Happy new year, everyone.

(Fine, I'm 8 minutes late, but it's 2008, right?)

It's going to be '08 soon, and, uh, I'll get my Shanghai post up with pictures and all... When I upload the pictures to my computer.

Then I'll whine about how my dad doesn't appreciate artistic photography. I take a picture of sunrise on the plane and he deletes it. Why? "It's not in focus" WTH, it's NOT OUT OF FOCUS. IT'S... IT'S A PICTURE YOU CAN'T TAKE EVERY DAY. So geram, man. Then after that, I had this nice picture of car taillights. Obviously it wasn't in focus, but it had very nice light effects.

HE DELETED IT.

GRAH.

So... URGH. FOR GOODNESS' SAKE, I ALREADY SAID, "IF YOU WANT TO DELETE PHOTOS, TELL ME FIRST!" But, NOOOOO, he HAD to HAPPILY delete them!

[/rant]

Oh, and there was this family of 15 who were really, really annoying. Ew.

Will update about Shanghai tomorrow when I'm all settled.

And a small (big) announcement.

I LOST MY PHONE.

DON'T BOTHER SMS-ing MY NUMBER. IF I CAN GET THE SAME NUMBER BACK, I'LL INFORM YOU GUYS.

*sigh*

Ack, and it's so hot here now. Gah. Guess I've acclimatized to the 1-12degrees of Shanghai.

I'll be leaving for the airport in about an hour or so...

So, merry christmas to all of you, hope you remember the reason why there was a Christmas in the first place, and thank God for the great year you've had (No matter how horrible it was anyway).

And, all the best to those who are going to collect their PMR results on the 27th. I'm sure you'll all do well. Don't be too disappointed when you don't get 7A's, 'cause it ISN'T the end of the world, but DON'T be happy that you got 7B's, either.

Good grief. You know you're old when you start giving advise like that out. Ew.

Enjoy the last week of the holidays, people.

I'll be chilling in Shanghai while all of you have Christmas/Boxing day/whatever lunches/dinners/meals without me.

I'll see you when I'm back on the 31st, frosted and all.

Stolen from LJ.

Rules:
Pick five of your favourite fandoms and answer the questions:
1. House MD
2. CSI:NY
3. ER
4. Blackadder Goes Forth
5. Prince of Tennis (Only because I'm out of fandoms.)

House MD;;
01. The first character I first fell in love with:
Erm... Hard to say. I guess, House.

02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
Wilson. And his Eyebrows of Great Doom

03. The character everyone else loves that I don’t:
Chase. And Foreman.

04. The character I love that everyone else hates:
Thirteen! And Cameron. But Cameron's got a big fanbase, so there are people who also 'love' her.

05. The character I used to love that I don’t any longer:
Cameron?

06. A Friendship I love:
Cole and 13. Until Cole did the whole backstabby thing with Kutner.

07. The character I’d want to be:
Uh. I dunno. I don't want to be House, even though he's brilliant and all, nor do I want to be like Cuddy (Uh. Unspeakable reasons involving cleavage flashing), or Wilson(Spouse cheater!), or Chase(Annoyeeeeng!), or Cameron(Too... I dunno... straight?), or Foreman(It's ARROGANCE, I tell you!), or Taub(Spouse cheater, AGAIN), or Kutner(MASOCHIST!), or 13(Sadlly, she's possibly dying?). But I think my mindset's a little like Kutner's. Why be the same with everyone else? Being unique is what makes us individuals in the first place. But I'm more of a sadist than a masochist.

08. The character I’d slap:
Amber. Just 'cause I can.

09. The pairing I love:
House/Carpet FTW!

10. A pairing I despise:
House/Every female character. It's getting annoying. Yes, Hugh's hot, but can you stop pairing him with every female alive?!

11. Favourite character:
House. And 13. =D

CSI:NY;;
01. The first character I first fell in love with:
Mac.

02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
... Flack. I hated his hair in Season 1, but I barely watched that, anyway.

03. The character everyone else loves that I don’t:
Adam. I really, really, REALLY don't like Adam. For goodness' sake, you've worked in that lab for more than 2 years! Stop being such a nervous wreck! It's ANNOYING!

04. The character I love that everyone else hates:
Lindsay. HAH! I started watching NY again when Anna Belknap joined the cast. Yay, me!

05. The character I used to love that I don’t any longer:
No one! I love the cast!

06. A Friendship I love:
Mac and Lindsay. They really are a good mentor/student pair.

07. The character I’d want to be:
Hawkes =D 'cuz he was a child prodigy.

08. The character I’d slap:
Uuuhh.... Kendall! Kendall! I've always wanted to slap her in the 2 episodes she appeared in! And Adam! I can slap both of them!

