I went and tried this little pizza place called "Valarmos" which I'd read about in the UW's student newspaper. Supposedly their calzones are "the size of a football."

LIIEESS! It's a whole half-an-inch shorter in height than a football! Never mind that it's the same length and width, I declare false advertisement!

I got the "clucker calzone" which is marinated chicken, roasted red peppers, red onions and mozzarella. The crust I could pretty much eat by itself, the mozzarella is thick and gooey enough that you can pull, and pull, and pull and the cheese won't let go, and they don't skimp on the rest of the "toppings." Though, I sorta wish I'd asked to have it without the onions, because it tends to drown out the rest of the flavors. I'd finished a little less than half, not because I was stuffed but because I didn't want to run the risk of overeating and then having to walk in the heat down to the bus-stop (because there was no way I was walking all the way back to UW from where Valarmos is). The price is excellent, too. Less than $10 for what is now counting as 2 meals. It reheats pretty well, but definitely better fresh.

Annddd.....that's the end of my random food review.

I went to B&N earlier and got the last of my "required" texts for Rome, as well as a Moleskine notebook which fits nice and snug in my back pocket ^___^. I was going to renew my B&N membership, which is why I refrained from indulging myself with sci-fi/fantasy books, but found out my sister beat me to it. It's probably for the better; I've got enough to buy for Rome as it is.

Also went to Baskin Robbins. And bought a World Class Chocolate milkshake; not very original, considering I always have the same flavor when I buy shakes, but it's just oh-so-delicious. *mourns the fact that she has no more World Class Chocolate milkshake*

So, for Rome, I have to prepare this little presentation/talk(s) on something Roman. A site, books, etc. etc. I didn't know what I wanted to do, and I kept putting it off until a few days ago because I just plain didn't know, but a new email from the prof made me decide to actually research my choices. I went back to the list of topics, and one kept leaping out of the screen at me:

Via Appia.

I felt like I'd seen that before. So, I Wikipedia'd (that really, really shouldn't be a verb) it, and found that it was the Appian Way. And I recalled from a little earlier, when I'd been looking up Doctor Who quotes to put on my door, that there was a quote the Doctor said in Fires of Pompeii: "Yes way no way Appian Way!"

......I e-mailed the prof and asked to have that as my topic. Heh.

I have a Korean presentation coming up this Thursday *shudders* and I needed a topic on Korea, cultural, linguistic, historical, etc. I decided to do the 1988 Summer Olympics that was hosted in Seoul, and only after I realized the connection between Via Appia-Doctor Who did I remember that the Doctor was a torchbearer in the Olympics.

[in House's subconscious]
Dr. Cuddy: [Stops stripping and looks at House] I'm distracting you. [starts to get up]
Dr. House: No!
[Cut back to Cuddy who is now dressed normally and sits down next to House]
Dr. House: Dance, woman!
Dr. Cuddy: [Resignedly] You'd rather be diagnosing.
Dr. House: I screamed "no"!
Dr. Cuddy: And your own subconscious ignored you. I guess you'd rather fantasize about finding symptoms. How screwed up is that? --House, House's Head

approximately exactly 3 weeks until I am done with the '07-'08 schoolyear and move out of the room until September. O.o

1 month & 24 days until 2nd season EUReKA comes out on DVD!!!!!! Except, I can't really get it until at the very earliest an additional 3 days, since it overlaps with Rome. And then I'd have to see if I even have the money to buy it. But YAY EUReKA!!!!!!!

Also: 2 months & 7 days until EUReKA begins [the first half of!!] 3rd season! And episode titles for about the first 6 episodes were unveiled!!! Drones, dogs, Mummies (Are you my Mum--err, oops, wrong show), mentions of phase, and apparently somebody named Bob! *flails* There's also this woman named Eva Thorne who's being called ( minor, not really spoilery )

3 weeks & 6 days until I leave for Rome! Non parlo italiano, ma sarà eccellente! And, randomly, "I'm Welsh" is "sono gallese." Heh.

