So, huh. Even though I missed the first, the featured blog on MJ's Ning started today, so I feel like it's okay for me to, too. Or to try to, at least.
What am I talking about?
BEDA. Blog Every Day in April.
I can try. I don't know how long it'll last, especially with the semester winding down. But, eh, who knows?
So. I'm thinking the best way to do it is just be random. I mean, don't we base pretty much everything off of being random anyway? Spontaneity's not something that really exists for me. But random, random I can do.
Anyway, one of the things on MJ's list of how to blog every day is TV shows. Which I can definitely do.
ER. Um...woah? Can I just mention that I haven't really ever watched it. I mean, I used to watch it during the summers all the time, the reruns that come on at like 10 in the morning on TNT (I'm dynamite!). But I guess I sort of missed out on the greatness of Mark and Doug and Carol. I feel like, ultimately, I'm right with it, though, because in everything I'd seen Carter was there. By extension, you ask me who my favorite character is, and I'll tell you it's him (although, I have to admit I'm not too distressed at missing out on the Africa years...). Because the finale was so long, we were discussing things throughout, and we realized that Carter really did sort of become the central character based on the fact that he just kept coming back. You kept hearing about him. And I'll admit, I do love Noah Wiley anyway. :)
My thoughts on the finale (making it known that I don't know anything about the newer cast [and by newer, I mean, like...the last, oh, I don't know, eight seasons]) are pretty much just that it was appropriate. I mean, it made sense. But it was kind of depressing in that there wasn't really anything at the end. It just ended, which, like I said, is appropriate (in that it's still going on, it doesn't just stop), but there was nothing about the actors or anything, which I thought they usually did with big shows like this. But, eh, what do I know? (Absolutely nothing!)
Oh, and Alexis Bledel? Kinda awesome.
In other news, I saw a story on the Yahoo front page (which is where I find out mostly everything) about the guy proposing on the Brooklyn Bridge. And I totally had just seen the episode of CSI: New York where that happened, and I was just all 'oh, crap. This is gonna be just like that...' But I read it and it turned out he'd just dropped the ring in the road and he got it back and all that jazz. It was just weird to see so soon after that episode...And I'd like to point out that I will probably never stop calling Gary Sinise "Lt. Dan."
RL story time! :O
I kind of sorta got a compliment yesterday which made me feel pretty great. :) I offered to carry hot chocolate for my lab partner who was on crutches for her to her next class. She declined, but we saw one of her friends as we were meandering our way and she explained the whole thing to him. She thought it would be weird if some random person just walked into a class they weren't in and set hot chocolate down on a desk and then left. His response was "First of all, that's really nice of you," before he proceeded to break down her options and what he would think. I didn't end up doing it, because, like I said, she declined, but I really would've been down with it, because I really didn't have anything else to be doing (I had another...oh, hour and twenty minutes before my next class). But that was pretty good. ;)
I think I'll make this public. At least while I'm doing it. A BEDA experiment, I guess.
By the way, apparently I can only type DEBA, as opposed to BEDA. So, y'know, if that ever pops up...it's because I have selective dyslexia issues.
Peace
