An apple a day... may come in useful when the Bill Fernys of life pop their ugly faces out from behind the hedge.

FWAP-thud!

I need a metaphorical Samwise right now. Or at the very least an occasional Stanley Spadowski.

Thank you Youtube for stealing another three hours of my life.

Ben and Jamie get whumped! There is dancing, humour, betrayal, and Two + Polly as an unstoppable team!

This is my new favorite episode! ^_^

And Two... Ah, I adore Troughton's Doctor so much - and escpecially after recently peeking into some of the Tenth Doctor's novels. I'm sorry, NuWho fans, but there is NOTHING awe-inspiring about Ten that isn't outshown millions of times stronger in the Second Doctor.

Oh, and the Macraaaaaaa! (because they're just that amusing, even when attacking Jamie in a poisonous-gas-filled mineshaft -- why can't they come up with this sort of creative complexity in modern television? *sigh*)

I didn't remember to post my poem here yesterday, although if anyone is a music nerd and is interested in a Theory-based poem, you can read it here.

Now, then... Today's poem! There are cherry trees already beginning to bloom, the weather is gorgeous, splendid, unbelievable for this time of year! I wish all of my classes were out of doors!

( Day 3 - An early spring! )

It is late. Roomie is noisy. This calls for a meme!

Book #1: The Odyssey by Homer: The Norton Critical Edition (translated and edited by Albert Cook)
Book #2: Dragonsinger by Anne McCaffrey
Book #3: Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
Book #4: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling
Book #5: Homeless Bird by Gloria Whelan

Tell me, Muse, about the man of many turns, who many ways wandered when he had sacked Troy's holy citadel; he saw the cities of many men, and he knew their thought; on the ocean he suffered many pains within his heart, striving for his life and his companions' return. She was about to look when a hissing to her left attracted her. "For he is forced to make everybody like him." "Reliable historical sources tell us this much," he said. Immediately I knew it would be the homeless bird, flying at last to its home.

LIFE ON MARS FTW!

...that is all. ^_^


[PS: I love you YouTube!]

Aaaaaa! They got 10 to say "Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow!"

*has mad attack of geek-flail*

Pure crack. In a good way! Oh, I'm gonna miss Ten.

(And as for the Doctor's musical abilities... um... not sure what to say here, except that he hasn't gotten better with age. Might have more luck with a recorder...) ^_<

I wish I could have been at the event they filmed this for!

Meaning: all my stress just vanished in a puff of overload. I feel great!
Working on papers is fun when you get to mock 3rd century monks! ;D

Alsos...

New Chuck episodes on Hulu! *dies of squee*

I totally would watch this just for Agent Casey, though... His painfully deadpan cynicism is hi-larious. Plus... Hello... Jayne is a super-spy? (There's one ep where he's washing the Crown Vic and his conversation with Chuck used the word "Shiny" one too many times. I nearly lost it! XD)

This will be a confusing Christmas holiday. Nine ACGAS cooking? *tries to picture Nine serving bacon and toast to the Farnons*

Beige Puppy! *huggles*

Taking a break from homework stress. I checked up on LJ and Facebook, and suddenly thought... "I should make more Fivey icons!" Unfortunately, my conscience kicked me back into submission, so I am posting this instead as a sort of I O U.

Back to work...

Did you see the news? Global warming is a hoax! I already knew that.

But more importantly: I have survived the swine flu!

Do I at least get a T-shirt?

Alas, no. However, I do get to add it to my growing list of near-misses. It's a wonder I'm alive at all, really. Anyways - got back to the apartment just in time to use up those parsnips I bought a week ago. Yummy stew is now on the stovetop, and I'm hoping that my classes haven't gotten totally beyond me while I was snoozing around, coughing, and watching the Fifth Doctor run around the television screen.

Also - being sick for a week has done it. I didn't think it was physically possible, but I am now sick of tea. And coffee. And any hot drink really.

Germs are stupid.

But life goes onward! Time is unstoppable! Haha!

*trundles off toward the kitchen*
