Aug. 7th, 2012 06:13 pmMy days pretty much all look the same lately, and they're not as fun as I would like them to be. Guess that's what happens when you're busy writing your thesis and facing a deadline that seems to get closer at an alarming pace - I say 'seems to' but I'm pretty sure it is the reality >_< Evidence under the cut:

You get the picture :-)
In order to keep my sanity intact, I try to go out in the afternoon/evening. Little sample:

Lazy time at Starbucks.

Lunch at a new Bento place I wanted to try.

Afternoon tea with some of the most delicious cupcakes on Earth.
Those cupcakes really did help save my sanity that day, btw. Berko cupcakes are almost indecently delicious.
My reward for today was the new Teen Wolf episode \o/ Hee so many thing happened! Talk about a huge mess! I can't wait to see how it's all going to end. Especially as one of the characters should kick the bucket next week? Please please let it not be Isaac! There's no way they'd kill off (or not permanently) any of my A-list favourites but I'm worried about Isaac now. Don't kill Isaac, please pretty please? He's totally part of my second favourite pairing (Isaac/Scott ftw! After Derek/Scott, of course).
It doesn't have anything to do with anything but Chris continues to impress me with his attitude; he's lost his sister, he had to help his wife die, he's watching his daughter slowly lose it but he's still trying to go by the code and keep things as noble as they can be, no matter how angry and lost he can be himself. You impress me, sir!
Also, omg people, I know I sound like a broken record but how is Derek/Scott not part of Fandom's popular pairings? Especially when we get dialogues like this one: "Your best ally has always been anger, Derek, but what you lack most is a heart. That’s why you’ve always known that you need Scott more than anyone. And even somebody as burned and dead on the inside as me knows better than to underestimate the simple yet undeniable power of human love." I repeat, Scott is Derek's heart. Peter, of all people, is seeing it. I'm not even making that up, you guys, it's canon ♥
That little scene was fantastic even without my slash goggles on, really. This is exactly why I love Scott, it was pretty sweet hearing one of the characters spell it out :-) Same thing with that first scene between Isaac and Scott, btw. Did I mention I love Isaac/Scott as well?

Please please let it not be Isaac!
I am so worried about Isaac. And Jackson. And Boyd and Erica. And Chris, for some reason. Basically everyone who isn't A-list (and even there I'm not too calm).
As far as I'm concerned, if they feel the need to kill someone, Gerard is totally welcome to kick it in as painful a manner as possible. ;)

I know, it's stressing, isn't it??

no subject
Date: 2012-08-07 07:47 pm (UTC)Chris est vraiment LE gardien du code et la Voix de la Raison, et vu la situation, c'est vraiment tout à son honneur. J'espère qu'il aura l'occasion de reprendre les rennes avant de les donner à Allison, une fois qu'elle aura repris ses esprits. Par contre, j'espère qu'il n'aura pas à mourir pour ça. J'espère juste que les auteurs se sont dit que tuer la mère, c'était déjà bien assez pour le moment.

Date: 2012-08-08 12:19 pm (UTC)Good luck with both thesis and sanity, maintaining thereof! (The "Now Panic" sticker seems very apropos. :D)
I'm resisting any kind of Teen Wolf temptation. *sits firmly in No Wolves Corner* Well, sadly I'm avoiding everything TV show by virtue of not having time to watch anything rather than not succumbing to fandom pimpage. :/
I dreamt I was speaking French with you, in Paris! *boggles at brain* I know I miss you, mate, and I miss Paris, so no need for the subconscious to tell me... ;) But maybe Brain was bored of so much English all the time. ;) (I was telling you that I don't want to let die the little French I still know.)
In conclusion: cupcakesss :D

Date: 2012-08-08 01:53 pm (UTC)Thank you, I sure need it.
Aww, that's a sad reason for not succumbing to fandom pimpage! I do hope things will get sightly less crazy so that you can enjoy some (well deserved) fannish time. And whenever you do, please to be remembering to come to me so that I can have you sit in the Hell Yes Wolves corner? ;-)
Aww again! You know that you're always welcome in my humble abode. Cookie has heard about you so she wouldn't be meeting a complete stranger! Or I could come and visit you one of these days!
I know it's not the same but if you want me to mail you in French, it'll be my pleasure. Unless you were strictly speaking about not letting die the (not so little) oral French you speak.
In conclusin: *hugsss*

Though what I wanted to comment on was Chris. I agree, he's impressing me too. I love how he fully believes in the code and over the last two seasons is having to deal with the fact that the rest of his family are willing to push it aside. That has to be hard to deal with.

Date: 2012-08-12 11:25 am (UTC)Isaac, indeed! I'm really hoping he won't be killed off omg! Not the second-half of my second pairing, please!
If they kill him, there will be zero chance for that pairing to really develop. And I can't lose hope like that, I can't!
