Things I haven't done since term ended on the 12th:
- studying for my ICT and history exams.
- writing the beginning of my ICT coursework.
- signing the form to resubmit my old ICT coursework.
- writing my
heroesexchange (which I will never not read as Heroes sex change) fic. (hey, is anyone available for beta-ing the thing when I get it written?)
- beginning to put together a portfolio of work (which, lol, I haven't even done yet) to show to universities in case they ask for it. (Anyone know when they ask for that sort of stuff, by the way?)

I did some sleeping somewhere in there, I think.
SO. Lets talk about Heroes, or more specifically, the Nathan Thing.
I don't know how many of you guys have read
moosewizard's
theory, which is that Arthur has used the ability of putting one person into another's body that present!Peter got from future!Peter and then had sucked out of him by Papa Petrelli (what do you mean, this is getting kind of convoluted?) to essentially take over Nathan. THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE AND IS MY PERSONAL CANON UNTIL THE SHOW FUCKS IT UP FOR ME. I'm particularly thinking this might be what they're doing because, if you've watched The 4400 you'll know that the writers have been stealing huge amounts of stuff from it for this third season, and I'm just making my way through S4 at the moment, and in this season there's an episode called 'The Marked' wherein it's revealed that people from the future with nefarious intentions have been taking people and doing something to them - it's not entirely clear what, or at least it wasn't to me, but the essential idea is that these people are being controlled in some way to do the future people's bidding.
I HAVE NEVER WANTED ONE SET OF WRITERS TO PLAGIARISE ANOTHER SET OF WRITERS AS MUCH AS I DO RIGHT NOW.
Also, funnily enough, the previous episode involved a politician who, in the future, was going to become the president and round up all the 4400 and put them into camps of some sort. Oh Heroes, you have no originality at all.
Happiness meme day 7:
- comments on my
Adam/Elle ficmix. (What? A thinly-veiled way of pimping, you say? Never.)
-
this recap of Star Trek: TOS, Amok Time. It makes me want to pull out my TOS DVDs sooo much.
- I finally found my battery charger for my camera (which, in fact, was right there on the floor by my bookcase, but I'd completely missed it for weeks) and so now I can take pictures again! Look:
The decorations in my room, with the flash on and off (the lights look really pretty, but the dark picture doesn't do them justice), and the main tree in the lounge.
My cards! From left to right:
twistdmentality, daddy dearest,
verav and
ladyanne525. I... yeah, don't know many people. Oh well.
My dogs!
Kes, who is very grumpy at the moment because we've given them both these dog treats to chew on and Mitt is intimidating her about it. This is what she does when she's angry: sulks.
And Mitt, who is far more receptive to having her picture taken, but still rather paranoid about Kes stealing her dog chew.
