Front.
1. I sometimes think I should really not venture away from my Flist in terms of fannish things. It's just not safe. There's so much Sam hatred and blah blah blah that leaves me with the urge to run away. Very quickly and screaming.
2.
At the risk of sounding self-deprecating, I'd like to point out these were (all but the first) candid. And I feel very negatively toward them all... which I discussed tonight at length with someone. (I need to work on my self-esteem. In regards to everything - looks, intellect, social behaviour, &c. And stop hedging. But then, isn't this one big hedge of a paragraph? Dammit.) I like to think I'm sometimes photogenic, but rarely (if ever) in candid shots. Unlike my cousin who can't take a bad photo.
L to R: Joliana (one of the Malaysians I'm taking home over break), Huihui, Katie, me, and Ann. I have a sicksicksick obsessive love of Katie's dress, dammit. So tempted to get the master key and steal it.
Jo, Katie, and yours truly. I'm really not fond of this pic in terms of myself, but Jo looks absolutely stunning. (And she totally doesn't realize it. At all. Can't take a compliment.) She's the one teaching me Malay. :)
*GLOMP*
Me, Katie, Jo. (Can you tell who I hung out with most of the night? I was scared of the Christian masses.) I swear my posture was better throughout the night - I don't know why I'm basically shrugging there.
3. I had an amazing evening with my Capstone class at my prof's mother's house (she herself lives in Indiana, while her mum lives here in Oxford). Wine + Cheese + Post-Modern Film (made by a couple classmates) + Very Post-Modern Experience. Hard to explain, but the two students took Hills like White Elephants and made a really interesting film interpretation and then put us IN it by filming our response and a Q&A directed TOWARD the characters. All very interesting. And it actually got a bit emotional, I think, as we (the audience and question givers) started really seeing the characters.
4. I had a really cool dream this morning in the SG universe, but... not. I really kind of want to incorporate it into a fic (whenwhenwhenwhen can I write???), but I'm not sure how.
5. I wish I had more fannish mates on AIM. I feel like the one I had has disappeared to RL. Boo.
6. I still have loads to do by Friday. (Dammit, tomorrow now.)
