Blinded by Science. And Alcohol
In the interest of being social with my peer group i.e Second year forensic science students I along with my friend A (Not my ex-housemate A, someone else. My dissertation partner, in fact) and her sister AA went along to the Forensic Science Society Easter Quiz.
Now before you start rolling your eyes it was more a general knowledge quiz than a science quiz. And so about fourteen people plus the quiz master, one of the Forensic Science and Chemistry departments lab techs were crammed into a random room with some random nibbles, fizzy and fruit juice.
It was supposed to start at seven thirty but that ended up more like ten to eight, some people were late due to the fact they were bringing booze. Now I should have left then but silly me, I stayed. The late comers were dressed up for some sort of pimps and hookers party. How degrading is that? Dressing yourself up as someone willing to trade sex for money and shouting it loudly. You are a Forensic Science Student. You have seen the case studies and the grizzly photos of the rape victim we looked at last semester. What is wrong with you.
You wear a tiny skirt and give the damn quiz master, the department lab tech an eyeful of your underpants (I hope) what is wrong with you, you've had barely three glasses of that cheap wine you brought with you.
Myself A and AA were in a team by ourselves, to be honest we were just there to be sociable and friendly with our classmates but seeing some of them after such a small amount of alcohol. I feel ashamed and embarrassed. I'm just glad none of our lecturers were there to see it.
After a tortuous hour and fifteen we finally made it through the quiz only for the aformentioned team of pimps and hookers to start cheering loudly everytime they get a correct answer.
I was just glad to leave. That was a rotten evening. A, her sister and I are never going to go to one of those events again.
But onto happier things A and I are getting our first round of results back from the DNA sequencing company tomorrow, can't wait to see what results we've got.
I haven't done a Toku ramble in while so here goes.
Geki: TV-Nihon subbed the movie, good action but very rushed in places, would have benefited from another half hour. Looking forward to the team up now.
Den-O: Yes! Ore Tanjou! In fully subbed glory. Fantastic action, good view of Yuuto's lovely rear, Momo, Ura, Kin and Ryuu all on fine form. Big Hana and some great acting from Takeru Sato. All is good and right in the world. If only the Geki movie had been this long.
Go-Onger: As child-friendly, camp and colourful this series is I'm finding it strangely addictive. Hant is adorable, I have to agree with whoever said Sion 2.0. Saki hmm sweet, she deserves not to get shafted like Ran did last year. Renn: Like. Very much, could do with a focus ep. Sosuke: Somewhere in between Ban and Jan which isn't a bad thing since I don't tend to identify with Red as much as I do with other characters. Gunpei: Once you get past the facial gurning he seems to be a good character. But seriously the faces. *Shakes head*.
Kiva: I like Wataru, very conflicted, very adorkable, very well acted I loved how mad he was in Ep 6, he was slinging the Fangire around before his henshin finished. But I think the boots he is wearing are too big for him. Anyone else notice that? Megumi. If I start on her we'll be here all night. So I'll keep it short. LEARN TO GET OUT OF THE GODDAMN WAY YOU STUPID COW. IT IS NOT HARD. SEE THE CAR/WALL/OTHER LARGE OBJECT WITH SPACE BEHIND IT, YOU CAN USE IT AS COVER. Also get a GODDAMN BETTER WEAPON.
Nago. Nago, Nago, Nago. I hope Wataru grows a backbone and kicks his well sculpted butt hard. Many times. He possesses no logical sense, why not let Kiva kill the fangire, he's doing your job for you and he'll be tired and hence easier to kill when you finally don your armor since killing Kiva seems to be your major goal in life.
Shizuka, nice, sweet. Not much else to say.
The 1986 storyline is progressing well, the addition of Garulu to the mix. Otoya is a tad OTT whilst Yuri is entertaining in her put downs.
Looking forward to next Sunday to pick up the raws.
Catch ya later
