My Own Pleasure Zone

Everytime (and I do mean everytime) I try to plug my cellphone in the dark (because the charger is right next to my bed and I only think about charging my phone once I am in bed and the lights are turned off), I think about Sherlock and how wrong he'd be if he tried to deduce my life by looking at my phone.

Also, I have been reading a lot of H50 fics lately and I am at that stage where I think about the characters almost constantly and the crackiest AUs in which I'd like to see them. Combine this with the fact that I seem to have begun a new kdrama cycle and you might just start to understand how I started thinking that a Gokusen (yes I know it's japanese) AU would be the best thing ever.

Think about it: Steve is the grandson of the head of the yakuza (or whatever other crime organization there is in Hawaii) and he's an awesome warrior/ninja but all he wants is to be a math teacher. A math teacher who sometimes fight crime. Of course, he ends up being Grace's teacher and meets Danny. It would be fantastic.

Also, I kinda want and AU in which Steve and Kono are stuntmen. I still haven't figured out what Danny does in this universe, perhaps he's working for HPD and is Chin's partner? I don't know!

You know what the worst part is? I don't even like H50 AUs. What is wrong with me?

My roommates and I are planning a short trip (2 days) to Ottawa to visit the Canadian Museum of Nature next weekend. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions of fun and interesting places that we could see\visit in the area.

How I am feeling right now: Too little sleep, not enough coffee, too much knowledge about placenta smoothies.

I did not need to know that last thing existed. I spent half an hour reading about it. There were pictures. I am officially grossed out. O_o

It did gave me an idea though. In Game of Thrones, Daenerys has to eat the heart of a horse to become Kalheesi, right? What if dads had to eat the placenta to prove that they were fit to be fathers?

I mean, I don't actually want it to happen, I just think it is an interesting concept.

Is anyone on the flist still into Smallville enough to want posters? I have a bunch of posters that nostalgia prevents me from throwing away, giving them away would be less painful.

They all come from magazines, mostly Arthélius and One so they are printed on relatively good quality paper, and are all in good conditions.

Free posters anyone? I can take pictures if you want to see them.

All I know about LeVar Burton I learned from various references on tv/internet and his appearances on Community and The Big Bang Theory. All I know = not much at all.

Despite that fact, last night I dreamed that he was teaching a class on Psych (the tv show) at my school.

One of my class is based on the analysis of a book and I got Sense and Sensibility which I had never read before. I finished the book today and since one of the things we have to do is compare the book to its movie version, I downloaded both the 1995 movie and the 2008 BBC mini series. I watched the latter today and am now in the mood for more period drama mini series. Any suggestions?

Last night I finally watched all three episodes of BBC Sherlock in one go, something I had been meaning to do for a long time. Today I watched the first and third episodes with commentaries and now I am watching the 2009 movie while reading bbc fics. Clearly, I am in a Sherlock Holmes mood.

I know I am late to the party, but I had no idea Matt Smith had auditioned for the role of Watson. I cannot imagine him in this role, but the thought of him and Benedict Cumberbatch running all over London side by side is not an unpleasant one.

First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!! I know I'm late but I was working on the evenings of the 31-1-2 and I was not in a good mood. But now I am all excited for this brand new year.

Second, I am jealous of people who can make lists of their favourite things. Even more so of the ones who can put them in some kind of order that isn't alphabetical. I rarely make them because I always overthink everything and it takes me forever to complete them. I did manage to make make a few top x lists for the end of 2010, but they are in no particular order.



( Favourite movies seen in 2010 )

( Favourite new (to me) tv shows of 2010 )

( Favourite books of 2010 )

( Other things that happened in 2010 )

This made me smile. :D

"The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books listed here.
Bold those books you've read in their entirety,
italicize the ones you started but didn't finish or read an excerpt."
( Ze list )

13/100, well at least it's more than 6. I wanted to read more this year, and I did! 17 books and only six of them were for school. Next year I will reach my goal of 20. [/motivated]

[less motivated] And now back to studying for my German exam...while watching Dexter.
