Interests:I am a history buff, and I've been studying Czar Nicholas II and his family since I was 11 (I'm a nerd). I've also been acting since I was six years old, and I love every minute of it. I also enjoy writing, reading, and knitting (I'm pretty sure the last hobby is a hint at the future in which I am a cat lady). My favorite TV shows are La Femme Nikita, Higher Ground, and Firefly. I also like Mutant X, Roswell, Stargate SG-1, Buffy, Angel, MI-5, Earth 2, Battlestar Galactica, Wildfire, The Unit, etc. Oh, and Roy Dupuis is the man I want to marry.
Okay, so I don't actually have a sponsor. But I have nothing exciting to say, and this song has been stuck in my head all week:
(No actual video, just the song.)
Please tell me you'll fight this fight I can't see without your light I need you to breathe into my life Don't tell me this is goodbye I won't grieve It's not yet time Each breath breathed is keeping hope alive
So keep breathing Go on breathe in Keep on breathing Go on breathe in Just breathe
Each breath breathed means we're alive And life means that we can find The reasons to keep on getting by And if reasons we can't find We'll make up some to get by 'Til breath by breath we'll leave this behind
So keep breathing Go on breathe in Keep on breathing Go on breathe in Just breathe
All you have to do is breathe All you have to do is breathe
So keep breathing Go on breathe in Keep on breathing Go on breathe in Just breathe
So lately, I've been in a bit of a funk (which is a nice way of saying life sucks chickens at the moment). And, when I'm in a funk, I feel the need to change things. Not in a drastic way, just in a way that feels like I've accomplished something. So, today I tore apart my room and almost filled an entire box of stuff to donate to AMVETS.
And, oh yeah. I chopped off my hair, which was down to the midpoint of my back.
I blame Miranda Raison:
And the fact that my funk has lead me to watch waaaay too many episodes of Spooks.
I watched episode 4.7 of Spooks for the second time. Ever.
I know this doesn't seem like a feat to anyone, but let me explain. 4.7 is the episode of Spooks in which Fiona dies. I know, I know. Characters die on TV. It's sad. We move on. But there are certain couples that I am utterly in love with (see previous post), and Fiona and Adam are one of those couples. They are just so utterly connected to one another. They are a married couple, and I think that makes them stronger as people in the show and as characters for us to watch (like Zoe and Wash....Wash! *sobs). The fact that they work alongside one another for MI-5 is just so fascinating. Both of them are addicted to the job, to the adrenaline rush of it all, and yet they are both constantly worried about each other. That and they have an adorable son, Wes, that they want a better world for...
I digress.
Anywho, because Fiona dies in 4.7...I quit watching the show. Not out of anger, but out of the fact that I just couldn't imagine Adam without his other half. Currently, the show is going into S8 (though, the US is behind and we can't even see S7 yet), and I've heard about so many amazing plotlines and characters...guh. So I've decided to bite the bullet. I watched 4.7...and cried like a small child. But I'm going to continue onward!!! Lol. And I know, because it's Spooks, there will be more crying. But I also know there will be more amazing characters to fall in love with, so it all evens out :)
