Trock!

aka Time Lord Rock!

aka songs about Doctor Who.
It's my new favorite genre.

Yes. I am a huge nerd.

My favorite songs are all by Chameleon Circuit:
-Blink
-K9's Lament
-Shipwrecked
-Exterminate, Regenerate

They're all really awesome. Shipwrecked is sad, Blink is bouncy and fun, K9's Lament is strangely sad and amusing, and Exterminate Regenerate is just winnish.

Anyway, I started school today! Woop woop. I'm quite pleased with it so far. Physics is awesomeeeee. 8)

That's all for now... remember, kids: COMMENTS ARE YUMMY AND GOOD FOR THE SOUL.

Doctor Who Season 5 Review Part 2 (SPOILERS)

Episode Seven: Amy's Choice
Rating: 10/10
Okay, this was just AWESOME. Rory was adorable and it was good to see some Amy/Rory love for once. I was on the edge of my seat and when the Dream Lord was the Doctor I was like "HOSHIT! WUT!?"
Totally thought it was the Master. Lulz.


Episode Eight: The Hungry Earth
Rating: 9/10
I really enjoyed this one! Some of the minor characters were annoying, but the story was pretty cool. The alien was a tad odd, not gonna lie.
I don't have a lot to say for this two-parter. It didn't stick with me really.


Episode Nine: Cold Blood
Rating: 9/10
Okay, first of all WHY DID RORY JUST DIE. AGAIN. *whimpers*
But Amy's reaction was GOOD.
Soooo good. But then she FORGOT HIM. I cried.
Better than part one, but to be honest it still didn't stick with me much.


Episode Ten: Vincent and the Doctor
Rating: 12 billion/10
Oh my god.
This was such a great episode. The Doctor was adorably flailing when trying to assist Vincent, Vincent himself was just BRILLIANT, and Amy was just sweet. I love her, and her whole crying for no apparent reason thing was great. The end of this really got to me... I was in tears. It was so touching and eloquently done.


Episode Eleven: The Lodger
Rating: 10/10
Okay, this one was just funny. The Doctor was a total goober, Amy was badass with her TARDIS-flyin' skillz, and the alien was creepy. I felt the "half-TARDIS" bit was never fully explained and left a lot to be desired, but it was a good funny prelude to a seriously intense finale.


Episode Twelve: The Pandorica Opens
Rating: 11/10
OH MY LORD. This episode was full of so much intensity. It brought the entire SEASON together and it was all BAM!Rory BAM!Aliens BAM!Doctor in box BAM!Amy is DEAD!? And then the TARDIS is blowing up and the universe is disappearing and it's DONE. And The Doctor is trapped and I was left staring. Thinking HOW THE HELL?


Episode Thirteen: The Big Bang
Rating: HOLY JESUS!/10
This was SO intense. I love that time travel actually gets USED, in a funny Bill-and-Ted kinda way. I loved River and her awesomeness. And I never thought I'd say that. XD
I loved the fez. I freaked when the Doctor "died." Little Amy is so cuteeeeee! Rory is my hero, Amy is so lucky to have that man. Even if he was plastic.
I adored the wedding. I love that they got married and were happy and SAVED the Doctor and just GAH. Moffatt, I friggin LOVE you.


All-in-all, I think it was a brilliant season, my favorite next to season 4. Amy and Rory are amazing companions and Matt Smith has earned his title as my second-favorite Doctor next to Tennant.
I can't wait for Christmas. 8D

The Eleventh Hour

Found the link on Planet Gallifrey and holy crap, guys.

Who likes Matt Smith already!?

*raises hand*

Dunno how I feel about the new companion yet... still!

SUCH EXCITEMENT!!!!

~A

THE RANDOMNESS OF ME. Plus time lord.

Yay new picture!!!

So, today I got no homework from any of my classes. Not even ENGLISH. Shocker, right?

And tomorrow I have a Biology test, yahoo.

