Does anyone feel like making a header for me? Pretty please? My paid account is expiring soon. Which is really sad because that means that I'll get back to those hideous ads that I've come to loathe with a passion and now there's no escaping them *cries* And if I'm going to be subjected to them, at least I can have a pretty layout for the one I have at the moment is... well, not to my liking. Anyone feel like they want to make one? Comment and I shall supply you with pictures and stuff, if you'd like.

Right now my life is going pretty smoothly. Sure, I'm under a lot of pressure but it's okay. I spend most of my time in school, and talk to friends and then I basically come home for dinner, watch an episode of Pride and Prejudice ('95 version for the win :D) and then check my email on Hany's computer (Internet only works on one computer and since he - he's my mother's husband - is obsessed with Fifa 2007, we can't check our email most of the time) and then go to bed. It's become sort of a routine.

Still haven't had the chance to watch any more Greek because of well... no Internet, but I did catch a few minutes of Life on Mars on television the other day (it went on BBC Prime) so I took a few pictures, screening the TV, so I have a few John Simm pics and one Guv and one Sam/Annie. Oh show, how I've missed thee.

I hope that Internet starts working on my Suse soon because I'm dying. The network card isn't working, or it doesn't connect with the Internet and the second harddrive I have installed on my computer, containing stuff like music, I'm not allowed to delete anything there and apparently my computer recognizes it as being part of Windows, which is weird. *headdesk* How do I get Internet working on my Suse?

I was browsing through LJ and I got the idea to start using Component again as a theme and then when I looked to see what layout it was that was my latest Component layout, I fell in love with it all over again. I bring to you, the simple, kind of thrown together but yet awesome layout consisting of Doctor Who and The Sound of Drums (3x12) :D [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent Indulge in the John Simm awesomeness ♥

Sorry for spamming your flists ;)

Soon....

I've uploaded a series of new icons. Mainly consisting of actors and actresses but never mind... they're awesome!

Currently downloading the Supernatural Christmas episode and hopefully it will be downloaded soon. I can't wait to see it, everyone's been saying that it's been perfect. Or at least that's what I've heard. Me = excited :D

I've been so seriously neglecting my John Simm love! So sorry darlin', but you haven't exactly... been more awesome than usual since you've pretty much disappeared from the radar. I'm thinking about convincing my sister to see Enchanted with me. It seems made of win.

Anyway, now I have to go and start a pile of laundry.
starsthatshine: (doctor who - evil mastermind)
You know how you've all had a few God blessed weeks without that much John Simm squee? From me, at least.

Well....

I dunno how to say this but...

EXPECT THEM TO BE OVER!!!!!! :D :D :D

I don't know if I should slam my head against my desk or embrace the hotness and loveliness that is John Simm. You see, even though it's exceedingly fun and every day is Christmas... It can become tiresome. 'Cause then I'll have my head filled with Simm 24-7. Not in a stalker-ish kind of way but in a way that I drool at everything I see and I get a really huge need to see his movies.

Now, who's the villan in this drama you might ask? Who was it that put me in this agony-filled heaven? Well, I point my finger at THIS post (even though I love my Simm, I must say that he should eat a little... *avoids my sister's piercing gaze* He looks a bit too thin)

Consider me eternally doomed.

Huge happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] stars91, I hope you have a great one.

Michael Fassbender was on Poirot yesterday. OMG HOW HAPPY I WAS!!! I totally forgot how incredibly unbelievably handsome he is. Definitely one of my new squee subjects. ♥ I mean... *drools insanely* He's right up there with John Simm ♥ I don't have a Fassy icon! *dies* I will go on a search and not return until I have at least two :D Also, I'm thinking about writing a detective story à la Agatha Christie because they don't really make them like that any more. I love it with all the drama and private detectives and stuff.

Gotta go and drool over him with my sister :D

Also, I kinda love my sister, I just wanted to say that. ♥ *hugs*

I'M DONE WITH MY MASTER FICATHON ASSIGNMENT!!!! Wohooo!!! I've sent it to [livejournal.com profile] flawedthoughts but if anyone else feels like betaing it... (I have a feeling she's busy) Lemme know. Anyway, it wasn't as hard as the Nine/Rose fic I wrote that was filled with clichés, but I've been lazy, you see. Very, very lazy. It didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped, but at least I got to write my own "how the Master comes back to life" fic, which I'm a bit nervous about, because I don't know... it might be a little bit convenient but as someone said: "Sci-fi doesn't really have any real rules". I'm going with that. Taking it to my heart and all.

Unrelated but yet related: JOHN SIMM!!! ♥ I must see at least one of his movies or other projects that-are-not-Life-on-Mars-and-Doctor-Who. *sobs* Anyone?

Also, Alan Rickman is kind of drool-worthy. Can anyone explain it his supersexy voice doesn't count because well... he's even a bit attractive when he doesn't speak. Damn, now I want to watch Alan Rickman movies also. There's no end to my fangirlness these days it seems.
starsthatshine: (skins - not perfect)
I'm still a lot behind of my flist and I still won't be able to comment for another few days. My brain is dead, I bought a new magazine, some new clothes, got a little less than half Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows left (not sure if I like it yet, WHERE ARE MY BABIES?!) and I just feel generally uninspired. However, I do still love my John Simm &hearts , Dexter, Doctor Who, Heroes (I'm not in the mood of watching returns of it, so therefore there's little squeeage at the moment, but it will come really soon. Heroes friends, hang in there ;)) and all those other shows I'm seriously neglecting. I haven't been able to see an episode of Supernatural since Bloody Mary a few days ago but I'll see what I can do about it.

I'm thinking about ordering make-up from EverydayMinerals.com, has anyone else bought make-up there? Is it good?

*sigh* Gonna watch some old!Doctor Who (it's good but they talk too bloody much at times and it makes my head even deader. They need to show things more rather than just explain it) and then there's Midsomer Murders ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ (you can't have summer without Midsomer Murders!). Then I'm off to bed and tomorrow I will paint a house at work and hopefully finish Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Would anyone be interested in a reaction post for me or has everyone done it too many times already?

Also, stealing this idea from [livejournal.com profile] anythingbutgrey because I thought it'd be fun (don't hate me if you think parroting *this isn't an essay or such but still... I like the word 'parroting'* is really bad)
[Poll #1027152]
starsthatshine: (heroes - mistake to call)
I'm back from my dad which means - COMPUTER TIME!!!! Woho!

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] privateuniverse, I hope you'll have a great one.

I will therefore try to do the following things during the rest of my summer: LJ, write fan fictions, write my reply for the Master ficathon (going great, anyone up for betaing? [livejournal.com profile] flawedthoughts, [livejournal.com profile] anythingbutgrey, [livejournal.com profile] yourfavoritesky?), listen to music, make icons and stuff like that. I have these Master/Lucy vids in my head so if anyone wants to make one, I can give you song suggestions ;)

I won't be able to check everything you wonderful people have written so if there's anything supercool or stuff that you want me to check out, don't hesitate to give me a link (really, don't hesitate, just paste it all in there :D) it's just a flist on over +700 pages isn't really what I want to spend the rest of my day reading (I'm a member in too many communities *cries*)

Now I'm gonna fix some John Simm goodness because I STILL LOVE HIM SO!!! *fangirl squee*

Speaking of, huge welcome to [livejournal.com profile] liz_104 and [livejournal.com profile] erykah101 :D I hope you'll both have wonderful times here on my flist :D
starsthatshine: (life on mars - take my hand)
I haven't written anything of substance for a few days but that's because I've been so exhausted by work that writing something about fandom or otherwise is nearly impossible. Right now, I'm on my lunch break and will soon get back. Once I get home, I'll continue to write on my Life on Mars story (spiced wih an essence of Doctor Who) and most importantly - take a shower. I've been cleaning away graffiti and I can honestly say that I loathe the bastards that put it there. There was dust everywhere, my hair feels like shit and my hands are dry.

Anyway, back to my Life on Mars story. I love Samland and the trouble I'm putting him through in my fic. I really feels like it could be an episode of Doctor Who, or Life on Mars. Maybe I feel that it might be a bit too close to the show, I don't know, but still... I have everything mapped out in my head and I can't wait to get it down on paper.

Currently, I've written 16 pages and 7018 words. I'm more than certain that the story will be over 10000 once I'm done. But it's drawing near the end of the story and I'm actually surprised how Sam/Annie centric the fic header will be when I post it. All the other pairings are more or less implied but Annie/Sam is not really implied because it's very true to their relationship on the show.

Also, before I forget: HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY MR JOHN SIMM!!!! You own television.

2 days till my birthday *squee* And tomorrow [livejournal.com profile] motoredxheart has hers *hugs* Lots of birthdays :D
starsthatshine: (doctor who - thanks for asking)
Lucy/Master icons + Just Like Heaven (movie) icons. 60 icons in total (it's almost like I planned it! :D).

My birthday is in two weeks and I can't figure out what I want. Okay, something that's not completely insane like... well, if you've read my entries at all this week, I can guess that you can guess what I'm thinking about *feels a bit funny and stupid on the same time* Oh, now I do know :D

Mini-wishlist for my birthday:
01. All classic Doctor Who episodes that can be found online burned down on a disc and sent to a mailbox near me
02. All Life on Mars episode, just like stated above.
03. Paid account (one can never have too much of that :P)

Anyway, I'm a huge silly mood and I'm totally writing a Life on Mars/Doctor Who crossover. Just so you'll get a little taste:

“DN…” Gene seemed to have trouble getting the words out without shouting, “DNA?” He suddenly turned to Sam, “Is this some fucking joke, Tyler?!” Some of the Gov’s spit landed on Sam’s cheek as his boss’ face had the same colour as a tomato.

Still very much unbetad but in context it will be hilarious (or so I think). I just have to force a certain someone to put Twilight aside and watch heaps and heaps of Life on Mars so they can beta ;)

I really should fangirl Heroes some, but I feel as if I'm suddenly very bored with American television in general. It's so... American. Too many filler episodes sometimes, too much babble about how ratings are more important than quality. Also, there's a distinct lack of Simm in anything American ;) Okay, I wasn't serious about the last bit sort of, I was just being a dork as always ;)

Can't believe it's my birthday in a week.
starsthatshine: (life on mars - take my hand)
I'm writing my Doctor Who/Life on Mars crossover and it's gonna pwn everything. Seriously. And a line I really want in it is: "But where's the EVIDENCE?" which shouldn't be so difficult since Sam says it every other episode. Feels weird writing Rose now after such a long time. But Sam/Rose friendship FTW! 21st century time travellers unite!

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] marysummers! I hope you'll have a good one.

Last day of my work at the cemetary, then I'm gonna work for the state on Monday *sigh* Somehow I feel very sick of working. Now I have to go and get dressed.

This mood theme is so pretty *sigh*

Feel free to spam me with John Simm pictures so I have something fun to see at lunch :D
starsthatshine: (life on mars - cutie in telephone)
Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] eirian, I hope you'll have an awesome one :D

I saw a 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: Behind the Magic' documentary on television yesterday and I'm definitely feeling the Evanna Lynch love. She's the perfect Luna. Her voice is sort of dreamy and abstract and just... very Luna-like. Also, I was definitely feeling the Harry/Luna love.

Details )

In conclusion I'm rather certain that this will be the best Harry Potter movie yet. It's extremely true to the book from what I've seen and... squee!

I can't stop using John Simm icons. Just... look how cute he is! :D If I don't, I feel like something's missing. I shall go youtubing later on after I've taken a shower. After that I'm off to work. *sigh* Apparently it's gonna be a lot of stuff that I have to do tomorrow *headdesk* Also I hope I'll have a chance to continue to write my Lucy/Master fic because... they pwn.

Also, I've made a couple of icons, anyone want me to post them? There is 29 Just Like Heaven icons (I love that movie!) and 31 Master/Lucy icons so far. I'll make some Harry Potter icons to go with it.

Edit: I just found this on a site. This is what Evanna Lynch said when she was asked who she ships in the book:
"I ship all the normal ones - Ginny/Harry, Ron/Hermione, blah blah blah. But I do have a strange one, which is Luna/Dumbledore. I think they would be quite perfect. They're both so detached, so otherworldly and so comfortable with themselves and they have this uncommon fearlessness of death. They also both have quirky hobbies and deep minds and I can see them getting along a storm. I don't see this ship sailing, of course. It's just one which I think could have had potential, aided along by a time-turner"

Did I say that she's the sweetest ever? I could have some comments about her shipping Harry/Ginny but Luna/Dumbledore FTW! :D
starsthatshine: (doctor who - never care any more)
I was listening to Avril Lavigne *is ashamed* and her song 'Slipped Away' and I totally had a new Doctor Who ship: Doctor/Lucy! And with that followed an AWESOME plot bunny, however, now that I've written it down I'm not so sure if the story itself is as good as the idea, so I'm searching for a beta (again). I could I'm not sure if I can send it to [livejournal.com profile] anythingbutgrey any more (feel like I've attacked you with fics, but if you thought it was fun and would consider betaing more... ;)).

Also, I have two other partly unfinished Master/Lucy fics somewhere on my computer (I'm on a roll) and perhaps a sequel to my latest fic if that is wished. That doesn't mean that whoever offers to beta the Doctor/Lucy one have to do these as well.

