So, we walked around for a half hour, then went to the parking building. Or well, we wandered around for 15 minutes or so first, trying to find it. We don't know that city very well, so it took us some time before we got back.
At least we had some fun just talking. Neither of us can do the Spock greeting thing, but her parents can. Not sure about mine, gonna ask them later. Anyways, I did it with three fingers and one instead, and told her I'd do it that way instead *laughs* It's our very own version of the Spock greeting thing.
Her yearbook has finally arrived, I found out, so we're gonna meet someday next week and go through it. She already has, of course, but I haven't.
My arm is better, too. Got the vaccine on Wednesday, arm started to hurt in the evening, and continued to do so the next two days. And the pain made me feel sick, so I haven't been eating much the last couple of days. But I'm better now, and actually in the mood for some chips. Yay!
Now I'm going to waste those last GB's of mine, by watching lots of youtube vids (as in fanvids and Californication s3. And maybe some anime. And, er, listen to music. Yep.), until the bandwidth starts being slow. At which point I'll just continue watch vids, but it'll take longer. And on Tuesday I'll get the speed restored ^^ And on Thursday it's the last ep of Heroes before the hiatus. Eep, can't wait! xD

Because I've had other things to do today, I didn't have time to re-watch and write the review during it. Oh well. I'll do my best and write what I remember.

Fandoms: Buffy/Heroes
Characters/pairings: Buffy, Spike, Xander, Willow, Fiona, (OC), Claire/Gretchen, mention of Tara. Brief appearance of Aria and Mosy, also OC.
Summary: Buffy is out patrolling, unwillingly accompanied by Spike, as she sees two women being attacked bya group of vampires. One of the women gets taken.
Word count: 6294
Disclaimer: I don't own Buffy or Heroes, or the characters. Except for the OC ones. Those are mine. Hah!
Notes: Okay, so, I haven't written anything this long in about two years. And since English isn't my main language, I'm not that great at describing fight scenes, and I don't know that many synonyms. I'm much better in my own language (not saying I'm great - just better). However, I hope it's still readable. But appologies in advance for any possible grammer errors, spelling mistakes, and repetativeness. No beta.
Oh, and yes, the main reason I chose Heroes as the crossover is Claire and Gretchen, and the possibility of changing Gretchen a bit *wiggles eyebrows*

Hopefully, we can do lots of things. I'd love to sort of re-connect with them all. And I also really want to go out and meet people. College is still six or seven months away, should I decide to go (I'll take that another day, not in the mood to talk about it now), and I don't want to wait that long. Plus, going out, partying *rolls eyes - me, yeah right -pfft-*, and having fun, maybe I'll meet someone. Not everyone can be total jackasses, I'm sure there are some nice people. *nods* Yep.
Also, on a funnier note, I completely screwed up yesterday. Not a major thing, I just said something and my parents laughed for a good five or ten minutes.
So, I was going through a clothes catalogue to see what I wanted. And then I had to narrow it down, or we'd be broke by now. It takes time, I tell you. So many pretty things. But, at least I will now get a pretty dress that's very Blair Waldorf (or Veronica Mars, depending on how you wear it and with what shoes and accessories), a longsleeved top to go under it, a jeansjacket a la college!Claire, a grey V.Mars jacket, bed stuff, and some other stuff. I was pondering if I should buy a pair of boots to go with the dress (and that would look so good with a pair of my jeans), and a pair of pumps that were very cute and a little Waldorf-y (and I only have one pair - plus, the heal is low and 'sturdy'), but I decided not too. Even on sale, the boots were a little expensive (the jeansjacket'll have to do), and the pumps seemed unnecessary. But there'll be more times 'smiles bravely* Mom said to get whatever I wanted, just write it down and she'd call the order in, but I feel so horrible to get all those expensive things when I don't have a job yet.
Oh right, the laughing thing. Yeah, so the boots were troubling me. It said the´there was a zipper on the inside. And I took it literally, but of course it was just the outside inside. You know what I mean. But I thought it was located on the actual inside. And that would have made it a bit heard to get them on and off. And I told mom and dad this. They laughed really hard for a long while, my mom actually slamming her hand down on the table and shaking her head without being able to speak. Then, after they had settled somewhat and was going out to get some air and feed the cats, dad couldn't help but of course make one final joke. About the jeansjacket, saying he hoped they didn't have the buttons on the inside. Hardi-har-har, dad. But, it was actually really amusing. Maybe I have a future in 'accidental stand-up comedy'. But, to my defence, I was tired, and my back hurt after sitting in a bad position as I went through the catalogue.
Oh, and the jobapplication for ICA, I sent it in but today got a 'status delivery fail' notification. I didn't write the email address wrong, so the people putting the ad out must have. Typico. And the due date is, well, due. Two days ago. Crap. I guess I'll just have to keep looking.
Back to Blair Waldorf, since I mentioned her. The last ep of Gossip Girl was really good, and even gave me some Vanessa/Georgina slashiness. Fuel to the fire and all that. Gonna go see if I can find any fics later. Anyway, there was this one scene, were Blair glared at someone from behind Chuck, then turned on her heal and glided away with her nose in the air. I've heard that expression in books many times, I've seen it in cartoons and drawings, but I've never actually seen it played out by a live person. Leave it to miss Blair Waldorf to make it a reality! Just another reason why she's my favorite. A manipulative drama queen. Bitchy and childish. And I adore her, and every minute she's on screen. :D
Right, now, that has to be enough chit-chat from me today. I'm going home for a couple of days, partly because I'm bored here all on my own, and partly because I need to stay away from the computer, or my bandwidth will surely be slow before Thursday. And I want to watch Heroes! I refuse to wait two whole weeks before I can. Uh-uh, no way.
So... au revoir.

