Doctor What?


After much anticipation and searching through many false links, I finally found The End of Time part II!
Yeah... to be honest, I didn't really understand what was happening and was just confused till the last 15 minutes of the show; in which the Doctor regenerated. Gallafrey? Who? What? How? Apparently, I'm not as big of a Doctor Who fan as I thought I was. 1o9 has a great in depth review on what exactly happened on the last episode, click this whole sentence to read all of your questions being answered.


I'm just sad that David Tennant is not there anymore. Boo. The end of the episode was a bit anti-climatic, so to speak.
I will give the new Doctor a chance as I am easy to be swayed. But he has some gigantic shoes to fill in (wink wink).
Here's a preview of the new upcoming season with the 11th Doctor.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!


Is it sad that I'm waiting for New Year's so I can watch Doctor Who: The End of Time (part 2)?


On another note, I am sad that David Tennant is leaving his role on Doctor Who. VERY SAD about this. The news hasn't hit me this hard until I just watched The Christmas Special (part 1) today.

I know its creepy to have a picture of a random baby, but its the only way to show you how really depressed I am about this non-issue.


Not many of you know that I am quite a huge fan of Doctor Who+David Tennant series. In fact, I fucking LOVE IT. About 80% of the reason I watch the show is because of David Tennant.


You say, "Really? ... David Tennant?"


Please don't be a hater now, I'm still quite sensitive towards the news.


Now, let's all swoon at his picture.

le sigh... CALL ME!


Here's a really short recap (aka SPOILER ALERT):
  • The Master is back and is still batshit crazy
  • And the Time Lords return... Yes... PLURAL! Like a whole spaceship full of them! WTF? I THOUGHT HE WAS THE ONLY ONE LEFT?!
  • Timothy Dalton plays the leader (If I'm not mistaken) and he spits a lot.
  • You can read a more in-depth recap HERE!



Because you all have been good in reading my open love letter to David Tennant, I shall reward you now with the first 1:52 seconds of Part 2:


*Thanks Sabrine for introducing this show to me

Dedication Time!

To a dear friend in NY,

I apologize for leaving you behind all the time these past two months. I have made promises with you about dancing classes and trips to warmer weather, and I'm sorry to not have pull through with it. I don't know if you are "too busy" to read a simple blog like mine. But we are thinking about you...

PROOF:


You are welcome. With a letter like that, I can too be a Darcy. Jane Austen, I am not.

Headaches Reminds Me of Skins: In a Good Way


I have been overloaded by my Japanese Cinema class these past few days. I have watched about 7 hours of black and white movies with some really incestuous themes. DISTURBING. My head is pounding to the max degree. And that Chris Brown thing with Rihanna... he should burn in HELL. 

All of these feelings that I'm experiencing in the last 4 hours of today makes me want to recommend my viewerships of a show called Skins. Its another British show that took the nation (of the UK) by storm a few years ago. They are starting their 3rd season right now. But I haven't even finished the 2nd season yet, I heard its amazing. First season was pretty awesome, not many people know that its also on BBC-America here. If you haven't watched this show, but has heard people saying that it is amazing. GO START NOW, IT IS GREAT. WHAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM BUSTER? There's been rumors that HBO wants to make a US adaptation of the show (yay or nay?). Here's the synopsis via E4: Ok, it might be a long read, but basically this show emcompasses a realistic view of teenage life. Unlike Gossip Girl.

They're just your average group of 17-year-olds from Bristol. The gang is led by Tony, the best-looking, most-popular kid in town. He's always up for a laugh but always at someone else's expense. And then there's his poor best mate, Sid, who is forever lusting after Tony's gorgeous girlfriend while Tony plays him like a fool. But Sid will get the girl of his dreams, eventually - just not the girl he thinks.

Tony's girlfriend 
Michelle - a.k.a. "Nips" (don't ask) - is drop-dead gorgeous with a quick wit that keeps everyone on their toes. Except Tony, that is - he runs rings around her. And she knows it.

Chris is the class clown; he'll do anything (or anyone) if it's good for a laugh. But nothing gets him going quite like his psychology teacher, Angie. And there'sJal, who is hands down the most talented classical clarinet player in the whole UK. No joke. She's bright as hell, and nothing gets past her. Especially the way Tony treats her best mate, Michelle.

Maxxie is your everyday blond twink. He's magic on his feet and a whiz with his hands. He can have any boy he wants - and he wants them all. His partner-in-crime is Anwar, a "practicing" Muslim who doesn't let the teachings of the Koran get in the way of his less spiritually-inclined pursuits.

Everyone loves the ethereal 
Cassie, who is completely bonkers. But magic with it. She's a self-harming anorexic with zero self-esteem and a heart of gold. And we can't forget Tony's mysterious little sister, Effy, who keeps her mouth shut but gets up to more than you'd care to imagine. Together, these troublesome teens grab life by the balls and then give it a good twirl...

Skins was created by Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain.
