Spring holidays still going strong and still being very kind to me. Today's program, SPN Marathon Take 2. angeliksmall and greedy_dancer are on the way, junk food has been purchased (sugary and salty) and our favourite beer will be in the fridge soon enough. We should be all set. We'll see how many episodes we succeed in watching but we're going for nine, ie from 5x11 to 5x19. With some luck, we'll be ready to watch the last episodes with the rest our respective flists :-)

So, hey, I promised to myself when I went to see Kick Ass that if I ended up enjoying the movie I wouldn't do any kind of lame-o puns on the title but I'm breaking my promise because the film really lived up to said title! It was seriously awesome and it certainly made for a great ride! I can't wait to get my hands on the DVD now. I was hoping we'd get to see the trailer for The Losers but alas it wasn't meant to be. I don't even know when the film will come out in France, it's a sad state of affair, that.

Unrelated, I've had a lot of fun adding prompts to the Kinkmeme #6 over at aianonlovefest and having even more fun reading others'! Even if a third of the prompts I'm tracking are filled, I'll be a happy AI fangirl :-p

Oh, dude, having all those chocolate-y goodness in front of me makes me want to dig in... but I must be strong and wait for the girls to arrive, right? Right *is strong*

*is terribly jealous of your spring break!*

Sounds like you'll have a blast today! Enjoy yourself!

I wish you could get a spring break too! Will you have a break this summer, at least?

We had a blast yesterday and totally fell in love with SPN all over again! And it's nice being up-to-date now; especially as I was afraid to get spoiled before having watched the eps!

I had a vacation in March for a week and will be going back to Wisconsin in August. So a little ways for me to go!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

August it is, then. How long will you have? Une des avantages de bosser dans une fac c'est quand on a toujours le mois d'août; entre trois et quatre semaines. Cette année, je pourrai peut-être prendre quatre semaines... ça devrait être un grand moment de bonheur :-)

Et puis je vais avoir besoin de tout ce temps si je veux espérer préparer mon mémoire correctement, de toute façon.

I'm not sure how long I'll be gone in August, but I can't imagine it'll be more than a week or 10 days. My family's having a get together in honor of Pappy, my grandfather who passed away earlier this month, on his birthday, August 21st. I think that'll be a good time to honor his memory.

Ah I've always been so jealous of France's care for its people. Vacation time? Americans don't really understand that concept. People think you're getting kind of greedy if you have more than a month of vacation time per year. We just love working ourselves to death and burning out that way.

To be fair, not everyone has the same vacation time as I have (my parents never had a lot, for instance). It's more of a compensation than anything else for me. Working for a university means you'll get paid less than you could if you did the same work in another sector, so I take all the time off as a compensation of sorts :-)

J'attends The Losers aussi. En ce moment, j'entends parler de pas mal de films que je veux voir et ils n'ont jamais de date de sortie française. C'est rageant.

C'est super frustrant, qu'est-ce-qu'ils fichent ?! Ils peuvent pas penser un peu à nous ? *pout*

you wanted the loosers trailer ? lol
I WAS DYING TO SEE SCOTT PILGRIM TRAILER BEFORE THE MOVIE AS IN UK AND IN USA AND SURELY IN EVERY COUNTRY OF THE WORLD BUT FRANCE DOES SUCK ! ><
to have both trailers would have been the most awesome...

but YEAH KICK ASS WAS FUCKING AMAZING !!! I wasn't disappointed even if i had great expectations for it :D

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I totally wanted the Losers trailer, dude, JDM on the big screen again omg! Alors grâce à toi, j'ai appris l'existence de Scott Pilgrim (v. the World?) et ça a l'air bien barré comme film !

Kick Ass totally kicked ass, didn't it? *loves*

[jedicathy.livejournal.com]

What ??? tu ne connaissais pas l'existence de scott pilgrim ???? c'est genre le film que j'attends le plus cette année !! déjà la ba en jette, mais de toute façon 1/ le comics est génial
2/ Edgar Wright est génial
3/ Michael Cera est génial
(et je parle même de chris evans et de brandon routh avec sa teinture blonde lol)
J'AI TROP TROP HATE ! (d'où ma frustration de ne pas avoir eu le trailer alors que le reste du monde l'a eu lol)
