Waiting for the Train at Procrastination Station...

So, I just watched The Mummy 3 since it came on TV.... it was an Epic Fail. So many things wrong with it I don't even know where to begin. I know a lot of people didn't even like the first two, but I loved them. So, this was tough.
Oh anyway, I have so much schoolwork to do and I work in just an hour and a half. Ahhh! Too much and too little time and of course I'm wasting it right now..... it never ends..

I need a nice cuppa and time to read...

Sun, 27 Sep 2009 15:45:52 GMT

So, I am trying to finish Breaking Dawn and I just don't understand howI could read the first ones so fast and drag through this one. I just don't love it. Gah. Oh well, I hate not finishing books, and, sure enough, I have numerous books in my apartment that have been started. If only my time was wrapped up in school and work. I mean I work at a book store for crying out loud! Anyway, I'm pretty sure I bombed my biology test. So, I'm just going to postpone looking at that grade for as long as possible... Oi Vey, I will just make coffee and finish Penelope whilst trying to do homework.

School does not equal a magical fairy land...

It is instead a place where dreams go to die! I really, desperately abhor chemistry and lucky ole me gets the blessing of having a Chem 2 test in just 4 1/2 hours. Yay me. So, why am I spending my time online? Don't ask me, I'm burnt out. So now I will go back to multi-tasking studying chem, studying biology, staying awake, and resisting the urge to burn my book(s)...

Nearly a year since I posted last.. not that anyone noticed ;)
Well I have been one year away to university and have learned more about life and its ups and downs in this short year than I have ever learned before. Some things I wish I hadn't experienced and I am still working my way through a particularly difficult time in my life. But I have finally realized that however many tears I may cry or bad days I may have, everything is going to be ok. The people who really love me enough in my life will find a way to stay there and they are the only ones I need. Life is full of hard decisions and situations but I now know that no matter what I may do or go through, I am going to be just fine. :)

And now that I have sounded like a total creeper, I will bid you adieu!

WHY?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!

Wed, 11 Jun 2008 18:57:12 GMT

Part of me wants to punch Steven Moffat in the face.........

that is all.

Sat, 24 May 2008 20:41:21 GMT

So, I was bummed about no new Who this week... and then I saw the preview for next week....*jaw drop* AHAHAHAAH!!
I don't want to ruin anything, but all I was wondering was "so soon?" I thought this wasn't supposed to happen until the last few episodes; or was this a preview for all of the episodes to come? *confused but still really excited*

and graduation was amazing...

oh and I can't wait for Coldplay's new cd!!! what I've already heard is amazing!!! As much as I love their old stuff, this new stuff is so different but fantastic in a totally different way. It's the sort of ninth doctor "fantastic," so go check it out now.

Wed, 21 May 2008 03:13:45 GMT

So, I graduate tomorrow night. The stupid tears are going to come. I hate crying. I'm really happy about school being over and starting at university in the fall but I still have that twinge of sadness. I mean I have to face it that I will never see a lot of these people again. I know that it happens to everyone but it doesn't make it any easier. On the bright side, I got a really cute dress for it. I need to buy waterproof mascara so I don't end up looking like Rose at the end of Doomsday. *blocks image out of head* ahh!

Anyway, Prince Caspian was freakin' majestic. Amazing movie, really good. Go see it now.

No Doctor Who next week?! What's up with that? It's really the only thing that gets me by anymore.

Wed, 14 May 2008 03:00:32 GMT

Ahhh.... I REALLY love Donna....
my last day of school is Friday....
and I graduate next Wednesday....
that is all....

oh and Narnia comes out the 16th!!!! & Indiana Jones comes out the 22nd!!! ahhhh!!

Please give me five hours of my life back!!

Thu, 08 May 2008 02:14:26 GMT

My.brain.is.fried.

I took a 5 hour AP Calculus exam this morning and wanted to die.

Lucky for me I have a 5 hour AP English Literature Exam tomorrow. Yay.........*is not amused*

Tue, 06 May 2008 20:45:36 GMT

So, I just saw the movie "Baby Mama" recently. From the previews, I thought it would be another crap comedy movie that there have been so many of lately. I was happily disappointed! It was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time; I think I laughed every five minutes.

Also, I am super excited about the new Indiana Jones and the Chronicles of Narnia!!!!!!

