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!

I feel the same way about Glee. Most of the characters seem so, hollow. And the ones I like the most (Kurt, Tina and Puck) don't get all that much screen time. And Finn's voice is so weak, especially compared to Rachel's. But, I still enjoy the show for what it is.

I've actually mapped out a plan for next year that involves accomplishing one of my childhood dreams, becoming more financially secure/successful, and, depending on how those two things go... ::takes a big breath:: ...having another baby.

Thanks. :-) I guess I'll need to change my LJ name, though, won't I? ;-)

I've driven on the freeway everyday in the past two weeks without having one anxiety attack (it's a big deal for me! i'm proud of myself!)

I'm glad your test went well! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you :)

Last week's episode of Glee completely won me over (if only the show had Ms. Chenoweth all the time!) but I haven't seen this week's episode. I agree about Finn's voice, it's just not impressive. And I'm still not sold on many of the main characters, which is not promising. But oh, the music!

MORGANA! That is all. But also, damn that Colin Morgan, he's so pretty. This episode was the best one for me. Am I the only one who likes Mordred even though he's a totally creepy child?

Well, it's not something I did per se, but my babby niece was born on Sunday and I've been all :DDDDD ever since!

You know you kicked ass in the test, missy! ♥

Hmmm, I wasn't super fond of how the episode became the Kristen Chenoweth show, it felt rather contrived, and also Will was an IDIOT. She was super duper adorable though. Such a little firecracker!

MORGANA! <3333 I vastly enjoy Mordred too, so no you're not alone! That scene with him blasting the Camelot knights and running off was so PRETTY and CREEPY and HAUNTING and I LOVED it.

YAY BABY!!!! Congratulations!! :DDD
