It wasn't official before...
But now it’s official and unconditional, I am accepted to the MA Modern History programme at Durham University.
So that, ladies and gentlemen, is where I plan on being on October 1, 2012 until September 30, 2013.
If Common Sense Was Used in Government and the...
Citizen: I don't believe in abortion.
Government: Then don't get one.
Citizen: I don't believe in birth control.
Government: You don't have to use it.
Citizen: I think gay marriage is a sin.
Government: Don't marry the same sex then.
Citizen: I want my kids to learn about creationism.
Government: Take them to church.

Welcome to Tumblr, my friend!
Dearest Melliss22,
Welcome to the creepy, old cavern that is Tumblr:
It won’t be long until you get completely sucked in:
Hopefully, it will fill you with joy:
And not too much despair:
In any case, I’m happy you’re here:
Have fun, and maybe not waste your life making hundreds of gifs, like I have (the above are just a small, small, sample)
Love,
Bonnie

Blast from my past
I’ve been watching Star Trek: TNG on netflix. Halfway through season 2 already. I used to watch this show all the time when I was little, with my parents, so it brings back a lot of warm and fuzzy feelings.
So far my favorite parts are:
Riker
Riker’s beard
Riker saying “lollipop”
Also Data and Geordi pretending at Holmes and Watson.
Also pretending at writing like...

One after my own heart
Ricky Gervias’s column in the Jan. 13th issue of Entertainment Weekly, struck a chord and had me thinking about it for days. I kept meaning to post a couple of my favorite quotes from it, but kept forgetting… until now.
“Everyone has the right to be offended. And I have the right to offend. The simple fact is, offense is taken, not given … just because you’re...

I just got an email
from University of Warwick about getting myself a Tier 4 Student Visa.
Kind of scary that I have to start thinking about that soon.
But first, HOW DO I DECIDE WHICH BEAUTIFUL BRITISH UNIVERSITY TO STUDY AT?
I’ve already been accepted to 4 places (and declined from only 1).
They’re all so great… good think I have a couple of months to decide.

I never thought
there was such a thing as too much chocolate.
I just consumed 8 rich-as-Richy-Rich truffles (pilfered from work), and my digestive system promptly corrected my error.

A TXT Convo my sis and I just had:
Me (I just emailed her about this hilarious post): You should prolly check your email….
Hill: Should I be scared?

Me: Egyptians have the most ear hair.

Sister: You’re kidding, right?
Me: ….
Me: Yes.

Thoughts on Sherlock:
Gay
Gay
So gay
Untamed amounts of gay
Really, I can’ stress enough how gay
Flawless Irene is flawless
Mycroft continues to be the shape of my soul

The disgruntled email I sent to LEGO this morning
I got an email from LEGO this morning advertising their new Friends line. It’s all pink, aimed at girls and doesn’t have the classic mini-figs.
Click to see what I emailed them:
As an adult, feminist woman, I find myself incredibly disappointed at the LEGO Company’s choice to create and release the LEGO Friend sets, aimed at girls.
In a world where gender boundaries and...

I tried to go to bed early,
but then I had to watch an episode of Misfits… and then another one… and then another… and another.
I’m pretty sure I watched four.
Ended on the first ep of series 3.
I like Rudy so far, but it’s just not the same without Nathan (I never thought I’d miss him, but I do!).
And I’m not sure I like Simon not being weird kid anymore.
I miss weird kid and...

For me, the Doctor Who Soundtrack are sing-alongs
Something I realized at work last week. I’m sitting in my office listening to all the DW soundtracks, and I caught myself singing along to not just Abigail’s song, but ALL OF THE SONGS (by way of weird little noises that are undoubtedly way off-key and un-listenable).
I just can’t help myself…good thing I’m the only one in my office-for-two
…for now…

Yes, you read that right.
My friend Natalie told me about nyanit.com/ which overlays Nyan Cat ontop of any website. I had just found out about nyan.cat from another friend, and decided to combine the two.
As you can see for yourself, the results were glorious.

About tonight's Dexter...
Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter (Dex and Deb) announced they were getting divorced earlier this year.
In tonight’s episode Deb was going all crazy about Dex and trying to sex him up in her dream…
Do the writers hate these two great actors?
WTF?

New song by one of my absolute favorite local (Denver) bands, Churchill.
These folks are super talented and I’m very proud to consider them friends.
Clarification: They’re one of my favorite bands ever, I just happen to be lucky enough to live in the same state as them.

Old Stoneface
Did anyone else think that Old Stoneface looked oddly like Ben Wyatt/Adam Scott?
I’m very curious as to who that monster painting was modeled after…
Thoughts?
