I had an urge to title this one "Good, Clean Fun" haha. But in case the last one had you depressed about Doctor/River, this one can make you throw up!
I like Doctor/River as a pairing, I really do, but watching River be at all physical with 11 is sort of like the proverbial vehicle crash that you do not want to watch but cannot look away from.
I both cheer and retch when the relationship progresses.
but I was noticing when I was sorting my screencaps that the two cheer-retch scenes from Day of the Moon had similar colors, so, in my usual fashion I tried to reconcile my feelings about the situations by making them into a wallpaper.

lol I completely agree with: "I like Doctor/River as a pairing, I really do, but watching River be at all physical with 11 is sort of like the proverbial vehicle crash that you do not want to watch but cannot look away from."
Excellent wallpaper!

yeahhhh I prefer the flirting remain verbal, but they're cute and fun and I always want the Doctor to be happy.

Yeah, 'cos hawking up my dinner is gonna make everything alright! Nah, just kidding.
Love it, as always.

HAHA. thanks.
it's just that the scene with the "stop it" "make me" "maybe I will" seriously was...I loved the flirting but...*shudder*
oh to be 6 and have NO IDEA.

It's a love-hate relationship I suppose. When I got to that bit I laughed, but it was kinda an incredulous laugh. I didn't know what to think! XD
If only.... I need to work on FINISHING things too!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, it was one of the those unsettling moments where your mind just draws a blank because the sensory input is too confusing for a default reaction.
...finish what things?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Exactly. I have at least two unfinished drawings in my folder and another in my school planner that I only use for doodles and the occasional homework assignment that's too long to remember. I really like the one in the planner, but it kinda needs a head....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
do you have any idea how many stories I've started, kinda written, mapped out, mostly written, or have in several large pieces?
...if I could finish things, I'd be a writer. I mean, I dunno how good some of it is, but, people repeatedly tell me I'm good, so in all that mess, SOMETHING must be publishable (if finished).
all of a sudden I'm thinking of Donna's "daughter" and the faceless playdoh Donna....

Haven't a clue, though I have a friend who's trying to write a book but keeps starting over. I think it's been about ten times now?
If I finished things other than homework maybe I wouldn't be devoting my life to the Internet.... Nah, I'll always be doing that. XD
Oh no, what've I done?! O_O
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I just have more ideas than time or...anything else. I only have one finished story (that's not fan-fiction)
but I have two HUGE original worlds with large chunks of story (one of them is truly massive, 5 different major cultures with languages and the whole nine yards like Lord of the Rings...only not exactly fantasy) and 6 YA supernatural romances in varying states of completion (they're fluff/trash but a lot more likely to start my 'career' than my really big undefinable genre story with no definable target audience...that's easier to get published once you've established a name). The rest is a lot of scraps and bits and things that might be good if I ever developed them but are in very small pieces.
I devote my life to the internet more when I have friends or people to talk to. when I don't I do a lot more writing. LOL.

You are tuly an amazing person. I could never write that much. XD
I can believe that. I do the same.

I'm sort of like Van Gogh, and I don't mean I think I'm that good, just that, if I am amazing, if what I do is somehow good and not something everyone can do...
...it still comes with the price tag of being a nutter. not the same kind of nutter as Van Gogh, again...
but while I never want to be normal, some times I wish I were functional.

