GUYS. I'm writing Merlin fic.

WHAT.

(And it's not even crack, what the hell?)

I've FINALLY finished a short story I've been working on for like, a MONTH. It's only 2300 words long, what the hell, self? I like it, though. So there's that. That's something very me - whenever I have a sort of artistic phase, I'll and draw and paint and be crafty and yet hardly write al all, like now, and then, whenever I write write write like crazy, I can't draw for shit. OH, ALE. THOU ART SO WEIRD.

I'm now all caught up on Captain America. OH, BUCKY. YAY NATASHA! GO SHARON! Also, how much I loved that Tony became sort of a regular character after Steve's death? And that he kept on having IMAGINARY CONVERSATIONS WITH HIM, LOL LOL, mostly about how everything sucks now that his true love best friend is gone. HEE.

I'm behind on SPN, Heroes, Gossip Girl and Secret Diary of a Call Girl, and yet I CARE NOT and will go and watch Merlin. WEEE. For the slash is rather amazing, yes. And the show is also a bit rubbish, yes yes, but so much fun. XD

I spent most of the evening sewing a stuffed bird. Yes. You heard that right. A stuffed bird. And it is ADORABLE. :D (even if it took two tries, lol) I found the pattern in here (here's the .pdf), and it was free so I figured why the hell not. I'm pretty lousy at sewing, but I actually love it, and would really like to get good at it. In between that and the stuff I'm painting, I'm dripping artsy fartsery all over, haha.

I'm about 6400 words into my apocalyptothon fic, and it seems like I still have about 2000 words to go. Yikes. o_O I finally overcome my block, though, which fills me with glee.

Two of my cousins ended up in the hospital in the past three days with some kind of weird (and as of yet undiscovered) stomach bug, one after the other one - and they're not even siblings. Now I have the weirdest stomache and man, but I hope I didn't get it from them. o_O They're fine now, thankfully - they were mostly dehidrated, with all of that, er, fluid expulsion, if you'll call it that, lol. It's so weird that they got the same thing at the same time, though... They've just come back from a cruise around northern Europe (yes, that is a bit of envy you can hear in my metaphorical voice, UM UM), so maybe it was that, but if I have it too (although let's hope not as bad), then dude, but what the hell? *scratches head*

I must admit I haven't started reading Breaking Dawn yet. I could desperately use a laugh, but apparently this is just craptastic sooooooo. I'll start reading in a while, and mocking soon after, probably, haha.

But later, because I reaaaally have to keep on writing my apocalyptothon fic. It's almost 3000 words right now, and I haven't even reached the apocalypse. *__*

I spent most of my day driving my brother around. My life, it is so glamorous.

This interview by MGMT made my day. Man, but I like those guys SO MUCH - they're all weird and simple and like, SO OUT OF IT, haha.

I saw My Little Bride yesterday, which is a cute Korean movie about a high schooler that gets somewhat tricked by her grandfather into marrying his best friend's grandson. HIJINKS ENSUE. Thing is, it's like Goong redux, minus the political intrigue and the hot brooding asshole-y princes. GOD, I MISS GOONG. SO MUCH. Plus, the main actresses look really alike and the gal that played Chae-Kyung's weird heart-something holding also appears in here. HUH. It was still really cute, though, it made me laugh and squee a bit and it was perfect for my mood. So it's nothing extraordinary, but quite nice.

Other than that, WOOT, Iron Man fic is rea-dy (er, as soon as I think of a title, that is) for posting and I'm soooort of starting apocalyptical Booth/Brennan. YAY BONES. I just have to get this out of my mind, and then, then I'll be able to start on my apocalyptothon, seeing that I've finally figured out how to work that specific crossover. Good good.

Well, I'm still stealing wireless from my neighbors, but it comes and goes every, oh, three point five seconds and it is slow as fuck. ALSO, it goes away at 10pm sharp. Dude, wtf. I know I shouldn't complain, but... AAAH, I WANT TO SEE LAST SATURDAY'S DOCTOR WHO. So much. ;____; And, of course, I can't, you know, get it with this soddy connection.

Bah. Anyway, I'm not commenting much because it seriously takes ages to do so, but I'm, uh, lurking? Reading around, anyway. I haven't had the chance to finish not even ONE BigBang, mostly because on the rare ocassion I get, I'm reading Iron Man fic like crazy. Man, I'm loving this fandom. ♥

Speaking of which! I'm still writing that fic, it's 3500 words long - it's been going so slow because DAMN, but Tony's head space is scary. Writing from his POV is so damn hard, but at the same time so intriguing, you know, because beneath all that snark and confidence he's really, really messed up. AND THAT IS WHY I LOVE IRON MAN IN A NUTSHELL.

