1.When you see this, post another Buffy quote in your LJ. Let's see how long this can go on.

"She wouldn't even kill me. She just left. She didn't even care enough to cut off my head, or set me on fire. I mean, is that too much to ask? You know? Some little sign that she cared? It was the truce with Buffy that did it. Dru said I'd gone soft - wasn't demon enough for the likes of her"

Aww, Buffy <3 I watched the 7 seasons last summer but I wouldn't mind rewatching them all. Especially when we won't get the last episode of Dollhouse (which is kinda good but I doubt I'll be religiously rewatching it in a few years)

2.Easter break! Three long, beautiful days to do nothing, just lie around, watch tv and eat a lot of chocolate. This week was pretty alright, although our English teacher went bananas this afternoon for some reason. I dunno why really, he didn't appreciate our lack of reaction at his questions (friday afternoon, dude, you can't expect much) so he started to shout and some other students shouted back at him and he looked very glad of it. I think he's the kind of teacher to really love confrontation, you know? Having arguments not related to the class with students :/ If he likes that, he shouldn't be a prépa teacher but a middle school teacher :/
I also learnt this week that a goth girl in the class just above me (I'm in HK, she's in KH, yeah, it's complicated) wrote a book when she was 17 years old. I didn't check it out but a friend took a look because it's in the school library and it's apparently hilarious, about an angel who wants to kill herself or something. Brilliant <3

3.ANYWAY!
*I'm currently downloading the first episode of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, can't wait to watch it because I just loooooove the first series (and the manga) and I hope it'll be good :D
*this picture makes me ridiculously happy: thom yorke is a fan of himself <3
* trailer for Moon. It's a movie made by Duncan Jones aka David Bowie's son (his real name is Zowie Bowie btw, which is just too awesome xD) and starring Sam Rockwell, aka sexy bitch. It's a sci-fi movie that looks all kind of amazing and everyone in Sundance jizzed their pants when seeing it. Can't wait!

If you could be cast on any TV show, from any time, who would you play?

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

1. So I went to Paris yesterday and it rained for half the time I was there... I bought some books half the price that I usually have to pay here (yay Gilbert Jeune and your second hand books!). Then we went to an amazing exhibition at the Louvre about Babylon and we had a walk in Paris. And in the Tuileries Garden we totally ran into Edouard Bear aka one of the few french actor that I like, didn't recognize him since he was walking alone and nobody was looking at him but my mother confirmed that it was him. How awesome is that? :)

2. Top 5 me! Books, art, culture, music, fandom stuff, movies, television, pictures you want me to take, ANYTHING. Ask as many as you'd like. Be vague. Be specific. I don't care if it's mundane or off the wall, although the latter might be more fun.

Where I live (Northen France) is currently extremely well-known and appreciated thanks to (because of?) the french movie Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis and it's actually quite hilarious to see the rest of France discovering (even if the movie is full of clichés) the area I live in. And it's a great area really, you're not far from anything, 2 hours away from Paris, 2 hours away from Belgium, the Channel tunnel must be 2 hours away too. And even if the weather is shit, most people here are great. But when they're not great, they're really awful xD
