DUST OFF YOU CONVERSE, IT'S TIME TO SAVE THE UNIVERSE!
Well, well, well. Russell T Davies is leaving as the head writer of Doctor Who.
YEAH!!!!!!!!!
Actually, now that he's leaving, I am willing to admit (as I have actually said before) that he isn't too horrendous as a writer, he's just really unoriginal. However we do really owe him completely as he was the driving force behind the regeneration of Doctor Who, so for this I salute you Mr. RTD!
*SALUTE*
But this means that the amazing Mr. Steven Moffat has taken over as the head writer. This is brilliant!! Moffat has only ever done (admittedly amazing) one off episodes of Doctor Who, such as 'Blink' (which he has won a plethora of awards for), 'The Empty Child'/'The Doctor Dances' and 'The Girl in the Fireplace'. So we know that he can do amazing one offs, (with a ridiculous number of references to bananas within these episodes. This is good) but to build up a finale through the series with lots of hidden messages and obvious clues as Mr. RTD does, we shall see. You see that's the thing with RTD, he has really good ideas, but he can't write them very well. But this should be one hell of a jump up for Doctor Who and I personally cannot wait.
However, Doctor Who has been postponed because of bloody Eurovision. This is pathetic! Also, after this series, the wonderful Mr. Tennant (*sigh*) is toddling off to the RSC to play in both 'Hamlet' the greatest tragedy ever written, and 'Love's Labours Lost'. I HAVE to see at least one of these, if not both (possibly more than once). David Tennant is possibly the greatest stage actor of out time. I mean, really, he is amazing. But this means that next year there will only be four, FOUR!! :'( feature length episodes of Doctor Who. But he has confirmed he's signed up for the next series after this in 2010 when Mr. Moffat will officially be the head writer, and he has said that he 'can't really see anyone else playing the part for a long time'. :) Good.
Well there you go. New head writer, which I've been complaining about for a long time, I'm just sad that it's not me. (Actually Mr. Moffat said in an interview that he had based his entire career around getting this job, he had applied for it previously, but he got turned down. After all, he was only seven. He reminds me of me)

NOW I LIKE HER.
I was reading an old book that I found about Greek mythology etc. (it was a great form of revision, if only I had read it before my Classics exam it would have been so helpful) and I have thoroughly decided that I like this one.
She is *Artemis*
Artemis was the Goddess of the Hunt. She had 50 hounds and 50 Dreiads (wood nymphs) and a quiver full of painless silver arrows. She was the daughter of Zeus and Leto as well as being last of the Three Maiden Goddesses. She was also a part of the Triple Goddess. The Triple Goddess was the Moon in three forms. Artemis didn't carry the moon across the sky, yet she was still known as the moon. Although she was stunningly beautiful, she was very cold and she swore never to marry (Good on her! Proactiveness?Pah!) . She had only one love, a hunter named Orion (the hunter constellation), and even that's debatable. She was the Protector of Young Women. She was incredibly cool

TEE HEE, DAYTIME TV
I love study leave. I have now become really addicted to daytime tv, which is actually total rubbish, and it makes me giggle. Admittedly you never really switch on 'The Jeremy Kyle Show' with the expectation of decent, quality viewing, but good lord it is funny.
I mean, really. Some of the people here do not deserve to be parents, they really don't. There is one woman on now who is a gobby little... thing. She is in her early twenties, four babies by four different fathers, is again pregnant, her youngest (who is about three) was once taken to hospital for taking hash.What kind of a mother is she!?! It's disgusting. And she is about as thick as two short planks and she really deserves a slap.
It is soooooo funny watching these people who must obviously think before they go on, that if they storm on yelling and making a scene, then it will make them look better, but really?! How dumb are these people. Where do they find them? I pity their researchers.
It actually works out quite well, I can watch JK, then 'The Wright Stuff' which always amuses me as the dude will make a point, argue it valiently, and then totally contradict himself. It makes me sporfle. However I credit him with far more intelligence than I do Jeremy Kyle. Waaaaaayyyy more than Jeremy Kyle.
I can then flick back to watch 'Loose Women' which is just great tv. Tis awesome.
Then I can grab a snack, watch 'Doctors' then 'Diagnosis Murder' then get lunch (although it is about three/four o'clock), then watch 'Paul O'Grady', and then lie through my teeth and tell my mother I have been revising hard all day.
Yup, study leave is made of awesome.
