[a, miscellany] whatever

thank you for your interest in the poll in the previous entry. i actually came home, made some notes about the vid, rewatched the good bits of final cut (ie, the bits with pilots), and then watched rome.

*

speaking of rome, i've just watched the first episode. it was interesting.

show of hands who liked it, please? i can't decide. which is unusual, as usually i'm either yes! or no! about it, not this wishy-washy indecisiveness.

*

there's this vid floating around, and it uses a song called 'consider this.' can someone upload it (the song) for me? please?

*

i'm tired and feeling blah and actually feeling pretty emo too, so before i attempt to be creative, i'm going to list some things that make me happy, because there's some sort of meme going around.

things that make me happy (in no particular order), by pen, aged twenty three and a little bit

1. good vids to songs i like and in fandoms i like
2. fic
3. plush penguins
4. the muppet movie
5. cooking
6. archery (when it's not raining)
7. pride and prejudice
8. children of sloane HAHA i mean children of dune. what a typo
9. real person fic about james and jessica from the children of dune mini series (omg you should totally try it some time)
10. breakfast on sunday mornings with my friends
11. trashy magazines.
12. tim tams
13. lying on the beach, reading (please remember to wear a hat and sunscreen)
14. post cards
15. batman

okay, i'm done, but if you'd like to leave a comment that says anything at all, that would be nice. you can ask for fic, if you'd like. or whatever takes your fancy.

That's okay! We can talk about costumes for SwanCon instead!

Ok! Which of River's costumes were you thinking of, or were you going to do something in her style that's slightly different? I haven't really looked at all of Inara's costumes properly, although Laura favours the midriff baring one.

Oh btw, are you going to be at uni next week, and if so, are you interested in volunteering for my psych experiment? :-p

I was thinking of the dress she wears in, uh, actually, I can't remember which episode. It's a dress that does not have any special cut or drift to it, it just falls straight, in very light material. Does that make any sense? I need to rewatch the episodes. She wears it with bare feet, that's all I can think of.

I can always be available at uni, given warning, and I would love to assist you by participating in your psych experiment, but you know I've graduated, right? Received the piece of paper in the mail today and everything. I mean, I really am happy to participate, but I was just making sure you knew.

erm, that sounds like the one she wears in the ep where she picks up a gun that looks like a tree branch and everyone panics. If so it's a medium paiseley pink print or something (from memory).

Oh thankyou! I knew you'd finished honours, but wasn't sure if you were continuing with post grad. Congrats!

Anyway if you're interested, it takes 30-40 mins, involving a computer categorisation task and some questionnaires. There's no age limit so it doesn't really matter that you've graduated, as long as you still live close enough for transport to be easy. Thursday next week before 2pm is good at the moment, otherwise any day that week save Wed is good (during business hours). Let me know when you're free!

Yeah, I think that's the dress.

I would be happy to do your experiement. I start work at twelve on Thursday, so sometime before that.

Ok cool. How about 10am or 10:30am, that should give you enough time to get to work? It's in room 2.30, psychology north block. Otherwise tuesday of that week is also good for me :)
