This week has been real eventful for me. Really. And it's still not over.
- On monday, I was supposed to visit the biochemistry department of the Karolinska Institute (a well-known and respected medical institute in Sweden) for general information and a lecture on the effects of alcohol. Because I tend to be late for those kind of things, I decided to go early so that I could make it on time. But...life kind of hates me.
First, I missed my bus. I was about 15 meters from the station, and the bus left. So, I had to wait about twenty minutes for the next one. Thankfully, it arrived quickly, and the other bus which I needed to take was already there. I managed to get to the institute a quarter before the lecture was supposed to start.
It took me almost half an hour to find the biochemistry department. The thirty or so (give or take ten) people I asked had no frickin' idea where it was, and the friend I called for help couldn't give me good directions. Thankfully, an english couple managed to aid me a little, and I found the lecture hall - and I was seriously pissed when I found out that I had passed it three times. I ended up being late, AGAIN...but at least I didn't get yelled at, and the lecture was very interesting. I failed to understand some parts of it, but the lecture WAS intended for university students (in fact, we had a class sitting right behind us).
- I started to watch Women's Murder Club! I love those law and order type series, and although Women's Murder Club doesn't leave you glued infront of the screen, it's far from bad. I am liking it so far (I have seen three episodes out of the ten currently availible). And in the ninth and tenth episode, you get to see Joe Flanigan!
But his hair is flat. It's like a crime agains't nature.
- Watched the two new episodes of Torchwood today, Adam and Reset. Adam was not such a great episode, to be honest - and I really disliked the character Adam. Intensely.
The rest of the group? They were great. Tosh was much more confident (which is sexy), Ianto was slightly creepy but somewhat attractive in his psycho killer mode, and Owen...
Wow. Ridiculously cute, with the glasses and the nice guy attitude. Figures that likes Tosh only when his memory is completely screwed with. I, however, did NOT like Gwen plainly confession love towards Jack.
Reset, however, was brilliant. Why?
MARTHA JONES. I love that character. She is awesome, especially when she is in her field. 'Tis a good thing they managed to save her from having an "Alien" experience with the Mayfly. Her conversation with Ianto made me think of "Mr and Mrs Jones". xD The red cap thing was great, especially when Ianto became lost in though after she asked how he and Jack...dabbled. Is that what they are calling it these days?
Owen dying at the end of the episode was a huge bummer, though. Poor Tosh - she finally gets a date with him and he dies.
- It's Valentine's Day! For me, it means nothing, but for those lucky ones that aren't single...have a good day.
(To celebrate the day, despite being single, I actually ended up flirting today with a straight guy. He's hot, though, so it didn't really matter).
