delga: ([Who] geek out)
[personal profile] delga

So, have been spreading various pieces of fandom love. This also includes finding more Janeway/Chakotay fans on my flist! *flails* I'm so happy.

Right now, though, I'm listening to some lectures on the Bible and on Western culture-- DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT. It's interesting! It is! It's also really useful because whilst my literary studies have an excellent founding in mythology (I am a mythology whore), I only know the Bible Basics (heh). But this is so cool! Myth of Gilgamesh! The goddess Ishta! The epic form! *geeks out*

Anyway, I've decided that if I listen to one lecture a day and then do my own geekish research, I'll learn lots this summer. I know. I'm so dull.

eta: And apparently grandiloquent is a word, the fuck?

Janeway/Chakotay! Oh man, that was my first ever ship, back in the day.

Good times, man, good times...before it all went horribly wrong, of course!

AND ANOTHER SHIPPER!

We are obviously multiplying like amoeba. Or something.

Heh. You're so cute when you geek out.

And yes, it is a word.

You're laughing, aren't you? Lolz.

It's a dumb word. Sigh. I'm so uppity about language.

That one really got you, didn't it? I think that randomly adding Z to plurals/verbs just emphasises my teh dumbness.

:) I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna do that language study. Shoot me now before I start making actual (as opposed to mental) notes.

I cannot help thinking that you're being ironic every time you do that lolz thing, now.

...you're going to anyway no matter what I say, aren't you? So, um, well, you know. ...I'll be over there now. I could wave pom-poms if you'd like me to.

Not always. It was sort of an irony thing to begin with and then it wasn't and then I was plain confused.

No! I sit on my hands! I sit on them!

Who doesn't love Janeway/Chakotay? Though I will admit a slight preference for Janeway/Seven. ;)

I have the opposite problem with my mythology studies. Religious school pounded in the Bible, and then non-religious school prompt forgot to teach mythology, in general.

I adore studying religions - I did a huge unit on Islam and Buddhism last year and it's amazing to see all the links between various religions, cultural traditions and mythology *is so very geeky. Is in fact so geeky that I am writing a piece on Jed Bartlet being a Slytherin and one wondering about the international relations system in Harry Potter*