Since I am on a movie kick, I must mention how excited I was to see that there is going to be a Mummy 3. That was until I found out that Rachel Wiesz wasn't going to be playing Evelyn!!!! She is awesome. I don't know how they could even consider doing the movie without her. I mean even if they couldn't get her, at least give her the respect not to recast her. As sad as it would be, they could just leave that character out and make an excuse for why she isn't there. The new Evie will be Maria Bello, who I don't think is even English. She's good and all, but I can't see her replacing Rachel.

OK enough venting....

On a better note "the Poison Sky" was great. Fantastic reference to series one with the gas mask "Are you my mummy?"
I laughed...hard.

annnnnndddd.......

ROSE!!!!! There she was for a split second!!
I like how the writers give us just enough in each episode to tide us over until ep 11!!! *eeeks*

Oh, and my monitor for my main computer just went into meltdown, so I lost the work I was doing for a class in which my final exam is tomorrow!!!!

Fri, 02 May 2008 02:32:59 GMT

I think that whoever invented the strapless bra was just trying to find a way to inflict torture upon women.

That is all.

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 03:17:18 GMT

My sister came and visited tonight which was quite nice.

I am tired but still have so much to do before I to bed!! Why?!

So, Sontaran Stratagem - good, am excited for next week. In Partners in Crime, the ATMOS sign is on the taxi, which I found interesting. I guess it was forshadowing, but maybe there'll be more to do with it in later episodes.
Also, I noticed that in the first episode the Adipose planet had been lost, to which the Doctor replied, "How do you lose a planet?" and then in Fires of Pompeii the Pyrovile (sp?) said that their planet had been lost as well. What's with the disappearing planets? It's probably nothing, just a little something I picked up on.

I think I'm getting my best friend hooked on DW. Finally I'm not alone! ;)

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 22:04:32 GMT

15 days of school lefft!!! But who's counting? Certainly not moi! ;) I'm definately not counting tomorrow, seeing as I am not going to school then. *devilish grin*

It does quite suck though because everyone is going canoeing and I have to go to work. Ah well, some other time.

Tomorrow is the premier of Partners in Crime on sci-fi which will be good. Of course, I'm excited about Saturday too...as always.

The smell of lovely food is wafting in from downstairs. *goes to investigate*

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 05:50:45 GMT

So, just watched Planet of the Ood, it was pretty cool... I also T.P.ed someone's house tonight. I know, very mature of me, and watched Juno which was pretty cute. Now I am very drowsy and should go to bed.

Clubbing is for Friday nights, not for baby seals.

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 03:39:40 GMT

I just got finished writing a rough draft for a paper due Friday. Not so much fun. I am looking forward to the weekend, not for anything special other than it's the weekend. oh and saturday night of course. So, I watched the '96 Doctor Who movie, because I was procrastinating writing the aforementioned paper, and it really confused me. I think I might pretend I never saw it and actually watch some old Who.

I should be going to bed now, because waking up at 6 a.m. never has been my thing and I only have 22 more days of early rising.

I also realized how much I love buying things online, it gives you a little something to look forward to. except for the decrease in one's bank account, but that can be ignored....

Donna. Human. NO!

Sun, 13 Apr 2008 20:25:12 GMT

Fires of Pompeii was brilliant!
So, I didn't know how well I would like Donna, because the first time I saw her I was still mourning over the loss of Rose and Donna's ramblings just annoyed me. But I think anyone would considering the circumstances. Now I think she's bloomin' hilarious! She has some of the best lines ever. Finally, the Doctor doesn't get all of the great one liners. One of my favourites of hers was, "You fought her off with a water pistol?! I bloody love you!" Ahh, I think this series will be just fine... and by fine I mean FANTASATIC!
Here's to eleven more episodes of greatness!!

Sun, 13 Apr 2008 02:34:39 GMT

I got my laptop today!!!! *is super excited*
I can now sit comfortably in my bed while rummaging through the internet! I am currently stealing internet access from the middle school behind my house, which is pretty awesome. Whatever, I pay taxes. *feeble attempt to justify myself*

Went to a funeral today. One of my closest friend's dad. She never ceases to amaze me. If such an incident happened to me I would be in shambles, but she remains the optimistic, hilarious person that she always is. She is one of the most courageous people I know. Plus she listens to my Doctor Who ramblings without thinking I'm a total weirdo! I remember the first time I mentioned it to her she was like, "Is that the show with the guy who played Puddleglum in The BBC Chronicles of Narnia (Tom Baker)?" Yes, she is awesome....