09. The pairing I love:
Sid/Dead body! I was kidding. Danny/Lindsay!

10. A pairing I despise:
Uuuh... Adam/Kendall?

11. Favourite character:
All of them but Adam. =D

ER (Early seasons);;
01. The first character I first fell in love with:
Susan Lewis. And Mark Greene. And Doug Ross.

02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
Carol Hathaway.

03. The character everyone else loves that I don’t:
Uuh... Benton? I dunno whether he was liked. He's such an old character.

04. The character I love that everyone else hates:
Erm... Kerry Weaver? 'cause Laura Innes rocks. Hee. And she directed an episode of House. Informed Consent, which was, incidentally, one of my favourite episodes.

05. The character I used to love that I don’t any longer:
Erm... Roberto Romano? I thought he was cool at first, then he got on my nerves. He started grating and grating and grating and... forget it.

06. A Friendship I love:
Mark and Doug!

07. The character I’d want to be:
Probably none of them. They're pretty messed up, eventhough being an ER doctor is cool.

08. The character I’d slap:
Romano.

09. The pairing I love:
Mark/Susan, which went defunct in Season 3... =(

10. A pairing I despise:
Mark/Corday. HOMG. I didn't know they hooked up 'til around season 6 or 8, and Corday was just... Not for Mark.

11. Favourite character:
Uh... Tie between Mark, Doug, Susan and Kerry.

Blackadder Goes Forth;;
01. The first character I first fell in love with:
Edmund Blackadder. Hee, Rowan Atkinson's a genius.

02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
Uh... Captain Darling. He's so funny with Blackadder.

03. The character everyone else loves that I don’t:
Dunno. I like all of them. But ol' Flashheart was annoying.

04. The character I love that everyone else hates:
I love all of them! I dunno who hates them.

05. The character I used to love that I don’t any longer:
No one!

06. A Friendship I love:
Blackadder and George. 'cause Rowan Atkinson's very pessimistic Blackadder and Hugh Laurie's very optimistic George made a very cute pair.

07. The character I’d want to be:
None of them! I don't want to be stuck in WW1!

08. The character I’d slap:
Melchett. Hee. Stephen Fry gives him the funniest laughs

09. The pairing I love:
Blackadder/Darling and Blackadder/George

10. A pairing I despise:
Cross-Dressing George (Georgina)/Melchett. But it gave us a lot of laughs

11. Favourite character:
Blackadder

Prince of Tennis;;
01. The first character I first fell in love with:
Syuusuke Fuji.

02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
Kaidoh.

04. The character I love that everyone else hates:
Atobe... Hee.

05. The character I used to love that I don’t any longer:
Momoshiro. He used to be so cool...

06. A Friendship I love:
Tezuka/Fuji

07. The character I’d want to be:
Fuji. Or Tezuka.

08. The character I’d slap:
Echizen!

09. The pairing I love:
Kikumaru/Oishi, and Tezuka/Fuji

10. A pairing I despise:
Echizen/Tezuka. Ew.

11. Favourite character:
Fujiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii--!

That's about it. Anymore acronyms/short forms/initials you would like to add, write it in the comments box! Whoo!

I just realized that we haven't said anything about the new House promo photos yet.

Click ['ere] to see 'em.

They're supposedly photos for 410, but the only thing I notice about the episode is the pic of Hugh with the patient.

New team+Old team+Wilson-Cuddy!

They all need to see the tailor. Their pants are too long. Especially Chase. Those poor pants...

But, seriously, where's Cuddy?

And don't get me started on the weirdness of *some* of their outfits. *cough*CameronThirteen*cough*

My life is so eventful right now, I can make you cry...

...

of boredom.

Yeah, so now my sis and I are doing all the housework since my maid's gone back to the Phillipines for her hols. So, yeah. Mop, mop, mop, sweep, mop, iron, sweep, wash... Oh, well. At least I'm doing something.

Oh, MS, now I know why there was a big, BIG advert of Dexter on CSI:NY - Showtime is a CBS-owned company, so they can advertise in their own shows. Hm.

And a little The Black Donnellys/Jonathan Tucker picspam so that MS knows what Jonathan Tucker looks like - if you haven't googled a pic of him yet, that is.


It's a TBD promo pic.

And so is this one. With everyone!



....Posers....

*Sigh* NBC cancelled a good show. Oh, well. Doubt it'll ever come back, now with the cast having other projects, and OW supposedly signing a series-regular contract for House. No Jenny Reilly then, which means one half of Tommy Donnelly's story gets ripped off. Hooray.

I've only finished the Sulphuric Acid bit of the Chem project. ONLY. Time to get your ass back to work, woman. Sheesh.

I was looking at some old Medical Investigations screencaps in an Anna Belknap fan community at LJ.

Lookit this.

Looks like Candy, right?

LOL.
