They showed the Heroes Season 3 Premiere at Comic Con, and there is a live blog at:

The episode is over, now the cast takes questions. OMG I'm so excited! The episode sounds like a BLAST even in text.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Sweet baby Moses, what is going on here? Sean Bean spends the night in pokey after another alleged abuse incident with his wife. People, WHAT IS THE DEAL?!

Meanwhile, in less disconcerting news, I've gone through 4 volumes of Red River and find it "meh". I've also gone through the first volumes of Dragon Voice and Wild Ones respectively and also find them both "meh". Will I keep renting them? Yeah, but I sure won't buy them. Red River isn't bad. It's a bit reminiscent of Twilight though, as an average looking girl suddenly has every male within 10 miles panting after her, she keeps getting kidnapped, and she inexplicably falls for a guy who's kind of scary. Dragon Voice I have a hard time taking seriously because all the action centers around the "deadly serious" world of Jpopdom with all the main characters acting like every Jpop related incident is life or death. Where Skip Beat keeps its tongue firmly in cheek a lot of the time, Dragon Voice is convinced that singers in boy bands want to touch the world with their songs and uplift the world of music. Wild Ones focuses on a girl who finds out her grandfather is a yakuza boss and who falls for her bodyguard. It would work better if they didn't try to mellow down the yakuza part so much. There's a whole "but these are the GOOD criminals" mentality to it that I have a hard time swallowing. Also it's sort of boring.

"Life is the saddest thing there is, next to death; yet there are always new countries to see, new books to read (and, I hope, to write), a thousand little daily wonders to marvel at and rejoice in, and those magical moments when the mere discovery that 'the woodspurge has a cup of three' brings not despair but delight."
Edith Wharton, A Backward Glance

"This world is filled with things that will never make sense. Trying to make so much sense of them will only result in one thing. Spending the rest of your life trying to remember what you were like before any of it mattered."
At Last There is Nothing Left to Say by Matthew Good

Haha, today was one epic fail. We were supposed to watch Mamma Mia today but we didn't reach it in time. So bukas nalang. Hahaha

And with that, my watching schedule got delayed for 1 day.

But that's alright. I have all the time in the world now. I just passed my final requirements yesterday so I can finally say that it's Summertime for me!! Eat your hearts out normal people. I'm gonna have a Big Bang Theory marathon! nyahahaha.

After I watch Mamma Mia, and after I watch In the Heights.

Nyahahaha.

*sigh* here's to a whoooole summer of movies and tv shows and books and musicals yeaaah! =) More tomorrow. =))

 

J'ai 117 dvds. Je compte pas les divx et les coffrets de series télés. Quand est-ce que j'ai acheté tout ça moi?

Watched Without the King.
It's a documentary about Swaziland.
I recommend it if you are interested to learn more about the last absolute monarchy worldwide.
Ils sont même pas 2 millions, environ une personne sur 2 a le sida et pres de 70% vivent grace au World Food Program.
A coté, le roi envoie sa fille à la fac en californie, a une flotte de bagnole de luxe et construit des palaces pour ses 12 femmes.
Docu trés interressant. Avec entretien avec le roi, la premiére femme, la princesse et des habitants politicalement actif (aussi politicalement actifs qu'ils peuvent l'être that's it).
Je recommande.

Hope you have a fantastic day! We'll celebrate properly at JadeCon, baby!

Is it possible to have such a thing as a gratuitous post post? 'Cos that's what this is due to be.

Or in other words, huzzah! My LiveJournal is four years old today! Celebrate! And so on and so forth.

...I've been keeping an LJ for four years. That's a mildly frightening thought.

Anyway, to keep up with my LJversary traditions, I now give you statistics.

Aren't you lucky, flist?

And in the year since my last LJversary I have:
- Friended 6 people
- Been friended by 24 people

- Made 210 posts
- Posted 2,846 comments
- Received 2,935 comments

In conclusion, I have been somewhat less busy this year than the year before. Huh.

On the plus side, my grumpy has gone away.

Well, after going home from work (the woolworths one not the awesome one) injured, the day has been alright. We just had "the best thai meal since thursday" and now I'm going to go hunt some treasure in AOE3 on my new computer and eat American candy and drink Dr Pepper and watch Seinfeld. And as great as all that is, I'm actually wishing the weekend would hurry up so I can go back to work :(

Well the funeral was beautiful and I think it was a really nice day. We didn't go to the wake but I would imagine that would have been nice, as well. (Oh dear, I hope there aren't any English teachers reading this :/) So many people turned up, and although you knew everyone was sad, there was a kind of peace in the room. You could really feel how much she had touched everyone. I learned a lot of things as well about my friend which I wouldn't otherwise have known.

