strange post that is all over the place DON'T MIND ME

I. The Social Network fandom is taking over my LIFE. I didn't even like the movie that much! But then someone recced a fic and I read it and then another and another and this is getting into full blown obsessive territory.
It's like a mixture of it being quite a good movie, boys being tragic, and Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield being stupidly adorable. Seriously, though, their bromance is the best thing ever. And Andrew Garfield totally ships Eduardo/Mark (and Jesse/himself).

And now I spend my days reading ridiculous fic where Eduardo owns a bakery and it's all about muffins and pony-shaped cookies and SO ADORABLE. Why does this always happen to me.
This fandom is also one of those where RPF isn't looked down on as much (mostly because Jesse and Andrew keep talking about "how did you fall in love with me" and "I love him' and how great Jesse's face is). So idk, usually I'm really not that interested in RPF (I tried to read Bradley/Colin but it made me feel uncomfortable). So I tried again and there have been one or two fics I quite liked because they were really great. So not as anti-RPF as I thought.
I know I have people on my flist who love it and people who hate it, and I guess I'm kind of in the middle? In theory I don't like it at all, but sometimes there'll be a fic to change my mind.

II. I am boring. Nothing else is going on in my life :P. I have a lot of homework which I'm not doing because I prefer reading TSN fic. I've gotten my exam schedule and it's really bad, because I have three exams on three consecutive days :(. The Easter Holiday is basically going to be nothing but writing papers and studying. I hope I'm not as obsessed with this stupid fandom by then because it will not end well.

I'm also slowly still watching The West Wing - I'm at 1x11. I pretty much like all the characters (except possibly Mandy?) and I'm enjoying it.
And Downton Abbey is on belgian tv. I liked the first episode and I'm looking forward to the rest of it.

III. Mad Men got renewed! Yay! And without any cuts in the cast, thank god. I'm working on a big Mad Men post that will probably never be posted, but it is keeping me busy.

I'm not really heavily into TSN fic on account of the fact that I'm scarily mono-fannish (through no choice of my own), but yeah, if I weren't into Merlin still, I'd definitely be into TSN. Jesse and Andrew are adooorable and I just want to squish their faces.

I tend to jump from ship to ship very quickly, so I'll probably be over them in a few months. But yeah, they are both extremely adorable and take the whole bromance thing up to another level :P. And the fic is so good. ;)
