- I had some free time so I decided to watch the first episode of season three of Star Trek: the infamous "Spock's Brain". People always say it's the worst episode of TOS, but honestly, it wasn't that bad. Granted, I haven't seen every episode of the series yet, but when compared to what I've seen so far, I can say that there are worst episodes ( Read more... )

- Wha? A friend on Facebook posted that Doctor Who will be filming in Vancouver in October. Awesome news or ridiculous rumour? Until I hear something official from the BBC, I'm taking this with a grain of salt. Why fly all the way over here for forests or mountains or snow when there's plenty of that in the UK and Europe? But it would be great if ( Read more... )

- I didn't have to go into work today, earned day off, but if I had, I totally would have dressed up. A lot of my Doctor Who cosplays don't look like costumes, so I could not stand out but still be geeky. Not that I'm complaining that I had the day off. ;-) Instead, I got to visit my niece and saw her in the Yoda costume I made for her. So cute! I ( Read more... )

- Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! Yes, us Canadians are weird and we have our Thanksgiving in October, but it gives us a nice buffer between big holidays. Enjoy your turkey, if that's how you indulge.

- I enjoyed the electric guitar remix of the Doctor Who theme song from "Before the Flood" so much that it's now my new ringtone. :-) Sadly, I had to ( Read more... )

- I can't believe that it's been ten years since Serenity came out. I still remember the heady excitement the day the movie came out. I actually managed to meet up with some of the local Browncoats and it was such fun, sitting in that theatre, waiting for the show to start. We sang "The Hero of Canton" and "The Ballard of Serenity". There's nothing ( Read more... )

Been thinking about Halloween costumes as a friend is throwing a party next Saturday. After the mad dash last year to sew a costume I decided not make anything new this year. I do have a few options, but I don't know what I should go as.

Options kicking around the house:

- Altaïr from Assassin's Creed. Crazy sewing project from last Halloween. I' ( Read more... )

It was a dash to the finish, but I made it! I finished my Halloween costume on time for Halloween. With a day to spare! Whew. Now I can take a break and catch up on my video games and TV shows ( Read more... )

It's Canadian Thanksgiving on Monday, which means a long weekend! Yay ( Read more... )

- So fed up with work right now. Too many things to do and not enough time to do it all.  Plus there are people at work who are stubborn and don't listen and we're getting zero support. Our manager is supposed to stand up for us, but that's not happening. Sigh.

- Thank god for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Okay, so the second episode wasn't super awesome ( Read more... )

So I've decided on a Halloween costume. Instead of choosing the costume I've already made or the costume that would be easy to make, I have chosen the costume that is hard to make. Yup, no one ever said I was smart. ;-)

For those playing along at home, that means I'm doing the Altaïr costume from Assassin's Creed:
