Meme Day Seven and General Musings
I'M FREE!!!!!!
It's perfectly acceptable to start a post off this way. School is over, and I'm only waiting on one, hopefully not horrible, grade. So far I'm on the Dean's List, and I'm praying it stays that way. Today, I did absolutely nothing. I slept, ate and played on the computer. Best feeling ever. I could get used to it.
I've caught up on some TV, including the Good Wife. How is this show so good? Not a twist is forced, they actually give layers to characters (I'm still waiting on Will a little, but other than that) and the storylines go there without being preachy about it. I salivate at this father/son showdown between the ministers, mostly because I really like the son. And Anika, what? When is she not awesome? I still have to catch up on Glee and I need to start watching Misfits, Walking Dead and L&O: UK. I'm on it over break, I swear. I'm also on video making and story updating. You know, things I like to do when school isn't consuming my life.
I've spent Sunday and today watching dance clips and movies from Bollywood, because, you know, that's what I do. Why did it take so long for Madhuri and Ash to dance together in a movie? I feel cheated. And God help me, I'm really falling for Priyanka Chopra. I saw Kaminey and she actually blew me away. I say this because I HATED Fashion, the movie that won her all the awards and acclaim. And then I saw her interview with Shahid (whom she's totally dating, no matter how much she denies it) and she was kind of bitchy and honest and not pageant girl about it. About time. I also finally saw "Ishq." Oh 90s masala films, you are so bad you're good. But it's Kajol and Aamir and Ajay. Really, even in cheese they're superb. I also may have rewatched the finale of Merlin again. I still want to marry Angel Coulby's voice. And I still want to be Gwen. Seriously, she is the beacon of light on a horribly inconsistent show. I still loved the ending though, not gonna lie.

WHY ISN'T THIS MOVIE OUT YET!!! They had me at Nicole Beharie. Please hurry up with a trailer so I can get even more excited, thanks.
Right, on with the show then. This is going to take months to finish, I'm sure. But I need to get it done before break is over. I need to finish something non-school related for once in my life.
Day Seven: A Female Character That Needs More Screen Time
Bonnie Bennett (and her family too)

Honestly, I don't need to do an epic post. It's BONNIE "M F ING BENNETT"!!! Simply put, she's better than you. Actually, her whole kick-ass, female, witchy family is better than you. There is no Mystic Falls without them and it's high time folks around there appreciated their badassness. I understand why people hate Bonnie. I'd hate her too if I didn't freaking love her so much. Forget more screen time on TVD...just give these women their own show. Problem solved.

I have no runners up for this one, though I thought of several women. Bonnie's awesome just overwhelmed me on this time, lol.
