HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Hope you all had a good New Year. I did. It has sort of become an annual thing for my family and I to have a party at our house. This year was no exception. I, once again got completely drunk (I should point out here that I am not an alcoholic, and when I say once again, I speak in a New Years Eve tradition kind of sense. I don't really drink often which is part of the problem when it comes to be being a complete lightweight).

I woke up this morning to find that I had just crashed in the middle of the living room floor at some point which I don't remember. At least they were kind enough to cover me over, rather than just leave me. There are horrendous pictures of me, doing some truly worrying things. Along with the hangover that I am still nursing, I also have a really sore elbow, and a few bruises (Apparently I almost took a nose dive down the stairs, hit my head on a candle, and no one seems to know how I hurt my elbow.) I thing that did make me feel a little better though is that apparently I am quite graceful, even when drunk. Apparently I even manage to fall unconscious on the floor gracefully. Not sure how this is possible, but whatever *shrubs*

So it's at this point where I should probably be making some New Years resolution about not drinking. Yep, I say it after every time, and it never happens. So that is one resolution that I will not be making. I am however stealing the 100 things meme, that I saw on krazykipper's journal.

2008 has been a pretty amazing year for me, mostly. I've done a lot of things that I didn't think that I would, and I'm hoping that 2009 will continue the trend.

I've made a lot of great new friends last year, and I hope to get to know you all better in 2009.

Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile."
• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity.
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.

j_apollo asked me these questions:

1. What is your ideal career?

Archaeology (Egyptology to be precise) I'm working on my degree at the moment, but have to do a masters before I actually qualify as an archaeologist. I would love to be the next Howard Carter (I'm such a geek)

2. What is your favourite class that you are taking right now?
Philosophy. I've never done it before, but I'm actually loving it. It's so interesting.

3. Weirdest ship?
I don't really have any really weird ships, so I'd probably have to say John Shepherd/Carson Beckett (Stargate Atlantis)

4. What was your favourite animated show as a kid?
Care Bears. I had the wallpaper, the bears and the bed covers.

5. Top 3 girl-crushes?
Katie McGrath, Tricia Helfer, and Jewel Staite. I've met both Katie and Jewel and they were both really lovely, and a lot prettier in real life.

It's so great to see the rest of my flist so excited about Dr Who again. I've missed this.


My rather rambly thoughts on the episode.

ETA: I don't have a Doctor Who icon anymore, this makes me sad. Will have to make sure that I get one ready for the next specials

Ok. So what can I say about this episode except THAT WAS UNBELIEVEABLY AMAZING.

Just stopped bouncing around my living room. I GOT AN A!!! on my first assignment for university. I can't believe it. It's only 10% of the mark for one of four modules, but still. I got an A.

*Coming up for air* I've just finished reading my books for english literature tomorrow, just thought I'd stop in and see what the flist are up too before I start on my history reading.

Urgh, uni is killing me. Seriously, I thought the first year was suppossed to be a doss.

Also, good luck for all of you on flist doing nano, I wish I could be joining you, but sadly I haven't even time to write all the short merlin fics that I have plans for let alone nano.

Oh well, guess I better stop procratinating and get back to it.

Also, I know everyones talking about it so I thought I'd throw my thoughts out there, Bradley's beard. I like it, I don't know why, I don't normally like men with facial hair, but you know it's Bradley. Frankly he could wear a paper bag and I would still find him attractive.

HOLY CRAP. *Takes deep breathes*
