I’ve decided to do one of those because I thought it would be good to keep track of things I read/watched/experienced over a year.

Hearing a Marilyn Manson song in ATWT ? PRICELESS XD

Random tiny things of the day.

"Jake Silbermann confirmed you as a friend on facebook." Is it sad if this was my biggest squee moment of the day ?

Why boys, WHY www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXVoZA7frus you are both killing me so hard ;__;

I'm such a masochist I watched that scene ten times in a row. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. CAN THEY KISS AND MAKE UP PLZ ?

I'm not crying... It's just been raining on my face.

Ok as crazy as it sounds this may be my favourite part ever, I am stuck watching it in a loop. The acting is SO GOOD AND INTENSE OMG.

Wow it's been ages since my last icon batch ! That's saying something about my love for this special ♥

FUCK NO I AM NOT CUTTING THIS.




LET THE POTATOSHOPAGE BEGIN. Rusty looks like their personal pimp ?!

Random tiny things of the day.

I'm a fucking mess. Doctor Who makes me proud to be a hardcore fan right now but also hurts me like a bitch *hyperventilates*

I need either fluff (hullo thar Nuke &lt;3) or really kinky Doctor/Master. I need to get out of this apathetic state ASAP.

Went for the latter (he needs to be spanked).

I'm really unable to gather coherent thoughts at the moment because I still haven't calmed myself down and I'm a mess.

Seriously, I don't think I've been this affected by an episode of a series in years.

( I just have to get this off my chest )

Riiiiight. I'll really have to get my head around it now BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE I'VE FUCKING DREAMED THAT EPISODE. NOT ACTUALLY SEEN IT. EXCEPT I HAVE.

OMG.

HAPPY DOCTOR WHO DAY Y'ALL !!
Yes that proves how long it took me to make this post, I blame you unexpected picspam !



My excitement can barely be contained because as much as I obsess over various things, nothing can ever EVER top Who in my heart.
Hope it won't disappoint !


Speaking of obsessions, I'm currently torn apart and consumed by two things. The first one I'm rediscovering with great joy and the other I'm a tiny bit embarassed about.

Colin Firth aka Teh Ultimate Ideal Man.



I'm currently watching and rewatching half of his filmography and he makes me flail and flail and flail. I've not rewatched Pride and Prejudice just yet but I know that, in my state, when I do, it will probably take a week to recover. I still have a hard time getting over the outfit he was wearing in the ending credits of Mamma Mia! and THE HOTTEST. TANGO. EVER. he danced in Easy Vertue. I'm so obsessed right now I'm considering going to see A Christmas Carol and Dorian Gray.

DAMN YOU COLIN, YOU AND YOUR SUDDEN (right) BUT INEVITABLE CHARISMA.


The other obsession is about the first ever gay couple to appear on a soap opera, which is why I feel REALLY pathetic, except that they're awesomecakes and I'm so into it it hurts.


Noah Mayer/Luke Snyder aka Nuke from As The World Turns



I started watching their storyline a week ago and I'm almost halfway through the 387 parts omg. It's a soap so they live batshit lives and have a gazillion issues and always end up in the hospital. So yes, I promised myself not to pimp it because it's mostly ridiculous (and lulzy) but it's like a total trainwreck because I AM ENTHRALLED AND CANNOT STOP WATCHING. I fell for Luke almost immediately and had a hard time liking Noah at first. The sad thing is that I LOVE NOAH LIKE PIE NOW (and I adore his voice for some reason) and I'm completely obsessed with the pairing. They have such a burning chemistry that I think it was bound to end like this. Woe.

The second mistake I made is search for stuff about the actors and look for interviews because guess what ? Jake Silbermann (Noah) collects comic books and took part in a Star Trek RPG and Van Hansis (Luke) is a horror movies fan. YES, THEY ARE TEH SWEETEST AND AWESOMEST AMDSLJDJSDMDJA. Oh and Van is gayer than a rainbow and dates his clone.


So I won't pimp it because it's a soap and really, no I can't recommend it to anyone but Luke and Noah, despite the lulzy context, are quickly becoming one of my favourite pairing in the history of ever.

( There's no picspam under here, coz I won't pimp it, nope. You can click safely, this isn't a trick )



DAMN. This really wasn't supposed to happen. I kinda lost an afternoon doing this. On the bright side it's almost DW TIEM YAY.

I still have tons of things to say about last night's Merlin (which was AMAAAAZING), White Collar and Legend of the Seeker but I'll leave that for another post.

Time to avoid the Flist and Twitter and refresh a certain page like crazy. *FIDGETS*

Random tiny things of the day.

OMFG. MERLIN WAS FUCKING INCREDIBLE. It hasn't been this good since forever ! I cried.

Nuke has definitely and officially eaten my soul. I blame Jake and Van's ORSUM /o\