January '09 Dollhouse premieres! *waves Joss Whedon-fan flag* Apparently FOX is doing some weird experimental thing where they're actually reducing commercial time, meaning the "hour-long" Dollhouse episodes will be ~50 minutes as opposed to ~42-44 (which, why in the world do we consider these shows "hour-long" when they're barely 3/4 of an hour??). ALDKHFALHSALKDFH!!!! I'm of two minds about this. For one thing, longer episodes = more excellence. But on the other hand, longer episodes = more expensive to shoot, write for, etc. etc. And with less commercials showing, that drives the cost up more. So, if the idiots people at FOX see the costs of Dollhouse, they might think it's too expensive and (worst case scenario) cancel it. Especially since I don't think American companies are as well-informed about how these things work (except maybe the people for the show 24, who are also FOX, which might make my worries completely unfounded).

Just let Dollhouse work. Please. Or else I might have to boycott FOX's new shows forever and ever because I know they'll just end up breaking my heart. Yes, I'm still bitter about Firefly and Tru Calling. Ironically, Joss created Firefly and Eliza Dushku starred in Tru Calling, and yet both came back to FOX for a show. Maybe they can pool their good luck and it'll come out on top.

FOX has made me sort of excited for the upcoming TV season. There's Dollhouse, and then there are 2 new shows which I'm sort of interested in giving a go. Courtroom K and Lie to Me, the former of which sounds kinda like House in a courtroom, and the latter is a new crime drama. I just finished saying I didn't want to get too attached to any new FOX shows, but I couldn't help it. They just caught my attention.

Speaking of House and the '09 season....I can't believe they moved House to 8PM Wednesdays!!! What is up with that??? Arrgh. And then they seemed to have moved Bones to a different night, and while I don't watch the show I have read the opinion that those 2 (for some reason or another) shouldn't be split up. Those people will have a field day, I know.

Message to FOX: If you just have to cancel a show, cancel some of those stupid comedies and/or that really weird reality show where millionaires pretend to be poor people and accomplish their one act of kindness by giving money away. None of those shows sound very interesting at all.

The administration at UW apparently favor the freshman to a crazy level. I realize the people who organize Dawg Daze and this weird resident-thank-you-BBQ are completely different people, but...seriously? Giving the prizes to only the freshman-centric dorm (plus the upperclass residents who live down south)? Not cool. Is dividing the prizes between North and South dorms too hard? Or even just collecting all the cards and doing the raffling overnight? Or picking a more central-location? Oh well. I didn't see a PS3 anywhere on the little card thing that listed sample prizes, and I'm pretty sure that would've ranked at the top with the Wii and a bike. Soo..not really bothering.

At the BBQ, though, I had sat down with my food when a guy sat in the booth in front of me. He played a sound clip somehow (cell phone? I'm not sure) and, like the geek that I am, I knew what it was. Final Fantasy VII Fanfare!!! *dances in time with the trumpets/whatever the instruments are* ...Yes, sadly, I did deduce which Final Fantasy it was, though I might still be wrong--I haven't heard the music for I-VI. But I'm 95% sure it's VII. Hee.

Nothing much beyond my television rant/countdown. Well...and that Club crackers are terrifyingly (and it's hard to believe "terrifyingly" is an actual word) addicting. And Nobuo Uematsu is a genius.

So, yeah, er...here comes my inner English!geekness. I saw these icons and, well, yeah, needed to have them.

First one I got:


Essentially sums up every single pet peeve I have whenever I read fanfiction or, *facepalm* peers' papers or *facepalm harder* published works (i.e. newspapers, magazines, etc.).

And saw this one today:


Sadly....this is pretty much my rule of thumb when I write papers and I don't want to sound entirely stupid (whether or not using these phrases makes me sound even more stupid is up for debate). Is it sad that I laughed and thoroughly enjoyed these grammar icons? Probably.

So, here endeth my icon!squee.

I'm loving my Chaucer class, even though it's throwing me for a loop. I'm used to the teachers demanding that students speak up, that if we don't participate 'you don't get participation points, which is ZOMG bad for your grade!!1!1!1111!!' But Remley, he just kinda sits on the desk (I think it may have something to do with the fact that the chair's too low for him) and rambles on about the mechanisms of Med. Lit and about Chaucer's sources and parodies, etc. etc., and if there's ever a hand raised he lets them speak up when he pauses to take a breath. It's a new method of teaching an English class for me. I like it, since it doesn't penalize me for being a quiet person in class and for not being able to say my point before someone else does. And in spite of the fact that The Canterbury Tales is technically a poem, I love reading it. So, all's good in my English class as it should be. *waves a banner happily*

I got my pasaporte, huzzah. And..well, I opened it and saw the picture used for my identification.....*winces* I think I kinda forgot about how bad it was, and it was a huge shock to my system to be reminded. People at the airport are gonna look at it, look at me, and tell me that I'm a horrible person for stealing somebody else's passport, I'm sure. Or make some comment to the effect that I've changed quite a bit. At least in my driver's license the blonde is a lot more hidden; I don't even remember when the picture was taken.

I'm finding myself getting drawn back to Darkwing Duck, which is bad because...well, that makes one too many shows for me to be watching. True, DW--er, DWD is over (sadness) but there's still 91 half-hour episodes for me to watch (minus the....6-7 episodes I've seen now), on top of Torchwood (though I am 1 episode away from being caught up) as well as Life on Mars (5 episodes from finishing) and Doctor Who (3 more days before another episode, YAY!!!!!), and soon House will be back on (Monday 21st) AND I'm still doing the 50 Books in a year thing, and am still stuck at trying to finish #6 (which I think is going to switch from The Secret Agent to The Canterbury Tales [Beidler Ed.]). *headdesk* I'm not even going to touch on what I need to do for school/Rome.

I need to make a trip down to B&N sometime this week (probably tomorrow) to finally pick up the last of my Chaucer textbooks, and also to pick up Metamorphoses by Ovid for Rome, and then hopefully I'll be done with books and such! I love books, I do, but having to constantly go out and come back only to go back out again and repeat the process practically 6 times makes me a little weary. Of course, in addition to the Ovid Rome is requiring another book which is out of print! Why can't they pick a different book which isn't out of print which may still cover the same material is beyond me. The email the program director sent to us didn't say explicitly we needed to buy the books, just read them, so....maybe I can just check it out from the library and read it and do it that way, yes/yes? I'll ask him at the info session at the end of the month, and hopefully he'll be agreeable. If not....to Amazon.com/Barnes&Noble.com I go.

Which leads me to another point (sorry, sorry, I know my entries tend to ramble on): Why in pluperfect heck isn't this info session earlier?!?! As in, before the visa application is due??? It doesn't make sense to me why things are running late. Like the deposit? The application says the charge would show up a week after you send confirmation and you need to pay it then. That didn't happen. He later says in an email sent on the 4th, "but it is all straightened out and your deposit amounts should appear very soon". Um....no. Still nothing yet. *headdesk* He's done this at least once before, if not more than that....I'm not entirely certain why this year seems more behind. Did he do this last year, too? It doesn't seem likely to me, but....oh well. What happens happens.

I need to get out more, out to Seattle-proper and such. I'm thinking of a trip to Pike Place this weekend (not interrupting DW, of course!), simply so I can get out and about, but we'll see what happens. I tend to make plans and promise whole-heartedly that I will make good on them, but then it rolls around and I'm too lazy to get out. Maybe I need to drag Kathryn and Nikki and Freddie into it or something, who knows.

Col. O'Neill: I do appreciate that you were the one to come and see if I was okay. That... that means something.
Dr. Jackson: Ah... actually, no, it doesn't.

Dr. Jackson: Um... we, ah, we drew straws. I lost. --Stargate SG-1, Shades of Grey

8 Days Until I'm 21. Still don't think I'm going to do a 21 run. If I do, I'll be bringing Kathryn or my other friends on the floor who wants something to drink to the QFC midnight the 15th and ask them what they like and I'll buy that for them to consume. If too many people try and get in on the action, they'll need to provide their own cash.

So, for my weather class, there's homework involved. Sometimes I have difficulty in completing it, if only because I don't always put 100% of my brain to it. But I don't really need to go out of my way to compare answers with others. But there's a girl in my quiz section who randomly accosted me one day and asked to do so, and we did, and it was kinda okay that one time because it was 5 minutes before it was due. Then she asked if we could make a regular thing of it, and I agreed because I didn't really mind the idea.

She wanted to meet at 8:00AM Tuesday. I cringed inwardly, but I said sure. My mistake. Because her alarm didn't go off and she completely missed our meeting. I understand, and I don't blame her, but...I got 5 hours of sleep when I could've gotten 7. Wasn't terribly thrilled.

Then she wanted to take a look at my notes because she missed a day. Again, I don't mind because she's not trying to use them to cheat or something. She said she'd meet me a few minutes before class today, so she could finish copying my notes.

She didn't come. Instead, she texted me: "I will c u in class i need 2 eat. I am so hungry." This was about 3 minutes before class started. I don't entirely understand why she A) couldn't get up earlier in order to eat, B) bring her food to class to eat, or C) why she felt it necessary to include the last sentence; it felt a bit like she's looking for attention from me.

I ran into her after class (11:20), where she was just standing around outside. She said she'd gotten there at 10:50 (class starts at 10:30) but she hadn't wanted to go inside because she was late, and she would have just felt so bad about it. Never mind the fact that people come in late all the time, and it's a lecture class, so you blend in with the crowd after you settle in. But she was so.....I don't know if it's her way of making friends with people, but to me she just comes across as really whiny and needy and attention-seeking.

I'm sure she's a nice girl. But, for a 5th year senior majoring in Math who's engaged to be married to a guy in law school who has a business in San Diego whom she's had a long-distance relationship with for 3 years (I met this girl maybe a week ago and already I know all this.......) she feels really....not immature, but she has a quality that doesn't feel very adult to me. It's kinda hard to explain what it is about her that rubs me the wrong way. I guess I sorta just want to be able to tell her "Take a step back....we're not BFFs from kindergarten. Stop with the mother-henning."

Maybe that's what it is. She has that really bothersome mother-hen trait. Not even the "Oh, hey, you want me to buy you some chicken soup?" kind of mother-hen, but the "Oh my god you rubbed your eyes let me call the ambulance for you!" kind of mother-hen.

Okay. Wow. Totally didn't mean to use 7 paragraphs describing one little instance of disgruntlement with one random person in my life. I barely use even a paragraph for the LaRouche people who plague the campus on a daily basis.

Going to go see the Vagina Monologues tonight, even though I don't really think it's my thing. I'm all for women having equality and being comfortable with their sexuality and having the liberty of freedom, but I'm more of a passive-type. But it'll be a fun night with a bunch of other girls, and then afterwards we'll probably go get ice cream. So, really, it's just a girl's night out.


I randomly decided last night to do memes. I particularly wanted an icon meme, because I wanted to show off the pretties other people have made (since GJ completely deleted all icons in its slow sinking death). Sooooooo......this entry is LOTS OF MEMES and no purpose.

WARNING! There's an Icon Meme down below. This Entry = Icon Meme, Icon meme = Images, and if your Internet connection = DSL, This Entry = DEATH for you.

Dr. Wilson: C'est la vie, and I use the French because you're an ass.

House: (to Wilson, both holding cocktails) Wait a second. This isn't just about the sex. You like her personality. You like that she's conniving. You like that she has no regard for consequences. You like that she can humiliate someone if it serves... oh my god. You're sleeping with me.

It's raining/snowing down in Olympia at the moment.

Focus on the second part of "raining/snowing."

Seriously. Every time I come home for the holidays or weekend or what-have-you and leave for Seattle, IT SNOWS!! It couldn't snow whenever I'm around, oh no, it has to wait until I leave 'cause it's just not nearly as funny if I stayed.

Yeah, those who don't pay attention to the universe that is Doctor Who where in the world are you?? won't be entirely moved by that piece. But you should be. Because ROSE IS COMING BAAAACK!!!! It's almost as good as J.K. Rowling informing the world that she's going to write an eighth Harry Potter book where Snape and Dumbledore and Moody and Fred and Dobby and Hedgewig and everybody else she murdered killed off are brought back to life (and Ron jumped off a cliff, 'cause Hermione's too good for him). Except, y'know.....THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SQUEEEEEE!!!!!

(for the sake of my flist who don't pay attention to DW, I'll stop now and save the rest of my fangirling for my other friend's lj.)

Look at the comic-square at the right of this page. This is EXACTLY What Happened to me. I came back on Sunday and all of a sudden my classes birthed homework due this week left, right, center, top, bottom, corners, and every other surface known to only The Doctor!!! And, of course, I'm not doing my homework now when I should be......but that's a technicality.

