On the lonesome deathbed.

Fresher's Cold + Depressions + Short budget + Insomnia (and subsequent headache) = Not A Good State To Be.

I have never felt this depressed before. I really need to talk to someone, but there isn't anyone who seems to be able to listen. I do have good friends, but they are all in London/Liverpool/Newcastle/US and can't help me except with Facebook and MSN...

...at least I want my mobile phone crisis to be sorted.

Hilarious journal post by the Greatness Incarnate Neil Gaiman

Neil Gaiman, one of those extremely talented people whom I worship obssessively and excessively for their sheer genius, wrote this on his blog.

http://www.neilgaiman.com/journal/2007/10/walking-green-carpet.html

And the bit which made me laugh so hard was this...



"I'm going to tell you my favourite part of the evening, which was talking to Kate Magowan about Una (which is the part she plays in the film), and her calling over her husband to meet me, a husband who turned out to be John Simm, who interrupted my stumbling burbles of "ulp Life on Mars erk The Master" with his own starry-eyed "glunk The Sandman!" and pointed out that that meant he'd been a fan of mine for much longer than I'd been a fan of his so hahah and there you go."


Neil Gaiman is a wonder of this side of the galaxy, and John Simm is nothing short of a kickass acting genius, one of many wonderful acting genii in Britain! (And because he melted me right on spot in Life on Mars and Doctor Who, just like what he did to Neil Gaiman! XD)



As for me, I gurgle for them both glunk glunk glunk.

*happily foams over her mouth*

Test, test, tests....


Your Score: Outcast Genius


56 % Nerd, 65% Geek, 60% Dork




For The Record:



A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.



You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius.



Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).



Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius.



Congratulations!

Hmm, outcast genius...yeah, the 'outcast' bit definitely sounds like me. Maybe 'outcast, pervy, brain-addled and obsessive-compulsive fangirl' is more accurate :P
