So, apparently when I mentioned I was going to be sporadic, what I meant to say was "I will be so insanely busy and stressed from real life that I'm going to drop off the face of planet internet. Will try to send a postcard after the first physics exam! ♥" (I passed. The damage to my GPA remains to be seen.)
I can't wait for the day when professors can no longer assign me homework and essays and exams. And research. So. Much. Research.
I have been packing a lunch every day! Bought a second bento box to reward myself. I just need to find short plastic chopsticks to go with it for my next reward. (Possibly if I manage to shove the gym back in my schedule somewhere.)
I need to start work on my thesis. Unfortunately, the three areas in media I am most interested in writing about are comic books, the internet or fandom. In my department, there is one ok professor who has done work on fandom, and one professor I have never met who does work on the internet. Forget about comics.
I like film! I do! It's just not my passion. I'd rather write about online fan reactions to the new Clark/Lois lack of status quo. Although I might be too close to that one.
But that's not what this journal is for. Fandom!
FIRST, LOOK AT THIS PICTURE. LOOKIT. I don't know who took it, but I LOL that GDL gave the expression for the pic. This is what Ianto would look like in the UNIT cap if Ianto wore t-shirts and con badges.
I have been keeping up with shows and such. The one week I fell behind on Who, Roommate cast me baleful looks until I caught up so we could talk about it. :D
( Cut for ridiculous rambling and some negativity about the latest season of Doctor Who. )
But I adored the scene with River and Amy hanging out. Finally, some family bonding!
I'm having a good time puzzling through how the heck the infinite time loop between the first episode and the last episode even makes sense. Because did the Doctor send the cards to post-Petricore Amy? OMG, did the Amy&Rory timeline start from episode six and then end at ten and then go back to 1/13-5? O.O Must investigate this by watching the whole season again!
...in like three months. :(
Oh, and I have been following the new DC 52 as much as I can. Still don't know what happened to Stephanie and Cass although I heard Simone did a decent job with the Batgirl comic. Still not buying it. Still love Simone. It's possible. Kind of upset about the Starfire and Catwoman things. Am not going to start on a crazy analysis of the Male Gaze now.
*disappears in a poof of smoke*