I think House has become my prime show of the regular TV season. I just love me my snarkiness (and Hugh Laurie is an even better reason to watch it, even minus his wonderful British accent, though his American one is just as squeeful). Sadly, though, my interest in Grey's is waning. I get that Grey's is more focused on the relationships of the doctors, and I don't mind that at all, but they fired my one ship of the show (BANG, or Burke/Yang), they won't give me the lowdown on the one character I actually love to bits (Alex), they had all this drama about George and Izzie getting together because of one night of heavenly sex and breaking Callie's heart and now (from what I've gleaned from the last episode I watched, which is about 2 weeks ago) they're breaking up 'cause the sex is bad, and they just won't cool it with the whole Meredith-Derek thing! It's just not satisfying to watch anymore. *is sad*

There's this thing called NaBloPoMo, which is kind of a wimpier version of the NaNoWriMo. You post one blog a day throughout the month of November. I think I'll be doing this next year, since, y'know...November's two days away from ending this year.....

I coulda/woulda/shoulda saved this for my "first day" entry coming up in a few days...But by then I wouldn't have any homework to procrastinate on. Meh.

Now I'm gonna go watch America's Next Top Model and eat Chocolate Peanut Butter ice cream. Should I be doing the latter (or either, really)? No, but really, it's kind of like what bears do right before hibernation....I'll just consider the ice cream as "insulation" for the Washington winter.

Speaking of which.....enough of the freaky sunny weather we've been having the last few days!!! It puts our rainy July to shame! Let's keep this dreary rain, this is normal and I'm okay with normal.

Taub: (uncovers rabbit cage) Aha! Tularemia.
Kutner: (not looking) Nah, you'd have to have rabbits.

J.K. Reveals Another Secret to HP

Let the fanfiction writers' egos go boom. One of their obsessions speculations actually were right.

Though, really, are any of us that surprised?

Washington's weather is doing its damnedest to topple over the Space Needle or something. Apparently there were 40 mph winds on Thursday, and Friday there was sleet/incessant rain/winds. *snuggles into blankets*

I'm actually planning on going to the IMA tomorrow (since McMahon's workout room is closed Saturdays) and do some running/weight lifting. I've even burned a CD of music to keep me distracted from the inevitable pain people watching. We'll see if I survive (whether I mean the workout or the freaky weather is to be determined).

I changed over to IE7. Kinda weird. I miss having my big buttons at the top of my screen.

Dr. Cuddy: Twenty-six-year-old female, she was pulled out of the rubble after six hours. Two surgeries for multiple fractures and burns.
House: I'm thinking the broken bones are a response to the building falling on her head.

House: Give it back.
Dr. Wilson: What happened? Did someone... kidnap your guitar? Your twelve-thousand-dollar 1967 Flying V? Or something?
House: Where'd you hide it?
Dr. Wilson: I'm flattered you would consider me this bold and brilliant.
House: Yeah, it takes a cri... (stops, seeing pieces missing from Dr. Wilson's newspaper which plainly made up the ransom note from earlier) It takes a criminal mastermind to pull off a heist from an unlocked, unguarded room down the hall. What do you want?
Dr. Wilson: Me? Nothing. But I'm sure the kidnapper wants what every kidnapper wants. To see you interview five to seven well-qualified fellowship candidates.
House: I don't need a team.
Dr. Wilson: You were bouncing ideas off a janitor.
House: And solved the case!
.........
House: Did you ever see Raid on Entebbe?
Dr. Wilson: Yeah, in the end they released the hostages. How's that working for you?
House: The Ugandans played fair. They didn't move the hostages on the Israelis.
Dr. Wilson: Once again, I am in awe of the kidnapper's tactical brilliance.
House: (switches on Dr. Wilson's TiVo) What is "El Fuego Del Amor" and why do you need ten of them?
Dr. Wilson: It's a... it's a Telenovela. I'm learning Spanish.
House: Well, say adios.
Dr. Wilson: Are you erasing my Tivo? House! Not the season finale!
House: Say Adios! I don't negotiate with terrorists. I smoke them out of their hidey-holes.
Dr. Wilson: Do you know what terrorists do when you don't negotiate? They terrorize.
House: Bring it on! --House, M.D., Alone

Instead of doing my New Testament hw last night, I went ahead and played Killer Bunnies con Vanessa and Sam for about 2 hours then went straight to bed thereafter. Attended my New Testament lecture class, spent an hour of my 2 hour break doing that homework (which was actually much easier than it looked last night), ate breakfast, then went to the quiz section for the class to turn it in. And....there is a window in the whiteboard of the class that looks into the next door's classroom.

