brokenrecordUgh this girl in my abnormal psych class annoys me SO MUCH because she keeps like... I don't even know how to describe it. Like, we'll be discussing something like asylums and how terrible they were and Bedlam and all that stuff and then she'll raise her hand and the professor will call on her and she'll start talking about how she has issues with asylums and in her medical anthropology class they discussed how terrible asylums were and it's like... THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW. YOU'RE JUST REPEATING WHAT WAS ALREADY SAID. YOU AREN'T CONTRIBUTING ANYTHING. It's so annoying. I don't mind questions or like... helpful contributions, but this is just... saying the same stuff again. Except she talks really slowly and somehow manages to drag it out for like 5 minutes and ugh. And she keeps bringing up her medical anthropology class and it's like... if I wanted to know what you did in medical anthropology, I would take that class myself! gah.
Anyways, something on a positive note, taking my Drugs and Society test today was so cool. There were these scantron sheets for the multiple choice, except they weren't normal scantron sheets where you mark an answer in pencil and then it gets scored by a machine later. Instead, these were like... those scratch lotto cards where you scratch off an answer, it reveals a star if you're right and nothing if you're wrong. And if you're wrong the first time, you can keep scratching until you find the right answer. You get 1 point if you get it on the first try, half a point if you get it on the second, a quarter of a point if you get it on the third, and zero if it takes scratching off all four choices before you get the right answer. He said it wanted to be a learning device so you would see what you were getting right and what was wrong while you take the test and not a week later when you've forgotten everything. It was really cool (at least, in my opinion). And from that, I know that I got 45.25/50 on the multiple choice. Pretty good, considering I didn't end up actually studying for the test (I realized we could drop our lowest test score, so... I just kind of didn't study). The short answer was really easy, too, so I should be getting at least an A- on this test.
So this was going around like a month ago, but I feel like doing it now, so here we go:
Crossover Icons
I mean, kind of. It's the closest thing I have.
Movie Icons
Actors/Actress
Slash
(I take slash to mean any male/male pairing, even though I think some people say it isn't slash if it's canon? I don't really fully understand how the term is used, but this is how I usually see it, or use it.)

Animated
None!
Default Icon
One of my least favorite icons I have in my userpics, actually. It just matches my layout best. But it'll be changing soon, since I'm planning on making a new layout hopefully this weekend.
Oldest Icon
Icons That I Can Stare At All Day
Primarily the last one. The rest are ones I like a lot, but the last one I could truly look at for ages.
Icons That Amuse Me Most
I tend not to make very funny icons. These all amuse me more because of what's going on in the scene (especially the last one) than anything I did to them.
Most Colorful Icons
My icons tend to be very colorful, so I tried to limit this to the most colorful and not just... mostly colorful.
Favorite Icon
This is probably in large part because it's my newest icon (at least that I have uploaded) so I'm not sick of it, and also because of my intense obsession with Farscape and John/Aeryn right now. But I also love the cropping (I'm a big fan of heads in the bottom half, empty space in the top half of an icon, if you hadn't noticed by now) and the color (I think that blue is so pretty). I'm not sure if I like the text or not. Right now I'm leaning towards yes.
I watched the two episodes of Torchwood and I'm going to post about them probably, but first I'm going to watch last night's episode of Eli Stone, the last two weeks of Lost, and the last three weeks of Supernatural (all of which I also may or may not post about).
