka dot dress, tell me more. I've always thought they were super cute and yet have never found one for myself.

TOM REESE JGL, SO MANY HAPPY THINGS.

And also food, because delicious food always warrants happiness. Eat wellll, have fun with your boy! ♥

[cherrybina.livejournal.com]

I have a bunch of polka dot dresses because they make me happy :D This one is actually more like a pattern of dots as opposed to regular polka dots. IDK IF THAT MAKES ANY SENSE. MAYBE I WILL JUST SHOW YOU A PIC INSTEAD.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Yes pictures, pictures! I think I know what you mean but ALWAYS PICTURES IS THE ANSWER.

[emeraldcrystal.livejournal.com]

HAPPY THINGS:
-H50!!!! I actually thought it was Monday for a second when I saw your H50 stuff in this post.
-no more lab reports this term! (though one more essay to write up)
-Merlin tomorrow!
-your future H50 post!

Not-so happy things:
-I left my earphones at home so I cant rewatch those vids right now :(

Have fun on your break!

[meiface.livejournal.com]

hahaha no, it is Friday and hopefully it means a weekend full of good things! I love how H50 has made me actually look forward to Mondays now though. NEW EPISODE YES PLEASE. I am basically going to fangirl forever.

Oh nooo, rewatch the vids later, THEY ARE SO RIDICULOUS. I just. I don't even know what to do with them. I love friendships where you can be mean to each other and that's just so asldghdkjf so cute. :D :D :D Seriously though, I think they are character bleeding.

[emeraldcrystal.livejournal.com]

Yes, I can't believe I look forward to Mondays now! Once half-season finale is over though, I'll be back to dreading Mondays.

Yes! And on Ellen, Alex joked about Daniel going on welfare, lol! The entire cast seems to be close. Although, Alex and Scott, yeah, character bleeding... or, you know, love. ♥

[meiface.livejournal.com]

ahh I hate the mid-season break. When is that, do you know? And when will new episodes resume next year? I'll be in Singapore and I don't think they get it livve akdhsfjd ;__; Must get mmy hands on downloads.

Eee yes, I love that the entire cast is close! :D It is much more fun to shoot a series when you're with friends, I'm sure.

[emeraldcrystal.livejournal.com]

I have no idea when the break will be, but I'm guessing first week of December... which means 3 more weeks of it! I think ev0.in usually has shows up pretty fast so if you can access the website in Singapore you can probably download right after it airs. The LJ television comm is actually pretty slow about getting H50 uploads.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

ooooooh thank you for that! I will bookmark it. :) and actually just get a few friends in SG right now to check if they can access it - shouldn't be a problem!

[jibrailis.livejournal.com]

I JUST FINISHED WATCHING THE TOP CHEF FINALE. EEEEEEEE.

I ate a huge white chocolate and macadamia nut cookie today, I am about to meet up with a bunch of new friends to see HP, and my mother is visiting me tomorrow and bringing me groceries. This weekend is going to ROCK.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

WASN'T IT A GOOD RESULT? SLKDHGF AFTER ALL THAT TENSION. I AM HAPPY.

And I think you are gone now because I took a long loonngg nap, but yay for many good things happening to you this weekend! you deserve them all, bb. ENJOY HP7 AND WE SHALL FLAIL TOGETHER LATER. ♥

YIGIT. ♥

My roommate and I jumped up and down in our living room screaming and flailing for a full minute when he won. That is how much I love him.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

SERIOUSLY HE IS ADORABLE AND SUCH A GOOD CHEF. Honestly I would've been pissed if either Danielle or Morgan had won haha so this result was the best. ♥ He has been consistently awesome since the beginning and also not a douchebag. Yaaaay.

[dumbimps.livejournal.com]

Is it too late to mention that your post was the last push for me to actually check out H50? I am so happy I did, thank you *___*♥

[meiface.livejournal.com]

IT'S NEVER TOO LATE. This comment made me so hand-flappy excited. I have SO MANY THOUGHTS and SO MANY FEELINGS about this show and basically I want everyone else to love it too haha. ♥