....Architects/designers are weird.....

I almost fell asleep in my Eastern Religions class because we spent most of the class watching a video of Indian Hindus performing their very last sacrifice ritual, which meant most of the sound was them chanting loudly and nonsensically. I didn't feel too bad about it though; there was a participant in the ritual on the video who fell asleep, too. Kinda funny.

I applied for housing today, so I hope I get an early registration period for choosing which house & room I'm placed in next year. As long as I get into Hansee I'll be happy, though having a room larger than a closet wouldn't be something to sneeze at.... I'll need to see if my RA will give me a tour of the place before I pick the room. I highly doubt the residents will have their doors open so I can see which rooms are big and small, but at least I can look at each of the four wings to see which appeals to me. I want desperately to stay on the ground/lobby-level so I can avoid the elevator/stairs, but again getting into Hansee is the biggest issue.

Dr. House: You bastard. You invited my parents to dinner.
Dr. Wilson: Geez, Cameron's got a big mouth.
Dr. House: Ha! Not as big as yours.
Dr. Wilson: Hey, you used me to avoid seeing your parents.
Dr. House: Well, what do you care?
Dr. Wilson: I don't. I just thought it might be interesting to find out why.
Dr. House: You could have just asked.
Dr. Wilson: You would have lied.
Dr. House: And you would have believed me. Which would have kept us both happy. Do you want your money back, is that what this is about?
Dr. Wilson: No! Wait, what? Have you got the money?
[House starts to write check]
Dr. Wilson: If you have the money, then why did you need the loan?
Dr. House: I didn't. I just wanted to see if you'd give it to me. I've been borrowing increasing amounts ever since you lent me forty dollars a year ago. A little experiment to see where you'd draw the line.
Dr. Wilson: You're - you're trying to objectively measure how much I value our friendship?
Dr. House: That's five grand, you've got nothing to be ashamed of. So what do you say, one little phone call, one big check?
Dr. Wilson: Fine.
[takes check]
Dr. Wilson: Thanks.
[gets in car]
Dr. Wilson: Now, be a grownup and either tell mommy and daddy you don't want to see them or I'm picking you up at 7:00 for dinner.
Dr. House: What do you mean? You just said...
Dr. Wilson: I lied. I've been lying to you in increasing amounts ever since I told you you look good unshaved a year ago. It's a little experiment, you know, to see where you'd draw the line. --House, M.D.

Another round of taking quizzes, cause I'm bored.

( Ignore me, I don't take you anywhere )

Dr. House: You have a parasite.
Jill: Like a tapeworm or something?...Can you do anything about it?
Dr. House: Only for about a month or so. After that it becomes illegal to remove, except in a couple of states.
Jill: Illegal?
Dr. House: Don't worry. Many women learn to embrace this parasite. They name it, dress it up in tiny clothes, arrange playdates with other parasites... (he shows her the ultrasound) It has your eyes.

[To Newsweek reporter]
Dr. House: In my opinion, Dr. Sebastian Charles is an idiot! Yeah, you can quote me... C-U-D-D-Y.

Dr. Cuddy: You lied to them!
Mrs. Park: He told us our son was dead.
Dr. House: It’s only a white lie. Technically, all I did was call them a little early. Trust me, he’ll be dead real soon. Actually, I saved you some rush hour traffic.

[Dr. Wilson is examining Dr. House's leg with the MRI]
Dr. Wilson: House, this is God.
Dr. House: Look, I'm a little busy right now. Not supposed to talk during these things. Got time Thursday?
Dr. Wilson: Let me check. Oh! I got a plague. What about Friday?
Dr. House: You'll have to check with Cameron.
Dr. Wilson: Oh! Damn it! She always wants to know why bad things happen. Like I'm gonna come up with a new answer this time.
[Cuddy bursts in]

Dr. Cuddy: Are you sitting on evidence that your patient was sexually abused by her father?
