I walked through Stratford Mall today and saw Bilis Manger from Torchwood!


And yes, this is the most exciting thing to happen to me for quite a while, hence the lack of updates. I should remedy that soon as today I took my last written exam EVER! Unless I get a job which requires me to sit exams, but I'm trying not to think about that.

Now I am going to order Indian food and drink wine.

Inevitably, when I have something I really should be doing (revision again) I start messing around on the internet.

Just discovered that ( very minor casting spoilers for DW Series 4 and Torchwood Series 2 )

I was going to do this much earlier today, but many family-based distractions found me first.

Spoilers for last Saturday's episode of Doctor Who ( be here. )

I am now back in Suffolk for the summer. Haven't finished unpacking yet, but nevermind boring things like that.

Next task, find a job. My back-up summer jobs have both fallen through, so the hunt is on so Rosie can afford to have a social life over the summer. I have an interview/appointment thing with a temping agency tomorrow morning, so hopefully that will find me something fairly quickly. After all, the quicker I start working, the quicker I get paid.

In other news, I've just finished watching the first season of Battlestar Galactica and I'm totally hooked! All the tension over who may or may not be a Cylon is well played, and a lot of the storylines are relevant to what's going on in the world at the moment. Yup, totally hooked :)

Eurovision was camptastic as always.
Serbia probably deserved to win, however I was far more amused by the runners up, the Ukraine, and their silver-clad transvestite. I felt they showed the spirit of Eurovision much better.

( Probably NSFW )

We didn't give Ireland any points, but they gave us some, and we beat them. If we took this seriously, we'd so be getting bombed.
We still came second from last. Tradition stands, we are crap at Eurovision.

ETA: The French were pretty camptastic also, with the pinkness and the wings and the fake cat stuck to a man's shoulder.

That was rather good, wasn't it?

( Spoilers for ep 20 )

In other news, London is too fucking hot! Not good weather for revision. On the plus side, the ice cream van came back today. Looks like I'll be eating ice cream every day this month :)

Also, I finally have a Heroes icon.

Yes, I think I liked that.

Slightly confusing in places, until the end that is, but I suspect that may have been the point. I'll have to watch it again sometime, preferably the whole series in one go in order to get a bit more sense out of it.

On the down side, no more life in 1973. I'm going to miss the gratuitous punch-ups.

Sam Tyler: "I want to go home."
Gene Hunt: "Don't be such a Jessie."

As predicted, I have no willpower and watched the last episode of Life On Mars tonight. It was good.

Amanda from Ugly Betty has the world's most annoying eyebrows. They just don't stop moving.

Foreman: Get out of my temporal lobe House!
