This journal went friends only on the 17th of March 2007. Most entries are locked except for my graphic posts and some random posts.
But this doesn't mean I'm not looking for new friends. If you want to be added or add me, just leave a comment here about yourself and why you want to friend me, if we share some fandoms or if we seem to have some stuff in common, I will more than likely friend you back.
Check my profile to learn more about me, future friend and see you soon!

My graphic journal: tellelaprairie

Think about the year that has passed. All the memories, the entries and posts that made the year special. Think about all your past layouts, default icons, mood themes. How about all those conversations you had via comments, or the huge post in ONTD that you spent all night commenting on. The 2008 Scrapbook Post is a way to help you remember all of that, in a single post.
I felt that the big book/movie/tv/event post wasn't enough for this year and then telltale had a brilliant idea and I'm following it. Join 2008_scrapbook!!

OMFG. I'VE JUST WATCHED DOCTOR WHO "THE STOLEN EARTH". I CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE IT. WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED?

I wasn't spoiled or anything so...HOLY SHIT, IS IT TRUE? I'd love to read your reactions guys so if you wanna post the link your post in the comments, please do.

I'm honestly more stressed about the last episode than I am about tomorrow's bac results xD

Holy crap! Ingrid Bétancourt and other hostages are freed by the Colombian military!! I just cannot believe it! More than 6 years and Bétancourt is finally liberated! And apparently, she's healthy. This is certainly the best news of 2008. This is so amazing, I hope everything will be alright. I can't imagine the joy of her family <3

Joss Whedon blogs about Dr Horrible.
It's awesome and everything and I forgot how much I loved this guy but one thing made me curse at the crual universe:

Dr.
Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog" will be streamed, LIVE (that part’s not true), FREE (sadly, that part is) right on Drhorrible. com, in mid-July.

Specifically:
ACT ONE (Wheee!) will go up Tuesday July 15th.

ACT TWO (OMG!) will go up Thursday July 17th.

ACT THREE (Denouement!) will go up Saturday July 19th.

All acts will stay up until midnight Sunday July 20th

That totally means that I won't be able to see it because at that time, I would be sitting on a beach in Southern France. Which is great but unfortunately, computer-free. And I'll have to wait until they make it available for download (not free and I'd hate to pirate Joss Whedon) or on dvd (not until forever) :(

DAMN YOU, UNIVERSE!
But seriously, how awesome does "Show Friends" sound? <3

omg. The bac starts tomorrow. The real one. The one that will leave me friday completely exhausted and the one that will decide if I have to stay one more year in high school or if I can become a proper student and start living. Wish me luck everyone, tomorrow is philosophy.

Rules: When you see this meme immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop. It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun.

1. Go to your desktop and press the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key).
2. Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and doing a Paste (CTRL + V).
3. Post the picture on your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop if you want. You can explain why you prefer such a look or why it is full of icons. Things like that.



Wallpaper is the Sandman, a comic series by Neil Gaiman that I just adore. My desktop isn't too cluttered which is quite unnusual :)

OMFG at Euro 2008.

Netherlands vs France.

We're losing 4-1.

It's quite hilarious, isn't it? xD

If I could be cast on any tv show, I'd be playing a villain on Doctor Who. I'd be a disgusting looking alien, coming from a planet far away from Earth where the traditional beverage is alcohol made from human brains so I'd try to invade Earth to become rich and rule the economy of my home planet. But the Doctor wouldn't let me kill all the amazing human beings and I'd try to take Donna's brain because it'dseem so tasty. After managing to save her from beheading thanks to his sonic screwdriver, the Doctor would beg me to redeem myself because he'd know there's a nice and friendly alien behind the squishy face. I'd say I'm sorry and oh god I had no idea humans were so great and every life is sacred but actually I'd be plotting a dark revenge and I'd try to kill the Doctor using one my tentacle and a tv but Donna would save his ass using only a hair dryer because she's awesome like that. I'd die screaming "damn you doctooooooooooooor" and the news of my death would create a great terror on my planet and my fellow aliens would promise never to drink alcohol made from human brains because it really isn't worth it and the hangovers are horrible anyway.

Can't you tell I'm exhausted? xD
My day was pretty intense, I had yet another oral. A french one this time, about the role of Astronomy and stars in the book "The Leopard" by Lampedusa. I had to talk for 45 minutes in front of people who didn't really care about what I was saying and obviously didn't understand everything I said about a man trying to escape a trivial world and a decadent aristocracy for an abstract and ethereal world governed by ideas and ruled by Venus who is in fact Death. Did I even understand it myself?

By the way, I watched the season finale of House yesterday. It was great! Pretty intense and very sad :( I wish the fourth season had been more like this instead of being a sort of pompous and annoying succession of uninteresting and uneventful episodes.

Hope you had a great day guys. And look! I've got a Spike icon, how cool is that? :D
