exsequar: (Merlin - Morgana the fey)
Comment here and tell me something you did recently that you're proud of and I comment and tell you that you're awesome and I'm proud of you and shit. And if you see anyone comment and you know them (or understand why they'd be proud of that thing), then you comment to them and tell them why they should be pleased with themselves.

Go go go! I want to know about how wonderful you've all been! START BRAGGING! :D

Just watched last night's Glee. I still don't know how I feel about it! It seems to me like every character is on a yoyo - one week Rachel is hateful and petty, the next she is generous and lovable. Mr. Shue swings between bizarrely selfish/deluded and the most human, likeable character. Finn is likewise very up and down (and am I the only one who doesn't like his voice? It's not... strong. It just is. *shrug*). (Emma's the only truly consistent (good) one, and I do adore her, but she's also very strange, in a rather cartoonish imitation of a very serious condition.) I still feel very much like I'm watching abstract constructions of weird black humor, not people. It's entertaining, sure - I laugh, and I love the music, but I am having such a hard time CARING. Ah well. I'll keep watching, because damn those musical numbers rock, and OH KURT.

Last week's Merlin was EEEEASILY the best of the season so far. See? Just needs moar Morgana! She was all lovely and gaspy and big eyed and porcelain and ugh I have such a massive girlcrush. She's, um, not the best actress in the world, yet she still makes me care for her a lot. Idk! Merlin was rather faily again, but as usual, heart in the right place, yadda yadda. They haven't made Arthur very sympathetic this season though have they? Hrm. I did love the episode though. I like when they go outside Camelot.

Winchesters were tonight! Can't wait to download tomorrow! Right now - Castle! :D

Oh, the reason I was so behind on TV was that I had my first grad school test this morning. I think it went quite well! I don't know how he's going to grade, and there were some things I was a little uncertain on, but overall I'm optimistic. Which is good, because apparently grad school grades severely affect your ability to apply for grants in the next few years. Wut. o.O Well, it's not like grades have ever been my problem (coughtwotimevaledictoriancough) so I'm not particularly worried. :) What I am worried about is this big NSF proposal I have to write in the next month - urgh. Scary!

Anywhoodle. YES. Tell me about your awesomeness!
exsequar: (Dublin - wifey)
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you guessed that sound can only mean DUBLIN RELATED GLEE, then you are QUITE CORRECT! (The only time I get THIS EXCITED is about Dublin, for future reference! Hee.)

Okay, so! There's this company that offers short term apartment rentals in various countries.

THEY HAVE MY OLD APARTMENT BUILDING IN CENTRAL DUBLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT. OMG. WHAT.

You guys.

I CAN GO HOME.

I'm pretty sure I can't express how unspeakably thrilling this idea is. That place.... that city holds my heart, and that building is where it grew 20 sizes. I lived there for 9 months, I loved, I laughed, I cried, I threw parties and experienced things and people and met and lived with some of my best friends in the entire world.

One of those friends, Emily, found this link and proposed that we all (five of us) go back next summer. FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A rent of ~120 Euro a night, split between five people, is basically hostel level, and we could stay for at least a week and be within walking distance of all our favorite places, and just relive the magic.

I AM SO OVERCOME. :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