OH, and today was my last day of school of the semester. YESSSS. Well. It wasn't a proper last day (that would've been on Tuesday - we were supposed to go and paint the cliffs by my college in watercolor, but it was POURING, so it got cancelled, lol), I just had some errands to run and stuff to print, but STILL. Last day of school. So much glee. :D

I have 1000 words of Iron Man fic in my hard drive right now. HEE. God, I'd missed writing. Best part of the day, though, because the rest of it has been semi-sucky. And while the rest of the world is writing snarky Tony/Pepper banter? I'M WRITING ALCOHOLIC!TONY ANGST. *flaily hands* I don't even know, guys. o_O

I move out of here on Friday, and we're already packing. Which, you know, sort of sucks. I also hadn't realized that I'll be internet-less and cable-less for at least a week, and the way I was filled with TERROR made me realize just how much of an internet junkie I am. UM. ER. I considered not watching today's Who until I can get the 2nd part (whenever that is) buuuut the stuff outside cuts is making me way too gleeful about it to not watch it. SO.

(I guess I'll just have to like, become a regular at starbucks or something and steal wireless. HAR HAR? Dunno.)

I have to install and learn how to use Flash like, right now. *bites nails* I also have to edit a video, which I've never done before. MORE WOE.

I've been doing homework almost all day long as well today, but oddly enough I feel somewhat zen about it. Huh. Even if I still have a bit to go. Maybe it is because it involves using a lot of PEARS. They're so green and lovely and a bit wet because I dipped them in water before I took the photo for ~extra deliciousness~ and pears are just zen on themselves? Who knows.

I talked to Juanjo this morning - he sounded a bit better, but still quite messed up. Bah, life sucks so much sometimes.

I know this journal has been seriously lacking in the fannish departmen for a while now, but just think about this: Two more weeks and then it'll be TWO WONDERFUL MONTHS of scratching my belly and doing nothing. YESSSS. And THEN I'll spam you. :3 Anyway, I really feel like writing, too - Bones apocafic, and I finally figured out how to make that certain crossover work for my apocalyptothon entry AND I sort of want to write snarky Tony/Pepper or genfic or whatever from Iron Man because that's the fic I've been liking better as of lately and apparently all the cool kids are doing it anyway. lulz.

Aaaanyway, this interview with Dirty Pretty Things was absolutely lovely. It's been a while since we've gotten something other than pure lulz out of the boys, and now I have to say I'm all hyped up about the new album. It BETTER not suck, dear Carlos. Just saying.

( Gossip Girl 1x16 - All About My Brother: )

I finished reading The Host yesterday morning, but I want to write a long-ass review (don't ask why) and I don't really have the time for it right now, woe, because I have a lot of homework to do and the OH SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, IT'S DUE TOMORROW, WHAT THE FUCK AM I GOING TO DO OH SHIT SHIT SHIT has finally sunk in.

*panics*

I've been procrastinating on this thing for a week and a half, though, so I really shouldn't be surprised.

And what ELSE is keeping me from doing said homework? Well, that Boondock Saints fic I'm writing? I originally thought it'd be like, less than 1000 words or something and now it's 3000 and it's still not over. AH, BRAIN, WHY MUST YOU BETRAY ME SO. I'm really liking the way it's turning out, though.

Today was an incredibly frustrating day at school, made worst by the horrible heat and the fact that stupid little me decided to wear a long-sleeved shirt. I came back home moody and pissed at everything and pretty much annoyed at the world in general.

So I saw the two parter Season 3 finale of Buffy to cheer myself up. And it worked! Granted, now I have to start with homework, but I really needed a break. Plus, there's no way to be pissed with the shiny and Wesley as a stuck up ass, lol.

Weirdly enough, I've been reached by two (two!) people that want to translate my latest fic into Chinese. That is... both incredibly weird and incredibly flattering, lol. I can't wait to see how it looks, hee!

I also wrote a bit, yay. The Bones fic is nearly finished, and then I'll have to go and look up all those technical terms I've been forgoing so far, arrrgh. (aka a bazillion names for tiny tiny bones.)
