Ok, so my dad got Star Trek 2009 and guilt tripped the whole house into watching it with him. First off, the movie was freaking awesome! <33 Kirk and Spock were totally banging. After the movie, I went and read at least 7 Kirk/Spock fics. They were so cute, awesome, and omg worthy. I also found another nano-er in the group of K/S writers. So yays! ^-^
The bad part though was that my grandfather wouldn't STOP TALKING during the movie! OMG! I was about ready to just kick everyone out of the room so I could have my silent fangasms in peace. Urh.
Also, on a slightly-random-but-still-important-because-it-is-life-or-death note, my grandfather is clearly not used to driving on the roads around here. He's from Canada. All I can say is that they must have much wider roads and a lot more traffic up there. He was having problems with our 'narrow roads' and kept doing these crazy jump inbetween people to change lanes moves that had my heart in my throat for the first four times before I just zoned it out and thought of new fanfiction ideas.
On the better related news front there, I finally broke my 20K word count on NaNo; it's given me my confidence in writing back, so I'll most definantly be upping my fanfiction update schedule when December comes around.
And now, enough procrastiniating, I'm off to wrote more of my novel and buy new manga! XD <3

Why yes Mr. Panda, I am related to Mr. Sloth
History is spelled very similarly to 'destroy', or 'his toy.' Am I the only one to notice this? Maybe it's because I have a nine page assignment due in four hours that I am noticing all of this...
Yay for word padding tricks learned from NaNo! *sigh* As cool as my history teachers initals are, (ZHA, how cool is that?) I can't help but be annoyed at the multiple assignments given to us everyday.
Plus, I had an awesome new GW/HP idea today while driving to my write-in. What if Zechs was actually Lucius Malfoy? And Quatre was an amnesiac Draco? XD It's so awesome and I already have the basis of an outline for it written out...but I'm not allowed to think about that until December.
Also, I'm a little behind on this, but they found CrazyAboutYugi's hacker. He's from NY apparently. They're trying to sue him for several things and he's been blacklisted by the fanfiction community. Remind me never to upset the puzzleshipping community. They are freaking awesome! <3
On more of the homefront news, I still have no idea when my gradfather will be showing up. It's rather...worrying. I don't even have a clue if he's still in Canada or if he's in the US on his way down. Like, right now. >.< It's so stressful! Which means even less is getting done than normal.
*sigh* Enough procrastiniating for now, I have a history paper to write. ;_; Any volunteers? No? Damn.

Casshern
So, I had to go on an art trip with my stupid art class yesterday. It sucked. Majorly. >.<
On a positive note (and the reason for the name of this post), I watched a Japanese movie called Casshern on the way to the museum. It was freaking awesome! I also came up with a few new plunnies for the movie while I was watching it. ^^ Unfortunantly, I have to put those ideas on hold until NaNo is over. I also saw several points where I could screen cap some good icon bases. I'm still a novice at iconing, but Cait likes what I've done so far, so maybe I don't completely suck? I'll probably end up doing the icons later on this week and making a post on my LJ for them.
And the most amazing part of Casshern? The themesong was written and sung by UTADA HIKARU!! <3 I didn't even realize it until the ending when they played it as the credits rolled by. When I found out it was her too, I freaked out and was all hyper and excited. Which was rather awkward because it happened on a (red!) school bus filled with old people who had no clue what I was talking about. Hehe...
And I couldn't leave you guys without recommending a new fanfiction could I? This is another GW/HP (because I am now officially obssessed):
ID: 4043045 - A Persian's Tale
- Abandoned in London by the Dursely's with fifty pounds to his name and no desire to lodge in a Leaky filled to the brim with Light hostile patrons, who would've thought running from a mugging would find him living in luxury as a cat...
- Just from the summary, I wouldn't have really wanted to read it. But considering I had read just about all the other GW/HP stories, I thought 'what the hell' and gave it a try. It was awesome! It was really fun to read Harry as a cat, especially since the author writes in such a way as to make it fun and easy to read. A definant recommendation.
And now, off to type more of my novel before wallowing in despair over how little I actually have completed...

NaNoWriMo
I am participating in NaNoWriMo this year. Which, for all you poor people who actually have lives, NaNoWriMo is short for National Novel Writing Month which takes place in Novemeber. I will have to write a novel of at least 50,000 words to win.
I have two plots right now which are fighting for dominance. Technoxity and Inkweaver. Both are epic fantasy plot that are having quite a bit of fun messing with my head. (never write an alternate dimension story unless you are fully prepared to face the concequences!)
I'm so used to writing fanfiction that it will be interesting to see what I do when I start writing a novel.
On a random side-note, Poker Pair Week was a lot of fun. So hugs to everyone who participated!
