I've been really bad about answering comments/replying to entries lately. :3 Sorry. ^^ I was/am in that stage where you discover a new fandom and imerse yourself in the fic. And this fandom happens to have a lot of longfic, lol. I never was a RPF person; most of the friends I know IRL that read fic are into bandom, and that was never my thing. And I never got the actor thing either, except for a few Hugh Laurie/Stephen Fry fic back when I was into Jeeves & Wooster. *laughs* But I've dabbled in American Idol fic on and off. Before it was Simon/Ryan and Simon/Paula, this time it was Cook/Archuleta and Kris/Allen *g*. I started with Cook/Archuleta because that was the season I actually watched, but a lot of Cookleta fans are Kris/Adam too, and I got completely sucked in. I regret not watching Season 8 so much. I have so much love for Adam Lambert now :D And Kris is pretty awesome too.
And if you don't know who Adam Lambert is, he's the runner up in American Idol's 8th season, and he's the first openly gay mainstream pop artist to launch a career on a major label in America. I'd love him anyway, but that little fact makes me want to actually buy his album just to support him. ^^;; I know, I'm biased. *laughs*
I absolutely love
this music video of his, because he's adorable and sexy, and his other music video
For Your Entertainment is pretty awesome too. My favorite song of his at the moment is
Pick U Up, though. Guh. :) It's much better than the silly title, I promise. xD Well in my opinion anyway lol.
Kris Allen's
music video is good too, and I love that song. :)
Why yes, I am pimping :D /shuts up now
if you want I can link you to a Kris/Adam fandom primer The rest of the time I've been working on finishing up the Cowboy fic *g*. It's actually technically finished, like, the scenes are all there. There are just a couple that need editing/rewriting. But the fact that it's all written is insane. *___* The posting date is next Wednesday, if anyone is interested. I'm kind of curious about the reaction it's going to get. The ShunUki fandom in general isn't fond of AUs, and this is very, very, very AU. And angsty. And probably confusing because it jumps around from the past to the present. So yeah. I enjoyed writing it, very much, and I'm at the point I don't really care if people read it or not, but yeah. I'm curious. *laughs* The fandom might be desperate for longfic and read it anyway. ^^;; It's over 26,000 words, btw, isn't that crazy? Fff. *_*
Also, I've been working on the graphics I signed up to do for au_bigbang too, and I was this close to chucking my computer out the window this morning because nothing looks right. T__T =/ Ah well. I still have a couple days to figure it out!
Okay, okay, real life stuff. I went to a couple end of the school year parties in the last week. They were okay, but I'm really not a party person xD. I end up attaching myself to one person and we talk the whole party, lol. But they were pretty nice. :) It was good to see some people I don't get to see that much.
Tonight my mom and I went shopping for clothes for summer/vacation. End of next week we leave for a cruise :DDDDDD We were actually really productive. My mom and I both hate shopping xD We ended up finding more then half of the stuff we were looking for. We're going to go out again on Sunday, but we got more done than we thought we would. I'm extremely short and freakishly skinny, and so its hard to find things my size. And my mom is your average middle aged lady, she was so surprised we actually managed to find several shorts/capris that didn't "make her look fat". So yeah. It was good. And then we had Zaxbys for dinner! :D Nomnom.
Oh yeah! And I think possibly I have a vague idea for bleachbigbang finally, lol. *pleased* It's another AU, though. That's like three AUs I have going at once, lol. I need to prod at some of my canon based ideas at some point. I have a couple, just they're either not inspiring me at the moment, or they involve too much plot, which means with how busy I am I'd never finish in time for the deadline. So yeah.
