ash48First up: You must check out ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ancastar's Jo and Ellen vid Rabbit Hearted Girl (raise it up) It's a fabulous study of Jo and Ellen. The song is perfect for them and the whole feel of the vid is wonderful.
2. I've discovered my Fannish Bible recently in the guise of: Everybody's Free (to be Fannish) byelizah_jane Just excellent. Even though I've been around here for a while now I always feel like a newbie. I just love the perspective this puts on everything. I particularly like:
"post"
Simple but god damn, when I'm hovering over that post button it comes in handy. :)
and also:
"Maybe you'll rise to BNFdom, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll write a popular series, maybe you won't. Maybe your vids will go largely ignored, maybe you're fanart will be linked to all over the place. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Fandom reaction isn’t always the best measure of the quality of your art. A lot is based on people’s kinks."
Though I'm always curious who the BNF's actually are...
3. 9 to 5 won some awards at Driver Picks the Music recently. That's nice. Really nice. I'm always pleasantly surprised when that happens. :)
4. PUDDING!:
I have to share this even though I know it's TMI, but the other night *chuckles* hubby does the pudding dance for me and as I was chortling and rolling my eyes I was about to say "On Supernatural the other night Dean did exactly....." stops there, because there is NO WAY he wants to here about either Show OR Dean at that moment... Oh my love. Never change. *snuggles him*
5. Film rec. There's this wonderfully delightful Australian film just released called Bran Nue Dae I love coming out of a film feeling truly uplifted. I also discovered that some of the kids I do Little Aths with were in some of the scenes. And it's set Western Australia. Fabulously energetic and celebratory.
6. Well, my lovely long break is coming to an end. I know I've spent far to much time and money drinking and eating in local cafes, but hey. It was the holidays. And they were fab. But I am not unhappy to be going back to work. I love my job and I'm looking forward to seeing the kids again.
*hugs* to you all. New vid tomorrow. Which I'm ridiculously nervous about.

Date: 2010-01-26 07:45 am (UTC)OMG! Finally... this one was like being in labour for god sake! Finally got there. I had so many quality issues (my footage was so dark I almost couldn't see it!). I'm sure it was connected to that recent OS upgrade. Anyway... yeah... *phew*
TOO LATE :P
Hee! So many gems in that post! :)
Oh and welcome back. Been meaning to check out the photos... *smish*

no subject
Date: 2010-01-26 02:54 pm (UTC)Yeah - I got until Thursday. Though the kids don't come back until Monday...
And no, I haven't watched Fringe. Though I have just dl'd some eps. Worth watching? oooh ... Is that what you're vidding??

Date: 2010-01-26 08:13 pm (UTC)As I was telling someone else, Fringe is almost completely unlikable (except for the pretty) until at some point you're hooked completely and waiting for the next episode. As a scientist, it's also advisable to completely switch your brain off and cack yourself silly. For some reason I love it to pieces now. It took a while for Muppet to get me addicted though. It takes me back to watching things like The Burning Zone :)
Did I mention Olivia and Peter are so pretty!

Date: 2010-01-27 12:52 am (UTC)I've been watching True Blood and recently this show called Warehouse 13. Completely cheesy but somehow very watchable....
I better watch some before your vid comes out then... :)

Date: 2010-01-26 08:53 pm (UTC)Well, bf does the pudding dance every time when he comes out of the shower, because he knows it amuses me greatly. Every time. Which just added to the funny seeing Dean doing it on screen. *gg*
