The TARDIS with David Tennant
:( Me too.

I love Mr. Gold. But as a character, I wouldn't want to actually meet him. Unless it's to ask him what his deal is and tell him Belle is still alive.

When Regina killed him I was like WOMAN I WILL CUT YOU.

Also I just FINALLY realized we're in a new thread now. I am slow.

ETA: I must be strange. I fall for the villainous messed up types sometimes.

He not attractive to me. Plus he kind of annoys me. Sorry.

I like the writer guy. Although i feel he's got a rather sinister reason for being there.

That's a good theory!

I second that, HR. But I would like to spend some time with him. ...I don't know. It's kind of like my deal with Jareth. Or Jason Isaac's Hook. They may be the villains of the piece, but they aren't necessarily *EVIL*, which makes a difference.

HR and I have a theory about the writer, too. And if he is who we've talked about, he's (probably) a good guy.

It's not the physical attractiveness I'm looking at in the case of that guy. It's the general "That guy is so AWESOME".

I have just banned myself from FB for the night so I can be productive. I think I'm gonna do the same here. G'night folks :D

Dang, Ari. ...I'll be on skype if you want/need to bounce things off someone (...and if I actually decide to get productive....we'll see....)

Afternoon team.

In the hilariously unlikely scenario of a movie adaptation of my work, they're welcome to make whatever they like. They won't care what I think anyway, so I'll save myself the effort and not try to make them. I can cry over my artistic integrity all the way to the bank. :tongue

Thanks, Para. :) So doing a history/English degree, possibly with something like a business minor, would be a good route to go? There's a publisher about 3 1/2 hours away who does internships, and I've already talked to my academic advisers about getting credit for it, and they said if I could get an internship there it would count for some of the upper-level elective credits I need in English.

That sounds great. I'd definitely take any internship you can get your hands on.

Fine, don't have anymore until Friday.

I'm going to fail school though, I can't keep up this pace. We keep having stupid visitors who want to go out for dinner until like 11PM and I had too much wine yesterday and WHY DO I HAVE TO BE AT SCHOOL.

AND I'M STUCK IN AN ENGLISH CLASS TEACHING MONTE-CRISTO (which I read in French last year) and THESE PEOPLE CAN'T PRONOUNCE ANYTHING GAHHHH THIS IS HELL.

It's not Vil-euh-for-tey, it's Vil-for, if you MUST simplify it.

just venting here because I cannot listen any longer to these people.

o_O

Is it... a good book?

It's one of my favorites. I hated the movie so much, though. I may have liked it if they hadn't called it Count of Monte Cristo. That book has enough drama and intrigue without them adding stuff in, but they did. And they took like *ALL* of my favorite stuff out. It was dumb.

I love the good French movie.

The book is very good, but I can only read it when in the mood, and I CANNOT read it in English because the English is SHIT compared to the original French book. The English just... reads like a translation.
