I checked my to-do list last December and apparently, I've done everything except update CC and WMIA. orz. #fail

On my way home, I overheard a conversation among a group of male high school students. I wasn't paying attention at first, since I tend to be lost in my thoughts whenever I go on long walks - until I heard one mention EXO.

I thought it was X.O. - an acronym for a computer shop or food stall that newly opened. But then he said "Kris". I smiled at that. "May dalawang varieties - EXO-K and EXO-M." (There are two varieties - EXO-K and EXO-M). And commented that one is also named "Sehun".

The other two must have given him the look for he hastily reasoned that the girls were always talking about them.

"Nagsasayang lang sila ng pera. Akala naman nila mapapalapit sa kanila kung bumili sila." (They are just wasting their money. Assuming that they would get close to them if they buy (EXO merchandise). I nearly laughed at how bitter his tone was.

The first speaker, in an attempt to redeem himself I suppose or to justify his knowledge of EXO which appears to be unacceptable and unbecoming to his friends, said, "Ginagamit ko lang naman sila para mapalapit ako sa kanila." (I am merely using them (EXO) so that I could get close to them (the girls)).  But I honestly think he is a fanboy. There's nothing wrong with that... but I also understand why he wanted to hide it from his friends.

Another one of his friends acted out in a high pitched tone how girls acted at the mention of EXO. They laughed and walked past me and I lost interest in how their conversation went. All I could think was how to incorporate this in a fic. HAHA.

And that reminded me of my unfinished update. Ugh >_< 2.9k words - I'm half-way there >.> I have the dialogue spine of the second part. I figured that readers would be checking in on me and would want to know what this silly author is up to.

This Keeper, if you haven't guessed, is still stuck in Middle Earth, sometimes in Erebor, other times in Mirkwood. Of course, I take trips to Dale, as well. Shipping Kiliel has taken over my life. 

Between reading fics and making gifs, and the planning (read: daydreaming) of possible fanart/fancraft projects, I do check AFF for news/updates. A stable internet connection still hinders me from lengthy replies/conversations but now that I'm back at the institute, it wouldn't be much of a problem during the week.

If you're into Kiliel, I have a list of recommended fanfics. Just comment below and I'll put up a list with links. I read in fanfiction.net and AO3.

(I also had an LOTR and The Hobbit marathon. Extended edition. Did some reading on the history of Middle Earth, ahaha, mostly about Dwarves ^^")

I will be quiet for another month or so, because Revising month for my NaNo novel started. And I signed up for an online writing class ^^ Plus the drawing exercises. 

And this is how I start my 2015. Hopefully, before 2015 ends, I'd have a novel. completed fanfic, and a decent drawing of Kili and Tauriel :D

My first Kiliel fanart
