( Hai there new Heroes episode )

I really need to get me more DW icons.. o.O

( doctor who finale )

( spoilers and all that jazz for TW Season 2 finale )

Dammit, I've been rick Roll'd twice today. =_=

( Here, have a TV meme )

Stuff you find on teh intarweb.

And I know I'd be freaked out if that happened during an airing of Dr. Who. o.O

Dear Paintedmask,

*kicks you. hard.*

Sincerely, me

Oh yes, it's that time of the week: To all you dial up users: one screenshot under the cut

( Some fannish thoughts about this weeks Torchwood, Supernatural and Stargate Atlantis (including House, Psych and TDS )

Hokaay.. That was supposed to be a quick, small rundown of this weeks personal TV highlights. o.O

Also, and this is still very, very, very tentative on my part and I really don't mean to decry anthing but.. the strike may or may not be over soon.

I can't stop flailing about the latest SGA episode. You guys, I really really can't.

*flails*

One of these days, there'll be a proper update. Just.. gimme some time to get my head clear, mkay :D?

Well, hello online world. *tired wave*

So sorry for my long, unannounced abscence, but things were rather busy lately. I've got a job now, university started (which I haven't yet attended due to the new job) and I've got a guest since mid-september (and before you ask, no I don't mind witness ;P). And since I've had training the whole day ever since September 17th, and I can't really check my lj at work (well, I could but don't really want to), so. :x

I'm working at a CallCenter right now, and the training I recieve is inbound work for one of the cell phone companies in Austria. On October 22nd I have an exam at the headquarters, and if I pass that I'm allowed to phone. Not to brag, but if the test is like the ones we have at the call center, I don't think I'll have much problems. *knocks on wood*

gosh, that new keyboard is tough getting used to

Anyhoo.. trying to keep up to date with my shows, SPN is not posing much of a problem seeing as my newfound flatmate is also addicted to it. :33 I'm doing my damned best to stay spoiler free this season, but alas it is very, very tough not to click on these shiny links. But I've manage well so far. I've also got some serious catching up to do with The Daily Show, but at least that means that I'll have lots of entertainment to look forward to once I manage to do that. ^^

So looking forward to the weekend. Tomorrow and monday I have training on the job, meaning they let the rookie talk to the customers. Mwehe.

Food, now, and a shower. And after that sleep. Got an early start tomorrow. >_>

Dear Muse,

you want me to write what? With whom? Settled in which time? You've already tortured me two weeks ago! I really really hate you right now. *sulks*

Sincerely, me

Zomg I have the ending I have the ending I have the ending! *bounces around*

Just.. the stuff between chapter 13 and the ending is still... missing. But it's only 4 more chapters!

Current word count: 13,757 (minus a few words, though: brief commentary for self references, and such). I don't think I'm going to crack the magical 20,000, but hey, it's already the longest piece I've ever written so far.

Dear muses (PS: who are you, actually? I know my old muses have abandoned me long long ago),

please not be jumping me with another of your crazy-ass, totally horrifying ideas concerning one of my characters when I'm about to go to bed. I really, really don't want him to turn out to be an offspring from some batshit insane demon who could kill any of my characters in the blink of an eye.

Kthx? Bai.

Grudgingly, me-who-is-about-to-go-to-bed

The latest picture of Joe Flanigan (shot by Joe Mallozzi) has my mind spiraling down the gutter, because seriously? Smoking a cigar shouldn't look that obscene.

Oh look, the sun is out again!

*whimpers* THE DAMN PLANTS ARE FOLLOWING ME!

Holy crap.

Two days into writing the Super Sekkrit Fic Project (temporarily titled "Walking a thousand steps in the sand is like coming home". Yes I know, it's a bit.. weird. Hence the "temporary title"), and I'm up to 6900 words (13 pages in word, Verdana 10 font).

Two things:

1) I am a slow writer. An incredible slow writer. If I even write at all, which happens once every.. two years or so.
2) Taking my plot outline into consideration, I'm currently not even halfway done. Perhaps a bit more than a third.

*flaps away* And dear god, even my mind tied itself into a knot when I tried to think about how Babylonian names where pronounced.

*oogles the NaNoWriMo homepage* Oh god, I'm not even going to think about it. Sooo not going to think about it.

*rubs hands* I don't want to see any botany for at least two months. Not that I could, though, now that I've gotten myself a job and will spend 6 weeks in training, starting September 7th.

Aaanyway.. ready to tackle this fic project I've been brainstorming on for the past.. two weeks or so. I'm just hoping it'll turn out the way it should, because the general idea really intrigues me. And yes, I'm being deliberately vague. Just.. give me five years or so and I'll have it finished.

*insert amike bouncing up and down her seat*

Imagine this setting: Me sitting on the laptop, mum sitting on the couch and watching TV/telephoning. Suddenly I hear the Doctor Who opening theme, and I start to look for my cellphone (because it's my ringtone) but I couldn't see it, and after a moment I remembered that it's actually still in the bedroom. Cue me being confused, since I could hear the cell phone rather loudly, until I took a look at the TV (mum was watching something on BBC Prime), where Christopher Eccleston just walks into the TARDIS and talks about adventures and stuff like that.

And that would be the moment when I start to bounce on my seat, ignoring my mum's attempt to shut me up (XD), because they're airing Doctor Who on BBC Prime! I can finally watch it on the big TV screeeeeen! (Unfortunately I don't get any other BBC programme besides BBC Prime, home of East Enders, The Weakest Link and various cooking/change your home shows).

*dances* Ok, not that I haven't already seen Doctor Who, but.. on TV!

Waaah I need DW icons!

Time to clean up this thing, I guess. I've decided that commenting on badfic is a waste of time and really.. the x button at the corner of my tab does serve a purpose. But it was fun while it lasted.

So, I guess this'll be a placeholder for now. As well as an opportunity to crack bad jokes and attempt some nifty comments in the fw comm. God I suck at these.

*whistles off*

Not dead. Well, the journal, not the journal-owner..

Remind me again why I actually want to graduate from school? ¬_¬

*waves*
