Details on the public appearances the Glee cast will make this weekend in Sydney and Melbourne. I'm deciding on which one to go to. Kyle suggested getting a Tiger flight to Melbourne to try to be one of the 200 people, which could work, but Sydney is easier. Are any of you guys going? Which one will you go to?
Prac is killing me. I'm so tired and stressed out right now. I've had some really great classes and some not-so-great ones, but I'm having trouble with prep and just finding the time to do everything with enough sleep, which I have not been getting. Also, home internet is down this weekend! Because, you know, I needed more things to go wrong right now. I swear, I've been cursed by the Inconvenience Gnomes and they're out to make everything just that little bit harder for me. I get to do documentaries, but I swear watching The New Guy over and over again is making me borderline homicidal.
Meanwhile, I made icons, did you see them? 125 icons from BSG, Farscape, LotR, Dollhouse, Firefly, Buffy, Lost and some Muhney from his new photoshoots and such :)

A heads-up for everybody: I had my first prac day in a school today (just observing) (and it was awesome, fyi) and pretty soon I am going to have to make this whole journal friends-only. I don't know what I'm going to do about my picspams etc. - maybe make another journal? - but this one's going to have to be private. I'm going to give people an option to stay or go or be added back or whatever pretty soon. I'm not even sure how many of the people watching actually read every post anyway, so maybe this won't affect many people at all.
My first day at a school was the first time in this uni experience thus far that I finally felt totally confident and comfortable and un-freaked-out. And I was in classes with some of the lower-level kids, with a fair few behavioural issues, so I am feeling a hell of a lot better about this teaching gig now. It turns out I might not totally suck! Of course, once I get to actually teaching we'll find out whether my newfound confidence is well placed, but still, this was a good day.
Jane Espenson is awesome.
THIS IS INSANE. West Side Story photoshoot with a bunch of hip young things. RPATTZ WHAT? YOU MAKE MY DAY. I'm not a West Side Story fan, but anything that brings together RPattz, Chris Evans, Rodrigo Santoro and Ben Barnes is OK in my books. Article, please stfu about JLo.
‘MacGyver’ Movie Coming, Will Be Filmed With Rotary Dial Phone, Paper Clip & Dental Floss.
Best. Ever.
ZAC EFRON WHAT.
New Benry Knows Best.
My favourite icon maker is also making awesome Dollhouse caps, so you all have no excuse for not making lovely icons. I'm making some! Speaking of Dollhouse, I accidentally stumbled across some spoilers that are CRAZY.
Sold to Dr. Horrible!
Joss Whedon's celebrity playlist!
Cool new pics of Draco, Ginny and teen!Tom from HBP. There's also two new pictures of DanRad, but they are desperately boring.

I now have two covers of Alanis Morrissette's 'You Oughta Know' sung by men, and a version of 'Ironic' that has Alanis singing the line 'It's meeting the man of your dreams, and then meeting his beautiful husband'. Also, I am so not used to this crazy busy thing - I had classes from 8:30-2:00 today with a half hour break, which I used to buy my $124 textbook, and then I had to go straight from my overlong lecture to work. So pretty much my only free time was spent driving.

I'm still not linking to everything Dollhouse, and this link is neither positive nor negative, but: THIS. SERIOUSLY. There's some selective memory going on that people seem to think Joss's shows are always wildly popular and critically acclaimed from the first episode. I want to find actual reviews of Buffy's first season.

Okay, I didn't voluntarily give up LiveJournal or anything, I just haven't had the internet for nearly a week because your connection died and it took until today for someone to come fix it, and at every opportunity I was given to use the internet I decided to do something crazy like figure out my university course instead of come on LiveJournal, although I did find the time to renew my account. (And I can upload 5 more icons, yay!)
I got in to my teaching course! So I'll be doing that his year, hopefully keeping my current after-school job - but I should be able to get money from the government so that I won't have to get another job. I was only accepted into the course last night, after two days of classes (good job, administration) and now I can't get onto the website to enroll because I either wrote the password down or (as is, I believe, more likely since I repeated it twice) the guy gave me the wrong password.
And now, of course, I don't have time to do any links, since I only got the internet back today and have been wasting time trying to sort myself out and now I have to get to bed to be up in the morning. Hopefully I'll have things under control by next week.
PS. Episode 2 of Dollhouse was better than the pilot. I thought it was cool. I picked the Keeslar twist early and had a problem with one Boyd line, but I really kind of love Boyd.