Well, do what works for you. If talking to people over the Internet helps, good. I used to be really shy all throughout primary and middle school. Then sometime between the ends of eighth and ninth grade I started talking to people online. I don't know how, but it's helped me become more social in real life. I'm still uncomfortable around people I don't understand or know particularly well, but now at least I'll respond to them when before I'd just kinda ignore them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I used to respond fine...not always necessarily quite what they excepted...now sometimes I open my mouth and no words come out, I just mouth at people. But that's better than when I squeak. Sometimes when people startle me, I just squeak at them.
I was never actually shy. Awkward, but not shy. now everything is 100 times scarier than it used to be. Things I could do as a kid...now I can't. I dunno.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I guess when you're a kid you're still naive about so many things. And your world is smaller. Much fewer strangers.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
true.
it was safer when I was smaller. I didn't know as much and my parents could fix anything.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Now the world is a huge and potentially scary place and your parents are just people, like everyone else including yourself. Oh, how times change....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
exactly. AND not only has it changed but I'm supposed to do all these things like have a job and a boss and bills and some kind of dwelling and a car and DRIVE and probably date people and make babies and....how they hell am I supposed to do all that AND deal with the fact that everything got bigger and scarier? and I only have half the parents I used to have. My mum is awesome, but she's one person. that takes away some of the magical parental safeness both by having absolute proof that parents are mortal and reducing their number.
....but at the same time...most people manage or seem to. It's just whatever happens when you're a teenager that makes you grow up...didn't happen to me. I got older, sometimes a bit more mature, but I'm still really just a 10 year old. Adolescence was something that basically only happened on the outside. But at the same time, I was a funny kid. I was always older and more mature when I was. That part never changed, it's just now that's the part that's "normal" and the kid part that used to be normal is me being childlike for my age.
......I sincerely hope your having more luck with life than I am. I feel like I'm making it out to be horrible but I think for most people life is merely unpleasant, not dreadful.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
These things intimidate me.... Doesn't help I took a finance class last year and I learned about it all in detail >_<
To me, I don't think I'll ever grow up completely. At least I hope not! Or maybe I'm already more mature than the people I go to school with. I manage to stay outside of all that high school drama that goes on, which I am very happy about.
I dunno, it just seems like there's a difference. I'm just not sure of which end of the spectrum I'm nearer to.
Ideally, my plan is to go to college, get a degree in something interesting, invent something and make enough money off it so I don't have to worry about the supporting the family bit so I can work on what I want, when I want to. This probably won't happen, but I can dream....
I also intend to squeeze as much enjoyment out of my spare time as possible.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I suggest you get a degree in something useful rather than interesting.
I have a degree in something interesting...it doesn't help me much at all. I mean, I love anthropology, but there's not much you can do with a BA in anthro. I have one cousin who got a degree in some kind of music -- he works for verizon doing something utterly unrelated. I have another cousin who got a degree in philosophy (which one assumes was interesting to her)...she became a teacher because there was basically nothing else for her to do, my older sister got a masters degree in art therapy...and ended up working for an insurance company. my mum has a degree in history...she worked at a factory til she got married and had kids, now she works as a clerk at a hospital.
don't get me wrong, I loved my education, it was mostly wonderful and I learned a lot and it makes me a better person...but even if I woke up tomorrow unafraid of everything...getting a job and all that stuff would be a challenge.
sometimes it's like age is a straight line:
________________________________
and most people are on the line
_1_____10_________35____________70
but people like you and me, we're off to the side or under or above or something.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, interesting to me is something science-y/math-y/tech-y. I could probably find somewhere to use that.
My dad has two doctorates and law school Now he teaches some law classes and human growth and development at the university. My mum's working on finishing her degree, but she works in the library. I'm not sure about my extended family....
Yeah, I'd say we're in about the fifth dimension of that line.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well some of my extended family works in their field of study...I think...
especially the techy sides of math and science are good idea. my little sis is going for marine biology, which, while important does not have a promising job market, so not all sciences are a good idea, but the techy ones tend to be.
although, the world may crumble in your life time rendering much technology unreliable or useless so I'd say major in something like computers but minor in something like cobbling (cuz most colleges totally offer cobbling). I'd say pick a science that has practical fields in modern and traditional technology, but most sciences make you pick a fairly narrow course.
that's it, now I'm saying "the fifth dimension" whenever anyone asks my age.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I was thinking something artsy craftsy or music or something as a minor.
Apocalypse!! Hello Doctor. XD
I approve.

oh! I am also physically more than one age, or I was, anyway, because my mouth was too small and I had to have my wisdom teeth out, so I went for a detailed x-ray of my mouth...and the staff were like "...huh." and I was omg omg what's wrong with my teeth! but they said "You have the wisdom teeth of a 20 year old." because they can tell how old you are but what teeth you have and how developed they are.
I was a couple of weeks away from my 18th birthday.
I was 17, my teeth were 20.
as far as I know, no one said anything like to my sister but she had to have hers out even younger than me. She was like 15 I think and said to the dentist "I think my wisdom teeth are coming in" and he said "I'll check, but there's no way, you're too young." but they were.
I can only conclude from this evidence that my sister is River Song.
I mean obviously there's a time distortion in our well, so our water is saturated in Timey-Wimey particles that can be absorbed by the growing teeth of children (thus my parents are unaffected). Since her teeth were more affected, it probably didn't appear until around or after, since she's five years younger and thus would have had more particles absorbed while her teeth were growing than me.
now, if there's a Time distortion in our well, and we're more than one age, the Doctor is BOUND to turn up eventually. But we know I'm too cowardly and peaceful and uninterested in snogging to be River. But my sister is much more violent, confident, she's actually a girl, and I dunno how she feels about snogging but we'll assume she's normal and likes it (...*shudder*).
therefore: My sister is River Song.
(she's gonna be pissed when she finds out though, she doesn't like Doctor Who much...has a soft spot for the Ood though...)

I don't even have wisdom teeth, nor will I ever. Genetics. Gotta love 'em!
River Song sister.... O_O
Potential Doctor visits are worth Time distortion! Just make sure to mention me when he comes.
Oh, the poor, poor girl. Does she know how many people wish they were River?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha, yeah my sister had only three wisdom teeth so I told her she's more highly evolved than me.
...if the Doctor turns up what makes you think I'll be able to speak AT ALL? I'll just squeak at him hysterically. But I'd totally point in your general direction while I was doing it.
she has no idea about River at all and if I tried to tell her how many people wanted to be River she'd just be like "you're all crazy, it's FICTION."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Neither of my parents had wisdom teeth and non of their parents did either....
Just kinda point at the computer or send me a message full of gibberish. I'll translate that as "HE'S HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" XD
Good thing 'crazy' is a compliment.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
...oooh you're from a good line of non-wisdom teeth people! which is great until that apocalypse we mentioned because your grandkids might need wisdom teeth if things regress far enough.
hahahaha, I point to the computer, and the Doctor will look at your icon and...
