school ramblings
So, I have the series finale of Torchwood on my hard drive. I'm just waiting for my sister to go into another room so I can watch alone. I can't have any distractions.
In the mean time, I just want to say that so far, I'm loving this quarter. My 'Stars' class is going to be pretty easy, just some basic math. If I do well enough on the quizzes, I won't even have to take the final. My 'Dinosaurs' class is actually going to be the hardest/most serious of my three classes. But still - it's dinosaurs, so it can't be that bad. And finally, I'm really looking forward to my 'Cult TV' class. So far we've watched 3 episodes of Arrested Development and one of Freaks & Geeks. I'm going to have two short papers (2-3 pages each, which is nothing) to write about a cult show and its fandom and the final project will be coming up with an idea for a show that is even more cultish/groundbreaking than what is currently being shown. I already have an idea about what show I want to talk about for my two short papers, but I thought I'd try a poll anyway. I've never done one before. The first two I came up with and those are the ones I'm leaning towards. The rest were on a list of possible options provided by the teacher. I was pleasantly surprised that Spaced and Life on Mars were on there ^_^ Some other shows he mentioned were The Wire, Battlestar Galactica, LOST, Veronica Mars, etc.
Poll Topic for Cult TV papers
In the most recent Cult TV class, we were talking about something and I was laughing to myself, but enough that the teacher noticed and I basically had to 'share with the class.' It's hard, being in a class about Cult TV and fandom. This stuff is a big part of my life. I recognize myself in almost everything we're talking about. And I laugh because I wonder what everyone else is thinking. I love it <3
Oh, and yay! Banana Slugs!!!
