Congrats to NZ for allowing same sex marriage!!!
And we need to follow suit. Honestly. Civil unions. Don't even come close to a marriage. :/
Procrastination baking is addictive. Although I only do it, when I have an assignment coming up. :|; And to my surprise, I'm not the other student who does it. Phew. I feel less bad. I remembering making scones the night, 4 hours before my exam and I was reciting to myself, while cursing over the sticky dough. Fun times.
Decided to take the hard way. Why do I always do this...? My initial plan was to apply for so and so departments for graduate positions, since I'm in final year and also apply for PLT at the end of the year. Instead I had to suddenly have bouts of indecisiveness and think, do I want to do a graduate position and I weighted the pros and cons but till it came to the cut off date, I had a feeling of dread. To do or not to do?
Of course, the smart and reasonable person would go, apply, who knows what might happened...? And gasp! shock, you might get somewhere. Should have listened to that rational side, instead to the side, which makes question my choices and go, it's a good plan but...
Back to taking the hard way. Most likely it's going to backfire on me. So when you see me crying and writing said post at the end of the year, feel free to go, I told you so. Or silent looks of judging. That works well.
I'm definitely applying for PLT when I finish at the end of the year. That's no mistake about that and with luck I get accepted, then apply for grad during the six months, I'm studying/working at Leos. So at least, if I finish Leos, get admitted around late 2014, hopefully get a grad job and that's 2015 covered. But despite that, am going to apply for grad positions in 2014 and law firms during that time. At the end of the day, I still want to work in family law. Maybe personal injury because I like negligence cases.
Didn't go to Supanova, despite my initial thoughts of oh, I'm not going but then I saw friend's lovely cosplay photos and maybe did feel some regret not going. maybe They looked gorgeous as always. :') But then again, I was lazy and yes. I think it's a sign of old age. D:
Unfortunately, I'm still horribly in love with The Mortal Instruments.
I need a life. Maybe from reading bad fic. And books. :|;
Although not too fond of the main girl and guy. Clary and Jace. was side eying since Ginny and Draco, why Maybe because I found the girl to be annoying and her personality, especially in City of Ashes was urgh. Like a bratty 13 year old and you're what meant to be 15-16 here? Cassandra Clare did mention how she gave her traits, that were typical of male protagonist, which if the main character had been male, no one would have kicked a fuss. I beg to differ. Eragon had similar traits to say Garion, but unlike the latter, the former was a twat. One of the reasons, why I couldn't stand Eragon. Only good character was the dragon. And it wasn't enough to save the movie.
Considering it's odd, as I normally like them, but I prefer the side characters or in this case, Alec Lightwood. I think I've always been fond of the name, since I read Nightrunners and it had a character called Alec. Who was a skilled archer and hello, hello in TMI, this Alec was also another skilled archer. Not to mention, it makes me highly amused that one of the roads near me is called Lightwood. So imagine my surprise when I first read the books and saw the surname and went, that sounds familiar...
The first three were good, which I devoured one after the other. But the last two, I found myself skimming, which is a worrying that. It's either 1) I'm taking notes or 2) oh god, boring. Most likely the second, considering I do a lot of skim reading for uni. So the last two, with the final one coming out next year, was I'm not sure. I think it's because one of my favourite characters was MIA most of the time, he was in Europe with his partner, doing god knows what.
I think what was interesting, was the fact since he's gay in canon and has relationship with the resident warlock in the series...a lot of fans have been curious and have asked Cassandra Clare: the usual question of who tops? Who's the 'seme' and the 'uke'? I admit I'm fond of Japanese BL, however it does get annoying that it's the standard that many fangirls use when determining whoever is dominant or passive in bed. As if suggesting that one is the 'girl' in the relationship. The author had also commented that Alec's relationship, had a lot of fans asking questions, such as the uke/seme thing. It shouldn't matter, should it? A person can appear to be dominant, but might be referred to be held in bed, as opposed to being the pitcher...?
I'm also guilty of this, I don't deny it in circumstances of believing that (for an example) Phoenix Wright. I like to think Miles would be the one to 'top' as opposed to Phoenix because of their personalities. And nothing against Phoenix, but he wouldn't know anything about where to even put it.
Yes, he was an arse to Clary, there's no doubt about it. They both were dicks to each other, so it evened out. Not to mention, he was jealous of the attention that Clary got from Jace, since he had a crush on Jace also. Which was problematic, because he and Jace were almost like brothers and not to mention, they're sworn brothers in arms. Which is hur hur, depending on how you look at it... And I've lost my train of thought. I was certain I had other points, but they're gone now. Thanks self.
And the train has been delayed. :/ I shouldn't really be flicking through so many tabs. Can you believe I left this tab untouched for one hour...?
Happy Birthday Ses once again!
