LJ REVIVAL FRIENDING MEME


YOU THERE, SITTING IN YOUR COMPUTER CHAIR. ARE YOU BORED? DO YOU WONDER WHERE THE REST OF YOUR F-LIST WENT? WERE YOU ON THE FIFTH REFRESH OF YOUR F-LIST JUST NOW? IS THIS THE ONLY NEW ENTRY YOU'RE SEEING IN THE PAST THREE HOURS?! Well, do I have a meme for YOU-- !!

That's right, a friending meme inspired by the fact that Livejournal is feeling kind of dead at the moment, and some life needs to be breathed into it. You know the friending meme drill, copy the form, fill it out, make new friends, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY! Pimp it! LIKE A POLAROID PICTURE!

Many thanks go to [livejournal.com profile] tumbly for writing up that awesome pimp text that has hopefully motivated you to click this link and participate in this meme (and thanks also to [livejournal.com profile] negation for writing these crazy codes).
FILL OUT


PIMP


Aww yeah let's do this thing! Get in or get gripped.

OOoh, you do Clow Card fortune telling? In high school for a demonstrative speech, I did that for the class. It was surprisingly popular.

I dabble in it, I suppose you could say. I've had a book of Clow Cards for years and wondered if it was possible to do that with them, and I just so happened to find a translation for the official fortune telling book. I'm not too great at it and have never done any readings for other people but I'm getting better. It's usually very soothing for me.

I grew up with my mom and grandma always doing tarot readings and so on, so I ended up really enjoying the idea of the clow cards. I do still do readings just to relax, too. It is soothing. Do you still have your translation? I used to have one but that was two computers ago.

Oh that's cool! My family's definitely not into stuff like that, but I have friends who are a little bit, when we were about 15 - 16 we were all pretty into tarot. But I've just always had an interest in mysticism, magic, the supernatural, what have you, so I'm naturally attracted to such things. Clow Cards are especially nice since they combine that interest with my interest in anime.

You can download it right here (http://clowcard.wordpress.com/), actually!

Oh me too, definitely. I've always loved this stuff and I find it so interesting. I like ghosts and things, too. I used to watch so many shows about them, haha.

And oooh, thank you! I've looked forever.

It seems we have some similar interests, if you wanna be friends?

No problem! :) And sure, I'd love to be friends.
