Game of Thrones trailer: A breakdown:
Another Game of Thrones trailer (they seem to be coming thick and thin these days) meaning another trailer analysis.
So what can we look forward to that hasn’t been covered already?
We can look forward to a speculated sighting of a White Walker taking one of Craster’s sons. Perhaps included as a way to beef up Jon Snow’s season two storyline, which is hugely welcomed. The...

Seeing a pregnant Amy Poehler doing a Sarah Palin rap with the real Sarah Palin bopping along was probably the biggest laugh of the night, however.

Another comedy Friday
Being behind on Modern Family, the funniest out of New Girl, Parks & Rec and 30 Rock this week was hands down:
30 ROCK!!!!
Leap Day was 30 Rock at its best.
Parks & Rec is slightly meh at the moment.
New Girl was passable this week.
Thankfully Comedy Fridays will include Community in a few weeks time!

Apologies for that sweeping generalisation on the population of Dublin in the last post.

Dublin is beginning to wreck my head a bit again. There’s so few genuine people here that it’s hard not to be sucked into that materialistic frame of mind.
I’m looking forward to the much-needed spring break. I’m getting stressed for no reason at all this week.
Looking forward to going out in Drogheda at the weekend. Those nights have been extremely fun recently.

I GOT THE INTERNSHIP
Lancaster here I come!!!!!
JOY!!!!!
Apologies to the person I was complaining about earlier. Tumblr is a public place. I try hard not to be cynical and to stop using StatCounter.
Luckily it’s Lent tomorrow. Another fresh start.
shannomnomnoz asked: Awww, I missed TMI Tuesday!!! Because I give a f***, I'm going to ask in advance of next Tuesday!!!!! If you could, would you have your own sweat lodge?????
Anonymous asked: Do you wish on stars? What do you wish for?
StatCounter is a dangerous thing.
Someone googled my Tumblr name and spent a whole hour going through my archive last Friday.
Paranoid.

Just had an interview for a summer programme in Lancaster University.
They asked me about extra-ing on Game of Thrones since it’s on my CV.
Will it give me the edge? Who knows?
I need this internship.
NEED.

I must point out that the reason why I haven’t watched Arrested Development until this year is because I didn’t care much for TV until LOST began in 2004, and AD premiered the year before. :P

And that's it...
I’ve finished Arrested Development.
The ending was totally in the spirit of the show. I have no qualms with it. It might have been better than it ended there before it become old and stale. Who knows?
I do have an issue with the plans to bring it back. The movie I have no problem with. It would be an excellent way to give the series some closure without the constraints of writing for...

So I’m just after watching that episode of Arrested Development in Season 3 in which:
There are numerous references to the show craving viewers.
Lots of satirical gimmicks like 3D and a live-ending.
References to being considered by HBO and Showtime
I love this show.

It's been a while...
So Tumblr, here is the update on what I did last week:
I was an antibiotics for most of the week, so most activities were restricted to those of the staying-inside variety.
Made a good start to the year’s assignments. Everything going well on that front.
Have a phone interview with Lancaster University on Monday for their statistical research summer internship programme.
Finally watched...
If you can correctly pronounce every word in this...

Too exhausted to finish my Dynamical Systems
But overall that was the most productive day I’ve had in a while, probably because I bought stationery, something that makes me feel super organised and motivated.
But the only equation that concerns me now is:
Me + Tiredness + Headache + Desire to make it to my first Linear Algebra lecture in more than three weeks = bed.
Night all.

ANGRY PAUL IS ANGRY!
Mostly because of that horribly refereed match.
Chelsea did throw it away, admittedly, but they were hugely helped by that giant fucking oaf of a referee.
Prick.

Also realised I will miss the Game of Thrones finale of the second season due to my Germany/potential interrailing plans…

The Third Policeman is the oddest book I’ve ever read, but it’s an extremely good read, and the ending is mind-blowing.
Meanwhile, I must continue The Lies of Locke Lamora (why is that book so goddamn hard to get into??) and start my re-read of A Clash of Kings in time for April 1st.
