"The time has come" the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things
Of shoes and ships and sealing-wax
Of cabbages and kings"
Perhaps starting a first update with a children's poem isn't the normal way of doing these things, but then, I wouldn't really know. I've never done this before. I couldn't really tell you why I'm doing it now. I suppose, every so often, one has an urge to reconnect with people they knew in the past. Add to that the allure of making new friends and I was sold.
Well, now what am I supposed to say? Shall I introduce myself? It always seemed a bit silly, since if you wanted to know, you could go on Wikipedia or one of my fan sites online and read about me. If you haven't, you probably just don't care, and won't want to read this anyway. Oh well, I suppose no one is being forced to read this at gunpoint, right? And if someone is forcing you to read this, I suggest you get new friends.
Right, so before I digress any further, my name is Orlando Bloom, but I do respond to either Will or Legolas. Although, recently it's come my attention that I can't be called Will, since that name is taken. A few of my close friends call me Elf-boy, and since I haven't yet stopped them, that's probably an option as well. Honestly, though, I prefer Lan to any of them. So, I guess what I'm saying is, please call me Lan or, failing that, Lando. Just think Star Wars. I live in London, England, and despite what people may think, my accent as Legolas and Will was actually my own. I was born and raised in England, and though it rains a lot here, I love it and I'm not sure I'd live anywhere else. There would have to be something really good to make me leave, in any case.
This is harder than I thought, actually. I don't know how to talk about myself without sounding vain, and yet, that's what I have come here to do, isn't it? I guess I can just keep it fairly general.
I'm an environmentalist, as well as a Buddhist, but I don't let either thing get in the way of my life. I try really hard not to be judgemental, since I understand that everyone is where they are in their own mind. I live in England, and I am fairly, well, British, stereotypically speaking. By which I mean I don't mind the rain and I love tea, I suppose. I'm fairly restrained emotionally, or so I've been told. I have dated quite a few women, such as Miranda Kerr, Uma Thurman, Kirsten Dunst and Jessica Biel who had told me this, which is odd because quite a few people seem to think I'm gay. I really don't see how it's any of their business. Oddly, though my sexuality is always in question, I'm nearly always linked up with some woman or other. I don't care who you've heard I'm dating, it's not true. Let's just leave it at that, shall we?
I think that's a good enough entry, don't you? I thought so. Now, as I am severely jet-lagged from having been on a plane for about 18 hours out of the last 24, I think I will go find my bed and collapse there for at least a week. If you need me, my phone is on. I'm not sure where it is, in a bag somewhere, but wherever it is, it is on. GreenleafOrlando for all your Lan needs.
