I AM NOT DEAD AND ENJOYING 2011 SO FAR. Sorry for the lack of posting.

** Happy birthday indigo_5 ! I hope you're having a fabulous time on your holiday and I can't wait for you to come back <3333333

** I tried, approved and mainlined s1 and 2 of The Vampire Diaries AND IT IS SEXY AND GLORIOUS AND CRACKY AND AWESOME. I was really surprised by how much I ended up loving it.
I have 21268726948572 pairings. My favorite Salvatore bro is Stephan. I hate Bonnie. I love Damon, Elena, Tyler, Jeremy, Caroline and Matt. I HATE BONNIE WITH THE BURNING FIRE OF A THOUSAND SUNS. I worship Katherine and her psycho bitch slut ways, SHE IS AMAZIN. S2 is awesome on the Damon/Katherine/Stephan front and the Tyler/Caroline (and Tyler/Jerem at the start which was pretty much the main reason I started watching the show in the first place) front. I love that Jeremy is part of the gang now. I LOATHE Jeremy/Bonnie. I don't like Elijah's lack of charisma, I have a hard time buying that he's one of the Originals. I don't like Rose. I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR KLAUS, especially if Guy Burnet gets casted.

** BEING HUMAN. I watched the us pilot and it wasn't horrible. I didn't hate it but I didn't particulary like it either. However, since America gets their remakes right 1 time out of 3, I'm hoping it can step out of the original's shadow and find its own route. So I'll be there for ep 2.
I've also seen 301 of the real deal and IT WAS WONDERFUL. I didn't realize how much I missed them. I like the new setting, I like the welshness of it (hai thar Rhys!). I really loved the Mitchell part of the ep even if I saw it coming from miiiiiiiiiiiles and George and Nina were fantastic. I dug the two new characters and the hints about the new arc (it's so going to be George. I'm calling it.).

** I'm still doing Harry Potter and the Ultimate Reread. It's one chapter a day which will bring us to the release of the last film and it's giving me warm fuzzies every day. I'm reading these as a companion and it's awesomesauce. I'm not looking forward to the saga ending for good but I have the most amazing time rediscovering my love for it.

** KURT/BLAINE. I LUV IT. voldything pimped lots of fantastic fics to me and I'm like, REALLY REALLY REALLY EXCITED FOR GLEE TO COME BACK OMG. I can't wait to see more of them. I've definitely jumped ship and left Sam/Kurt for good. I wouldn't mind it if it happened because I still ship Kurt/Happiness, mostly, but I just can't really buy that there's a chance that Sam could be gay anymore. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY. I WANT IT.

** I've almost finished s1 of Leverage and IT'S ALL FUN AND LOLZ, I LOVE IT. So far my favorites are Parker because she is cray cray fantastic and Hardison for his extreme geeky ways (and his love for Doctor Who! Dude is awesome.) but I really love the team as a whole.

** I booked tickets for me and jedicathy to see David Tennant and Catherine Tate in Much Ado About Nothing this summer. I am SO EXCITED to see them reunited <3

** RL wise I ended a very close friendship which had unfortunately turned sour and toxic. I made peace with it quite some time ago and I think it's for the best, even if I never thought we'd come to this. Looking back 4 months ago I sure as hell wouldn't have seen it coming.

SIGH.... HP.



With your fics and films and ridiculously cracky lead actor and books and AWESOME LULZY MUSICAL.



Why are you doing this to me ?!



*bursts into tears*

*gah* So much to update about. SO LAZY.

So last weekend I invited fairy_bliss, foui_the_brave (aka Untitled) and ephyse to watch Children of Earth Day 5 all together for the first time (*hmmph* *kicks Eph*) and do a little marathon of the whole thing afterwards to celebrate Torchweek.
So we did watch Day 5 in shocking silence because honestly, I for my part, was fucking horrified. But in a good way ! I think that the series as a whole was one of the best piece of television we've had all year and I WILL NEVER FORGET JOHN FROBISHER. HE WAS A GOOD MAN *dies a little inside*

We had a lovely chat afterwards (outside, under the sun *gasps*) and fairy_bliss left us for the night because she had to wake up early the next day for the french HP premiere (which I'm glad she did now because she was able to warn me about the big cuts they made in the story, more on that later).

We never got the COE marathon under way because we realized that all in one go so soon after having seen it would have probably ended with us killing ourselves. We did rewatch *that* death though and I didn't cry this time :) (which meant that I actually heard what they were saying lol).

So we had a comedy night instead, and it felt really good after all the gloom and doom fest of Torchweek. We watched both Alan and Jimmy Carr'stand up. I only knew Jimmy Carr through the big fat quizz but OMFG HE IS HILARIOUS. I mean you want to slap him hard because his humor is horrific and he has the most annoying face ever but you can't help yourself from laughing like mad. His impro skills are really impressive.
We also watched some bits and pieces of Tim Minchin'So Fucking Rock (♥) and Foui introduced us to Eddie Izzard which I knew by reputation but I'm so glad she did because INSTA LOVE for the man. We finished the night with Let's Go To Prison at Eph's request and she loved it so much that I could talk her through snagging my Arrested Development s1 boxset :D

Thanks again girls, I had a lovely geeky weekend ♥

I have now my hands on the 4 stand up shows of Jimmy Carr (watched In Concert and Live) and Eddie Izzard's Dress To Kill (which was watched and LUUUUVED).


Those days I'm cheating on my OTP because I kinda... Fell back into Ten/Jack and am reading anything post COE with them in it. I blame it on my love for COE!Jack and his awesome character development, and me being obsessed by the follow up to the series.


I also fell back into Dexter because I caught up with season 3 in two days AND IT WAS MADE OF WIN. Well the ending was less good than the previous two finales but the Dexter/Miguel Prado storyline kept me on the edge of my seat. The actors had an incredible chemistry ! Oh and Michael C. Hall ? Still nom nom nomable and brilliant *__*

I still have Alias season 5 to watch and Chuck to caught up with and then I'll be able to try something new.

( The list of shows I would like to watch next )


In other news I saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince yesterday with the bro and fairy_bliss, and apart from the bad seats, I COMPLETELY LOVED IT !

It was gorgeous, both incredibly funny and dark in places. The young cast was the best they've ever been so far and the others were excellent, as always.
JIM BROADBENT STOLE THE WHOLE MOVIE FOR ME. HE WAS UTTERLY PRICELESS AND SPOT ON.

( spoilery ramblings about the good, the bad and the ugly )


All in all a big YAY for this one. I can't wait to see it in all its IMAX glory when we'll be in Glasgow !

I finished reading it so that mean that I'm fully back *waves*

I can finaly read my Flist and answer comments, yay !

I didn't read the other reviews yet but here's mine.

( Can you guess my favorite chapter ? )

J'imagine qu'elles ont été déjà posté 50 000 fois partout mais pour ceux qui débarquent comme moi, voici les couv du dernier bouquin d'Harry Potter qui sort en juillet :

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Perso je trouve la adult cover vraiment très jolie, et la children uk bien marrante lol.

Dernier tome à jamais.

*soupir*
