new things I am doing

On livejournal:

--> [community profile] intoabar: Pick a character who walks into a bar, get assigned a random character from a fandom of your listing who they meet. Write a fic about it. Gen, het, fem... whatever. Signups are open. (Also on DW)

--> [profile] femslash_planet: I'm on team sweeps. Having a stupid amount of fun so far and all I've done is plan a project and do a wordsearch.

RP:

Playing as Bianca from Degrassi. Love me some conflicted feelings, and hello powerplay. (Yes, I ship her with Adam, and yes, I'd probably ship her with anyone, given the screen time. But not Alli. Bleh.)

IRL:

::crickets:: OH YEAH WE PLAYED OUR FIRST BOUT. IT WAS AWESOME AND WE LOST SO HARD BUT IT WAS THE BEST DAY EVER.

Well, my only knowledge of roller derby comes from seeing the trailer of Whip It (which I shall have to see some time. It looks kinda fab). Derby's not a big thing in the UK. It looks a lot of fun though :D

Whip it is a fun movie but they break nearly every rule in the game. You're better off watching games on derbynewsnetwork.com if you can get it to load on your computer.

Depending on your cable, the lesser ESPNs occasionally have derby stuff at, like, 2 am.

I'm largely cable free! I mostly still only watch the 5 main UK channels, and lots of DVDs. I'm still very intrigued by derby though, so I'll have to track some channels down online :)
