And so I'm 25. I have entered that terrifying space in time called "quarter life". Okay, it's not terrifying. Still, I'm not getting any younger and I feel like I've missed out on a lot of things. I was recently at a party, and as I watched my companions talk about photography, recording, travelling and whatnot, I realized there's so much out there to see. I should consider breaking out of my shell more if I want to accomplish things.

Here's to another fun and interesting year. ^^

Random rant: Someone used up my black pentel pen. Pfft.

CSI's Warrick Brown is gone.

SVU's Casey Novak is gone. (This one really devastated me. She's the reason I watch the show!)

L&O's Detective Ed Green is gone.

Moonlight got cancelled.

Women's Murder Club got axed.

Shark's not coming back.

Why, Santa, WHY!?

...but what the heck. Better late than never.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYBODY!

So the shows are starting to come back from their holiday hiatus. To be honest, I really don't know if I should be happy or sad about that; happy because of the new episodes, sad because that means there are only a few episodes left because of the writer's strike. Oh well, I guess I'm going to have to live on reruns and DVDs until they've figured things out.

I heard a rumor that BIONIC WOMAN will be cancelled. I'm not really surprised. I think Michelle Ryan's okay, but the stories have been very...bland, for lack of a better term. I would really like to see the original BIONIC WOMAN series - I've been reading reviews that it was way better (heck, originals are almost always better).

School starts again in a couple of days. We still haven't interviewed the people we need for thesis, I haven't found a company to apply to for my internship, and I'm still on vacation mode that I really don't want my vacation to end. *sigh* Such is life.

So it's the start of the sembreak. No more classes. No more assignments. I should be shouting "I'm free (for at least two weeks)!" at the top of my lungs but noooooooooooooooo. The word "thesis" is lurking at the back of my head. Gah.

Anyhow, it's been four weeks since the start of the Fall lineup. So far none of my usual shows have disappointed me. The new shows however...

Bionic Woman - I read somewhere that it was like a cross between Smallville and Alias. I'm thinking its true. The pilot was interesting enough to keep me tuning in week after week, and right now I guess I still don't know if I'm going to continue watching it or not.

Moonlight - The pilot sucked. The episode after the pilot sucked (plus Mick was incredibly stupid). The third episode was a whole lot better. I just hope the next one won't be a big turn off, or as interested as I am with vampires, I'm going to drop this show.

Women's Murder Club - I recently posted a review about the pilot. Anyhow, the first thing that caught my attention was Angie Harmon. I know her from Law and Order as ADA Abbie Carmichael and I thought she was great in that role. I wasn't surprised that she was cast as a homicide detective, I think it suits her just right. She's still a little awkward with holding a gun, but I'm sure she'll get used to it.

There. It's already 9am here, and I'm awake considering I slept at around 4am. Darn body clock. I'm going back to bed.

My favorite shows are back! Yey!

- Law and Order SVU

- CSI New York

- CSI

- Bones

- Cold Case

- Shark

I get to write reviews again!

I'm also trying out new shows like Bionic Woman and Moonlight. I hope they don't disappoint.

Things have been pretty hectic for me lately, with my thesis and all. But things are going well, and with any luck, I'll be able to (finally) graduate by March next year. I can't wait!

Okay, that's enough for now. Back to work!
