Lucy's Life

Yes, I know, I suck at this LJ thing. I never post, I rarely comment. There's no excuse for me!

*sighs*

Life is busy, as always, and I've been in an awful mess with my professional life. I've been taken for granted and there's nothing worse than that, I think. But, as always, I'll survive - I'm making plans for the new year and it seems very, very nice.

So... I saw this review at Adara's LJ and I thought it would be nice to do it too. So, here it is

( Collapse )

</em>That's it, folks. I'm going away tomorrow, to spend the New Year's with my close family and some friends and it'll be awesome and I'll try to be back and post pictures and be a better LJ friend next year!

Love y'all!

 Yeah, it's been ages I know that. Let me just say that life has been crazy and I have been crazier. But I'll get through it, as I always do...

I'm here with fic! During this past week - along with stelablack  and ms_pollygreen  - this crazy idea took form: Lorelai and Rory would probably LOVE Glee, right? And they would probably be all fangirls about it,  right? And Luke would probably be caught in the middle of it all, right? 

And then, a fic was born. It doesn't have much of a plot, but I had the most fun EVER while writing it... So here, enjoy!

 Yes, I'm a bad LJer - I know that. I always plan to post again, but then something happens and I... don't post. Nothing new here, I know. That's why I decided to join twitter - at least I can update from my phone...

Aaaanyway, let me summarize the past month or so...

* about the guy! He left town without talking to me - I avoided his calls and he ended up leaving me a voicemail where he told me that I was being a child for not accepting his offer to be my friend. Yeah, right. A couple of weeks later, I found out that he told a friend of ours why he runs after me like that: he believes he "broke me". You see, ever since we broke up, I've been single, and he thinks he's the reason. So he wants me to see how perfect his life is, so I can move on. See? Isn't he amazing? (/sarcasm) Yes, I haven't had a serious boyfriend after him - but it has nothing to do with him! I'm fine as I am, thank you very much. And, yes, I'll keep ignoring him.

* in other news - this time happier ones - I'm currently on the process of "getting back" with my best friend. Yes, the one from all the drama last year. I guess we both realized our friendship was bigger than our prides and we decided to talk about it. We were both sorry for hurting each other and we kinda felt like what we had is worth fighting for - so we are. And it feels good and it makes me happy. So YAY.

* fangirl!Lucy is also very happy this days. All my shows make me giddy and anxious and hype every week! I've been watching only four shows (Lost, Grey's, Private Practice and Bones) and they're all great! So I kinda have to enjoy it while it lasts... =-P

I guess that's it for today. Just here to let you know that I'm alive and all... LOL

I'll probably be back soon with pics!

• 19:01 Heading out to my father's aunt 88th birthday. Sounds like fun! (/sarcasm) #
• 20:19 I love the fact that people seem to be surprised with the fact that I'm "all grown up now". I'm turning 25 this year, so yes, grown up here. #
• 23:10 At least there's good food here. And my cousin is here - he's always fun! #
• 02:13 Just got home from the party - it wasn't that bad. The sad thing is that it is now too late to get online. Well, there's always tomorrow... #

Yeah, I know I should post, like, for real. Believe me, a lot has been happening in my life. But I won't, not today. I'm here with fic. Again.

Title: Reality and Feelings
Dated from: 2009
Rating: PG
Pairing: Sawyer/Kate – with a little bit of Sawyer/Juliet and Jack/Kate 
Spoilers: Up until 5.08
Summary: “It’s not as easy as it once was, to live a life of lies. But he’s good at it still and he knows it’s something he has to do to survive. (…) A year goes by and no one comes, and he’s still James LaFleur, captain of a wrecked ship…”

Author's Note: I have to confess that I never imagined I would write one Lost fic – and I’m on number 06 already! I would blame it on Polly, but she would thank me, so I won’t! Anyway, this one came to me after the last episode and it was all about Sawyer – until Kate decided to join. So it’s a lot different than I thought it would be, and I hope you’ll like. Italics are from Lost episodes and in italics and bold is The Hush Sound’s Hurricane – the song that made me write this thing. I would like to remember, again, that English is not my first language, so I’m sorry if you find some mistakes in there.
 

(Reality and Feelings) 

Because the girls left me all alone online (drama!Lucy on!), I was able to finally finish my Lost fic! And almost in time to celebrate Polly's new moment in life! So I guess I won't complain about being left alone and all... LOL

Congrats, honey, you deserve it!

Title: The World in Broken Lines
Dated from: 2009
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Sawyer/Kate (Lost)
Spoilers: To be safe, up until 5.06
Summary: “He still sees her when he closes his eyes. Her dark hair, her green eyes, the freckles he noticed the first time he looked at her. When he closes his eyes, he sees her smile and hears her voice telling him to shut up do go do something useful and he can’t take it.”

Author's Note: For the first time since I started writing Lost, James talked to me, not Kate. So, I’m a little scared and a lot worried about this one. ‘Cause I never write male characters – I find complex, confused and crazy women so much easier! So, yes, it’s Sawyer’s POV, ‘cause he was the one talking in my mind. And I really hope I did it right, ‘cause I love Sawyer too much to mess with his voice! As always, I would like to remind you that English is not my first language, so you may find some weirdness and mistakes in the story. I apologize about them.

In other news, I'm going away for a week, so the second part of the picspam was delayed. But it'll be posted when I'm back! =-)

Yeah, you read it right. I'm doing a picspam. Of Pacey & Joey. From Dawson's Creek. It seems like we're back in 2003! The only difference is, well, back in 2003 I didn't have a LJ - actually, I didn't even know LJ existed! =-)

I'll start explaing why I'm doing this now - the thing is, after a chat with Adara and Tathy about DC, I couldn't stop thinking about them. You see, the channel that used to air it here in Brazil, doesn't anymore and I hadn't watched in over a year. So, yes, I downloaded some of my favorite episodes and, yes, I felt the hype all over again. Because Dawson's Creek once meant the world to me...

Apart from personal stuff, Dawson's Creek was my first fandom - and I don't think I even knew the word fandom back them. I made some great friends discussing about the show, people that are in my life to this day. And Dawson's Creek also gave me my first ship - again, I didn't know it had a name - LOL. I fell in love with Pacey and Joey from the first episode I watched. I never doubted it, I never saw anything different but True Love there. And I never lost hope...

I used to have a fansite about them, called True Love Brasil, and it was because of it that I started writing fics (always in Portuguese back then), I collect images, screencaps, videos... They were my first obsession - and you know what they say, you never forget your first! =-P  So now, watching it again, I can't help but ship them with all my heart - and because I like to share (and because I secretly hope to turn Adara into a PJo shipper), I decided to do a picspam.

Just a couple of comments:

1) I used all my old images - so they're not the best. And I suck at photoshop, so I couldn't do much with them.
2) It's kinda big - I used my favorite scenes and quotes and I talk about them, 'cause I'm crazy like that.
3) I was going to post it all once, but I have 37 images - with quotes and comments, it was going to be this huge epic stuff. So, I'm doing it in parts. First, S1, S2 and S3. By the end of the week, I'll be back with S4, S5 and S6. And next week, I'll do a finale picspam!

Enjoy and, please, give me feedback! =-)

 New layout! Kinda. Lol

I asked and Polly (ms_pollygreen) made me the most beautiful header EVER for my pretty LJ! And I'm so in love with it! =-)

In other news, I finally finished the translation that was annoyingly long. And now I can write again, which is good, 'cause I have three stories - from diferent fandoms - wanting to be written! Last night I started writing a FNL story and it almost killed my brain! LOL I'm out of practice - I need to write a little more... =-P
