Finished My Finals

As of about 2 today, I am finished with spring semester 2011. It's now in the prof's hands whether I pass or fail-not the most comforting of thoughts.

I went out for dinner; I have half for tomorrow. Got Mom the last present for Mother's Day/her birthday. Had a nice walk in the sunshine.

When I have watched Episode 2, I will post my notes here. I have yet to see it; I've been catching up on Supernatural's first season. For some reason I managed to see the third, but not the first and second or anything after three. It's a good show; I want to watch with everyone else in the fandom but I'm six years behind!

SPOILER LINE


Canton builds a pseudo-Pandorica. And apparently has a male black lover. Oh, the HORROR when it's '69.

Amy waffles on being pregnant. Apparently so does the TARDIS.

River kisses the Doctor for the first/last time. Little confused there. She called herself Doctor Song again.

The kid is either River or it's Amy's child and I haven't decided which. Probably not River. Awfully young for regeneration, eh?

Why was this little girl on life support? Did the Silence steal her or create her? She knows she's a Time Lord. Why hasn't HE sensed her?

Is this his daughter (again?) That went so well the LAST TIME!

We still haven't figured out who kills the Doctor or why (I don't think it's the little girl, despite what some are saying.) Since the kid's out of the suit we can assume the Silence got into it afterwards (if that was a Silence, and since the Doctor killed them all by having everyone else on Earth do it.

This episode left me entirely confused, by the way. I can only hope others are just as lost.

Next week we get pirates. And mermaids.

PS: Just heard that Osama Bin Laden is dead. Most people here saying it's a good thing, but let's be realistic here. We chased the guy for ten years, give or take, and lost a lot of lives in doing so. I knew from the moment we started chasing him that they would never, never take that man alive. He would rather have been dead than be in the hands of the people he hated so much. You have to question whether this will make things better or worse. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Has someone already taken his place? Was it worth it?

I guess time will tell. I guess rejoicing is all right, if praising the death of another human being, no matter who it is, is the right thing to do. No matter how many died in that day and the days, months, and years that followed, rejoicing over someone's death seems crude.