BUT THIS WEEK IS A SHORT WEEK because there's a Teacher Workshop day on Friday.

So today feels like Tuesday! JOY.

In other news, Daylight Savings started. I haaaaaate that. It's so annoying to me. Glark.

And my school's musical, Into the Woods, opens on Thursday. I'm really excited because a friend of mine is in it, and it's a really cool play anyway.

What's new with you??

DOCTOR WHO SPECIALS, nerdness, and LOLz

SO. Dearest readers.

Today, I went downtown with my darling brother, who is staring over my shoulder asking for his turn.... anyway, so we went to Bull Moose, a DVD/music/stuff store. I got the DOCTOR WHO COMPLETE SPECIALS DVD SET. FIVE, that's right, FIVE discs of awesome. And it has David Tennant's video diary, too. OH EM GEE. *has fangirl heart attack*

So yeah, that was awesome. Also, the cashier and I had a chat about David Tennant while I was paying. Oh joy. <3

And so tonight's plan is pretty much to watch The End of Time parts 1 and 2. I'm excited and also nervous, because I know David leaves, and I am gonna cry. But the Master is in these episodes!!!!! I LOVE HIM.

I think he might have to make an appearance in my fanfic. I'm serious. GOOD LORD. I am a nerd and I need help.



So, I might post at some point a blog about WHY I love the Master. Because I know many think I am freaky.

Welp, that's all for now, readers. Off to read some Othello... *cries* I don't like that book. Damn.
And then... study for Bio... and then... call Rose... and then....

Anyway. Rambling. Laugh out loud.

Love and lemmings,
Auddie

thoughts for the day

1. Doctor Who theme song = best way to wake up each day.

2. Ice cream is the best food in the world.

3. This man has too much attractiveness to be human. He must be an alien:


4. It's the weekend. This is a very good thing.

5. I'm reading this book called "Unwind." If you're into sci-fi/futuristic novels (i.e. Feed, The Giver, The hunger Games ect.) you'll like it. I'm over halfway through because I've been steadily reading it all day. Yeah. Even in class. But honestly, you don't need to pay too much attention in computer applications.

6. I'm really ready to be done with sophomore year. Being a junior is going to be so much more fun: I'll be out of gym, the most hated class of my day; I'll be IN intro to psychology, which will be extremely awesome, and most of all, I'll never have to deal with my witch of an English teacher again, and that's putting it nicely.

7. I'm really extremely excited for the new season of Doctor Who. At first, I was really, REALLY mad that David Tennant was leaving the show, because, as you should have noticed, I'm in love with the man. But I was also sad because since Russel T. Davies is ALSO no long lead writer, a lot of my favorite characters (Rose, Donna, Martha, Jack, The Master as played by John Simm) are also going to be gone, most likely. And that depresses me that we may not see them ever again. I love Donna more than anyone normal should, and I hate the fate she has to endure. It's the worst of the three fates the Doctor's women have suffered in the past 4 seasons, in my opinion.
I also love the Master, so much it's creepy. I have yet to see The End of Time, but I know he basically as good as dies. At any rate, he's gone. And hell, but I'm sad! He's such an amazing villain, I want him to stay forever!!!
But in the end, my thoughts stand thus:
a) Matt Smith looks really great from what I've seen.
b) I don't know how I'll feel about Amy Pond... I get a little Rose Tyler vibe from the trailer, and even though I like Rose she was a bit of a possessive brat.
c) I'm so excited for the return of the weeping angels!!!

9... no, 8.... I feel like the Doctor... um, H. I really want to get ice cream right now. And watch The End of Time. Gotta wait for it to come out on Netflix...

