A little update

+ I never realised this before, but so much fun can come out of watching a show you've already seen in fastforward 2x. I watched an episode of Robin Hood Series 1, purely for research purposes (and I'm not lying - I needed to do it for a fic), and decided to cut down on the 45 minutes of film to half by having everything whizzing forwards.

It can actually be quite addictive to watch films at a higher speed, LOL! Likewise, it can be addictive to turn of the sound and watch RA move veeeery slowly and deliberately... *drools*

Oh, busy days coming up! What are you going to study? Have you studied it before? :-)

Not leaving RH completely behind, I hope?

Oh no no no! I'm not leaving RH behind at all; I simply meant that as a 'setting is aside for this minute'. There is no way I'm moving on from it just yet! :) There's still so much fun to be had from it.

I'll be off to study a combined course of Creative Writing and Drama, which should be very interesting. I've never actually done any drama properly, but I'd like to give it a go and see what happens. Creative writing is kind of self-explanatory since I love writing. :)

And I've just ordered a couple more things with our brilliant RA in them. If there's one thing I'm dedicated to doing in life, it's watching Richard's inspiring performances.

Sounds wonderful! How inspirational! Where do you study, in London?

Aaah, more gorgeous RA! What did you order?

(I'm like a mad interviewer today. Curiosity is my middle name, LOL.)

Well, I like being questioned, so you're more than welcome!

I went on a mini Amazon spree and got Moving On, Shakespeare Retold and Marie Lloyd: Queen of the Music Hall which sounds interesting. I also bought 'The Vicar of Dibley' boxset because although I've watched the ending with Richard in it, I'd love to see the whole thing since I do love it. Such hilarious humour!

So basically, I have some mega watching to do!

I'll be at University of Greenwich in London, which is one of the most beautiful places in the city, in my opinion! It's all green and countryside-like, even though it's only fifteen minutes out of London's centre. Perfect, really. :) I hope it will provide me much inspiration for writing.

Greenwich is lovely! I've been there once! It was wonderful! :-)

Gawd, you sure treated yourself! Good for you! I think VoD must be one of my favourite shows ever, long before RA made an appearence there. Friends say I'm a bit like Geraldine, though not quite as big or intense. ;-) VoD is a treasure!

Mega-watch, oh it's a tough life! That and Greenwich will certainly give fodder for loads of writing. :-)