I hate uni. It feels like it has no purpose. I worked for days on a presentation and then tonight figured out I'd been working on the wrong movie and tried to start a new one but it's on the densest movie in human history, and I haven't found a single review that isn't written by someone with the capability of using words with less than three syllables. I am going to have to pull out of this course. I have pulled out of too many courses and fucked over my degree far too much already. I don't even know how much of my poor parents' money I've wasted.
I've made an appointment with the university councillers for the 31st, which is alarmingly soon, but I may have to try and get a sooner one because I have never felt this close to crazy. Also, I have to make an appointment with an advisor and somehow explain to my lecturer that I can't take his class anymore on the day my presentation is due.
YAY.
ETA: Top five me. I need to get my mind off things.

Today was long.
I started, as you know, by getting to uni too early. Then I had my classes (one interesting, one not so much) and discovered OMG I'm apparently on BREAK next week! But, uh, I have two essays due. One in two days. I think I'll leave it til next week, thanks.
Then I tried to do my LEAST favourite thing in the WORLD, which is bra shopping. After an hour of nothing I gave up and came home and had my lunch before going out to work. By the end of work my knee hurt and I was tired so I came home instead of going to the gym, which is bad.

Oh. Em. Gee. Dean/Metallicar OTP. SO GOOD FIC.
My exam went really well! \o/ the movie I hadn't seen didn't come up, it was just Sunset Blvd., Taxi Driver and Paris, Texas. I think I did alright in the end. My hand hurts like a bitch though. And yes, I talk like the characters if I read them enough.

So I have this assignment due in an hour and 15 movies and I was completely panicked about it because I could NOT get to sleep last night after having only written 800 of the 2500 words I needed and I had to be up at 9. I took the dog to get her haircut at 9, then came home, took a panadeine and went back to sleep for an hour and a half. I woke up feeling excellent and finished the assignment 10 minutes ago. I don't think it's half bad, either - I got to write my own question, so I'm writing about how modern musicals subvert gender norms. I have loads of other theories on how musicals fit into the modern film and television world, but my lecturer didn't agree with them, so I left them out. Still, I got to write about Rocky Horror Picture Show, Cabaret and Chicago.
Moral of this story: when stressed, take drugs and sleep it off.
Uh.
ETA: Let's play spot the awesome Spacey-awards winning directors who I've met, shall we? PJ AND JOSS OMG.

I want to go back to my house!
We've been kicked out because they varnished the floors. Of course a presentation I'm supposed to give in class tomorrow morning is still on my computer because I got kicked out of my room rather suddenly, so that can't be good. I also have to do assignments but my brain's not working. And I'm really tired even though I slept enough. I think I'm still sick.
It's so damn inconvenient.
Also, am torn between reading spoilers for Veronica Mars so that I know what happens and waiting until I get back into the house so I can watch the episode myself.
I don't suppose anybody really wants to write a couple essays do they?

I have to do a presentation on the single most infuriating article for my Dance & Musicals class. It's about the gender politics of Singin' in the Rain, basically doing a very feminist reading of it based on the fact that Kathy Seldon doesn't have a 'musical identity.' You know what? I've seen her solo. It just wasn't very *good*. I love Debbie Reynolds and all, but the number itself was wet and boring.

NOBODY talks in my tutorials, it's ridiculous. Am I the only person at university with working vocal chords? Maybe I'm just the only one who doesn't care about sounding stupid. Or, in the case of one of my classes, the only person in my class who's ever actually seen a musical before starting the course (the course is called The Politics of Dance/Musicals. WTF?)
Meanwhile, gorgeous guy wearing a Strokes T-shirt asked me to borrow a pen to sign the list in Shakespeare & Film class. I offered to let him use it throughout the class. He said it was very gracious of me and decided he was going to call me Grace from then on. Which he did. Am also the only person in class who hates Orson Welles. *shrugs*