Also, I watched Little Shop of Horrors this morning, and I saw some similarities with Doctor Horrible. Rather amusing, actually. The biggest thing was of coirse Orin, that was a bit like Captain Hammer, with the mannerisms and behaviour (although, Orin was more towards the abusing direction, rather than self absorbed. Although, in a way, he was that too. Mean nevertheless.) And then there's Samuel who's secretly (...) crushing on Audrey, who is dating Orin, and well... it's a more than I have time to write now. Or what I mean is, I'd write more about it, but I'm very hungry and have to go and make dinner. It was a fun movie though, and Ellen Greene was great, and the plant was too fun and cute *laughs*
Plus, there are a few scenes in the first season two, subtexty and metaphorical as heck.
I'm playing "Girlfriend" by Avril Lavigne over and over right now (watching a youtube video, Liley, never mind), and I played it while watching that first 2x11 scene muted, and it was hysterical. So much fun! I love muting the TV and putting on random music and see how it fits - or not fits. But it's usually fun. Like doing it with various youtube videos too. To the trailer for Drag Me To Hell I played "In The Mood" by Greg Miller, and it instantly got less creepy (almost not at all, actually) and instead kind of funny. Heh.
In other news, I have a stupid virus on my computer. It's like a fake security program, that keeps blocking pages that have been on countless number of times and that's never been a danger before. Harmless ones, like hotmail, XOC, livejournal, Deviantart, youtube, etc. It keeps popping up when I'm not online aswell, asking if I want to block a virusattack. When I press 'yes' a box comes up that says I have to activate the key first. Useless! I pressed 'no once, and then it flipped out, magnifying the screen so everything got ginormeous proprtions, then turned blue with white text that said some stuff I don't remember. I don't press 'no' anymore, that's for sure.
But I get help tonight, a friend of mom and dad's that's had the same trouble is coming here to try and fix it. I just hope it's actually the same problem, so that they don't just think it is, and that he can fix it. It's annoying me so much, and I want my healthy computer back!

Yet again a good episode. Which I didn't expect to like that much, because it'd be pretty much Hiro centric, and as much as I like him, I just... Sometimes it can be too much. But not this time.
( Review here )
I think that was about it this episode. Huh. I thought I'd write more. But oh well. I guess it really is Claire and Gretchen that makes me write a lot *grins* Not that the rest is bad, just... priorities and favorisation.

Apparently I can't help myself. I just love to do these reviews. But since I've already seen season 2 once, even if it was a while ago and lots have escaped my mind, I'll keep it short and simple. Or at least shorter and simpler than the season 4 reviews.

So. I didn't get the job. No surprise really, since I knew I wasn't as qualified as probably most of the other applicants were. I still hoped for it, but oh well.
I guess I'll have to apply for the job at ICA, where my mom works then. I know I won't like it, but I don't have much of a choice.
I got Heroes s2 yesterday, and have watched the first episode. I'm not going to do this every time (I think), but I'm bored, so I'm gonna write a little mini review/comment thingy.
( Heroes 2x01 thoughts and comments and so on )
Other than that, not much has happened. Other than that I found out my friend has finally gotten the date to when she leaves for the au pair work in USA. Next year, Jan 4th. It's not long. I'm happy for her, but I'll miss her. I know we haven't seen each other that much in a long time, but it doesn't mean I won't miss her. I'm actually pondering if I should talk to the others and plan a goodbye party for her. Since she'll miss both my maybe-20th birthday party, and the huge Halloween party I'm planning to have next year, it'd be fun to have something where we're all together before she leaves.
The parents are coming to visit any second, so I'll have to say goodbye.
And adieu.
And, of course, au revoir *mmmwah*

Wow. Lot happening in this episode. And easy to keep track of too, since it was basically only three stories told this time. I'll just go through Matt/Sylar and Tracy/Noah first, and then focus more on Gretchen/Claire (because it's my favorite story).

I found an ever cheaper tablet, that will be delivered faster, so that one will be bought as soon as possible. Also found a microphone that can probably be useful sometime, also very cheap. May or may not buy that though, as it's not a necessity. But it's good to know where it can be bought.
Then I was going to check when the job I applied for had it's due date, and stumbled upon another available job, an ad posted th day before yesterday. They were searching for a clerk to. And the place just happens to be ICA, where my mom works. Coincidence's, coincidence's. Funny how it is sometimes.

