return from exile
so I haven't even touched LJ in like almost a year, but I was listening to Florence + the Machine's "No Light, No Light" and thinking wow this is like the perfect Heero/Relena song. But then I was like who will share in this amazement with me??? And so I remember you all, my fandom buddies, my LJ friends :)
Ok so seriously, look at these lyrics. I ( Read more... ) -
Watching a new anime!
So I just checked out the list of new anime for Spring 2011 and discovered a series called 'Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai' or AnoHana for short. I've only seen one ep and it looks like it'll be beautiful. Six childhood friends have grown apart and carry with them a trauma from their youth. I'm thinking it's like a high ( Read more... ) -
Help! I suck at making decisions
Ok guys, I need your help. I have to go to a TV-theme party tomorrow night and I still haven't figured out who to go as. The idea is to dress up as a character from a TV show and then remain in character the entire night. I'd like to find a costume out of my own wardrobe and not have to buy anything, except maybe a prop or two. Also, I'd like ( Read more... ) -
Skip Beat! new manga chapter and ficlet
so the new chapter (171) of the Skip Beat! manga just came out (read it here: http://cyberakumamechgouki.blogspot.com/2011/02/skip-beat-chapter-171-scanlations.html) and I had to write another little fic in response to the new ( Read more... ) -
I'm alive
I know it's been ages since I posted with a real update. I've just been incredibly caught up in figuring out my life and I think I'm right on the cusp of it. Things are moving super fast so I'm having some trouble staying balanced on the edge of that precipice, watching to see which direction will take me where I want to go, but I know I'm almost ( Read more... ) -
There's a revolution going on, in case you missed it
It's been crazy and awesome watching this unfold over the past 2 weeks, but I'm not gonna bore you with stuff you've probably been reading and watching on the news. I just wanted to share a song that was written in honor of the protests by a bunch of hip-hop and rap artists from the US and Canada. They got together and produced an amazing anthem ( Read more... ) -
Remembering Christ on Christmas
So I may not actually celebrate Christmas as a day in itself, but I do recognize that it is a commemoration of the Virgin Birth of Jesus. So I guess to sort of join in on the holiday spirit, I wanted to share those verses from the Qur'an that describe the miracle of the birth of Jesus to the Virgin Mary. It's a really beautiful and emotional story ( Read more... ) -
How did these past 2 days just disappear?
Somehow I seem to have missed two days of posting at 31_days
I have no idea how this happened, because I am sure I've been writing and I planned out when I was going to post which drabble... How strange to lose all sense of time like that! I'll just have to save these 2 fics for the amnesty day they do at the end of the month. It'll give me more time to ( Read more... ) -
Day 4! I think this is a record for me!
Thank god for 31_days that's all I have to say... i've only gotten a bit more than 2,000 words though -_- so not exactly success, but def not failure! Anyway, here's today's Skip Beat! ficlet. Kyoko-centric introspection about Corn
Fairy Love
( Because it wasn’t important whether she believed in love or not, what mattered was that the couple did and would work together to realize their dreams in each other. And that’s what she’d been getting wrong this whole time. ) -
ok not quite fail, but I'm def not doing 1500 words a day
in case anyone was curious, my NaNo project this year is to write as much Skip Beat fanfic as possible this month. There is a severe dearth of fic for this fandom and so I'm trying my best to do my part to fix that :-P
I posted my Day 1 contribution to 31_days last night, so you can read it here: Too Late to Wake Up
Here's my Day 2 contribution:
