Hi you all !
I've seen this kind of posts many times, so I'm making mine, because, well, I think we all need one.  There's probably a meme with a proper text somewhere but I'm too lazy to find it tonight.


So this is simple : If you wanna tell me something nice, something sweet, or tell me something funny, or even show me something funny or something you know will make me happy, like a pic (or a picspam), or a vid or a fic, well, post it here !

This way, anytime I'm feeling in a bad mood, I'll be back reading your little comments to get better.
(And this is kind of urgent. But you can come back in three weeks or two months and post new things. YOU CAN SPAM ME !!)

Thanks kids for the well wishes with my driving thing. Well, I think I probably screwed it up again, but whatever. I decided I didn't really care, because if I did care, I'd be sitting crossed-legs in my closet, crying like a little girl.
And, come on, I like biking, okay ?! I have a bike, and I love this bike. I don't need something that's killing the planet, alright ?
So. Since we all agree on this point, let's talk about real, important things.


Like, Torchwood: Children Of The Earth is airing next week, wooooot !! I'm gonna have to find something to keep me busy this week, I'm yearning for having the kiddos back on the screen ! More angst, more slash, more Rhys, YAY !! More tears ? I don't know yet. I'm so gonna miss Tosh & Owen... But I feel like they're gonna rock the house, babe :D I love the energy and the pressure that the trailers express, plus they really did a great job with the official photoshoots. I WANT TO BE NEXT MONDAY ALREADY !!!


Oh and I know you all will be sad about that, but my sis' rejected Emrys as a possible cat-name. I know, she sucks, right ? But let's be fair, she probably doesn't realise what a blasphemy it is. So, we were thinking about names, and she said "How about E.T. ?" and I laughed, and then she said with a serious tone like she was asking me to help her break into a shop : "How about E.T. ?"
So, I said, "E.T. ? Well..." and my Mom got there and said "Yeah, E.T., totally !!" so I said, okay. Really, sometimes I think I'm living with kids. Which serious adult would name a pet by a fictionnal character's name ? *cough*



He was sleeping on my laptop ! Such a geek !! But then he heard that I was turning the camera on and he -- well, attacked me !! Lol
Oh and he was also trying to play with my Zachary Quinto wallpaper. We're all going "Awwwwww" whatever he does and are probably gonna die of cuteness overdose quite soon.
Probably more pictures coming. 'Till then, I wish you a nice week!

People tend to make resolution on the first day of the year and never do what they say they'd do. I tend to make resolutions on the first day of the summer holidays - but the end of the sentence is pretty much the same.

I don't really know why I do that every year, making a list of goals up for the summer, when I'm obviously never gonna reach these goals and know it from the start. Because I'm weak !! Lol

Among the resolutions I'm supposed to make, every summer raises this one : Make-Sport.
That never happens, never, ever, ever. Because, first of all, I don't like sport. So "sports" actually means "walking" (but that's still a sport according to the walking-sportsmen.) And, well, I'm lazy.

The goal I tend to reach each summer is, "work on my fanfics" and "read more books". I'm adding "watch more movies" for my culture's sake. I'm also thinking about "working a bit on my German" but I don't exactly know why I would like to read stuff in German since I never really liked the language. Let's say it's the Europe thing in the air.

I'd like to give classes to some kids of the area too, to get a bit of money maybe, but that's still a working project.
I'd also like to get my driver licence.

And... Well, I thought about this, and maybe I'm gonna try to work a bit on that self-confidence issue of mine. It would be nice to, you know, trust myself a bit. Stop freaking out when complications arise. Know I can do something rather that believe I can do it. Act like a normal human being when in contact with other living things. Stop thinking people are staring at me and stop believing that's because there's something wrong with me. Stop blushing for nothing.  Erm, well, that's a goal out of range. But, yeah,that kind of stuff.

Oh and, right, I want to have my hair dyed again because the colors are fading. Red, black and cooper, just like last time, that was awesome ! That's also making me work on "being stared at by strangers."

And in a completely different topic, I'd like to get more userpics too but I have to check how much that's gonna cost :p
I'm gonna see with my mum to get a new laptop - well, another one. One of these small and light things you can take anywhere you want. That would be handy for my classes. Concerning the fonctionnalities, if it has wifi and works fast, that's all that matters !
Like this kind of thing but I clearly don't know anything about laptops and I can't afford this one on my own. Plus I've never used a Mac in my life (it just looks cool, okay ?)
Any advice, kids ?

Oh, well. That was just another entry with me talking about myself.

I was tagged by the new Rachel Luttrel fan, [info]illicit_designs ! (LOL)


THE MP3 PLAYER ON SHUFFLE MODE MEME
Once you've been tagged...
01. Turn on your mp3 player.
02. Go to shuffle songs mode.
03. Write down the first 15 songs that come up (song title and artist), no editing/cheating, please.
04. Choose 10 people to be tagged.

HERE )


Oh, and since I'm here, well : THE DESKTOP MEME (still stolen to [info]illicit_designs )
01. Anyone who looks at this entry HAS to post this meme and their current wallpaper in their Livejournal..
02. Explain in five sentences/points why you're using that.
LIES )

And I got this one from [info]vanitykidman
THE YES/NO MEME (YES, THAT'S A BRILLIANT NAME !)
1. You can ONLY answer 'Yes' or 'No'.
2. You are NOT ALLOWED to explain ANYTHING unless someone messages or comments you and, believe me, the temptation to explain some of these will be overwhelming. Nothing is exactly as it seems.

THE TRUTH )


That was the meme-time ! I needed to *relax*. I worked my courses the whole day. Tomorrow's a big day, two exams. Then I'll have to work again, same for Sunday, Monday will be the last exam-day, and I'll have a bit of relief !
Fingers-crossed guys ;)

So, let's be clear, classes are nice, exams are okay, but the exam preparation part totally sucks ! Yeah, I know, there are kids somewhere who can't go to school, people who can't even read, and some who would like exams but can't have some because of revolutionnary strikes (hello [info]lili_flygirl, my dear ! :) ). So if you're already bored, stop reading 'cause the only purpose of this entry is COMPLAINING.

I'm exhausted. Okay, this wouldn't probably have happened if I had learned my courses regularly, but, hey, didn't you read the previous sentences ?! There's no place for logic and remorses in here, only room for COMPLAINING !!
Yes, yes, you're really gonna get bored.
That's a rather obscure and maybe boring part of the entry, but if you're brave enough, go on , click !! )



My Mum and Sis' drive to Poitiers on Monday, right after my exams are done, to help me move from my student room. Then we'll get back to La Rochelle, and my Brother and his wife will visit us, because, we're getting a cat !! That gets me really enthusiastic :D
We'll probably have to get back to Poitiers to end the moving of my stuffs. I'll be taking a few driving classes and in the weeks coming I'll probably take my driving licence exam again. And, then, well... No projects for July. Just a week end planned in August. And September will come back again... ( I'm so gonna miss my uni' friends ! )


I'm gonna register for new classes along with my Psychology classes. LAW CLASSES !! One of my Justice & Psychology teachers told us about thoses classes, so I've checked online, and I'm really interested in the program. That's gonna be nice. Well, I hope so...
Hey, that's gonna be more classes so more exams to complain about !! \o/  LMAO !!


Maybe you noticed or not a new link upthere called 2009. I snagged the idea to someone on the internet but I don't remember who. It's, basically, a list of stuffs about me in 2009. Movies, tv shows I've watched, books I've read, places I've been, maybe I'll add other things if they come to my mind. I think it's funny (erm okay, maybe I'm the only one amused) So, if that appeals to you, you probably should try to check the entry regularly for I hope I'll be able to update it quite much !

/ End of Entry.

Hello folks.

I'm so exhausted I don't even know what to write there. Classes are getting... I don't know. Not boring. Actually, I love my classes at the uni, love the people there, it's fun and everything, but it's getting tiring. Exams are in -hold on- three weeks, and I still haven't started to study for it. When all my buddies are in a complete panic because they think they're late.

I've had to stay in Poitiers two Saturdays in a row because we had to catch up some classes, but I went back home in La Rochelle anyways (I don't really know why), and spent more or less four hours in the public transport in two days. Plus, yesterday the train was crowded. I mean, completely crowded ; all the tickets were sold, and people were standing (or sitting) in the corridors between the cars...
I still don't have any class scheduled for this Saturday. But I'd like to have some so that I don't have to go to a driving lesson I really don't want to go to because I'm a fucking scared little girl who can't handle herself.



I think I'm always feeling bad when the semester is ending. The last week before the exams is okay, and I'm okay on the big days too. I just hate the moment where I can't convince myself to work before it's too late. I'm really looking forward to being in holidays. Even if I don't wanna go back to La Rochelle during two whole months and miss my friends. Cause, yeah, I don't have any friends at home (got rid of all my highschool so-called friends)


I travelled back to La Rochelle twice last week ; Thursday was a holiday, and my sister-in-law's brothers were having their first communion. Well, actually we lost our way to the small village in which the ceremony was occuring, so we got there late ; and the church was completely crowded, some people were waiting outside, and even my bro' and his wife couldn't make it in. So they were at the playground right next to the church, having some fun with their daughters.
I wasn't exactly sad to miss the ceremony since I never feel at my ease in religious places. Since I don't believe in any God, I'm always thinking things like "what am I doing here" and "who the hell am I kidding anyway ?". I feel it like a bit of lack of respect towards those who believe, to sit there and wonder when the guy is going to stop talking and ask us to stand up and sit down. Anyways.



On the bright side, I had quite a lot of fun with my nieces and have taken lots of pictures of the two of them.

Il était une fois... )

I'd like to have more time to do things right, like, managing to study for my exams, get on with my SGA fanfic, and this Merlin one shot series I'm working on ; work on these audio podcasts we're making with the girls at StargateFanfiction. Find a way to make my best friend feel better about- erm, about everything. Get rid of this headache.

Tomorrow I'm having my last english course of the semester, and won't have any other before september. It's actually not a course but an exam - but it's not exactly worrying me. The sad thing is we're being tested on some vocabulary and on relative clauses. If there's only one reason for which I miss highschool, it definitely is my extra-english classes, where the teacher was speaking english from the beginning to the end, asking us about topic of current interest, sometimes some outrageous ones, making us argue and even squabble over some hot topics. That was a good time. I'm still quite afraid to be loosing the things I've learned (like some vocabulary I know I've lost), and I don't think listenning to english songs/movies/series will help me keeping my accent if I don't practice. Crap.


Whatever. Tonight's schedule : having a look to my english vocabulary and watch more episodes of The Big Bang Theory.
Yeah, still resolving myself to changing my bad habits.
