Introduction

Hello. Callistonian.net is my stomping ground on the Internet. Here, I post a potpourri of things - this place is a little random. I'm Chantelle: a 23 year old foreign language, law, and history obsessed girl.

Cecily von Ziegesar’s Gossip Girl #1
Gossip Girl revolves around the lives of privileged teens living in New York City’s Upper East Side. The vast majority of GG’s protagonists are spiteful and superficial: they are as deep as the ink on paper after a girl signs her name with a Montblanc fountain pen.

Okay, I suck at reading—apparently. I’ve honestly reached a lifetime low: in two months, two months!, I’ve read only 3 books worth mentioning. In an effort to remedy this vice, I’ve decided to read 5 books this week. I don’t know if my deciding to read books is going to turn into my actually reading them—I know why I haven’t been reading. a) I dislike library books b) I’m stingy and don’t wish to buy books and c) I don’t want to read the books I have/can get for free. Help? :)

In other news, Lene tagged me.

What you have to do in this is the following:

  1. List five vices you have, with a description if you want to.
  2. Tag five bloggers for this meme.
  3. Link back to the blogger who tagged you, and this post if you want to be nice!

Arguing. I really like getting into intense conversations on random things. I like conflict; I like arguing about silly stuff. As long as everything stays playful, I find verbal sparring fun. Sometimes, when I’m tired and haven’t had my fill of quick-witted battles - I take little jabs at my friends… I’m impatient and want to play. :(

The Internet. I often use the Internet in an unproductive manner. ‘fo shame. :(

Ability to do Nothing. This is related to the vice above. I can keep myself amused for an hour or so with nothing at my disposal. I can just sit and think. I also have something of an obsessive personality. So I’m capable of checking my email 20 times in 5 minutes (and thus I’m capable of wasting 5 minutes and of doing nothing). Oh, do I have mail? No? What about now? Now? Let me wait a moment. Now? NO? Still? Maybe it didn’t refresh?

My Pace (マイペース). I work at my own pace and do things when I feel like it. :P (Take note: this is somehow different from procrastination.)

Perfectionist. I’m a perfectionist. This is a vice because I often set high standards, and deal poorly with little failures. Like zomg? What do you mean I didn’t score in the 99.999th percentile? Everyone’s going to be disappointed in me. I can’t face anyone. *sob* T_T

Now, you know what a terrible person I am. :) So I shall tag five people: Chanel, Vera, Kaylee, Rilla, and you (if you’d like to be tagged). ♥
