OH COME, COME, MR. DAVIES!!

(BTW before you comment I know that it wasn't RTD's name on the titles, however as he's the head writer and to blame for most of the naffness in Doctor Who I'm slagging him off out of habit. Plus I'm willing to bet that the not so good, or hidden things etc. are all on RTD's head)

The whole synchronised catching of various objects as they fall when an earthquake strikes, anybody remembering Mary Poppins here? It's like last time he re-used the whole 'stop or I will stop you' line. The man has only a handful of catchphrases and then he steals off other people. (I'm complaining whilst watching this episode, with the very pretty David Tennant :) therefore between complaints I'm *squeeing* with joy.)
It's a little like a psychic face off! Amusing, but unoriginal, especially the 'real name is hidden'. A penny for every cliche would make me rich. And I like how RTD has got her completely stoned, that's a lovely message to send out to the young kids watching. "Get high! You can see the future!" (However, admittedly it is historically accurate, but I won't bore you with that)
And those marble designs... if you have ever seen the Disney film 'Atlantis' then you are going to see the similarity, however I love the eyes on the back of the hands, they are really cool.

Oh my God!! The Energy Converter!! Anybody see it?!?!

Obviously when I post this the episode shall be finished and you will all get the relevance, but still, anybody get it yet?
You see that is one thing that I must credit Mr. RTD with, he is very good with hidden messages and themes, and anagrams actually:
MISTER SAXON = Master no Six
ASTRID= Tardis
etc.
And throughout the last series the image of the Timelords (like the one on the pocket watch) and Saxon's name being weaved throughout it, plus the drums being stolen from the themetune etc. Well done Mr RTD, we have found your skill.

Lol, 'Oh that's allright... just us girls'

Ok Mr RTD, your other skill is camping up the Doctor beyond belief. E.g 'Tooth and Claw':
'Didn't you think anything odd about my house staff?'
'Oh I dunno, strong athletic men, home alone, I just thought you were very happy'

Oooooh! Water Gun! Snazzy weapon. Comedic.

Sorry that this is jumping a bit, I'm watching and only typing at appropriate moments.

Oh god, 'The burden of the Timelords. I'm the only one left' Penny per cliche? (However I am loving the fire!! That bright yellow watergun just looks so James Bond)

Tut tut, 'Lava?'

Is anybody else picking up on all of the 'gone' and the 'lost'. The breeding planet of the Adipose was lost, their planet was lost, the bees are all gone.

Congradulations Mr. RTD!!! The whole 'I'm the Doctor and I cause *enter major catastrophic event from history here* was so an idea that I would have used had I had your job.
*applauds*

Cue lovely computer graphics.

Aaaaw... poor Donna. This bit is actually really sad, especially that poor kid. Go RTD! Make us cry! (May I point out that I'm not actually crying, all is well) Doesn't David Tennant look good when he's being angsty.

OH! What a shot!! Glaring bright light, holding out a hand to save them. Nice!

No.... not the 'who are you Doctor?' Penny?

The Doctor is a household God! LOL!

And next week is the return of the Ood.

That is all I have to say. Toodles

DOCTOR WHO FINALE

In the series four finale we have not only the return of Rose Tyler and family, John Barrowman is returning as Captain Jack, Elizabeth Sladen is there as Sarah Jane Smith, Martha Jones will have tagged along by this point, K9 is even in this episode, but best of all, Sir Ben Kingsly (is one of those who have been named, but some of the other names are just ludicrous) is taking up the role of...(drum roll) DAVROS!! Yay! This should be good, unless of course Mr Russel T Davies is writing it, and then it shall be highly disappointing. It does however, explain how the void has been travelled through yet again, as that is where Davros is being prisoned hence it's breaking down allowing Rose through blah blah blah.
We know for certain that, aside from the doctor and his harem (RTD's turning the doctor into a pimp!), some of the episode was shot on the beach that Rose last saw the Doctor in 'Doomsday', and quite a lot seems to have been shot in a remote, old englishy looking village. There are also spoiler photos out there of Rose holding a huge gun, that actually looks like one of the fire extinguishers from 'the Girl in the Fireplace', maybe they just ran out of creative ideas. Afterall RTD has made all of his 'big' epsiodes by regurgitating a number of old monsters. Even on 'Gridlock' which I don't think necessarily needed a monster, he just stole the Macra and re-used them.
Either way this is set to be one of the best Doctor Who episodes since the regeneration. We'll have to wait and see.

JUST TO LET YOU KNOW...

I'm much happier today.
Until I catch sight of my costume....
then I cry again :(

*depressed sigh*
^-^

RANT!

Let's see if I can do this systematically, I am ill. I've been ill the last couple of days, however I dragged myself into school today in order to take the Midsummer rehearsal, because the teacher wasn't in, so it was just me. It took the cast (or at least those that had shown up) at good fifteen minutes to either show up, or shut the fuck up so that we could actually get something done. Of course when I say get something done I mean stumble through because nobody can actually be arsed to do anything even vaguely productive. I was actually on the verge of tears, st one point I walked out, hoping that this would have an effect, which it didn't. Some of the actors have not yet learnt their lines, we have been doing this play since September, we're performing on Tuesday. They are going to be stood on stage making up Shakespeare as they go along. This is pretty much impossible. Add on to this Titania had a go at the Mechanicals for talking when she was trying to perform, only then to start talking when they were on stage.
My head felt it was like it was about to explode.
In this play I have to wear the most horrific costume ever seen, believe me, it is a bright green tutu, green and black stripey tights, black vest top, black wings. Now that sounds bad, I'm fat, and I have to wear this.
I am also, and the scary thing is this may actually be quite true, I am turning into my drama teacher (I have two drama teachers, one is like a happier version of the other, I am not turning into the happy one. (Although admittedly I think that people are actually really mean to unhappy-drama teacher, because she's really quite nice, if not just nowty)). Apparently I am being as nowty and as snide and blah.... the long and the short of it is that I'm becoming her, I don't want to!!! I really don't!
Plus I am failing three out of the four A Levels that I'm studying. The only one that I am not failing is Theatre Studies, which I was actually contemplating taking on to uni, but I can't get a handful of year tens to shut up and do what they're supposed to be doing, so what fucking chance do I have of ever becoming a director that people would take seriously or pay attention to. I really don't know why I'm bothering anymore. The only thing that I really love, I'm actually really, really crap at. I mean, for fuck's sake I only lasted one day as a potwash, before I quit because it was too hard.
I should just jump off a cliff now and save people the bother of having to put up with the huge failure.

Rant complete.
Goodbye

YOU KNOW I'VE JUST REALISED......

Anyone who reads this blog is going to think that I'm disturbed, writing about crash diets and slit wrists. This is not good. To all those who are worried that I'm suicidal, I'm not.
Well... not until I look at the stupid bloody Midsummer Night's Dream costume. Trust me, if you had to wear it, you would be depressed too. It actually makes me cry. I'm not joking. Seriously.

*sob*

DO CRASH DIETS ACTUALLY WORK?

Serious question: Do they?
I want to know, no,
I need to know.

Being the fat one is no fun.

WHY DO I BOTHER?

What is the point? I really don't get it any more. I am losing any and all motivation to do any form of work.
I have been sat in front of my computer for about an hour now, and haven't even really thought about working. Admittedly all the work that I have to do tonight was the work that I didn't do monday or tuesday. The thing is, out of the seven essays that I have to do, I only reall want to do three of them, because I'd feel really guilty if I didn't, but they are the only ones I can get away with not doing. The others are for teachers that either a) scare me, or b) I don't particularly want to interact with in the slightest, which I would have to do if they were telling me off.
Life sucks
