Thought it was time for an update.
This past weekend was uneventful. I spent time with Erick on Saturday which was fun, but he was getting over a bout of food poisoning which made me sad :( we made the best of it I think. We watched Trekkies 2 (Erick is a Star Trek fan hehe) which was hilarious and scary for a non-Trek person haha. We also saw American Pickers which was fascinating and made me want to go to yard sales and look through people's junk. However, I think they may find that intrusive ha.We also went to a Hollywood Video that is closing (they are ALL closing - is the video store era coming to an end?) and he got a video game book-thing (I'm just so articulate) and I got Away We Go and An Education on Blu-Ray (score!). He also taught me some livejournal tricks and tips which is fascinating because he's not even on livejournal. He's just super like that :)
Yesterday was the Fourth of July and we had a BBQ with the family. Prior to that I spent a blissful 3 hours by myself watching Nana 2 (LOVE, but I miss original Nana/Hachi *pouts*) and Lost in Translation. I wasn't kidding when I said it was blissful. Seriously.
Now, I'm back at work. Currently I'm folding brochures, but after that I will be working on my thesis. Seriously, I'm gonna do it this time. I still feel a lack in motivation - but I just gotta do it, yeah?
Something has been irritating me recently. *warning: rant approaching* Well, longer than recently, but it doesn't matter when it started. I'm just so irritated that people have to be so critical about EVERYTHING. I mean, I'm all for speaking your opinion and loving what you love and hating what you hate - hey, I'm that way too. But there are some people that seem to dump on everything! Can you possibly be that critical about every thing, fandom and person? I understand if it's not your thing or whatnot - but jeez! It makes me laugh really because there are things I absolutely dislike (ahem, True Blood), but I accept that people like it so there must be something to the show and it's just not for me. I don't know, I don't want people to think like me because that would be boring, but I just wish people wouldn't take things so seriously sometimes. Those are my 2 cents that you didn't ask for. ha.
On the plus side, my good friend
aurorasparrow88 and I have created a community for Doctor and Rose lovers on
lobo_malo910 We hope to get things up and running and have people come by to post their fanfiction. It's moderated, but we're easy to please lol. Ooohh and I finally posted some icons. I'm wary about posting them to a community (mostly because I don't think they look nice lol), but I don't mind posting them on my journal :)
Hope everyone is well and I'll speak up soon enough! ha.
