My name is Lara. I love Joy Division. I was born in Seattle, Washington, grew up in Kalispell, Montana (AKA HELL) and then moved to Melbourne Australia. I studied half a Bachelor of Fine Arts~Theatre Studies in University before switching to German so I could study abroad in Vienna. Hence, I have studied English, German and Latin at a University level.
I'll add anyone to my f-list if they ask, so feel free. I spend most of my time writing, talking about writing, or thinking about writing while watching Most Haunted or something Hugh Jackman or Dylan Moran related. Or singing. I love singing, and I'm actually good, which tends to help!
I have reactive hypoglycemia which means I feel sick pretty much 24/7. If you don't know what it is, look it up. But it can make me irritable and completely unaware of it, so if I'm being a bitch, I probably don't even KNOW. Just tell me to eat a sandwich.
I also have anxiety disorders and PTSD up the yinyang, which I'll talk about if you ask me. I'm pretty damn open with everything, though it tends to make people go "....wish I hadn't asked" and because I'm a freak I don't know how to censor myself. So I'll just blurt it out. Sometimes I rant about it, sometimes I don't. But don't be surprised if I make excuses not to see you. It's not you. It's me.
If you can handle it, then on with the show.

 MUSICAL! |

Stolen from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) keldaryth
Since all my music is either old, alternative, or in other languages GOOD LUCK WITH THIS! I have a feeling only a group of five people will be able to guess them ;)
* Put your music player on random.
* Post the first line from the first 32 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
* Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
* Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.
* Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
* Skip instrumentals, foreign language songs (Fuck you, I'm a German major!), and songs where the title is the first line.
( Come on, I DARE you )

SO in celebration of Peter day, Lara went crazy. Yeah I know, I was already there. ANYWAY, I created a community like...18886421 months ago to hold the NaNoWriMo I was going to write on Peter. But then I was like Eh. So I didn't do it. But this is better anyway. The community is ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) in_mea_veritas and I'm going to put lots of Peter tidbits in there, INCLUDING excerpts from the novel I AM writing. I'll post things that I need help with or opinions on, or just that I think are hilarious. I also have an index there for Peter's current in character backstory, so you can read that as well! Feel free to join! You can comment on any of the entires! In fact, I encourage it! Give me criticism, ideas...changes..anything!
If you want to comment to the Katherine Saga entires, since those are in the in character community, please do so on the index post of in_mea_veritas (or here...) instead of on the posts in darker_london
Now some links!
100 Things About Peter Kemp which is a massive list and even includes links to unlocked posts so you can read what the things mean!
The Katherine Saga Index which links to all the chapters. Watch a young Peter get manipulated, it's FUN! There's a new chapter today!
Aaaand an excerpt from the prolouge of his novel It's a rough draft, so excuse the shittiness! :D
Have fun, join if you want, comment away! And I promise much more in the weeks to come :D
EDIT: And special for my fellow roleplayers, today I start Peter's Plot of Doom which will have repurcussions for the rest of his life. YAYYYY! YAYYYYY! *cackles*

OMFG. Best badfic! quote EVER. It's from a trollfic I assume was written about Ron/Giant Squid of Harry Pooter (EDIT: AHHAHHAA THAT WAS A TYPO but I am leaving it...) fame, but I CANNOT STOP LAUGHING!!
Of course, as it would be revealed in eight years’ time, the unexplained deaths and mating habits that followed Ron everywhere he went from that time onwards, the spontaneous vomiting that unrelentingly followed a proffered bottle of butterbeer, not to mention the steady decline of his grades all pointed towards the dire incompetence of what had once been Professor McGonagall but had since become a hybrid monster: one part enigma, two parts homo-erotica and three parts former Lord of Hogwarts Lake, the giant squid (presumed deceased) stuffed into a Professor McGonagall suit.
By the time the authorities arrived the creature was already gone. All that remained in its office was a note:
Yes, it is true. I may be a sordid amalgamation of squid, homo-erotic lust and enigma, but I can see in the dark. (And live in freezing temperatures). You will not find me, you are too late. Your screams will echo into eternity as the shadows feast on your soul.
So begins my reign of terror. Find me in the future, I’ll be out hunting with the oh cursed child strapped to my thigh. Together we will destroy civilisation.
P.S. This note was written with ink from my secret place.
I MAKES NO SENSE, but honestly, that last line?! Pure idiotic brilliance.
Thank you, Dear babb_chronicles

Hey. It's Christmas and Christmas is a time for giving and lalala and alll that stuff, right? Well someone I know and trust works at CounterCrisis Northwest and they have a website you can donate money Here and she says they're low on funds. No one should be stranded in a situation like that, no matter what your position on abortion is. So if you have anything extra to give, they have a Paypal account and you'll get to know you helped. Even if it's only a little bit.

Once again, as I am only doing this because the lovely runner of the babb_chronicles journal is on a much needed vacation, I am pimping the site. It'll be back on Septemeber 9th, and it's hilarious. That is, it's hilarious if you enjoy laughing at how sad people who think they can write are. (I am not fooled, at least I KNOW I can't write ;))
These aren't half as funny as the Babb ones (mostly because I am more easily amused than most people ;)) But they'll do for now!
So, enjoy, and add babb_chronicles to your flists!
First Post Here
( Beware, Badfic Ahead! )
Ok that's as much scanning the badfic as I can stand for one day without getting a headache ;)
