I changed my layout! I'm really sort of happy with it, it being a lot cleaner than my last one. I doubt I'll be using speckled backgrounds on lj for awhile.

Top Gear season 12 started this month! But I've only seen the first episode, but ohmygosh Oliver! Watch Oliver in 10x4 to understand. African adventure ftw! Also, I like that that site has lots of show episodes on the page instead of mucking about with outsourcing (especially when you can't view it without signing up >_<). They don't have season 12 up, for that its falls to trusty Sidereel.

Classes for next semester are all registered for and I actually have 15 hours, a first! It will be my last semester of Latin, meaning that I have one more semester of weekly panic and inability. And then I'll get to actually start my Anthropology major. Oh goodie.

My Egyptian term paper has been moved back a week! :D I will be able to sleep this weekend, isn't that wonderful? The beginning of November is dreadful, all the classes have papers due so close to each other and yet that still does nothing to quell my tendencies toward procrastination. Shiny flash games are such a distraction.

I have never been so disappointed with a show as I am with the season finale of Bones, and I've seen Heroes season 2. Why do writers never know how to write my favorite characters? ;_; Creepy!Hodgins ftw, though. That ending really ruined everything previous episodes have said. I don't think I can watch anymore, not the way I did. Not even Hodgins and Sweets can keep me watching so excitedly, which just shows how upsetting that was. It would have been more acceptable if the actor wanted to leave the show, but where the writers pulled that episode from probably shouldn't be mentioned in respectable society. Gormagon was interesting, why turn the story line into a boring conclusion. It would have been better if something was revealed to the audience but not the cast, just a single scene at the end of the episode to prepare for a more in depth conclusion next season. Or if it had been a twist where someone took down Gormagon on their own or something. ...This has turned into a way to pick up my spirits, so it shall end (since Hillary is probably the only one who has seen any Bones).

House was an excellent ending to the season, even though it was so incredibly sad. I almost forgot what it was like to enjoy and agree with a season finale for any show, good job House! I have a lot of hope for NCIS, especially with the last two episodes (Ziva & Jimmy are ♥s!).

On a different side of things, the anime crowd is making me want to go to some sort of convention. I'll see if I have the money to waste five years from now. (Doctor Who guys are easy to pick to cosplay as, but what girl companion could I be? I'd pick Leela if I was better at sewing and was more comfortable in my own skin.)

I should currently be planning out my history paper. That being said I thought it would be a better utilization of time if I made some Heroes banners. They're just some very simple banners based on things I said here in response to albion1919's fic. No, I didn't make the Sylar/Gabriel dark!fic ones, maybe I will later.

Check them out here because I've no idea where I should actually post them. I love Mr. Muggles! ^_^
