Hi guys!

It's time for the second annual Torri Higginson Birthday Project! GET EXCITED!!

Last year's birthday project for Torri was a compilation of video submissions from all you lovely fans, and Torri adored it! This year, we're doing something a little different, but no less awesome! This year's project is a scrapbook, which will be compiled by Isa (torrealis) and Catherine (hihoplastic) and given to Torri at the Creation Entertainment Convention in LA in November.

As mentioned, this project is a scrapbook, so it's pretty open what you submit! Letters, cards, artwork (including photoshop, drawings, paintings, etc., anything that's 2-dimensional or can be folded into a 2-dimensional shape to fit in the scrapbook), photographs, collages, etc. will all be accepted! This is not a complete list, obviously, so if you have other ideas please let us know so we can add it here! Be creative! Your submissions can be as short or as long as you like; we aren't going to cap anything.

In an attempt to be brief, here's an pre-emptive FAQ. If we missed something, don't hesitate to ask in the comments or via email (thbirthdayproject@gmail.com)!

Because what this journal lacks is obviously more SGA spam...

- Europeans! Torri Higginson will be at SFBall in the UK! You lucky whores. :P http://www.sfbevents.com/sfball/

- Also, if you're on twitter and a Torri fan, check out higginsoninfo. We pimp it. Oh yeah.

So remember that time I went on hiatus? For important schooly things? Yeah.

( Stonehenge ApocaFail recap told via emails. Spoilers, obviously. )

I don't really have time to flist (*glares at tests*), but I would love to hear other people's reactions to this epic cinematic experience! I hope you had as much fun loling as I did. :D

PS: Thank you torrealis! I totally stole this link from you. ♥ x a billion!


[Edits:]

( conversations with 'nuna and t-err about how catherine is very single-minded and in the gutter )

[Edit2] Oh! and for limonatafic - pretty much all I could think about for half this film (whenever Torri wasn't on screen) was, Building a henge are we? That's a fabulous idea. It's a marvelous religion the druids have got. and They built Stonhenge, one of the biggest henges in the world! No one's built a henge like it ever since. No one knows what the fuck a henge is. *g*

- Had the best time last night watching SGA with snapplesons! We got a chance to catch up and talk before diving into The Rising I & II, and it was fabulous! (Both the talking and the watchage!) I totally forgot how funny/lame/awesome that episode is. All the fabulous dorky lines! "John Sheppard does it naturally." / "How come I never make friends like that?" "You need to get out more." "We're in another galaxy; how much more 'out' can you get?" "Does this have lemon in it?" / "This isn't a long flight, so I'll be as succinct as possible." [silence] "That was pretty succinct." "Thank you." / "We come from a galaxy far, far away." / "Now I'm thinking about a nice turkey sandwich." [nothing] "Worth a try." AND THE BALCONY SCENE. "You do realize that could get us into all sorts of trouble, right?" ♥

And, because snappleons is AWESOME, she immediately noticed the eyesexings (from episode one! just like Mulder and Scully*) and how adorable Lizabeth is whenever anyone mentions the Ancients. AND, even better, instantly made the comparison of Wraith --> Humans as Humans --> Animals. Ollie, I do not think it is humanly possible for me to adore you any more than I already do. ILY. ♥

*Oh, I forgot to tell you! I watched Fight the Future a few weeks ago with my friend who was visiting. And she did not understand the epicness of the "Mulder!" "Scuuuullaaay!!" cornfield scene. And it was very sad. And I wish you would have been there to help me explain how fabulously hilarious and awesome it is.

- I need to go shower soon, 'cause M and I are going shopping (this should be interesting) but. First a Torri!spam for snapplesons! None of these videos (or fics) have spoilers in them. As we progress, I'll keep spamming you with more stuff. (If you don't want to be spoiled about the series, I'd stay away from youtube, because a lot of fanvids and interviews and stuff give things away.)

Acting
→ adorable 10 minute film. includes toilet brushes.

( more. lots more. i may have gone overboard. can you blame me? *g* )

BONUS: The Flan and His Hair



And here are some fics, if you're interested! I will try to keep updating (if you want) as we keep watching. SGA people, if you know of any other fics that are non-spoilerly, please link! :D

John/Elizabeth Fics
You will not be spoiled by these fics if you have seen:

Season One:
1.1/2 The Rising (I & II)
→ untitled fic by peanutbutterer | John and Elizabeth have movie night - cute banter and pg-sexings
→ ancient techniques by peanutbutterer | Elizabeth teaches John Ancient - cute banter, pg-sexings, adorableness abounding
→ Many Times, Many Ways ...er. by me. *facepalm* | John/Elizabeth Christmas fluff, set on Earth.
→ Music Appreciation ...also by me. | in which I shamelessly self-insert my taste in music into fic, hee.
→ fall to pieces by anr | au, angsty, reasonably happy ending, pg-sexings

- Okay, really going now. Frell.

- Note to self: organize your freaking tags. Good grief.

OH. And if any vid people want to make a John/Elizabeth vid to this song, that would be awesome. Mildly cliche, yes. But also awesome.
