If you are waiting for a fill from your request at my shuffle fic meme, please read this!


I still have to fill fics for: nox_candida, mywittyuzername, ourdramaqueen, ilovewales, annjej76, and flying_dreamz.

ATTENTION: If you are any of the abovementioned people, I will fill your requests, but please be patient! Many of these are turning into much longer fics than I expected, so it will take me a while to fill them. I do have rough outlines done for everyone except for those of you who put in a request today. I am hoping to get at least part of everyone's posted in the next two weeks.

Thank you all for such great prompts! I'm having a lot of fun plotting them out. :)

Thoughts on Lost:

V. interesting. I loved the look on Harry's face when Eko came in. I would've been o.o too if I'd seen him come in all big and bad like that. Also, because I am lame, I just saw last week's episode right before I watched tonight's, and it looks like those symbols that flashed by when the timer hit 0 were Egyptian hieroglyphics. In fact, I'm almost 100% sure that's what they were. Also v. interesting. Next week's (or whenever the new one is) looks really good too. It'll be odd to have a pregnant Sun.

In other news, I :&hearts Chipotle. Mmmmm.

Also, my atomic_fiction story is done. *buffs nails* I am so excited that I actually got it done early; I thought I'd be frantically trying to come up with something the night before it was due.

because I stupidly joined NaNoWriMo. Expect the world to end should I actually finish.

here's my profile. *eyes [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] for support*

I am crazy.

I should be doing my poetry journals and working on my story and doing poetry repsonses and my responses to the authors of the storiws I have to read this weekend. I must add a rant about these stories. I love everyone in my class, but of the eight stories I've read so far, only ONE has been even close to good. The rest are so....bad. I hate to say it, but they are. There are some good parts about of all of them, but fthey are riddled with so many problems, especially grammar ones. Since I'm a writing tutor and a grammar nazi to boot, I ahve no patience for bad grammar and am constantly correcting it on their stories. As an aside, most of these stories don't even have a defined conflict, or are based on a premise that can't work without more development (ie bringing a boy back to life using magical powers that are not even talked about in the story and then dying because somehow you gave your life force to the dying boy) . One story just ends where it shouldn't. One story is written ENTIRELY IN FRAGMENTS which made me twitch so bad that I could hardly read it. And it was not intentional fragments thrown in to call attention to something. The entire story was written this way. *eyeball twich*

I was also sorely disappointed to find out that I can't take anymore English classes other than the last two that I'm required to take, and my honours project. I now have to fill my spring quarter with elective crap and there will probab;y be nothing interesting offered. ARgh.

My Winter Quarter schedule:

Eng 410: Shakespeare. Taught by a man who is British and has an accent to die for.
Spanish 312: Conversation II.Taught by same prof I've had for the past 3 quarters. Will be cakewalk.
Tai Chi (hey I needed a two hour class)
Honours Project (ENG 498)
History 435: Tudor England. This is taught by the same prof. who taught that WWI Brit. history/lit course I took last spring. I don't like her, but it was too interesting to pass up. Expect lots of ranting about this one.
Philosophy 472: Philosophy of the Social Sciences. Required class. Will be cake.

*putters off to do real work*
