I made another Frodo/Sam fanvid set to a cover of mirrors by Sam Tsui and Kurt Schneider.
A general update
Feb. 6th, 2018 12:08 amMy friend Danielle came over the other night which was really nice. She lives in Melbourne so I don't get to see her often these days. She hung out with my sister and I and we watched the movie Notting Hill. None of us thought it was particularly great but it was fun regardless. By about half way through the movie it seemed apparent to us that the two romantic leads weren't actually that well suited and barely knew each other. We were like: yeah, you like each other, but i'd give your relationship two years tops. So when the movie ended with her laying with him, pregnant, it felt like a really ominous ending to us, even though it was supposed to be happy and romantic. Maybe we've gotten too cynical haha.
I enrolled in my subjects for this semester. I decided to take the plunge and do the genre writing class even though I'm not that confident in my ability to write original fiction. I might come to regret it, but hopefully it will be ok. At least in this class you only need to show your writing to the teacher, as opposed to having a bunch of your peers critique it. I'm required to read a lot of books for that subject, which means I need to put reading Lord of The Rings on hold for a bit. One of those books is Game of Thrones, which I was struggling through but it has finally started to get interesting. It's making me want to give the TV show another chance.
I'm still working away on my Ryan/James Wilfred fanfic. When I started it I only intended it to be a quick 2000 word story, but it just keeps growing, it's like I only know how to write longer stories. I kind of want to hurry up and finish so I can start writing other things. I've been wanting to start writing Frodo/Sam fics for a while. I'm a bit intimidated though, as far characters go they seem hard to write, or at least easy to write badly. I've been finding some particularly good Frodo/Sam fics recently, which inspires me to write but also makes me feel like I could never write anything that good. But I want to give it a go soon anyway.
I finally got Pokémon Sun! I can't believe it's taken me this long to get around to it. I was so sure I was gonna chose Rowlet or Poplio, but then in the moment I just had to choose Litten. I'm also training an Alolan Meowth named Randall. I'll post a picture of my team when I fill it out.

Frodo/Sam fanvid
Jan. 27th, 2018 01:50 amSo, I made a Frodo/Sam fanvid to Firefly by A*Teens. I feel like there's probably songs out there that could fit them better, but I'm into A*Teens at the moment so I needed to make this video exist.
I started reading Lord of The Rings a little while ago and I think I love Sam even more in the books. He's so sweet in the scene where he finds out about the ring. It's too much for my heart :'). He literally bursts into tears when Gandalf tells him that he can come with.
Some of my fave Sam bits from this scene for your consideration:
