Snippet from CH2 of Overture
Because I will never finish the damn thing unless I do things like this.
Jaejoong reluctantly lowered his hand, smiling just enough to show a hint of white. “Your teeth actually aren’t all that bad. Not on you, anyway. On you, they look kind of… cute.”
“But I don’t want to be cute.” Yunho grimaced slightly, as if the word tasted sour on his lips.
{there's a break here because I still don't know what to write in-between EHEHEHEHE}
Then Jaejoong suddenly spun to face him, and the eagerness in his eyes revealed that he was about to voice a very exciting thought. “Let’s make a deal, then. When it’s just the two of us, I won’t cover my mouth when I laugh. And you stop pretending to be so mature and act as cute and cheesy as you want.”

Hmmmm. My current options are:
1) work on Overture
2) start up a multi-chap high school AU fic that I've been wanting to write for a while now (SHUT UP IT'S GOING TO BE AMAZING)
3) write a relatively quick one-shot that will be kind of along the same lines as Questions in terms of mood
Decisions, decisions...
for laur :P
Sometimes Changmin wonders what his life would be like if he had magical powers like Harry Potter.
If he had magical powers, he could Apparate to a quiet library somewhere and finally read his book in peace. Or with a flick of his wand, he could bind all the rest of them, one by one, and stop the ensuing pillow fight around him. Or with one simple spell, he could have fixed stupid Jae-hyung’s broken hand mirror (“Who cracked this? Now I’m cursed!” he had lamented to everyone just ten minutes earlier) and prevented all the bickering and pillow-throwing (the constant loud “Whoop!”-ing from Yoochun, the whines and yells from Junsu as everyone gangs up on him) that soon followed.
But when everyone freezes and the entire room falls to silence with a mere clearing of his throat, he remembers: in this household, being just normal, human Changmin usually holds power enough.
Overture (Chapter One)
In a handful of words: YunJae trainee fic, rooftops, conversations with more tiptoeing than actual speaking. This fic is my baby. My unfinished baby, but still. And it's guaranteed to not be depressing! ;D Jung Yunho had lea...Picture Perfect

Keeping up the whole "let's post really random shit on here because I can!" thing that I started last post, here's one of the Common Application supplement essays I wrote for Kenyon.
Prompt: Along the edge of ancient maps it used to say 'Here there be monsters.' What does it say at the edge of your map and why does it say that?
My map depicts everything I have experienced throughout my life thus far: the people I’ve met, the emotions I’ve felt, and the hurdles I’m jumped, while the borders represent the paths that lie ahead for me. Thus the edge of my map would simply state ‘Here lay the start of new journeys.’ {Looking back, I think it's supposed to be "lie" rather than "lay."}
I don’t believe the unknown is a monster to be frightened of; rather, unfamiliar territory represents fresh opportunities and new perspectives. Fear of the unknown does not impede me from grabbing hold of options in my life that require change; I would not be willing to move from one of the largest metropolitan cities in the country to a small town in Ohio if I were reluctant to live a life different from the one I’ve known.
If I were to limit myself to only the things within the constraints of my map, too scared to fight the monsters that roam outside my comfort zones, I would miss out on the chance to meet multitudes of new people, to see and feel things I never will if restricted, and most significantly, I would let pass the chance to live my life to the absolute fullest. My map needs constant expanding, even if it requires me to fight dragons to reach uncharted lands.

Haha. I get kinda cheesy with the metaphors at the end, but I think I might like this the best out of all the essays I wrote to Kenyon. Especially since I typed this up extraordinarily last-minute and basically ended up winging the whole thing, after weeks of being all, "WHAT DOES THIS PROMPT EVEN MEAN??"
