This was going to be an entry based around the last episode of Glee (that was shown in the US, aka 'Born This Way') but it was filled with clichés about accepting yourself so I didn't really want to write it. That, and I've written 4 essays and done an exam this week so I'm not really in the mood for writing a long entry, so instead I've started writing again without really knowing where I'm going with this, as per usual :P I think it's best I make a list about things I want to talk about it, because apparently I'm good at writing those.
1. Doctor Who.
Come on, you should have seen this one coming. The new series (so far), is good. I liked the second episode better than the first, but still...the amount of cliffhangers in them both is astounding. And my brain is going crazy with theories after the second episode. I'm still not exactly decided about River Song- I like the fact that she's a lot more flirty with the Doctor this series, but there's a moment at the end of the second episode (spoilers!) that almost made me pity her. And River Song doesn't strike me as a woman who needs to be pitied. Oh, and Rory? Sweetest boyfriend ever.
2. Harry Potter.
It was only a couple of days after watching the trailer for Deathly Hallows Part 2 that it occured to that it would be the last time I'd ever watch a Harry Potter trailer. It doesn't really bother me, as I know that just because it's over it doesn't mean that I'll stop watching the films or reading the books, and that 10 years from now I'll probably be doing the same. If we were to get all mushy for a moment I'd talk about how it's changed my life and that there quite a few people who wouldn't be in my life right now if it wasn't for Harry Potter, but you'd probably give me a weird look.
3. Summer Ball.
Well, I wouldn't call it a 'ball' exactly, more like a night at the SU where there's marquees outside and hog roast (nom nom nom), a crepe van (even more nom nom nom, I may not be able to fit into my dress by the end of the night), laser quest, bungee run and a rodeo bull. Supposedly. I'm sort of looking forward to it, but at the same I'm thinking I'd much rather either a) have a night in with a tub of Ben & Jerry's, a few films and the rest of my hallmates who aren't going or b) have a night out involving going to several pubs and then finishing and the chinese with previously mentioned hallmates. But...my ticket was £27 and I've bought new shoes, so I'll go. It'll be...interesting.
4. University.
In general has been ridiculously stressful recently what with exams and essays and arguments but I think things have settled down now (hopefully). I finish handing in work on the 10th and then I'll have officially finished my first year...wow, that's weird. I'm staying in accommodation until the 4th June, so I'm looking forward to just doing nothing, catching up with people and generally enjoying this sunny weather we seem to be having lately :P
5. Home.
I've been more homesick this semester than last, so I've gone home more, but I've found it hasn't helped as everytime I go back to uni I feel worse. I don't know what it is in particular that I miss; maybe it's living in an actual house, maybe it's my family. I actually said I missed my brother the other day...well, there's a first time for everything.
6. Other stuff.
Having been a deprived child (and teenager, and everything else...) I've started trying to catch up on all the things I missed, which so far seemed to have included watching Disney films and eating candyfloss. I have a long list of films and TV shows to watch...as I write, I'm watching the IT crowd. I love Moss. He's my favourite. Anyway...
B xxx :)
