caramelsilver: (Misc: girl with the clock)
On Thursday I'm going to London with my brother. I am absolutely besides myself with excitement! We're seeing Les Miserables, which, while not the sole reason, is the main reason why we're going and I CANNOT WAIT!! But, what else should I do? Do you have any suggestions to must dos in London?

And now I'm going to rec a lot of things:

On the internet:

- [livejournal.com profile] narniaexchange has a Tumblr now! Join it! so if you, like me, are spending more time on Tumblr than on LJ you will still be able to keep up with the exchange! (Is it sad that I'm jealous of how many followers it already has? Yes, a bit sad, I'd say.)

- This blog: smart, pretty and awkward is a brilliant advice blog that's just a delight to read. But it on your flist. You won't regret it!

- On Tumblr, I'd recommend adding brotips to your dash. I know many are tired of all these "rules" blogs, but this one is great, smart and not condescending. And yeah, it says bros, but women can be bros too, and the advice is brilliant and poignant most of the time!

To read:

-The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. And if you have read those books, then you should read this brilliant fic: To the Victor, the Spoils by [livejournal.com profile] annakovsky IT'S THE BEST FIC IN THE WORLD! When I finished the books this was exactly what I wanted to read, but I didn't think it would exist. AND THEN IT DID! AND I READ IT AND LOVED IT! And now I'm sad that this is the only one of its kind. It's AU, after the Hunger Games. Peeta is dead and Katniss is the victor, and everything is fucked up, messed up and AWESOME! The pairing is Katniss/Haymitch, sort of. So you're warned about that. But if anyone would like to write me something like this then they are so allowed!

- ALSO! Why did no one tell me about all the wonderful genderfuck fics in The Social Network fandom? [livejournal.com profile] grim_lupine I'm looking at you! Read: my fingertips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation girl!Mark, who decides to embrace the bitch title and gets a killer makeover that shows her (awesome) breasts and all the boys in the yard (Eduardo) are all 0____0 (description found on delicious). This is brilliant and just so good to read! I love it, love it, love it. Written on the kink meme, though, so there's mistakes here and there, and some parts are better than others. But overall, really good and feeds my genderfuck obsession quite nicely ;)

- Lastly. If any of you haven't started to watch Community yet! DO IT, DO IT, DO IT! BEST SHOW EVER AND I'M NOT KIDDING ABOUT THAT. BEST. SHOW. EVER!

Community is my new favorite thing in the world. How can you not love that show? Thanks to the Fandom March Madness where Troy Barnes emerged victorious and I had no idea who he was, I had to check out his show. Boy, am I glad I did. I'm almost finished watching all the published episodes and I love it. I love how completely shameless this show is. They embrace every trope they might stumble over and just go with it. I LOVE THE IRONIC DRAMA! The characters are so, so great and I laugh til I cry.

Abed and Troy's bromace is a beautiful thing to behold. Britta is like the most awesome woman in the world. I want to be her when I grow up. Annie is lovely and adorable (and mindblowingly supposed to be the same age as me...) and I ship her and Jeff so hard you have no idea. Jeff! I LOVE JEFF AND EVERYTHING HE CHOSES TO BE! He is also my new favorite pretty thing to look at. He's so pretty.

The television meta is fantastic and I LOOOOVE IT! I want friends like this! Friends who will embrace weirdness and just go with it. Your friend want you to walk in slow-mo because it'll look cool? Sure, why not! Your friend lost her pen and is certain that one of you stole it? Strip down and search the whole room until everyone is cleared! Sure! Take paint-ball very, very seriously? HELL TO YEAH!

SO MUCH LOVE FOR THIS SHOW. I WILL LOVE IT FOREVER! &hearts &hearts &hearts
