Steven came over yesterday and we did important stuff like getting our passport photos done, and unimportant things like making chocolate flapjacks. We also watched Brokeback Mountain which I was disappointed with. Was my illegally downloaded copy wrong or did every character in the film mumble incoherantly? We had no idea what was going on! That ( Read more... )

Aww, pretty Red *pets picture* Why do those photobooths always make people look really pale? I've always thought that... It's no wonder the airport security control doesn't turn round to people and tell them that they aren't pasty enough to be the person in the picture o_0 and then boot them off the plane ( ... )

Trust me, I was relieved at the paleness! Two weeks ago I went had some other photobooth photos taken and they were DARK and highlighted every spot and flaw! *shudders* Although yes, I pity tanned people who must get looks of suspicious from passport checkers when they come back from holiday!

Keith my pasty white butt I thought that too! Ahaha! But then, I think of those little Colinisms a lot.. :\

it's like there's no feeling up until that point... None at all... Exactly! I was expecting to see a growing attraction, a bonding (mental!) between them at first before they just.. got it on! I'm all for abstract films which don't explain in patronisingly clear terms what is happening at every moment in the film, but there needed to be a clear showing of their relationship evolving! When Ennis' wife saw them kissing I thought "Ooh, this could get interesting", but there was still mumbling and nothing really happened. The ending was quite sad though - the cut to Jack being beaten (it was Jack right, not just Ennis' memories?) especially ( ... )

You know, even though I read 'two days' time, my mind for some reason told me you were moving tomorrow... I'm such a dork *laughs* I'm sure you'll be fine at settling in with your parents ^_^ Families aren't so bad - they have their moments - like when your dad puts his metronome on when you're trying to write slash fiction, or plays A-minor pentatonic scales over bits of TV programmes that involve Griff Rhys Jones in bed with another man... or gets Colin Mochrie mixed up with Colin McRae... or when your mum asks you if you want butter on your bread, when you haven't had it for fifteen years... or doesn't tell you that you have a message on the answer phone until it's too late to do anything about it *nods* Other than that, families are great! *_* Are you an only child, or do you have siblings ( ... )

You look like Jessica Stevenson. In a good way, of course.

Does your roommate have silly bleached hair and a sci-fi comic book obsession, too? ;)

Eeee, I wish! Jessica Stevenson kicks butt in Spaced. First Series, before she lost weight and coloured her hair.

Unfortunatly not! Although I hope to meet Tim-a-likes at Uni :p

Lest I forget, thank you very much for the Decemberists album! I've been too busy to listen to it as of yet, but I shall do so tomorrow. Also, 'tis a good picture; all my passport photos make me look like an evil Havana pimp. I warn you though, you'll need about 500 of them in Freshers Week. University admin loves passport photos like you love Will Self.

There are a few more tracks to complete the whole album (there was only five tracks in that zip file) but they should be torrentable and such! It's a LOVELY album. Passport photos are rather good at making you look evil or braindead, aren't they? Take twelve year old Red for a start!

Awesome, awesome, awesome! I adore the new Decemberists; I've always thought they were good but I was never that much of a fanboy; however, I fell in love with this immediately. All three of the Crane Wife Songs are utterly superb. Thank you so much for sending it to me! :-)
