Well hai thar ^^

Seems like you've stumbled across my blog! Well, I guess I'll give you a little information about myself:

Name (the one to be used for this blog's purposes): Mattie
You could also call me UM, um-chan, or whatever nickname you have for me.

Age: 17

Gender: 1/7 Female, 6/7 Male

Birthday: 9/3

Obsessions: Hetalia, Coldplay, video games (Nintendo mostly), drawing, writing, roleplaying, Let's Plays

Have fun wandering through my blog! BUT WAIT! It's dangerous to go alone! Take this! (hands you a hockey stick) ^^

~Mattie

Look at all the times I've been on the front page! :D SO HAPPY

HEY! LISTEN! LOOK!

Mood: ZELDERR

~~~

This corridor's all twisted. :3

But seriously, I'd like opinions, please? Two issues to be brought to attention:

1. A review world? I'd really like to do a review world. I'd probably review music and video games, maybe the occasional book or movie. But is the review thing overused? Yea or nay?

2. A massive Hetalia x Nintendo crossover. I've seen massive crossovers before, and they're either really cool or really, really lame. So...do you guys think I have what it takes to pull it off? Or does the premise already scream LAME? Meh... I kinda just want Clive and Mattie to hang out...

Speaking of which, I'm saving my review of The Last Spector for when I decide whether or not to make this review world. Oh, and I realized that I left out a song on my Mylo Xyloto review...I forgot to move it to the playlist I made ^^; Poor U.F.O.... It was an okay song, I guess ^^; Haven't heard it in a while cuz IT WASN'T ON MY PLAYLIST CUZ I'M AN IDIOT.

Just got the Zora's Sapphire in Oot ^^ I had to stop though, cuz the 3DS screen gives me headaches...even though I don't play with the 3D on...cuz I CAN'T SEE IT...Stupid eye problems...

I love Coldplay, btw :3

Should I post on OotRH, or should I stop being such an rp whore and give someone else a turn? ...hmmm...

I seem to have lost a significant number of my DS games...I want to know where they went...I didn't finish Pokemon Black, and now I can't find it...

Alright, I'm off! But PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment on the two things I brought up? It'd make me feel loved! (puppy dog eyes)

Tata~!

Oh no...links...

So you can listen to all these songs here!

Spaceman by the Killers
Glass of Water by Coldplay
You Will Leave a Mark by A Silent Film

Don't Let It Break Your Heart by Coldplay
This is Your Life by the Killers
Don't Stop (Color on the Walls) by Foster the People

Apres Moi by Regina Spektor
Never There by Cake
Welcome Home by Coheed & Cambria

So...let's hope I didn't royally screw up there...I can't check the links yet ^^;

But yeah, I decided to try to find songs that describe my characters' (why do I keep treating Mattie like he's mine?) personalities at the moment. So yeah, Damien's...hard to describe? A mix of happy and depressed-ish, I guess...Iago's happy-go-lucky and having fun...and Mattie's a bit...snapped? ^^;

Hope you like the music ^^

Dress rehearsal today got me in a bad mood...I've just been nasty all day... XP

Cake is fun to sing along with ^^

Finished Professor Layton and the Last Specter yesterday! Forgot to mention it ^^; I'll have to write a review later--it was pretty good ^^ Working on OoT 3D now!

Right...I have a picture to upload...but I don't wanna!!

Okay, I need some opinions here: Hetalia x Nintendo crossover: Cool, or really really lame? Like REALLY lame? Cuz right now I'm stuck between those two...

Btw, like the new banner, guys? ^^

Alright, gonna go...maybe I'll actually sleep...or maybe I'll climb Death Mountain! >D

Tata~!

~Mattie

So...

Mood: Protective

~~~

Apparently I'm attracted to the lowlifes of society?

(grabs Zeph from Fey Winds and glomps him to death)

HE'S MINE. MINE GODDAMMIT and I don't care if you think he's worth less than the dirt on your shoes, he's still the most adorable thing ever. He just needs to gain a bit of self-confidence...

THAT'S IT. SELF-CONFIDENCE.

If you add the self esteems of Damien, Iago, and Mattie all together in a measuring cup, it still wouldn't reach the first line.

SO I'M ATTRACTED TO PEOPLE WITH LOW SELF-ESTEEM. GOT IT.

...then why am I dating the obnoxious asshole Brit with an ego the size of the solar system? ...hm.