Then after the service we bumped into a load of people we hadn't seen for ages and everyone said my bump was "neat". I suppose they meant that it is tiny and looks like a fake pregnancy belly thing, and that I only look about 5 or 6 months even though I am 7 months now.

James and I and a few friends went out in the evening to play pool and his friend Nick was trying to chase a couple of girls chavs, who we met briefly. Both of them were off their faces and chain-smoking with gusto. The conversation was something like this:

Chav #1: (Loud squealing) Oooh, fair play to you! (Pointing at my belly)
Chav #2: She's just had a baby.
Me: Okay.
Chav #1: She's four weeks old. Is it your first?
Me: Yes.
Chav #2: Are you scared?
Me: No, not really.
Chav #2: Have people been telling you horrible labour stories?
Me: Well I don't really...
Chav #1: Gas and air is the best f***ing thing in the world!
Chav #2: Is it your first? Yeah, yeah! Gas and air! You'll be fine! Don't be scared!
James argues with chavs about existence and/or ownership of a particular pub.
Chav #1: (Thrusting phone at me) Do you want to see a picture?
Me: Okay (Looks at phone politely.) She's lovely. What is her name?
Chav #1: [I can't remember the name but it was suitably chavtastic.] I have a two year old as well, but he's a little s***.

:( Chavs scare me.

About to head off for Brighton - doing a bit of maths and so on, I figure that quarter to twelve is about the latest I can head off and still make my train. The checklist has grown, though - it's almost distressing:

- Costume
- Boots because I am not wearing those fuckers today, no way, not until I have to
- Gladstone bag
- Spare herbs for physreps
- Daz's chocolate memory cards (which I don't think came out quite right but they've been in the fridge all evening so ... we live in hope and if not, hey, green chocolate)
- Little sack o' tradeable crap for Floating Market
- Camera

I was going to bring my laptop but in the end ... too much junk. Thanks, but no. I'm already going to clank when I move. Yech. So instead it'll have to be the notebook that perennially lives in my handbag for the drabble that's been flitting around my head for the last week and I've been too tired to set to 'paper', as it were. So ... yeah, anyway, things to do and places to go. Less nervous this time, though partly that's because I've just woken up after going to bed at near daylight and I'm not last of the great morning people.

Okay, this leave me ten minutes to pack my shit and get out the door. Hasta luego, people - see you when I get back (not before 2am my time, from the look - I'm such a nutbar...)

Judging by the sheer volume of posts up in less than 12 hours, it hardly seems necessary, but for form's sake, let me say this:

If you have not yet signed up for the sshg_exchange, get yer arse over there and do so.

I did.

AHAHAA OH GOD DAVID PLEASE STAY FOR ONE MORE SERIES.

I wish strongly to look at your pretty face while I watch Moffat's Doctor Who for the train wreck.

I HAS DROPPED MY MAI/ZUKO AND KAMUI/SUBARU CLAIM. I'm not too interested in doing shortfic right now. I have crazy Buffy and Avatar AUs to write. AND TB/X ONES WHEN I GET MY FICS OFF MY OLD COMPUTER.

Il y a des posts d'entrées qui vous font mourir de rire comme "Speedracer (R5) screencaps".
Mettre Speedracer et R5 à coté, pour un français, c'est l'apogée de l'antithèse.

J'ai eu un petit coup de blues du à ma descente d'euphorie alcoolisée et je me suis donc mis la derniére partie de "Dance with me" sur l'ordi.
Toute la scene finale avec le tango. Ca m'a remonté le moral. Comme à chaque fois.

Christian veut rentrer dans l'armée.
J'ai donc pris rendez-vous avec lui le samedi 2 aout dans la journée.
Il est sur Londres, je suis sur Londres et je suis sa grande soeur.
On va donc discuter.
Parce que vouloir avoir une life experience avant de se lancer à fond dans ce qu'il veut faire, c'est une chose, mais vouloir être pilote de chasse alors qu'on passe des A Levels dans une Drama School, c'est autre chose.
Alala ces jeunes.

Mon pére n'a pas arreter de me faire baver avec son GPS integré et son systéme kit main libre (tu mets la carte sim à un certain endroit et tu peux utiliser le tableau de bord comme téléphone).
Tssss. Pourquoi je ne peux pas conduire cette voiture !!!!???
ARG. MOI AUSSI JE VEUX UNE 407.
Ou un truc encore plus super, mais déjà, conduire la 407 paternelle, ça me ferait bien plaisir.
