(no subject)
Last day of class of the semester. The next two days are finals, on Saturday I leave for Cardiff, and then on Monday I leave the UK. A lot of the people in my program I've talked to or I've seen on facebook seem to be counting down the days and looking forward to going home, and I'm...rather not. I mean, it'll be nice to be home because there are people there that I miss and living expenses are somewhat cheaper, but I love London. I don't want to leave! XD
I had my last history class in a pub. We were just reviewing so my teacher said we might as well have a drink while doing it. This is one reason I don't want to leave London.
I also wrote some of my Remix longhand in the pub and then in my last class. I'll probably finish it tonight. I'm pretty excited about it. :D
Gordon Brown resigned! And the Tories and LibDems are forming a coalition! This is really interesting to watch, and I'm glad to have been here while something so historical has been happening.
I'm listening right now to the soundtrack from Billy Elliot, which I've seen three times this semester. Just because I loved it that much. Tomorrow I'm going to see Avenue Q, and then Friday I'm gonna see Legally Blonde. That's another thing I'll miss--all the theatre.
Last weekend I was in Oslo, which was awesome, though very expensive. But because of Oslo, I didn't get a chance to watch last week's Bones until this morning. And this one I have an actual reaction for.
HODGINS AND ANGELA GOT MARRIED.
THEY GOT MARRIED.
When they got thrown in jail I was like "oh, they're getting locked in a room together. Something's gonna get resolved." But I hadn't expected them to get married! I am so happy with this episode now, because Hodgins/Angela is totally my Bones OTP.
THEY GOT MARRIED.
Also, in the past couple weeks I've been playing Final Fantasy: Crisis Core. Some thoughts on that as well.
I'm very much enjoying it as a game, though I actually haven't gotten as attached to Zack as I thought I would. I think he's an adorable puppy and I do love him, but I still go for the broody angsty guys, I guess, because I'm still pretty fond of Cloud.
I do appreciate Crisis Core for confirming some of what had been my personal canon. I always maintained that Zack and Sephiroth had been friendly but not BFFs pre-Nibelheim, and same with Zack and Cloud.
That's not what I like to read most in fanfic, but this might be the fandom where I separate canon and fandom preferences most clearly. Hell, I'm a Cloud/Sephiroth shipper (which happens to be my only enemyship), so of course I separate canon from fandom. I like reading Zack and Sephiroth and/or Zack and Cloud being BFFs, but I never thought that's how it really was in the real gameverse, so it's nice to see that confirmed.
Now I'm going to go play a bit more, then finish Remix.
