persuasion..*sigh* oh and it's the holidays :-)

well I watched the last hour of persuasion on sunday :-) sally hawkins was a tad disappointing, she seemed quite colourless in comparison to amanda root. I mean I know she's supposed to be subdued, long-suffering etc, but sally hawkins just seemed a bit...lifeless.  Ah well, Rupert Penry-Jones as Captain Wentworth made up for it. sigh.  what wouldn't I give to be in a jane austen novel...you get the pretty dresses, the balls, the dashing gentlemen..the houses...

..back to the real world, if only slightly. It's the holidays! woo! so I've made the revision timetable...now I need to do the revision..hmm. Or I could go and see spamalot  at the palace theatre (it was good, lots of stuff from the films, some questionable stuff...lancelot being gay, for one thing..), go away to see my cousin for the weekend (I haven't seen her in more than ten years though, so it'll be new and exciting), go shopping...

ok so not much revision. there are jane austen dvds to be ordered (becoming jane! persuasion! *squeeeeee*), more books to be bought read...I can revise later :p

looking out for new books to buy read...I've already bought ursula le guin ones, SHE RULES. I need to get hold of the wizard of earthsea books again. any suggestions for new books welcome :-) ooh they're interviewing anne hathaway on some random film channel...aww. she seems nice. but I guess jane austen purists are still annoyed she's not british. *shrugs* can't please everyone, I suppose.
