Here and Now — A Friendzy

[sound_of_silence]

I don't know about you, but lately I've been bored by the redundancy of friending memes. It feels like I'm always being asked the same things — favourite books/movies/games/fandoms, things I post about, things I look for in friends... This is all well and good, I don't have anything against those questions — I've found so many good LJ-friends through them, why would I? — but I find myself hoping to be asked something new at every friendzy I participate in.
And then I thought, why not organize one myself?
So here I am, with an attempt at an original friending meme! Share, comment, find friends, you know the drill!


<b>The Basics (Can't Really Change Them)</b><br /><i>Name:</i> <br /><i>Age:</i> <br /><i>Location:</i> <br /><br /><b>Currently, what are you...</b><br /><i>... Reading?</i> <br /><i>... Watching?</i> <br /><i>... Listening to?</i> <br /><i>... Playing?</i> <br /><i>... Working on (job-wise and/or leisure-wise)?</i> <br /><i>... Looking forward to?</i> <br /><i>... Worried/concerned/annoyed about?</i> <br /><br /><b>What were your last three LJ entries about and when did you post them?</b><br /><br /><b>Anything else?</b>


The more, the merrier:

(But you'll still find friends, hopefully!)</center><br /><br />

Oh, I have Iron Widow on my list and am wary exactly because it's YA (there's a limit to how much YA I can stomach, and I think it's also 1st person pov?).

Yeah, and it wasn't even the first person pov that killed it for me, it was the ever stacking love interests and sudden cliffhanger ending to make it first in a series.

That said, if you go in expecting a fun YA romp, it's a perfectly good one.

Hm, I think that's a bit too much YA for me at the moment. The 1st person pov was already a big no go for me... Thanks for the pointers!

I shall circle you, as I scrolled over your DW and think we have a few things in common. Plus, I love general Scottishness.

Welcome!
