Kids, peer pressure is awful. Never give in to peer pressure. Today I gave in to peer pressure and, instead of going straight home after classes, I was dragged to a talk about mean field games. All because I couldn't say no and was bribed with pizza.
...Okay, well, it was interesting because it's the first time I heard a maths seminar in English and I'm happy to say I understood just as much as I would have if it was in Italian. Which means I understood nothing at all, because lol I don't know about PDEs and who is Nash and what's this equilibrium everyone talks about. :D I kind of gave up after the first half and stopped taking notes altogether, and why do mathematicians from all around the world insist on using handwritten slides and a projector from before the war, idgi.
Oh well. EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH ONCE UPON A TIME because I say so and because it's about fairytales and because the sheriff is hot and the protagonist kicks ass. It's kind of cheesy, especially the parts set in the land of the stories, but I got my sister to watch it so we make fun of the conspicuous CGI together. And I am convinced that the Evil Queen and Snow White had a torrid love story, let's see what the next episode has to say about that. Also, hot sheriff. Kick ass protagonist. She had a chainsaw in the last episode and I cheered.
Also, Castle keeps having meh plots this season but who cares, everyone is so cute and I love them sfm. Please get together before you die of old age.

Date: 2011-11-03 11:08 pm (UTC)She's pretending (or actually trying, idk) to only want to help people, and uses it as justification for everything she does, whether it ends up helding people or hurting them.
And on the flipside, as soon as someone treats her that way, she blows it out of proportion and feels attacked.
I think I could sum it up as she has higher standards for other people than she does for herself?
That, and the whole drama about wanting to be with House. Or not. Which is not a personality thing, but still bothers me about the character.

Date: 2011-11-03 10:42 pm (UTC)Wait, she was the brunette doctor who dyed her hair in later seasons?
lol I didn't even recognize Pam.SADNESS THO, BECAUSE I LIKE THIS SERIES A LOOOT.no subject
Date: 2011-11-03 11:00 pm (UTC)Yeah, she was (/is ?) Cameron on House. Maybe when I've caught up with all the bazillion seasons of Criminal Minds and all the other shows I want to watch, lol.

Date: 2011-11-03 11:27 pm (UTC)I was never much into House because I'm squeamish and can't stand the ~medical part of medical drama but judging from your comment up there I didn't miss much. Even though you hate all my favourite characters in CM so I'm questioning your judgement. /o/

Date: 2011-11-03 11:41 pm (UTC)Oh I'm sure a lot of people like her, just not me. I'm picky. What what, who are your favourites? I only hate Elle, and make frowny faces at Garcia. I was nice about the rest.

Date: 2011-11-04 01:55 am (UTC)The fact that you said the sheriff is hot has nothing to do with it at all.I haven't been keeping up with Castle in a while, but if there's any particularly good episodes for this season, I might check them out too.
no subject
Date: 2011-11-04 10:08 am (UTC)It's a valid reason.There hasn't been any really good episode, just a lot of really good Castle/Beckett scenes and Martha scenes here and there. IDK about who your favourites are, but it's enough to keep me hooked.

Date: 2011-11-04 04:54 am (UTC)Honestly, though, I've got to stop watching it with my family - they keep talking through parts and asking questions when I'm trying to listen lol. It seriously took me until the second episode to even realise that the teacher was Snow White because I was so distracted.
On that note - do we know who the
very hotsherrif is in the fairytale? Or has that not been mentioned yet?no subject
Date: 2011-11-04 10:17 am (UTC)It's haaard to tell who's who because everyone's looks are so different! The sheriff hasn't been mentioned yet, I'm sure of it because I looked him up after the first episode in case I had missed it and it said that he's a ~mysterious character and we'll find out later. Personally I think he's the wolf from Little Red Riding Hood (because Red and her Granny are around already, and because we saw a wolf when Emma crashed into the signpost) while my sister thinks he's the woodcutter from LRRH, which maybe makes more sense if he's one of the good guys.

Date: 2011-11-04 03:39 pm (UTC)That was something I liked about the second episode, they did start laying out some questions to be answered (like the last scene with Rumplestiltskin and the queen - I really liked that we didn't know if he'd set it all up or not. It's nice when characters fall into gray areas).
