Doctor Who Perfection (and more tedious life things)

Oh, my god. Doctor Who was perfect. Well, not perfect. There are few things I take fault with actually. But the ending was perfect. I watched it in 3D which was slight panic doing as I just couldn't figure out how to put it in the right mode. It was mainly difficult because my tv has two remotes for some reason. Turns out that there was just a button to press on one of them. It was rather confusing. So I technically  watched it minute behind everyone else with the whole over 75 countries worth watching thing. It looked good in 3D though. It actually added something to it, it wasn't just a gimmick. It was rather cool with a random dalek randomly shooting out of people.
It was really good episode, yes they were faults, things I would have prefer not to be in the episode at all. SPOILER ALERT: I was so glad that Rose Fucking Tyler was not in the damn thing. I hate her so much, I would rather have another companion have been the interface thing but at least she wasn't actually in it. Frankly, she came back far too many times for someone meant to be trapped in another dimension. Queen Elisabeth the English twat was far too petty looking. I mean she wasn't even TV ugly. Elisabeth was historical hideous. I also she rather boring historian figure. She a woman, but so was her crazy arse sister who went around killing Protestants and then Elizabeth did the obvious smart thing of not marrying the King of Spain who having been married to her sister and spent most of the marriage in another country from his wife. Wow, she wasn't an idiot. She just had really lucky rule. That's enough before this turns into a proper rant of some form.
 A few things that happened this week that are worth a mention. I mean my life doesn't revolved around Doctor Who *Laughs awkwardly* someday the Doctor will come for me. *Clears throats* Moving. I did  a tiny bit of my room by moving the bed temporally back to its old location, in front of my new bookcase, so now I kinda can lay my head on the books. I could now just move the long bookcase to the other side of the bed and I'll be surrounded by books when I sleep. Though, it be as awkward to get in and out of as it was moving it and the long bookcase is going to be bitch to move too which will evenualy have to happen.
This week has been another sleeply fest. I missed two days of that Team course thing due to sleeping through  my alarm. So fucking tired lately, I am actually sleeping at proper times. I'm also sleeping past my alarm, unable to leave my bed till noon. It just my body is just being awkward again. My leg been going numb move often again. I guess I'll just have to live with it.
 I had this interview thing for this hospitality course. To cut the story short I did not get on the course which is disappointing but not devastating. Oh, well life goes on and this means I can go back to my original plan of sleeping my days away once this Prince's Trust course is over.
Okay, I guess it wasn't eventfully week and I can't be arsed to actually talk about what going on with the Prince's Trust course thing as it rather lack muster at the moment which might be a reason why I can't get out of bed for it. Motivation is usefully to have on cold, Scottish morning. I'm going to  Christmas Festive in Glasgow tomorrow so I probably talk about that next week. Bye Losers.

Doctor, Doctor Who?

There were many more, more depressing thing I could have wrote about. Like the fact I'm petty sure I'm depressed again, slept most of the day away and hate it down here so much.

 Nevermind that though, we gonna talk Doctor Who. I actually watched the last two epsiodes.
For clarity that was the one that was on today (The Bells of Saint John) and the Christmas special (The Snowmen). It was actually the first time I watched the whole thing as on Christmas day I miss the middle of due to Family talking, maybe agurement. Well, I couldn't hear it and the TV box was turned off so I couldn't rewind back.

My lesson has been learned. Never watch something you really want to see with most of your family. Leave to be watched by yourself (or with the internet) months after its aired.

Or hours in the case of The Bells of Saint John as I was sleeping when it was on. I fell back to sleep at just before five and when I woke it was 8 something.

So the new companion, Clara. Though, seeing the promo for this ep, I thought maybe the mug was going to become a companion too. I'm disappointed that no one has made a joke aboout it and I'm too lazy to do it myself properly.

Clara seems alright, I like her so far and I really like how she got something going on. Moffat's companions all have actually, haven't they? I mean they not just there to repsent the audience at home, they actually bring something to the storyline.
 Yes, The Bells of Saint John was good, not favourite ep, but there can't all be or I won't have a favourite eps. I was intrigued by the whole Wifi thing, but not that thilled by what it actually turned out to be. I guess it was actually kinda similar to the whole hands free phone we had with the cyberman, now that I think about it, not quite. It just reminds me of it with the whole control thing.

I'm not going to say anything about my theories for this season, since I think its too soon with spoilers. Also I want to kinda think about for awhile.

Though, lets talk about the anniversary. Apparently, it been confirmed that Billie Piper and David Tennent are back. Yay, for TENnent. BOO for Billie Piper. I'm one of the very rare -as in I never see anyone else say this, but I've never went looking for it- people in the DW fandom who hates Rose Tyler. I just think she a terrible character, I also hate nine the whole first series characters are terrible (except for Captain Jack, but he doesn't come into his own till later).

There were trying to do something that was just never going to work. I mean there obviously didn't understand their audience. Also Rose Tyler was meant to Nineteen. I always thought she was meant to be in her late 20s.

Generally, I like to kid to Eight (that movie was terrible) and Nine didn't happen. I have instead replace them with the Doctors who appear in Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death. After all Moffat did write it, even if it is a parody or spoof.

That me done for now with my Doctor Who thinking. See you lot next week, I'm off to dig myself out from the barricade.