Love and lemmings,
Audrey

Dust Off Your Converse Episode 2 Excerpt

ONE

Rose

The Doctor twisted the vector tracker, yanked the dimensional stabilizer, and smacked a variety of buttons seemingly at random. I watched him, grinned excitedly. He pumped what looked like a bicycle pump on the side, and then slapped the side excitedly. “Bada-boom-ba!” he exclaimed. “Away we go!”
I felt the TARDIS shudder violently beneath me, but I didn’t care. I savored the feeling, because it felt as good as a hug from a friend, or the warmth of a hot shower after a long day. There was so much comfort in the erratic jostling of the TARDIS in flight, and I could tell the Doctor felt it too, even as we both held on for dear life and he pressed down buttons with both hands and one foot.
“Push the temporal shifter, would ya?” he asked, his Converse slipping off the console with a thud.
“The what?”
“Green button with the red thingy on it. Just there, next to the purple blinky thing.” He nodded to it. I pressed it with a wry smirk.
“Is that a technical term? ‘Blinky’?”
He stuck out his tongue at me. “Wait till you see where we’re going!” he yelled over the sudden burst of noise.
We careened to a stop and I felt the wind smacked out of me as my gut bashed into the safety railing.
“Ow! All right, that was fun,” he groaned. He’d tried to put his foot back on another button, but we’d stopped so violently that he’d fallen on his back on the ground, one leg in the air.
“You okay there?” I asked, suppressing a laugh.
He frowned at me. “Yeah. Don’t laugh.” He jumped up, brushed himself off, and said grandly, “You ready for this?”
“You have to ask?!” I was jumping up and down. “Where are we?”
“The planet of Aristotle, first inhabited by a humanoid race in the year 2654. It is currently the year 3000.” He crossed to the door and threw it open. “It’s gorgeous, especially now. Cleanest air you’ll ever inhale.”
He stepped onto the ashen ground and dust puffed up, causing him to cough. He waved it away, squinting around. “Oh no,” he said after he’d finished hacking. I joined him, looking out.
The landscape was a wasteland, the sky a dirty yellow and clouds of smoke filled the air. What looked like a vaguely New York skyline sprawled in the distance, completely in ruins. The Doctor’s brow knit together, his expression grim. “This isn’t right.”
Before either of us could speak, however, and man dressed in a dirty overcoat appeared seemingly from nowhere, grabbed me by the arm, and hissed, “You fools! Get out of the open!” He tugged me away, and the Doctor was at our heels at once. A siren wailed eerily in the distance, and suddenly the ground trembled beneath our feet. I finally spoke as the man shoved me behind a large pile of rubble. “Oi, buddy, watch it,” I growled. He merely waved the Doctor next to me.
“Stay low,” he hissed, and the Doctor squatted on his heels, looking pensive. He waited till the ground stopped shaking to speak.
“What was that?”
The man stared at him. “You don’t know?”
The Doctor’s expression became darker. “If I knew, I wouldn’t be asking, now, would I?”
The man hesitated. I sighed. “Look, where are we?”
“Good question!” the Doctor exclaimed. “Oh, see, this is why I like you, Rose.” I flushed.
“This is the outskirts of New William, on the coast of Marlowe Bay,” the man said, interrupting our banter.
“That can’t be right,” the Doctor frowned.
“Why, what’s wrong?” I asked.
“That’s just… where I meant to go,” he said meekly.
“Did you get the date wrong?”
“Another excellent question!” he exclaimed. He whipped around to look at the man. “What’s the year?”
“Oh, now you gotta know THAT—”
“Just answer the damn question,” I snapped.
“It’s the year 3000,” the man stuttered, abashed. The Doctor stared at him.
“You sure?” he asked. The man nodded, confused. “New William, Aristotle, 3000?” The man nodded again. “Sure we’re not a few planets off?” The man shook his head no. “A few miles?” Another no. “A centimeter?” the Doctor asked desperately. When the man shrugged, the Doctor dropped back onto his butt quite suddenly, looking flabbergasted. “Well, that’s a first, anyway.”
The man blinked. “Who are you two?” he asked.
“I’m the Doctor, she’s Rose,” the Doctor replied, jerking a thumb in my direction. “And you?”
The man stuck out a gloved hand. “I’m Chris,” he said grimly, shaking our hands. “Welcome to the end of the world.”

