I got another new theme! This one's by novaless, who makes great clean & simple themes. I found her via the sortofbeautiful community. It's a Jacob/Bella community, and even though I don't really ship anyone in the Twilight universe, I think that would be my choice if I did. Granted, I don't know that much of Jake's character, but what I've heard reminds me of Ron: just ( Read more... )

I've been watching The Buccaneers these past few days.

I've made a wonderful discovery, and in a nearby apartment store of all places. The Buccaneers is finally on region 2 DVD! I've been hunting for it for a long time, and now I found it for under 10 euros. :-O I highly recommend it; it's based on a novel by Edith Wharton and tells the story of four young wealthy American women who come to England to ( Read more... )

Happy Boxing Day! :-) Christmas is starting to come to an end. I had a nice, traditional one, and Santa was more than generous. :-) I can't decide whether my favourite present was the gift card to a bead shop or my new creamy, softer-than-soft bath robe.

I've enjoyed my Christmas DVDs, too. I finished Cranford yesterday, and I can't recommend it ( Read more... )

First: they're going to film the Epilogue of DH and probably use the trio instead of some older actors. SQUEEE!!!! :-D Not on them using DanEmmaRupert, but on them filming the Epilogue. It's a perfect, positive ending to the story! <3

Onward...I've started shopping for my Christmas DVDs. :-)

I'm so, so happy! I found one of my old favorites on DVD on Amazon: Berkeley Square (1998).

First an itsy bitsy meme for which I was tagged by hollydoodle19. :-)

1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about themselves on their journal.
3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people.1. I get obsessed easily (no, really ( Read more... )

LJ sure is quiet these days. :-) I wonder if people are out enjoying the last scraps of summer? Over here, the leaves are already falling and cool winds are blowing, so my thoughts have turned to warm shawls and cups of steaming tea.

Anyway, yesterday I watched one of the movies I bought for my summer holidays and never got around to watching: ( Read more... )

I finished watching the 2006 version of Jane Eyre tonight. It was entertaining and skilfully made, but I felt it lacked passion. Mostly I thought it was because of the actor who played Mr. Rochester; to me he was more playful and flirty than the grumpy, ill-tempered man of the book. I really prefer Ciarán Hinds's Mr. Rochester in the 1997 version; ( Read more... )

Yay, I got myself some new DVD goodies! I felt I deserved a treat after plowing through a very busy start of the term while sick (I'm better now, thank heavens). I got the 2007 version of Mansfield Park, and yes, I know it supposedly sucks and changes the fundamentals of the story, but it was on sale and it has the oh-so-handsome James D'Arcy as ( Read more... )
