Who-hoo I still speak fangirl. See: squee!It's been a while since a tv-show/character/movie/band member has made me go incoherent. But I can't help it, Generation Kill (HBO, 2008) just nails it perfectly
( Read more... )
Waah! Now I just want to watch it again... But it's a bit late to start tonight. xD
Also I have to let you know that I write the whole damn paper! And I went a bit over 8 pages! \0/ Victoryyyyy~ It was complete bullshit but who cares. I don't think they will fail me as long as I returned something, at least that's what I hope for. >_>
The thing is that women can join the armed forces in the US but they can't have posts where it is known that they would be in combat. (It's crazy policy if you ask me) so that's why there are no women in the show, they can't even join recon! So it's not really the show's fault, they were just being accurate.
I don't remember if I mentioned this already but I told you that the guy who plays Iceman is from Denmark or something but actually he's Swedish!
Okay enough babble, see you tomorrow! (I haven't packed anything yet!!!) I hope my car will start tomorrow...
Yeah I did bring it, so you can borrow it but I need it back asap so I can watch it too... xD
I wonder about that too, do you think we will get them in January? I mean I doubt the teacher will read them when she's on vacation.
Well they can only do so much, the situation is really messed up there after all, bombings and road side bombs etc. But the policy is that if the situation is high risk women shouldn't be there (like for instant recon or front line fighting) but now that the troops are occupying the countries it's harder and harder to draw the lines on what would be "safe" enough for women etc.
Yay you got yourself one. ^_^ So I gathered that he's your favourite, care to share why?