I can never make myself wear too much black to a funeral. In fact, I was dressed completely in green. I don't know if that's wrong, but my dad's a funeral director and I never want to make those occasions morbid or sad. Weird explanation, I know.

So, I gave in and watched the first episode on the You to the Tube. It was amazing!! I guess I should go search for tonight's episode now..... ;)

Sat, 12 Apr 2008 02:31:02 GMT

So, I just got back from my spring break in North Carolina. It's nice and lovely there and it seemed as soon as we hit the border back into Florida the heat came toppling down upon us. It will only get worse as we get deeper into summer. Maybe I will get a tan this year.... haha maybe not.
Well, the whole time I was away I abstained from a computer and am trying really hard to stay away from doctor who spoilers now that the show has actually started. I'm patiently, extremely patiently, awaiting the premier on Sci Fi on April 25th. It is killing me. Plus Sci-fi cuts out little bits and that slightly upsets me, I don't care how "unimportant" they may seem to be.
Anyway, am not excited to get back to school but am glad to be home.

Hope all are well!!

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 02:59:07 GMT

So, I'm a little worried right now because in an interview with David Tennant on the BBC website he said that the finale of S4 was going to be "bigger, badder, sadder, madder than it has ever been before." (probably slightly misquoted)

Now, "bigger" - great, "badder" - awesome, "madder" - we could all use some more madness.

But "sadder!" If it's going to be sadder than the end of Doomsday, I don't think my poor little heart can bare it!!

Ugggh, guess will have to wait and see...

Oh and I'm also a bit confused right now because...

I was watching S3 The Last of the Timelords the other day and the Doctor says not to touch the paradox machine because it could rip a hole in the universe or some good stuff like that. But then Jack goes bursting in at the end and shoots the thing to bits and then time reverses. What made it safe to touch??

Tue, 01 Apr 2008 19:05:30 GMT

So, my brother is in Iraq and he randomly sends me this message on myspace telling me that he bought me a laptop for graduation and I should be receiving it soon!! My brother is amazing!

I think it's hilarious that he gets so bored in the desert that he just orders things online, and I am happy to be the object of his boredom!

I wish he could just come home, because they are honestly not doing anything!

OK enough exclamation marks...

So, I'm nearing the end of Atonement and I don't really want to finish it because I've been told by numerous people how sad it is. Maybe I can just stay in my own little world where everybody is happy and Robbie and Cecilia live a long life together. Maybe.

The lovely thing called school...

Mon, 31 Mar 2008 18:59:42 GMT

Why is it every time you get rid of a pile of work there is a brand new one that has piled up and is just waiting for you?!

May 16 needs to hurry up and get here!!

Sat, 29 Mar 2008 16:38:34 GMT

When do you know that Doctor Who has taken over your life?

When you relate every song you hear to a Doctor/Rose relationship (or some other companion, for me it's Rose).

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do

Run - Snow Patrol

I know I'm a wee bit crazed, but it's all good.

Just watched Friday Night Project on YT courtesy of Rosetylerrocks, who is amazzazing, and it was awesome!

Now I may not call you Mr. Knightley, I may call you my Mr. Knightley.

Fri, 28 Mar 2008 15:17:01 GMT

So I have just found out that Sci Fi Channel will start showing Series Four of Who on April 18th!!!! This is only two weeks after its original airdate. I think I can handle that... I thought I was going to have to wait forever until they actually started playing on television here in the states.

AHHHH!! Can't control excitement. I was going to try to find them on YouTube (which, let's face it, I might still do) but I think I can handle three weeks as apposed to one. gah!

My parents and friends think that I am crazy. But that's ok, it only means I get to keep it all to myself, no sharing!!

Must now go get haircut...

Just finished watching Emma, and I must say that Mr. Knightley is the perfect man [well human man ;)] tis a shame he doesn't exist.

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 20:19:58 GMT

No work tonight... joyous sleep!!

So I just got a random check in the mail from my workplace for 33 dollars. I am extremely confused as to why. I didn't know they owed me any money. But I'm not complaining, I needed it!

Gas is so expensive.
