So, classes started up again today.  What better way to avoid reading my textbooks than by doing an end of the year survey?  There is no better way.  This is the way, people.  Anyways, I've been longing to steal this from girlinacardigan, and she's being nice and condoning my thievery, so...2008!  And yeah, this is a few days late, but let's just let it slide, k ( Read more... )

Ah, well, my 60 chapter baby is actually down to 56 now, as I had to do some rearranging. (Oh, yeah. It's a Grey's fic. What else?) Which means that I now want to procure another 4 chapters from somewhere, mysteriously, because I really adore the idea of it being a nice round number. But because chapter 11 is kicking my ass, I've put it on hiatus and started work on an idea which is pretty stupid and slightly AU and will. not. leave. me. alone. So I have to write it. And it's making me screech things like, "I just had the best idea ever!" (I may rec you - not to be self-centered, I hope - if it turns out I can write it as wonderfully as it sounds in my head) and people around me look at me really weird. (People I know, but nyeh.) I'm going to shut up about my ideas now. (My planning of stories like in highschool and I had to do some creative writing crap, THOSE ones I just tumbled words onto the paper and filled in the planning sheet later. Oops?)

The water reflection (hee - no pun intended) sounds amazing, and I'm really looking forward to seeing it :) And I do understand your 'weird speak', and I like that name :P But yeah, that makes sense. That's a preferable kind of memory. (Now I'm thinking about the... Infinite Wonderfulness Of An Inpainted Mind? No... AHA! Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Thaaat's it. Right. Anyway, I had a point... right. As much as I didn't GET that movie, it had the memory thing that seems sorta relevant here.) Bleurgh. Well, I'm sure you'll do fabulously at the sex writing from a boy's POV. I always try to make it from the girl. Stupid boy penises indeed. Oh, that scene was hilarious, with Mer's insightful, "He IS the boss of you" and George's confused, "Okay..." and the woeful, "No... I feel empty." (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYIla0x6LOU&feature=related) I love it! Anyway.

Meredith in all minds is amazingly wonderful. Especially when sticking up for herself. And kissing. And being smart and doctorlike.

I think this may be the most topics I ever covered in one comment :P

Hee. I'm guilty of liking nice round numbers for ending fics on as well. I specifically stopped The World Turned Over at 40 because I liked the number. Ahhh... Anyway, yes. Definitely rec me your fic! I absolutely want to read the best idea ever. :D Are you writing the whole thing out before posting it? If you are, I am very impressed by your self-control. I would never be able to manage that. Although it'd do a lot to make my stories better, assuming I could edit them knowing the end and stuff like that. However, I tend to feel to tired and needy and so on after writing a chapter, and have no choice but to post it.

Anyway, I'm glad you're looking forward to the water reflection. Hee. That amused me. Ooh, I loved Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Pretty much entirely because of Kate Winslet and her character. I seem to really enjoy female characters who are just ever so slightly insane and full of issues and messed up, and Clem was definitely that in a very adorable way.

And yeah, you covered many, many topics in one comment. So many that I'm sure I am unable to match it.

As to... ESotSM (thinkin' Esio Trot - Roald Dahl. My mind works in strange ways), it kinda creeped me out. A lot. With all the secret-past-lives-that-you-don't-rememberness. But Clem was really very adorable and issue...d. Issued. So there :P And it's so very sweet with the hiding under the table and running all through his memories and aww. And KW with colory hair is very pretty in a slightly unsettling way. She was also pretty as Rose of the sinking ship, although I did want to shake her a bit. Sad. (A little creepy, too, if I'm being honest.)

I did intend to write all 60 before posting, but then I had a mini attack of some sort and realized that I couldn't bear to go all 60 without seeing if it was actually readable. So then I chopped off the first handful and stuck them up first. BTW? Writing two stories at the same time sucks. Nobody in my 3D life understands, because whenever I try to explain that I'm getting confused because I'm writing two stories with the same characters and I can't remember whether they're from the first or the second, I get some strange looks.

Yeah, Clem definitely rocked the odd hair colors. It definitely was creepy though, especially when Elijah Wood's character was using all the things from the life she didn't remember to make her fall in love with him. Ugh. It makes me shudder thinking about it.

I haven't tried writing two stories with the same characters at the same time. Well, unless a oneshot and a longer fic counts, but I don't think it does. It sounds hard. Also confusing to my already confused mind. So, no strange looks from me.

That guy makes me shudder. I actually physically shudder. It's bizarre.

I love how the comments and replying comments get smaller and smaller until someone says something about two sentences long and nobody replies. I find those little things interesting. Like when two+ people laugh a lot and then there's usually this little silence and then someone exhales with a hummy noise like they're kinda still laughing. Hee. Have you noticed that? (Yeah, I'm strange. I also just realized that I'm probably not getting an lj because I don't have the time to make it pretty. Strange. Anyway, I totally screwed up the dwindling with this massive paragraph.) ;P

Hee. You did kill the dwindling thing with the long paragraph. Oh well. I have to go to sleep anyway, so I will do the short paragraph! Yay!

Also, you should get an lj! It's really, really addictive and lovely. And there's always time to make it pretty. It's called procrastinating! I do it every day.

Ahhh...now I'm procrastinating on my sleep. Must go do that. :D

Well, okay, you convinced me. It's very annoyingly plain and my first ever shiny new entry is all about how annoyingly plain it is. And I may also have mentioned Alice in Wonderland.

Can I be your friend? Pretty pretty please? I don't have any and I'm feeling pathetic.

Yay! I knew I could convince you. And of course you can be my friend. Just click add friend, and that should do the trick. I'll even add you first, so no feeling pathetic. :D

Also, go right ahead with the survey. I stole it from someone else anyways.
