Can we talk forever about LOTR and John Thornton? (=
Friends?

[caffeinatedlife]

John Thornton in LOTR, hmm...I think I would've self-combusted from all the hotness if Richard Armitage was in the movie, LOL xD

Adding you back now! =D

Wow, you list Good bye Lenin! on your movies, that's awesome. And a fellow caffeine junkie! Want to give it a try?

I have Byatt's Possession on my TBR list for this year (have to wait until the end of the school year though to read it---I want to really enjoy it, lol). I also want to read Bleak House at some point, the adaptation was fantastic =)

I was reading your profile and 1) awesome that you're into history! I studied history during my undergrad and loved reading about it growing up, 2) HBO's Rome kicked major butt.

Friends? =)

[caffeinatedlife]

I admit, the reason Possession caught my attention (other than the fact that a lot of groups on GoodReads were featuring it in their monthly group reads) was teh fact that Jeremy Northam is in the movie xD lol

Agreed, Gillian Anderson and the entire cast was just brilliant. I need to get the DVD sometime this year xD

Adding you back now =D

Wow, we share so many fandoms! I love Doctor Who, Glee and Merlin too :D. And your gif is ace. Friends?

[solitary_zero]

Yay! :D Man, Doctor Who was epic! I laughed, I cried (lots of times) and I'm still reeling after that fantastic ending. I really love how RTD chose to end it all. Have you seen it yet too?

Anything else you'd like to add?:

[caffeinatedlife]

Band of Brothers is awesome! I'm psyched that they're finally releasing a miniseries from the Pacific front (been hearing about it for years but it was never for certain when it was coming out) but nothing can ever replace the awesomeness of BoB xD

I have Douglas Adams on my TBR list this year xD

Friends? =)

Pablo Neruda's poems are lovely but my favourite poet is Federico Garcia Lorca. His work always leaves me feeling nostalgic somehow xD

Sure, am adding you here and on Tumblr! =D