You're welcome, dears. You're welcome. XD

Hey guys. I have a mission for you!!!!! 8D

1. The third episode of DOYC is going to feature Cybermen. The song quote is: "Those evil natured robots, they're programmed to destroy us..." from Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots by The Flaming Lips. I don't have a title however. Ideas???

2. So. Since I'm an obsessive planning, any ideas for future episodes???

3. Finally... I might wanna do a sequel. (Like I said, obsessive planner.) So! Title ideas? My only idea has been Timey-Wimey, but that's kinda dumb, huh?

Anyway, here's an epic picture of mine for ya:



Go to my Flickr to see more awesomesauce.

~Auddiepants

Time Lord Victorious, Doctor Who Fan Videos and Barty Crouch Jr.

So, I watched Waters of Mars last night!

..spoiler alert..

HOLY WHAT THE HECK???!!! The Doctor was so.... insane! He was all mean and crazy! And those aliens were beyond disturbing. I didn't like their eyes.



I really want to see The End of Time now. Because the Doctor apparently redeems himself and besides, my all-time favorite villain ever is in The End Of Time.



In related-ish news, I have a little rant about Harry Potter for you.

The fourth movie is great and horrible at the same time.

THE GOODS:
1. Daniel Radcliffe, aka Harry, has amazingly improved acting skills in this movie.
2. RPatz (Cedward) isnt nearly as...unattractive in this movie. Probably because he actually has blood.
3. Ron is gawjus as always.
4. Barty Crouch Jr. Need I say more?


THE BADS:
1. Hermione. *headdesks* I'm sorry, I really am, but I just don't think Emma Watson is a great actress. And she's too pretty. So when she goes out in Yule Ball, it's not that shocking like it should be.
2. Dumbledore is MEAN!!! It's quite scary.
3. Ron gets such a small part in this movie, and is made to look like an idiot.
4. Fred and George needed more air time. They are brilliant.


Anyway, overall I love the movie, but my favorite is still #5, followed closely by #3.

MORE MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Opheliac by Emilie Autumn
2. Nighttiming by Coconut Records
3. Street Spirit (Fade Out) by Radiohead

AND IN CONCLUSION:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNGEnUhypyc

This is quite possibly the most brilliant fan video for Doctor Who I've ever seen. It made me cry a little. It's so amazing. You have to watch it.

~Audrey

So y'know what's depressing?

When no one comments on your blog. That's what.

It's my life's goal to meet someone named Purdy Peaches Murgatroid. Just sayin'.

10 REASONS WHY DOCTOR WHO IS THE BEST THING IN MY LIFE:

10. The Doctor is supermegafoxyawesomehot.
9. The Master is also quite attractive.
8. Donna is the MOST AWESOME HUMAN EVER.
7. The TARDIS is so badass.
6. The sonic screwdriver is the BEST. DEVICE. EVER. CREATED.
5. The Doctor can regrow his hand. And it's a fightin' hand!
4. Every episode has a fantastic new tale that is completely brilliant. (Except the Lazarus Experiment. Sorry, but that was a fail.)
3. The acting is INCREDIBLE.
2. The Doctor? He's amazing in so many ways. Gotta say it 100000 times, yeah.
1. THE MAIN REASON IS: it has made me so much more interested in the stars, the universe, in learning, caring about people, saving the universe, and being a supergenius.

I have such an obsession. I love that show with ever fibre of my BEING.

*sighs happily*

So. Y'know what sucks? We can't go to the Harry Potter exhibit!!!! D:

*le sigh* but we're having our own HP shebang on Sunday. So woo. And I'm babysitting tomorrow! Yaaaaay money! XD

Anyway. If you comment, I'll give you a cookie!!! *is a horrible shallow briber who needs comments to inflate my punctured ego*

Yeah.

Picture of extreme depression/made me cry/oh my god no?



-Audrey, who is now very sad because I looked at that picture. *clings* I love you, Ten. Don't go. ):
