Friends Only

[pearlrose]

Would you like to read my journal? Awesome. ^.^

However, please read my guidelines first.

1. If you comment, I will most likely friend you. I don't have any deep dark secrets I want to hide - I just ramble a lot. Sometimes the rambling leads to rather un-nice comments about whatever I'm annoyed with at the moment, hence the friends-only making of the journal. That and if my parents learn about this - I'd rather they NOT know about the fangirly things I do that they don't approve of, thankyouverymuch.

2. I like getting comments - however, I am reallyreally bad about returning them. I *am* getting better about this, 'cause it's not fair for me to lurk around on my Friends journals and want them to post in mine.

3. I ramble A LOT. I tend to gush over whatever fannish thing I'm into at the moment in here, and I often gripe about stupid things. The most inane things I'll keep private, but do not be surprised if I whine far more than is good for one person. I'm working on getting better at that, I SWEAR.

4. If I know you from an RP, Gaia Online, school, a message board, and find out that you happen to also have a LiveJournal, I will most likely stalk ask to friend you. I'm a rather shy person by nature, though, so I don't do this as much as I'd like.

5. I really do read EVERY SINGLE POST on my Friends page. I care, really. I'm also a very nosy extremely curious person by nature, so thwap me if I start to get too busybody-like, 'kay? ^_^

6. Defriending policy: I don't care for Friends-Cuts, so I don't do 'em. However, I do like being mutually friended with everyone on my friends list. So basically, if you defriend me, then I will defriend you. Otherwise, I (almost) never defriend anyone after I add them to my Friends List.

7. If I haven't scared you to death with all these warnings and stuff, and you STILL actually want to friend me, then PLEASE DO SO. New friends make me happy!

Addendums:
10.08.05 -
*Clarifying things a bit, now that my journal's been Friends-Only for over a year now.
01.17.06 -
*Added defriending policy to guidelines list.

Hi Jacki!

[dusty-angelic.livejournal.com]

Neh- I should have gotten around to this a while ago, but it has been ages since we've chatted. *looks around conspiratorily* You would know me as RavensFolly on Gaia or JaganshiShadow on AIM. We shall not speak of my ... other... identity because it's a secret, right? *winks third eye*

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

Ah! I'll be sure to add you.

And we do need to chat more, yes? ::pokes::

[abyss637.livejournal.com]

hey!! this was the isane/nemu from SHS...as u may have heard, SHS has closed it's doors. So what are Bleach fans like us to do? Well, me and my sister (jubei) have created a NEW BLEACH AU RP XDDD...we would like to invite u to apply! You did a great job as Sentarou (and Miyako frm flashback ^_-...we owned that school XD)

hope you'll come check us out ^_^ karakura_hs

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

You guys must really want people, huh?

I'll think about it, and see, okay?

[misake.livejournal.com]

hello, I'm Ashleyien's little sister (also on Gaia too). I would like to add you because from what I get from Ash, you're pretty cool.
... You're guidelines weren't scary... not for a second...

Me I write pretty random things, so things that annoy me, other things that amuse me, most of all fangirl-ness (Japanese Rock).

If you want to know anything about me, just ask and I'll most likely tell. ^.^

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

Heya! Pleased to meet you. ^^ Ashleyien's really sweet.

What's your Gaia name? I'll friend you there, too.

[sunja666.livejournal.com]

OOh, randomness leads to "un-nice comments," huh? Gotta love that.

I'm gonna outgeek you if it's the last thing I do!

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

I'm too blunt for my own good sometimes, I am afraid~

...good luck trying to outgeek!

[goulue.livejournal.com]

hi there! i was on the wrimowordwar AIM chat earlier (milleforti) and everyone tossed out their usernames so I'm friending people :3 because I love reading random livejournals! hehe If you don't want to friend me back or don't want me to have you friended that is totally fine xD just let me know - no hard feelings :D take care! and gl with nano

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

You beat me to it! 'Course I'll add you back. Welcome to the madness. I have cookies.

want to meet in NaNo-wise?

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Maggie...you don't know me, unless you read my posts on NaNo. I'm Bruce, aka brucedeuce. I posted a lot on the Geezer's Clubhouse forum (I'm now 57, but I'm not really a geezer!) I wondered, since you're 'fairly local', if you'd want to get together w/ other local Nano'ers for a form of TGIO party in Daytona. I'm just trying to gather names at this point. Our Municipal Liason didn't really do much as far as bringing us all together, so I'm trying to do something. Modoc16 and I are planning to meet @ B&N for a writerly chat sometime this month, if you're interested in that sort of thing, as well. Email me at novadude64@yahoo.com and let me know, okay?

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

I would be very interested! ^^

[deejay.livejournal.com]

It's me! =D

[kenkai-chan.livejournal.com]

I love reading ramblings. And prying into people's lives XD

And you're a Bleach fan too! Whee! All the more reason to ask if I can be friended :3

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

I was considering asking it if was alright to friend you myself. :D

I don't babble about Bleach too much these days -- Final Fantasy really HAS eaten my brain, but hiya! Welcome!

Hello, there! I talked with you very briefly on meredyd's journal about the difference between L'Engle and LeGuin. I read your profile page, and I appreciate the Final Fantasy and Disney geekery. May I add you?

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! I appreciate someone with a good kitty icon! <3

zomg, added you. Yay for cool new people! <3

[cowboyhat.livejournal.com]

Hey Maggie, this is justpurefiction from gleeforum and ARPfics from ff.net. I have too many user names, lol. Anyway, nanowrimo and Artina are my addictions for life, so... it looks like we've got stuff in common. Friends? :D

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

I love having Artie/Tina people on the list (As "Can't Touch This" comes on my playlist)--pleased to have you here. :)

[cannotfathom.livejournal.com]

Woah, okay still not used to any of this livejournal stuff.

I'm the hopelessly confused JustRelax on our little Artina thread in gleeforum.

Add?

(What's the protocol for these things? Do I add you first or do you add me or is there something else I'm missing? x.x")

[pearlrose86.livejournal.com]

I add! You can add back, because that makes me happy. My LJ is fairly basic, but I keep it locked because I'm job hunting and like to keep the dramaz~ to a minimum.
