You know how sometimes when you've been down for a while and are desperate for anything good, the tiniest little good thing can make you happy all out or proportion? Well, I saw BBC Radio posted that there will ( Read more... )

I might have a new favorite movie, y'all! It's called History of Future Folk and it's about an alien who comes to Earth to kill everyone so his people can take over because their own home planet is going to be destroyed by an asteroid.

Without further ado, I present to you my rendition of Winter Wonderland.

I decided to take a break from my papers (I can't work all the time kileaiya, though perhaps I should work some more of the time) and work on my metamorfic_moon Christmas fic for a little bit.
