Nothing to see here, moving on.

Fufufufu... I totally wasted my time today, and I hate doing that. I need to rewrite the start to my novel, and I procrastinated on that for about five hours with messing around on DA, Outpost Gallifrey and baking a spice cake. I have been a bad girl. And this evening I had from nine o'clock to do something useful and I didn't... I hate wasting

1. I tried to get into it during the first season but missed a few episodes and thus gave up as I was a little confused, so really Tennant's debut season was the one that got me. Tennant's brilliant acting, geeky prettiness and chemistry with Billie hooked me in initially along with the first few stories (Tooth and Claw and The Girl In The Fireplace FTW), and then I Wiki-ed Old Who for a few days, found some forums/LJ comms, and watched some Fifth Doctor, and that was that.

2. I looked at the courses and their teaching reputations first, then the grades required and what type of place they were - the one I'm at now had an interesting couple of modules, was pretty (though very quiet, as I learned) but not too far away from London and required ABB instead of AAB, and then I picked it as my first choice after getting rejected by one or two others. I'm very mellow though - I think I would have been happy at my second choice or even my third.

3. Hmm. Most 90s pop rubbish - mostly the awful boy bands, some of the more uninspired indie bands, nearly all present day rappers (oh for old skool hip hop...), and Britney/Avril atm go without saying. I find Nickelback a little annoying too, sorry!

4. Ooh. I love nearly all types of weather - beautiful winter days with frost and clear, cold air have a kind of stillness to them; snow brings out the kid in me everytime; storms and heavy rain mean I can go out and jump around and feel deliriously, gloriously alive, whilst warm, balmy summer days with golden light are just perfect for feeling comfortable and content with life.

5. Hmm! I don't know about irrational, but I'm not good with massive heights and I really don't like insects crawling on me.

I can't believe your parents nearly fed your cake to the dogs!

I'll have to eat the cake myself now, my parents don't like it! :-(

Wow, I don't think I've met anyone who got into DW via series 2 though I guess Tennant was a big draw. Series 2 is my least favourite out of the four (so far - I'm aware series 4 isn't over!).

Yep, most 90s pop rubbish is... well, rubbish. The only stuff I like are odd tracks purely for sentimental/nostalgic reasons, because they remind me of specific people or places when I was little. Haha, I can understand someone finding Nickelback annoying tbh - who knows, I might in a few years. I do change my musical tastes. Like, first year of uni I was very into Keane and REM - while I'm still ito REM, I won't bother to buy Keane's future albums.