I need to stop writing but I. can't. it. is. impossible. The moment I take a breather, another plot bunny molests my brain and I have to write that one. I think I might be growing an addiction *lol* And I'm overcome with the sudden urge ot write Doctor/Donna also. And well... Master/me but that doesn't come as a surprise to anyone ;)
starsthatshine: (life on mars - grumpy + emo)
I love love love love love love British shows. I mean, American ones are made 100+ a year and most of them are crap but... British ones are quality. Or at least generally much more enjoyable than American ones because American ones tend to go mostly on clichés while British ones are more reality-based. Or at least that's how I've seen things.

I'm rewatching Life on Mars while introducing my sister to it and it's so much love. Annie/Sam is one of those ships I really love. I can understand the Gene/Sam love, but I'm not a fan of it in that way. I love their friendship and how it really doesn't work most of the time.

I want to see more British shows (I've got my interest peaked) and I've seen Doctor Who, Torchwood, Life on Mars and Skins. Are there any other good shows out there that are worthy of a watch?

Edit: *headdesk* I forgot, I've also seen Hex, Fawlty Towers and Midsomer Murders (I tried Robin Hood but I almost fell asleep when I saw the pilot)
starsthatshine: (doctor who - evil mastermind)
Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] smilebacklovely! I hope you'll have a fantastic one.

Doctor Who - The Last of the Time Lords spoilers )

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] buffychit and [livejournal.com profile] angiel3 :D I hope you have great ones.

Doctor Who talk, cutting for those who have just started seeing the show and doesn't want to be spoiled. Fair game for those who've seen season three so far )

Going to dad's. I'm gonna work on ficathon!fic and...

God, my mom just blew my head off. She's very high up on her horse today... *sarcasm* Sorry to end the entry on such a bad tone but I gotta run. I'll post more stuff later *hugs*

Sorry I've been such a lousy commenter lately.

Welcome [livejournal.com profile] maudlina to my flist :D I hope you'll have a great time here :D
starsthatshine: (doctor who - the evilest otp of them all)
Changed layout. This is what happens when I fall in love get obsessed. What do you think? Like? Hate? I was going for rather neutral colours (but there's always a certain level of colour adjustment that needs to be done) and wanted it simple and obvious that JOHN SIMM OWNS US ALL! (The banner is from - The Sound of Drums, obviously ;))

I feel for the non-John Simm fans/non-Doctor Who watchers who happen to have me added because I can't stop talking about it! Oh well, I suppose the same could be said about my love for Heroes (it's still there, it's just that I haven't had any wish to renew it until after the final episode of Doctor Who). I'm thinking about making a Master mood theme, but I don't know if I have the energy.

Speaking of not having the energy to renew love. The new episode of Traveler is downloaded but I so seriously have no wish to see it right now. My head is practically filled with John Simm. It's actually quite pathetic. I might rewatch some Life on Mars episodes because the show is just that good.

Now I'll go and see if there's any ice-cream and I'll write a fluffy Master/Lucy fic *giggles* Life is good.

Simm-owned

starsthatshine: (doctor who - i rule the fandom)
For you who don't know, John Simm has invaded the Doctor Who fandom and made it his own. He couldn't settle with Life on Mars, no, he had to go and be awesome on Doctor Who as well. ...... OMG I HEART HIM SO MUCH!!!!!!! Erhm... Yes, I'm quite sane.

Just to further prove this point, I wanted to tell you how many Doctor Who icons I have on my computer (not counting David Tennant or Billie Piper photoshoot icons etc. but from the actual show): ..... 758!!!! It's actually too little because sometimes I have a huge trouble finding icons to use from my folder but now I've made it a wieee bit easier by putting all the icons in categories based on seasons. Of course 90% of my season three folder is now filled with John Simm. He totally came on and owned everyone.

I wrote a new chapter to my Molly/Micah story (MAN, I should give this series a name because calling it Molly/Micah when there's so much else going on as well would be kinda.. weird. And it's annoying how I have to keep listing 'Molly/Micah' so people know it's that series... So, maybe I should think of a name).

I am totally ignoring my Doctor Who summer ficathon entry right now. IF I CAN'T SEE IT THEN IT'S NOT THERE. *hides eyes and pretends I'm a three year-old*

I've neglected Heroes so much, or so it feels like, but I refuse to "get my groove on" until the last episode of Doctor Who has aired. Why? Because I'm totally Simm-owned. However, he and I haven't fixed the legal papers yet. People seem to be against slavery for some reason...

OTHER HAPPY NEWS (other than me being John Simm's slave...): I've worked my final bit of overtime at work now so I'll start going home at 14.00 (2 PM) like normal now. Yay! No more 16.00 (4 PM)!!!

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] ujiek and [livejournal.com profile] seacolors! I hope you both have awesome ones :D
