( Practically Perfect )

I'm not sure if anyone's interested, but I just got done watching Eric in the canceled show Fear Itself and he played a hit man (or maybe serial killer would be a better description) from 1920's who tries to make up for his mistakes in the present. It was really very good, but you know me I love Eric and the supernatural combining the two is perfection.

If you want to watch it's here.

It really is an interesting concept.

I'm not really all that big of a Madonna (I like some of her songs, but that's about it), but I have to applaud her for what she did in Romania. And it wasn't even one of her causes or anything. A troupe of gypsy (or Roma) dancers were touring with her and they told her about the discrimination they faced so she decided to speak out against it and from the reaction she got from the crowd she really touched a nerve. Maybe this will get people talking, I mean they don't even get social benefits. Of course, as a non-European I know very little about this, but I found it interesting.

When I was younger (maybe fourth grade) I had this Anne Frank book (I think it was called something like Anne Frank: Beyond the Diary) and it had pictures from the Holocaust. One of the ones that still stands out in my mind is of group of children and the caption next said that they were Gypsy children recently arrived in Auschwitz and were sent to the gas chambers shortly after. I think that this is a subject I really want to learn more about. Of course, there is a lot more I want to know about the Holocaust which is why I wanted to take literature class, but oh well.

The Breakfast Club! I first saw it towards the end of high school and fell head over heels! It's a truly awesome movie. Althrough, it was weird to learn that Judd Nelson is the same age as my dad.

John Hughes was a cinematic genius and he will be missed.

Dear ABC Family,

Do NOT touch The Breakfast Club! If you ruin it like you did 10 Things I Hate About You and Legally Blonde I will be extremely pissed!

The great thing about truly awesome teen movies is that they don't need to be remade in order to appeal to the new generation. I wasn't even born when The Breakfast Club came out (2 months away from being born actually) and it still touched me and let me know that other teenagers had gone through what I was going through.

Not thankful,
Mindy

Sorry, I had to get that off my chest. I really hate what they've been doing to the 90's teen movies.

( These are there their stories )

So I've been applying to ads on Craig's List for positions at daycare centers and babysitting jobs. Tonight I got this email:

Thank you for your email about my posting on craigslist . To be honest , I need a reliable and intelligent person ; Not only will you have to look after my daughter but you will also help her to solve homeworks . If you don’t mind , please spend a few minutes on this small test : http://iq.extralink.us

Then let me know your result . We will check and mail you back within 24 hours

Thanks

First I was slightly offended, but I go to take the test anyways. And it's seriously one of those IQ tests you find on Facebook or something. The questions were incredibly easy (Who's the president? What country borders the US to the north?) and then at the end when they told me I got the highest score of the day they wanted my cell phone number. Nope. Not going to happen. I don't know if I even want to reply or think about working for this person. I'm just completely turned off.

And I have some more promising leads. I interviewed on Thursday with a daycare down the street (infant room! totally awesome!) and I should hear back from them mid-week. Then on Monday I'm going to visit a center and hopefully interview for a job.

If you have two classes with mostly the same students and you know that most of the said students are under a lot of stress because the department made mistakes when setting the schedule. Wouldn't it make it make sense to give said the students a break by making one project due the week before finals and the other the week of finals?

Apparently not. And after my dealing with the department this quarter I'm not surprised that I have two rather large research projects due to the same instructor a day apart. This will not be fun.

( More Eric under here! )

Can't help but answer this one.

For awhile I was really into the Disney show In A Heartbeat (the show that Val comes from). Jamie one of the characters was always wearing a shirt that said "Make It Stop". I just added his name to the end and there's my interesting name:)

I think I've pretty much come to terms with everything that happened, but it still just feels strange. Just how things are going to be next quarter. I've known most of the people in my program for about three years and while I don't hang out with them outside of class. It's just been nice having class with them all the time and knowing that I'll usually know people in most of my classes and that we're all in it together. And next quarter I'm going to be all by myself.

And I want to do more than the extra tutoring. I don't think that'll let me take the reading class again next quarter, but I want to take one other class. Just so I can continue learning since I'm stuck in school for another year. [Unknown LJ tag] you get this, right? I'm am planning on trying to get a job at a daycare at least part time, but I should still be able to make it work.

Tomorrow I see my adviser (she's pretty much the only one that I feel is truly on my side) about dropping the class. And soon after I will be tossing all the papers having to with that class. Bonfire, anyone?

Off to work now hopefully I won't get too hostile. Sunday shifts always put me in a bad mood for some reason.

So I just found out I'm not student teaching this spring, which means I'm not graduating.

It's not such a bad thing because I was overwhelmed this quarter.

I just don't know anymore.

I think my dreams are coming true! I was just reading an article about when Law & Order: CI is coming back and I noticed that Eric's name was in the guest star list! I really hope that it's true! I've been waiting for him to guest star on CI practically since JN came on. Those two have such awesome chemistry! Them in an intergorration room together would be amazing! Of course, he could be in a Goren-Eames episode which would still be cool I would just have to write fics about Wheeler and Eric meeting in the squad room or something. I really hope that this is true. I need more Eric on TV!

I wonder if this means that Lauren Ambrose will guest star on Law & Order again (she's already done it three times) and her character will a connection with Lupo. And that Reagan will be on something in the US besides Lifetime movies (and Sci-Fi for that matter). And that Reagan and Eric will be on a show together, preferably as a couple. A girl can dream, right?

Now to get started on my pile of homework...

This is the first story I've up in God knows how long, but I was inspired by last night's Life on Mars and this has been growing in my head all day. It's the beginning of a crossover with Conviction. I'm pretty giving Brian a different background (being raised by his cop uncle, as opposed to his single mother) and seeing where it takes me. It should be an interesting exploration in character development. I've always wanted to do something like this with Brian:)

( Brother's Keeper: Part 1 )

No school today!! And I do mean NO SCHOOL! OSU canceled today which is surprised me, but it'll be nice to be able to catch up and have no reason to go anywhere. I'm just so happy not to be in my crazy reading class right now.

Okay, I have alot that I need to be doing right now, but I got distracted and did some googling and found this: http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2008/12/law-order-cis-j.html. I'm not sure it's news for some of you, but I found it interesting and exciting. I really hope that they work it into the storyline somehow. I mean they worked Rachel Griths second pregnancy into Six Feet Under. Anyways, I just hope that she chooses a name better than Ignatius.

And defy_n_gravity, you know that Wheeler hooked up with Peluso at some point and that he's the father and they will have a little red head named Hannah:)

Yes, I have a life it's just too stressful at the moment so I'm hiding.
