It seems like there's a universal heatwave or something is in the works because whenever you turn, there's people being hot and bothered and computers acting wonky because if it. It's sort of amusing and in some strange way, it makes me want to be outside in it, even though I've had, for as far as I can recall, had an incredible dislike for sunshine and sunbathing. Sure, it's nice when it's warm and all that but I've never understood the thing where you sit in a windless corner and put yourself through sweat and all that stuff. But, the weather is interesting. I approve.

Lately, I've grown sort of 'meh' towards TV shows. There's too much meddling with the product from the fans and stuff like that for someone to really appreciate it. I mean, at least I watch a show to see a story, not watch my two favourite characters fall in love and out again etc. (*cough* Veronica Mars, I'm looking at you) whereas movies and stuff are much more rewarding in that aspect because even though the story doesn't get as much time to develop, it's at least a story from end to finish instead of having anything thrown around to improve ratings.

Am I the only one feeling this way? Or have I been in the sun too long?

And since we're in the subject of movies and whatnot, I thought I'd list my current favourite actors and actresses for various reasons:
Claire Danes, Clémence Poésy, Gael Garcia Bernal, Audrey Hepburn, Hugh Dancy, James McAvoy, Diego Luna... I probably forgot one or two but those are my current obsessions.


Also, Claire Danes/Hugh Dancy is kind of my celeb OTP, if I now have such a thing. Even though I like seeing pics of them floating around, I sort of wish that the paps would leave them alone, y'know? I'm thinking about doing a Claire/Hugh picspam. Anyone would be interested in seeing? I have a BUNCH of pics.

I caved

OK, it's official, I suck at hiatuses. I think it's fairy evident to say that I can't stay away for a longer period of time. Anyway, I'm caving and I'm coming back. (Did I mention I hate typing on this computer?) I'll try to update daily but I won't succeed every time.

A few hours ago, the newspaper was here and did a sort of article about me and my sister since we turn eighteen next week (mark it down people, 13th July). It went sort of well and I hope they choose the picture of us in the shade because the ones of us in the sun were sort of fugly if you compare.

I watched an interview with Thomas Dekker about the upcoming season of Sarah Connor Chronicles. I am so excited! Can you tell I'm excited? It's going to be totally crazy and lovely and just... *sigh* Which is why I made a new layout: [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent New codes, header and everything.

And there's been some DW, so naturally there should be thoughts.

Thoughts about the latest DW )

I just saw that Wanted doesn't air here until September 21st. Oh, the horror. I've started to become to psyched about seeing it. Major bummer. I was so looking forward to seeing Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy in a movie together.

I sort of finished my Heroes fan fiction. Sort of. It sort of took a life of its own and I'm considering cutting the Nathan dramatics since it feels irrelevant to the story. I had Elle and Peter discover that Nathan was being rushed to a Company hospital (hehe, a little bit of an Alias feeling, when I'm thinking about it) and then they set out to rescue him, but with what I've started with, it feels sort of like that should be a separate story, but I don't know... I like writing Peter/Elle friendship. ♥

I changed layout again. I know I'm a bit hopeless but I thought that the new year deserved to be celebrated with a brand new layout, featuring all of my favourite boys: Josh Groban, James McAvoy, Zachary Quinto and Sendhil Ramamurthy. Personally, I absolutely love the coding (the navigation header looks smashing!) - what do you think?

The new year, meaning today, started off pretty boring. It's five o'clock and I've done nothing so far, but that's kind of nice but stressing in a way because you feel like the break is slipping from your hands and you're not doing enough to make it interesting. Oh well, I hope everything will get sorted soon and I'll get a good break and be able to do lots of things.

I downloaded Hanson's newest album on a whim and I'm so smiling about it. Definitely not my kind of music any more but it's interesting enough. I remember when my sister was little, she was four, and she absolutely adored Hanson. She listened to MmmBop all the time. LMAO. Good times. Tomorrow she turns... well, sixteen and I'm *this* close on buying Hanson's old album as a joke. Just 'cause ;) And I think she lost her old one anyways. ^^

Everyone must watch/listen to this. Seriously. I'm in such a mood and I totally blame [livejournal.com profile] yaoi_anti_drug for it (who is also new to my flist - WELCOME! :D)



Listen to that voice! I mean, is it so strange that I had a crush on him (Scar, not the voice actor :P) as a kid? What do you think?

I have a new layout! [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent I'm in such a Mylar mood so I simply HAD TO make a layout :D

Now I'm spending my time browsing through YouTube and listening to Swedish Disney songs and reading the comments. Oh, I have so much I want you to listen to, so much you should hear.... *sighs*

Edit: I've also kind of decided that Zachary Quinto is like my biggest celeb crush right now... With Josh Groban and James McAvoy ;)

I really should stop...

Smallville 7x09 - Gemini )

Oh, does anyone have the song that was played in the end of Smallville - Cancelling Christmas This Year by Michelle Featherstone? I loved the little I heard of it.

We saw The Last King of Scotland today in English class AND OMG THE MOVIE WAS SO BLOODY BRILLIANT. SERIOUSLY. I LOVE IT AND I LOVE IT AND I LOVE IT AND I LOVE JAMES MCAVOY AND THE DUDE WHO PLAYED AMIN BECAUSE HE WAS AMAZING! Seriously. Run. Watch. Don't walk.

Can anyone host my mood themes? Preferably someone who has an FTP server because I'm extremely lazy about uploading it to Photobucket and I don't want to install Flock on my laptop. I have all these mood themes I wanna use. I found some great ones.

I'm really proud of some of the icons I made today. This one for example. I thought it was really pretty. I had originally planned to use a SPN icon but the prettiness of this killed me and I had to use it. I'm still two episodes behind on Moonlight which would be distressing if it wasn't so that I hadn't done it intentionally.

Is anyone interested in an icon post? I've also made Gossip Girl, Heroes, North & South, James McAvoy ♥, Supernatural etc.

Sorry for the lack of quality in this post. And my previous. But... y'know.

I've probably overused this icon to the point where I can't use it again but whatever. I was watching a clip with James on Parkinson (coincidentally the same episode as Billie Piper - yay!) and I just gotta say, in case it had skipped anyone's notice:

HE'S ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!

Seriously. So much love. And I so loved when they started discussing sex scenes and stuff and Billie joined in the discussion (how come the celebs NEVER do that on telly in America?) and well... it was just eight kinds of awesomes. I think Parkinson has some of my favourite interviews with my favourite celebs because it seems a lot more than just these shallow questions. The actors get to show off their intellect, which is always great.

Also, hereby creating a tag for James McAvoy (I'll never learn to say his name, I swear) and Billie because... well, they deserve some love. And if Zachary Quinto and Adrian Pasdar can do it, so can they.

Man, I should've been in bed an hour ago but that's fangirling for you.
