Yup, I still hate my computer. I'm just taking the opportunity to post while I can now (i.e. before it crashes) to say I miss LiveJournal! And I miss you guys.
So, new term. The Romantic Period. One seminar and three lectures in, and I'm really enjoying it. I mean, that period was so fucked up, and so were the people. Byron? The fuck? I love it. And what are writers supposed to do when the government's passing sedition laws left, right and centre? Excited, I am.
Quick Who ramble, because I couldn't do it last week. Slightly anti-climactic, I thought, but ! still really enjoyed it. I get so swept up in the episode that I don't really notice the things that irked me until afterwards, but then they sort of niggle away at me. I didn't really understand why the Doctor suddnly agreed to help the HumanDalek with his freaky genetics, though. I realise he's all for living and letting live, but here's your enemy, who's already killed thousands of people and wants to do freaky genetic experiments on them, and you say okay? When you're the Doctor? I found it jarring. So, I'll say the same thing I say every week: Martha rules, enough with the Rose emo.
Ooh, I voted! First time ever! I'm totally keeping my polling card.
Also, everybody ever should watch Long Way Round. Basically Ewan McGregor and his best friend Charley Boorman go from London to New York on motorcycles via Europe, Russia, Kazakhstan and Mongolia and I love them. Really. I cannot stress this enough. Watch it. If only for the scenery.
Okay, I'll quit while I'm ahead and attempt to watch Heroes. Wish me luck!

How sick is voting? I carry around my voter's registration even though there's no need.
I caught some of Long Way Round on TV once. ♥ Ewan.
