Hey all! If anyone's interested, I started another blog. I call it The Life of a Layabout; it's mostly about music and movies and shows I go to.

It seems that fandom is my main draw to live journal, so that might explain my long absence. Several things have changed since the fall of 2006, which was when I stopped really writing on LJ. So, to sum up my life since then...

THE GOOD
-I've graduated from college!
-I have been accepted into the French graduate program at a major university and they're offering me lots of money!
-I received a massive scholarship that will allow me to study at a Belgian university starting this September!
-I got a boyfriend! He's all musical and Greek and stuff! OMG!
-I went on a trip to the UK, New York, and... I've made lots of friends!
-I now have two nephews! Max is almost four and Nicholas was born last month!
-I'MSOEXCITEDABOUTLIVINGINEUROPEFORAYEAROMGOMGOMG!!!!!

THE BAD
-I graduated from college! (all my friends are younger than I am! They're all at Choir Camp right now and if I think about all of them having fun without me I just cry and cry and cry)

THE UGLY
-I seriously crushed on this poor boy in my Latin class and drunkenly confessed that I liked him whilst attacking his face (with mine, of course) Oh, stupid boy. He didn't quite feel the same way... quite.

Ahh, that was a refreshing waste of time. The damn boyfriend needs to go ahead and call me so I can go to sleep!

Okay, so I know it's a small world and all, but I still find it a bit weird to see a girl I went to school with in Entertainment Weekly. Brea Grant has been on Friday Night Lights and is now gonna be on Heroes? That's so weird! She was just a year under my sister at school and let me tell you, that was a small school.

I know this is basically me pointing and shouting, "hey look, I know someone on TV!" but... dude. I know someone on TV!

So I've created a journal for my fan fiction (and vids, etc) called tuesdaysfic. Original, eh? I'll slowly be moving my Buffy fanfic over there, too. I'll probably still post in this journal whenever I update something, but I wanted a place where it was just my fic. Sometimes I talk about myself on my livejournal, can you believe it? It completely detracts from my fandom :)

Feel free to friend the comm! I only made it a community so that it would still be attached to this account, so don't join or anything. You won't get to post! :) But anyone can friend me :)

Well, here I go again. I need my Doctor Who and I need it now, but apparently I'm going to have to use my imagination to satisfy my needs.

For those interested, I had a bit of fun making a promo video for this fic (Find it here at youtube.)

And without further ado... ( A New Journey )

Because I hate myself (and love Doctor Who) I'm going to share with those who want to point and laugh at me (and admire my mad skillz) a video exerpt of a Doctor Who skit my friend Leah and I did... at French camp. Be warned, it is very ridiculous. The sonic screwdriver is an electric toothbrush (which I thought was brilliant, actually).

Apparently I have mixed views on this video. Regardless... voila!

God, I *hate* Doctor Who. Do you see what it's done? It's pulled me back into fandom and it won't let go. Now I'm going to be all antisocial and blog about it and make videos and write/read fan fiction and browse the web for Doctor Who icons.

I couldn't be happier :)

Title: Remembering
Author: itmustbetuesday
Pairing/Characters: 10/Rose, Donna, Wilfred
Rating: PG
Warning: SPOILERS for season four finale and all that came before it.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, I make no profit, I only aim to ease the pain the BBC has inflicted upon my soul.
Author Notes: This is my first Doctor Who fanfic. It shall not be my last. Comments are encouraged and highly, highly appreciated!

( He’d been several months on his own, traveling, facing new dangers and meeting new people, but the loneliness remained... )

How can Doctor Who make me equally happy and miserable at the same time? I'm so glad I'm watching it, but I just boo-hoo while doing so, which is unusual for me, because TV shows have only made me cry three times before this. When Billy died in Ally McBeal was the first, when Anya died on Buffy was the second, and the second and third deal with the stupid separation of the Doctor and Rose. Now, admittedly I probably cried the hardest for when Anya died (I was so shocked) but Doctor Who hurts because it takes away hope and gives lonliness and no love and... *sigh* I should be asleep, but I can't.

I love my poor, lonely Doctor.

Well, I finally made that Doctor Who video I've been obsessing about. There are minor glitches, but WMM won't stop shutting down, so it's hard to fix them.

I hope you enjoy! I'm in love with this song in relation to Doctor Who. It's just perfect.

Hello friends! Any of my Doctor Who friends have any good fanfic recs? I'm big on Doctor/Rose, but I don't want anything weird or graphically sexual, I don't like that with my Doctor Who (unless it's done well, I suppose). I just want something GOOD. I've been searching all week and all I find is the same stories told VERY badly over and over again and it makes me sad :(

I need something to distract me from comfort me during my grad school applications. I kind of want to bash my brain in.

Oh, and hi! I know I haven't been around for months and months.

So, I've changed my LJ banner, but it's hiding behind my layout! I gave it the proper number of pixels for the height, but I remember at one point someone said to put (!)s in the code. Could someone help me?

????

Fixed it. Thanks, babyelefant!



Also in life, I have finals next week, and it's also production week for Carmen. YAY CIGARETTE GIRLS!

"The Lost Summer" earned Best Angst RU at Round 19 of the Love's Last Glimpse Awards. Thanks to whoever did the nominating!

REPOST WITH THE TITLE THE 11 LAYERS OF (YOUR NAME)

If you go to this movie, just ignore the fact that the director likes CLOSE UP IN YOUR FACE shots and that Cameron Diaz is auditioning for the role the entire time. Instead, please enjoy the beautiful Jude Law, whose character they so obviously crafted into the perfect man and whose babies I want to have. He's mine.