Matthew: Provoke? Who's trying to provoke? I'm not trying to provoke anyone at all! (whistles innocently)

But yeah, I love Zeph. He reminds me of the homonculus or however you spell it from Dragon Rider! Oh, what was name? It began with a T...he was my favorite character, too!! God, haven't read that in forever...

ZEPH = TRUE LOVE AND I DON'T CARE IF YOU THINK DIFFERENTLY BECAUSE YOU, SIR, HAVE A WRONG OPINION. Okay okay I'm not THAT much of a fangirl ^^;

Well, I should probably get to bed...dress rehearsal tomorrow, hooray -_-

Tata~!

A REVELATION

Mood: Something or other

~~~

Alright, so I realized this kinda a while ago but I'm finally putting it out there because I like making sense of my life.

Prepare yourselves, my friends: I am NOT an anime nerd.

LE GASP. HOW DARE SHE?!

Yes, I really am not an anime nerd. I enjoy anime. I draw in anime style. I like reading manga. But I'm not an anime nerd. I will not go out of my way to watch a new series. I don't learn all the characters' names--in fact, I often have a whole ton of trouble with names. All the time. There is only one instance in my life where I have become obsessed with and really loved an anime, and if you don't know which one that is then you obviously are only recently finding me. ...AHEM (points to blog title and banner)

So while anime is cool and all, I've realized that I probably can't call myself an anime nerd. There are so many people who are much more devoted to anime than I am.

So why am I on this site? Am I really an otaku? Should I even dare show my face around here again?

WHY YES. FOR I KNOW WHAT KIND OF NERD I AM.

I'm a video game nerd :3

And mostly Nintendo video games, at that. Games with a story. Okami (Yeah not Nintendo but my favorite game ever so...). Paper Mario. Metroid. Legend of Zelda. Mother. Oh god, Mother. (dies) Pokemon! The first video game I ever beat was Pokemon Sapphire. Ah the memories...

But yeah. I may not be an anime nerd. But I put the same amount of fangirling and effort into my video games as most anime nerds put into their anime. For example, I will check out any song that has any relation to Koji Kondo. I'm well versed in all the LoZ split timeline theories (haven't checked out linears, though...gotta get on that).

Video Game Pictures on my Wall:

5 Okami (1 crossover)
8 Paper Mario
3 Pokemon (2 crossover)
2 Professor Layton
1 de Blob
11 Mother

That's a pretty big chunk, guys.

I've written tons of fanfiction for video games, and I've been writing (in my head--need to get this down on paper) quite a few crossovers with Hetalia recently...mostly Metroid Prime (er, space pirates? Pirate!Iggy? Both scare the crap out of me? I see connectiiiiiiooooooons....and Maple Tea <3). My iPod is full of video game soundtracks.

SO I AM AN OTAKU. :D

I just am taking the time to write this all out cuz most of the people I associate myself with are anime nerds as opposed to video game nerds and I wanna seem cool too...

ANYWAYS in other news...Happy American Thanksgiving to you Americans out there! Hope you stuffed yourself with some Sadiq ;p turkey and mashed potatoes unless you were visiting France undercover at the time and gave thanks for stuff and yeah. I CAN STILL MAKE HETALIA REFERENCES. Don't make me count the Hetalia pictures on my wall.

And I can finally listen to Christmas music now! I make myself hold out until Thanksgiving every year...TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA, HERE I COME.

Had a dream last night about Christmas shopping for broski, Artie, Kuma, and Russia-kun...I was buying them polar bear charms...But I woke up with that stupid "Fa-who-fores" Grinch song stuck in my head...

Ugh...I'm delirious...

Tata~!

~Mattie

YOU DIDN'T READ ME MY MIRANDA RIGHTS

I HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT DAMMIT.

So why am I writing this? Because I neglect this stupid blog so much.

Stayed home from school cuz I woke up in the middle of the night, nauseous from the pain in my toe.

American Thanksgiving tomorrow. How exciting. Football and my family. I think I might shoot myself. -_-

Is it odd that two of my three main characters were at one point in their storylines suicidal? And right now Mattie's uber depressed... I'm way too terrible to my characters. I need to do something nice for them all. ...well, I gave Damien a nice boyfriend. Can't say the same for Iago... (glances over to Cassio and whistles innocently) Why must all my characters be so tragic? I don't understand it TT~TT I LOVE YOU GUYS. I REALLY DO. I SWEAR. I think I just like tragedies too much... (looks at Othello and grins sheepishly)

Coldplay always makes me cry...

WAIT. I DIDN'T WANT TO WRITE THIS. I SHOULD STOP WRITING.

I'll pay people cookies to hug me. Please?

Tata~!