I found one last week aswell, but someone else got it before I had time to call. This time I'm faster. The ad came in yesterday, and I e-mailed five minutes ago, saying I'll call once I get hold of a phone. Rrrrr, I have to have it!
And then, once that is fixed, I have my eye on a very cheap tablet. It's not that big, it's something like 10x14cm big, but it's perfect. And then, once I have both scanner and a tablet, I can outline my pictures and draw them better than now. Because now the arrow just makes wobbly lines that looks riddiculous, and most of the times it just escapes and flutters away up to the corner of the screen, making sure the lines are more than just wobbly.
Let's hope I have some luck this time, it'd be nice for a change.

I got about four hours sleep tonight. I've been half asleep all day long. Lady was a good dog though, she just rested all the time I was dogsitting her. Apart from the occasional walk from one resting place to another, during which she managed to bump into the door frame with her plastic neck thingy. Poor thing.
Just finished watching Terminator: TSCC. It was good, but a bit confusing. It was the dream episode, and the outcome did surprise me. The funnest part of it all though, was when John was on the phone with Sarah, and Cameron suddenly casually walked by, only wearing panties and a bra. The look on John's face was made of win, really. It wasn't a "what the f**k?" face either, more like a "what th...oh, my, god" followed by a mental whistling. Plus, he did that almost unoticable headshake before continuing the conversation with his mom. I am frantically trying to find that clip now, because well... it can be seen over and over *laughs* Also, a few little glances from Cameron too, and the way she had to stand so close some times. At one point when John had said something to Sarah and then walked past her she had this superior look on her face, like "ha ha, in your face". I love those small things. And I love how they can be interpreted differently too.
Chatted to a friend today, briefly, at the store. It was fun. Going to make sure we have time to spend some more time together soon. Friends does not, after all, grow on trees.
I drew more today. Kill Bill!Tracy looks kind of bad ass, and wields a sword to keep mummy!Noah at bay. It might succeed. He might just walk right past her, on account of having dropped his glasses and being half blind.
And then I refined and finished a drawing of Claire and Gretchen standing in the rain, sharing an umbrella and looking adoringly at each other. I am very proud of that one, to be honest.
Now I'm going to watch some more Californication, and I hope for some great Mink scenes (Mia/Hank - I just can't help it, I make up names for everything!). Or maybe see some Mew scenes (Mia/Lew). Or at least some Mia. *nods* That's what matters.
Good night.

Eventless day today. Was at home. Watched the dog (her toe is removed, and she is fine, but she hasn't had to have that plastic thing around her neck yet - she will tomorow.), watched some telly, listened to the radio and wrote some. Oh, and drew some more chibis. Little frog!Peter is very cute, I have to say. Bunny!Sylar is sporting a pissed off expression and crossed arms, and ghost!Mohinder is holding a chain and looking slightly curiously at Sylar. I have no comment to that though.
Next up is mummy!Noah. And clown!Samuel. And zombie!Nathan. That one will be tricky though, but fun.
There was short clip from behind the scenes of 'Strange Attractors' today on E! News. It didn't spoil too much, but it did make me want to watch the ep even more. And it made me want to yell at the screen to those sorority sisters to stop interrupting all the time. *shakes head* But the little I did see was cute, and the interview with Hayden was too.
And I have gotten pains on my lower right side. I've managed to get mom and dad to worry it might be something with the appendix. Now they've made me promise to call whenever, even if it's really late, like in the middle of the night. Hopefully it's gone by tomorrow morning.
Which, by the way, will be a very early morning. I'm going home at six in the morning to watch Lady while mom and dad are at work. *yawns* I'll get five or six hours sleep tonight. But I don't mind, I'll nap when I come home.

Wathing telly. Smallville. Oooh, Dean... er, I mean Jensen Ackles is there! Making a pretty pout, all model face like.
Oh my... Chloe - a cheerleader? Or wearing such an outfit anyway. Hmm. Between the earlier smooch and her now even crazier behaviour I need to watch this. I love love spells and things of that like.
I'm all giggly and bouncy today, and can't wipe this grin off my face. My parents are gonna wonder and give me strange faces, but I don't care. I may have to wait until Saturday to see Heroes, but oh how good it will be. I knew it would, and after reading some stuff (I know, I said I wouldn't, but it literally showed up in front of my eyes and I just accidentally read it... okay, so I had to click a link to read it, and scroll down, but I still call accident) it's confirmed - Glaire awsomeness!
*does happy dance* I feel like playing chess now. It's been so long, and I think my friend holds the crown. That needs to be changed. Plus, then, whenever I win, I can actually do the happy dance *giggles*
Going to get Lady from the vet later. Her toe gets removed today, and she will for the fourth time travel in a car. Might never happen again, so I should go with them.
Now I'm going to refill my chocolat milk, and go see if anyone is doing anything for Halloween. If they are, I'll just have to decaorate and if not celebrate, then at least make an atmosphere on my own. It works too. I'll just have to plan better next year.
Because I'm bored, and a little tired, and the combination makes me giggly, I decided to write about my day. My life isn't that eventful, so be warned: there will be no wild party scenes, and no exciting trips.
( My day today: )
That's it, folks. I bid you all goodbye, and a good night.
Adieu.
