WORDS MEME
Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!".
I will then give you five words that remind me of you.
Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.
The supremely awesome tankshallkill gave me: DAVID ARCHULETA, CAPSLOCK, WRITING, DRARRY, JASON MRAZ AND UM HI, AWESOME WORDS!
FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE HAVE DAVID ARCHULETA.
OKAY, HI, DON'T YOU KNOW ME? WELL, LET ME JUST SAY THAT I STAN HIM HARD CORE. LIKE, LET'S NOT EVEN USE THE WORD STAN OKAY IT SEEMS INADEQUATE TO MY FEELINGS. IT'S LIKE...HOW CAN THIS ONE BOY, THIS ONE BOY AFFECT ME SO MUCH? EVERY TIME I SEE HIS FACE MY HEART JUST BECOMES THIS AMAZING DRUM SOLO THING AND EVERYTHING SEEMS BETTER EVEN IF MY WORLD IS LITERALLY FALLING APART. I KNOW IT MIGHT LOOK WEIRD TO SOME PEOPLE BUT I DON'T CARE AND THAT'S HOW MUCH I LOVE HIM. HIS VOICE HAS BECOME THE SOUNDTRACK OF MY LIFE, HIS SMILE IS THE SUN, HIS LAUGH IS A BALM AND AND OH MY HECK, I CAN'T BE COHERENT ABOUT DAVID ARCHULETA AT ALL. AND IT DOES NOT HURT AT ALL THAT HE IS SO SO SO SO SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL. I LOL AT ANYONE WHO WILL DATE HIM BECAUSE HE WILL BE PRETTIER THAN THAT PERSON.
This is serious business now, people. David has, I think, one of the most amazing personalities I know and let me tell you, I know a lot because I love to watch people. He's just so sweet and kind and it's not an act at all, not a farce or just some way to gain attention but he's genuinely that nice, that weird, that unwittingly funny, that thoughtful, that...just, he makes me believe in good things even when the world sucks. The world is nasty, I know, and he knows that, but his idealism and his cheer and his faith and his hope makes him so beautiful and what we should always aspire to be. He's become an inspiration, a love and the fucking brightest star in my world right now and forever, I think.
I can say so much more but I just remembered there are four other words. *facepalms*
AND THIS REQUIRES SPARKLY FONT
I LOVE YOU DAVID ARCHULETA
CAPSLOCK
I DIDN'T USE TO LIKE WRITING EVERYTHING IN CAPSLOCK. SERIOUSLY. THEY HURT MY EYES AND I HEAR MY VOICE SHOUTING IN MY HEAD EVERY TIME I WRITE AND READ CAPSLOCK. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I'VE CHANGED EVER SINCE THE APPRECIATION POSTS AND FUCK IT IF EVERYTHING I WANT TO EXPRESS ABOUT NOW SEEMS INADEQUATE WITHOUT CAPSLOCKS AND BIG FONTS AND SPARKLES. HEY COOKLETA PEOPLE, AND _ETC, YOU'VE TURNED ME INTO THIS SERIOUSLY FLAILING THING.
LIKE FOR EXAMPLE. WHENEVER DAVID TWEETS SOMETHING ADORABLE, OR COOK-RELATED:
Oh my gosh! I can't believe it this is so awesome and what the heck I love you David David please go see Cook you are simply presh!
YEAH, DOESN'T WORK, RIGHT? IT'S LIKE I'M WHISPERING MY GLEE AND THE NO COMMAS, PERIODS THING DOESN'T WORK OUT SO WELL. SO:
OH MY GOSH! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT THIS IS SO AWESOME AND WHAT THE HECK I LOVE YOU DAVID DAVID PLEASE GO SEE COOK YOU ARE SIMPLY PRESH! (or the ever popular) DAVID YOU CAN HAVE MY FEMALE GENITALIA MY HEART AND SOUL!!!
WRITING
Oh man, writing! WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT WRITING? I've been writing for more than half of my life. I think if you love to write, then you also love to read. It's a given to have those two together. When I write, it's like, this is freedom for me. I can create anything, I can put all of my heart and soul into this, I can use the positive and negative things in my life to be able to write and just release everything. It's an escape, it's a balm, it's a comfort, it's a habit, it's one of my true loves. There's nothing more comfortable, or easy, or natural, than to just put the ideas and images in my head into words. It's a thing of beauty, really, the ability to write. It's amazing how a few words can make you feel so much, how a simple sentence or turn of phrase can make you laugh or burst into tears. When I'm in a bad place in my life, when everything just fucking sucks, I can pour all of that rage and hurt and sadness and make something out of it. It's therapy. Likewise for when I'm extremely happy. There's no right mood to write in because you can write as long as you love to do, as long as you want to do it and that could be forever.
DRARRY AND I LOL AT THAT BECAUSE USUALLY IT'S JUST H/D FOR US.
This.
I've never been able to adequately express how much I love this pairing. It's the first real pairing I fell into after stumbling across Legolas/Aragorn nearly six years ago. I wasn't even into slash so much yet and by this time, I was completely in love with Harry Potter and the heterosexual couplings there. When I saw this pairing, I couldn't believe it. I was all, 0.0 What??? But I took a chance and I never got my heart back. There's something about Harry and Draco that just feels right to me. It's like, when I read about them, think about them, imagine about them there's this fucking feeling that nearly overwhelms me in its intensity: that feeling that they are perfect, perfect, perfect for each other. I've only felt this feeling for one other couple and that's Cookleta but even I have to say that as far as my OTP goes, it's definitely H/D (though Cookleta comes so so so very close). I may not be active in the H/D fandom right now but I still love them so, so, so much. I've read the best stories EVER from this pairing. I've cried my heart out, raged, cursed, laughed, smiled, fallen in love and just...Harry/Draco, I will always love you the best forever. I mean it. Nothing can top you. Nothing.
For the past six years, my life has been so different because of them. I started to write seriously in the H/D fandom. If it weren't for them, I probably wouldn't be so obsessed with slash. I PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE WRITING FANFIC AT ALL IF NOT FOR THEM.
SO THANK YOU, HARRY/DRACO, YOU MADE MY LIFE SO WONDERFUL.
JASON MRAZ
His music, you guys. His wonderful, wonderful music. It was my friend back in high school who introduced me to Jason Mraz. Curbside Prophet. Remedy. Geek in the Pink. You and I Both. His version of I Melt With You. No Stopping Us. Wordplay (and it's wonderful crack video). Lucky.
I'm Yours. Oh heck, this song is one of my most favorite songs of all time. I fell in love with this song before it became popular. I love the original version, the unreleased one, and this song just...this song is beautiful and wonderful and all kinds of perfect. His voice in this, the smooth clear vocals, the lyrics...ah god. (It also doesn't hurt I love love love love madly David's version of 'I'm Yours'). I've memorized the entire thing and can sing it in my sleep. It's one of my most played songs in iTunes and it's just that good.
And Jason is so real, you know? He connects with his audience, whether in a big sold-out concert or that one time he sang (I think) in the backyard of some couple when he did his tour in Europe. That's what I love about an artist, the one who connects with them in a meaningful level. Like you're one of their friends. David has that. Jason has that, too.
I think Jason Mraz is awesome.
