castalieThree-day weekend ahead \o/ We're planning on having a quiet weekend: we'll be seeing the in-laws this afternoon, then I'm going to the movies tomorrow with the FP (to see Snowpiercer). As for Monday... well, we'll see what strikes our fancy, maybe brunch followed with a movie? Maybe just a movie? Or maybe we'll just stay home and do nothing, who knows, the possibilities are endless ;)
Something certain is that I'll include some tv watching. I'm on a roll, no way am I getting behind now. I'm doing my Very Determined face right now :) I'm caught up on Arrow; 2x05 was another enjoyable (and so entertaining) episode. I really like Sara and enjoyed the fact that we got to learn more about her - independently from Ollie's narrative. I'm hoping we'll get to see more of her later on. Knowing the show, chances are we will. There should be the flashbacks, anyway, but I'd like to see her in present time again. Come back soon, Sara!
Speaking of the flashbacks, I'm enjoying them more and more. I know, I've come a long way, haven't I? ;) But ever since we found out that Oliver hadn't actually been stranded on the island those five years, I've been dying to find out where he'd been and what the hell he'd been doing and I'm excited at the prospect of finding out this part of Oliver's past. Also, I really want to know more about his involvement with the Bratva, so curious about that part too!
Something else that filled me with glee last episode was the ending. That little Dig-Ollie scene was sweet enough but to have Oliver admit that he didn't want to keep his secrets any longer, that he basically needed to share them with Diggle and, finally, to have him reveal the part of him not being on the island for the whole duration of his time... that actually made me clap my hands in delight lol YAY! So I don't know how much he'll reveal and whatnot but just the fact that he wanted to is such a huge thing when you know how closed off he's been *hugs Oliver*
Then there's Haven. I've finished season 1 and I'm on episode 4 (I think) of season 2. Still enjoying it; Audrey, Nathan and Duke make me very happy. I love Audrey so much, she's such a cool character ♥ Nathan and Duke fill me with glee, their relationship is so interesting! It's obvious they share a deep bond while at the same time being at odds. Though I like that their friendship is actually always put on the fore. I just love how concerned Duke seems to be about Nathan's well being all the time; and he's not being very subtle about it, either! I approve, obviously, thank you, Duke :)
I do feel like they're not using the show's to its full potential so far, though. In terms of angst, I mean - so this is a very biased opinion lol It's just that things could get so much more intense sometimes, you know? Just with Nathan's affliction, really. The dude cannot feel anything, as in anything at all, right? At first you only think about the pain factor then you start to grasp the true meaning of this... not being able to feel people's touch? The sun on your skin? Actually, how does it even work? Does it feel like he's walking on nothing? He can't feel the weight of his clothes, the furniture under him when he's sitting, the pen he's holding, nothing at all? It must be like being completely disconnected from the physical world, like being in a vacuum. Seriously, that's just an awful thought. I must be overthinking this but I can't help but think of how that must feel. Or not, as the case may be.
Anyway lol All that to say, still enjoying Haven (seriously, what's the deal with Audrey? That season premiere was so intriguing. Also, I really like the new character - don't know how long she'll be staying but I'm enjoying her role at the moment) and impatient to see what comes next!
Speaking of what comes next, I must catch up on Person of Interest, Downton Abbey as well as White Collar. A fangirl's work is never done :)
