smiles all around!

I feel very happy today! Therefore, while I can, I am going to talk about happy things. Happy things! *is enthusiastic*

a) This song. It has the lyrics 'how many of them can we make die!' How can you not love it? XD

b) Okay, just music in general. Kasey Chamber's 'Nothing At All', Imogen Heap's '2-1', which was written for the PC movie (!!!) but wasn't accepted because it was too dark, and Britney Spear's 'Circus.' (stop laughing at me! I've loved it ever since I saw this vid, which is honestly the best meta-vid for nu!Kirk EVER.)

c) Every single thing in [livejournal.com profile] erasureathon , omg. SO AWESOME. *hugs all the pretty erasures* I have yet to finish commenting on them, but eee!

d) I am feeling  a lot better about the Narnia Exchange piece right now. I've decided to leave it Edmund POV, but there is a possibility that at some point there will be an accompanying Peridan POV because I really, really want to know what he was thinking during all of this.

e) This new trailer for New Moon. SHUT UP. JACOB IS AWESOME, AND THERE ARE WEREWOLVES. This is honestly all I care about.

f) yesterday my mother was at the meat market, and she said something along the lines of 'My daughter will probably be biking up tomorrow to get stuff for our dinner.' (She had to go to a college about two hours away today for meeting her new TA and other stuff.) And the guy was apparently like 'Oh, is that your daughter? The tall, skinny girl who smiles a lot?' Which naturally made me smile a lot. XD I do make a point of smiling and talking to people who are checking me out or helping me out at stores, and it was just really cool to know it got noticed.

g) I am getting some school done! Probably not enough, but I'm doing okay. And I got dinner made again today and had to be responsible, and, I dunno. I'm just feeling happier today. XD

h) I am so excited for [livejournal.com profile] narniaexchange ! Now that I'm not feeling hideously stressed over mine, I'm able to look forward to all the fabulous fics that are doubtless going to come out over there. I've already seen two, and they've both been absolutely marvelous, and I cannot WAIT for all the rest! It makes me want to get mine done and turned in even faster!

WHOA. So I went looking for 2-1, because what would Imogen Heap write that was too dark for PC? The song is bouncy but those first lines!! dang. I can't find the lyrics anywhere but i really want to know what they are.

I am so behind on reading [livejournal.com profile] erasureathon stuff! I really want to but it's not easy reading or anything. I'm going to try to do one a day at least.

NEW MOOOON
so this guy's acting is making me LOL; it looks like the whole movie will be them gawking at each other and him looking at her from under his eyelashes while being gratuitously shirtless. but as long as there are werewolves I am THERE!

a) I am going to listen to that song ASAP. I MUST HEAR THIS. IT IS LIKE THE NARNIA SONG. *excited*

b) I really need to listen more closely to 2-1. I have a habit of not paying attention to music (my reticular formation likes to tune it out /geek) when I'm doing other stuff. Um, yeah. :)

c) I AM BEHIND @ [livejournal.com profile] erasureathon. I MUST GO SEE MORE.

d) YAY! Yay for companion fic with different POV. Reminds me so much of my frustration with the Lucy&Susan England fic.

e) JACOB IS MADE OF WIN. END OF STORY. ♥

f) Aww, that's awesome! *should probably make an attempt to talk to strangers more*

g) Yay for getting school done! :) It's a really nice feeling, after you've gotten your work done.

h) I am so, so excited. I absolutely can't wait to see what people have written!

BB, your happy post makes me so happy after some of your less happy posts recently. *hugs*

She wrote this for PC?! For real?! Wow. Hmm, it IS pretty bleak. PC was pretty bleak itself though. Oh well, even if the directors didn't see it fit for the movie, the song is kind of... fit for the corner of Narnia fandom that I inhabit. XD

NARNIA EXCHAAAAAANGE!!!! Being nice to strangers!!! wheeeeeeeeeeee
