Mar. 16th, 2006 03:16 amWhy does Supernatural fic always make me tear up? Whether it's angsty, sweet, sexy, thoughtful, a bit violent.... there's almost always tears involved (on my part). It's just always so intense. I've spent the last few nights reading late into the night, and damn. I love this fandom. *squishes everyone*
In good news, I now have 105 userpics! Yay! I didn't think I'd have that many cause I've only had this paid account for around a year. Hm. Anyway, I'm not complaining! :) I like this loyalty userpics thing, it makes me happy. Moooore icons! Whee!
In even more good news, I'm making progress on my music vid! I've got over a minute done and I'm reasonably pleased with it. It's nothing fancy, but it's quiet and sweet and I'm just basically getting the hang of Premiere, and also all the little moments between the boys. Because even working with only 16 episodes is tough - I can't imagine vidding something as expansive as... Buffy! Well, uh, clearly that's a lie because I just did a BtVS vid, but I made sure I sharply limited myself, and I think I used source from 10 episodes, tops, for that, and all very specifically Faith stuff. So. Since I ripped specific moments, I *only* had those to work with. But in Premiere, I have these entire episodes that I can go through, and neep! It's intimidating! Fun, though :) And I am so in love with the song I'm vidding, it's just so beautiful.
In not so great news, I have more reading than I thought I would... I've made good progress in both reading assignments I've got, but I have *not* made good progress on the creative assignment for Experimental Fiction. The assignment is to write something "you wouldn't want someone to read" and by someone it means someone or a few someones specifically. So, say, a story you wouldn't want your mom to read, or your best friend, or your crush. You know. And I'm having a really hard time thinking of something. Sara suggested writing fanfic, and I did think about it, but I don't really have any ideas (again, this fandom covers everything!! Gosh) and anyway that'd be kinda embarassing. I'm leaning towards another idea she had, which is to look at *my* life as a TV show and then write fanfic for it. I seem to be leaning towards writing something I wouldn't want Sean to read, heh. He needs to get out of my head >.< So yeah, I have to get to work on that.
Our other assignment for EF was going to be our take-home midterm exam, which was supposed to be due a week from Friday, but then again she also told us she would email it to us a week and a half ago, and we still haven't gotten it. It's going to be ten pages worth of writing, so I *really* hope that she moves the due date. She's a bit scatterbrained sometimes :P
Hm, this post got longer than I intended. Oops! Off to bed :)
