Successful procrastination techniques and shameless fandom pimping.

Somehow I ended up with a girl from New Zealand sitting next to me. No, really. She's actually staying with a friend of mine for a couple of weeks, but said friend called me today, sounding rather desperate, going "OMG, Dani, I have this really urgent appointment and I have to go to Neumünster tonight, WHAT DO I DO WITH HER?" And because I'm such a nice person *coughs* and because it's a good reason to procrastinate my studying, she's now here.

And I had to figure something out to keep the two of us entertained, so I introduced her to DeRo, AS YOU DO WHEN YOU HAVE A VISITOR WHO CAME ALL AROUND THE WORLD. So I forced her to watch Gay Boys With Issues all day, with the pleasant but of course completely unintended side effect that I had to watch as well.

She pretended not to get the hype pretty convincingly, going "Uhm yeah, they're cute, but what's the point?" - until now. Now she's sitting next to me, pricking and tickling me to get me away for the computer, so she can continue watching. I guess it is true, there's no way to escape the charms of Fandom. And I enjoy corrupting people. :)

(On a different note, it's making me nervous and confusing me big time, to have someone watching me typing in English and noticing every single mistake I make, while refusing to just freakin' correct me, already.)

Cheers!
