Tagged and My holidays

So let's see. 5 facts about me, huh? Okay.

1.- I am a dance-spicy-food-loving, mid twenties Mexican girl.

2.- I am very thin, It is really a big problem for me to gain any weight and every kilo gained is a major victory . My doc says it's because my thyroid does its work very well. Too well. But after fighting against my slimness during my teen years, I've come to accept myself as I am.

3.- I adore reading, specially science fiction and fantasy.

4.- I've parachute-jumped, made trekking, speleology, rappelling and let's see what else life brings my way.

5.- I'm a very obsessive person and when something gets in my system (tv shows, books, videogames, etc) I just adore it and live it intensively, but I bet many people here is that way .

Now, I just returned from the most delicious holidays in Acapulco, a beautiful bay with gorgeous beaches. My hubbie and I stayed in this romantic hotel called "Las Brisas" and we had a private pool and all the room had flowers everywhere. The view was awesome and the food was great. I had never tasted a warm apple pie as delicious as this one! If you can, someday you have to visit this place. You'll love it. 'll try to post some pics later.

How can I express what this episode made me feel? It contained so many emotions, so many layers; friendship, loyalty, love, the sense of right and yet real human feelings which make us flawed, which make us biased and still, unique and wonderful.

Brennan faces the most difficult dilemma her super rational mind has ever had to face: a fight against her own heart and be the last hope for her father or the rock that would sink him to the bottom and wow... did we see ab incredible seesaw of potent emotions, not only from her but also from all her close circle, her friends, her workmates, her very own partner Booth, who had to fight against what his heart felt was right and what his partner was asking him to do.

We discovered just how loyal Angela's friendship was, and how Hodgins, Cam and Zack honored Brennan's desires, even if it went against her father.

And then, at the end of the chapter, Brennan does the last thing we would expect her to do, and it just blew mi mind... it left me mouth open and with an incredible warm feeling. I don't wish to talk about anything specific because if you saw this chapter, you know what I'm talking about, and if you didn't... I don't want to spoil it for you. Watch it; you'll be pleasantly surprised.

And still, we got to have our moments of mirth. Bones never fails on that.

Spoilers ahead.

This episode was very well publicized, so much that few people could escape the preview image that became the hook.

finally, in this episode we get what many of us expected, a kiss between Booth and Brennan. Many fans were very nervous about what this could mean. Would this mean B&B's relationship change? would this make the show jump the shark when the undeniable sexual chemistry was attenuated and somewhat resolved? Would the Moonlighting curse make of "Bones" one more of its victims?

It was not so. The scene was prepared in a way that would allow Booth and Brennan to keep on with their "normal" relationship without having to acknowledge any romantic feeling toward the other which was a brilliant move from the writers, yet, the moment was sweet, romantic and very exciting.

In this episode we witness how much Brennan has advanced with her life, the last Christmas she was away from the cheer, the sentimental bondings, the union with friends and family; she was a lonely being with a tormented past, yet now she has a family, she joins her friends, she shares these special holidays and allows herself to enjoy it.

The case was interesting and the way it was resolved, truly hilarious, but no doubt, the episode's main core was the personal relationships.

My only complain could be that Brennan seems to spend less and less time in the lab interacting with her squints, I wish we could go back to the time where her abilities were indispensable to solve the case.

Spoiler Ahead.

This is easily the most interesting and exciting episode in the season so far. The Gormagon arc is developing very well and we are giving many clues about what it all might be about in this episode.

It is also incredible how much Brennan has developed, we constantly see her opening to new experiences and relationships and her character is warmer as the episodes go by. Booth and her are becoming really close and comfortable with each other in a very credible way.

The episode was action packed as we hadn't seen in a while, persecutions, bombs, suspects and a final that surprised me. Dr. Sweets is a marvelous addition to the cast and makes the series more interesting. Also, what would a Bones episode be without its comedy moments? Comparing Gormagon to the Star Wars' Sith was very amusing and a smart way to explain the relationship of the secret society and Brennan pretending to act naturally while she knew was being spied on, was hilarious.

And finally, Brennan kissing Booth on the cheek was great, it seemed natural, believable and well, utterly cute.

Spoiler ahead.

This is one of the most hilarious episodes this series has featured so far.

Angela, Hodgins and a guest hot, bomb technician took all the hilarious moments in the episode. There were one liners that made me laugh like I hadn't done in along time while watching a series.

Yet the funny parts didn't take away the attention from the sensitive case which deals with an ex-activist with a family, which backgrounds resemble those of Brennan's history with her father, which allows her to make an introspection about the way she feels about Max Keenan. It was a nice moment, seeing her trying to reconnect with him, after several failed attempts.

And there is something... a change in the relationship between Booth and Brennan; possibly Brennan doesn't notice it, but Booth now tries to touch her at the smallest excuse. He hugs her, grabs her wrist, touches her back, and in the end of the episode, and after a first attempt, (and perhaps because he is drunk) he dares to place his forehead against her shoulder. It was a touching moment.

Brennan seems more human with each season an in this one, it was nice to see her consoling the daughter of the victim, giving her character more realism and humanity.

Producers it seems, also decided that since the story is developed in Washington, they should show some of the city and the chapters have featured some monuments, that is good, but they still need to improve their blue screen images.

A very amusing and entertaining episode that won't disappoint.

This show was a perfect window for many animators to show new, fresh and out of common animation. the content was rich in visual variety, music and thematics. It was also a great space for alternative culture and expression, and each one of the short shows featured in Liquid Television were different and entertaining. That grungy generation felt perfectly identified with it.

I remember specially Aeon Flux, Crazy Daisy Ed and Oddities. It is a real shame that MTV no longer has these alternative, free spaces on its channel, that has now been invaded by cheap mainstream quasi-culture and boring reality shows.
