This blog is on a semi-permanent hiatus.

I have no idea if I'll ever update it again. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. We'll just have to see.
but yeah, don't expect anything new guys. :P

In the meantime, if you want to know what's going on in my life you can always talk to me in real life or email me. <3

if you don't have my email then we probably aren't very good friends and you shouldn't even be reading this blog anyway...

have a good day everyone! :)

doo wee dooooo



Is this REALLY the first piece of Doctor Who art I've put on here? REALLY?

There's probably a reason for this. The reason being, I'm lazy, and never draw Doctor Who Art. Well, I draw DW doodles, but those hardly count and are often terrible.

Well, this is the Ninth Doctor with Rose Tyler. They are cute, even if I can't draw them properly. :)

Reactions to Doctor Who: Season 6

Season 6 ended forever ago and I'm just NOW doing this. But hey, I'm doing it. That's what counts.
This season is brilliant, though.


Episode 0 (Christmas Special): ADORABLE. This is seriously the most Christmas-y episode. And the Eleventh Doctor is the sweetest here.

Episode 1: Holy. Cow. What is happening-Steven Moffat you HATE me, don't you? Complete denial. I won't accept ANY of this.

Episode 2: STILL IN DENIAL. And the silence are the scariest who-monster ever. LIKE EVER. I live in terrible, agonizing fear of forgetting something now. Thanks a lot, Moffat.

Episode 3: Quite enjoyable. :) And RORY, DUDE. Stop dying, I love you!!! <3

Episode 4: Brilliant episode. LOVE it. Idris is absolutely phenomenal. Can she please be in every episode? I officially ship her and Eleven.

Episode 5/6: Ehh. Necessary, but not my favorite.

Episode 7: Oh my GOODNESS. This episode! Just EVERYTHING.

Episode 8: Plot-hole filler. But I still liked it. And very quotable, for some reason.

Episode 9: I just really like this episode, despite the creepy dolls. Something about the themes in it are just lovely. :)

Episode 10: OH my goodness. This episode is the worst for a Rory/Amy shipper. :'( Fantastic, though. I applaud everyone who worked on this.

Episode 11: interesting... But the end though! :'(

Episode 12: AMAZING. Hilarious, and just wonderful. Stormageddon is officially the best thing in the universe. AND THE ENDING I MEAN HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO ME RIVER??!!

Episode 13: I. Am. Dead. My body is literally a heap on the floor and I am not breathing. But really, HOW CAN THIS EVEN BE REAL. I sobbed twice. I screamed more than once. I hit a pillow. And I clapped for a full 3 minutes, while I was crying. IT'S OFFICIAL. I DIED GUYS.



Now I have to wait for the Christmas Special! So faaaar away....

Extensive Review of The Doctor's Companions

Because Doctor Who has taken over my thoughts, and I literally lose sleep thinking about the companions. I may as well publish my analysis. Oh, and this may be a little spoiler-y. Proceed with caution.

So I'm going to tell you
-My likes about a companion, because I love everyone for different reasons
-My dislikes about a companion, because there are a few things I need to bring up
-What I think they taught the Doctor, because the Doctor is flawed and learns a lot from his companions over the course of the series
-Who I ship them with, because shipping brings joy to my soul



Rose Tyler

Likes: What I adore about Rose is how realistic she is. She isn't skinny, she isn't some fashionista, she's a flirt, she doesn't have great grades, no special talent. She is completely normal.
But when she meets the Doctor, she's found that she's actually capable of amazing things. She is more than capable of saving the entire universe, and she loves it too.
I love how enthusiastic she is about travelling with the Doctor. She had the time of her life out there, and you could tell. You could just tell how much she loved everything, especially him. I LOVE her relationship with the Doctor. You don't know much I ship them.
I love how about unselfish she was. She just wants to save everyone, even her enemies. Even when there's nothing she can do. She didn't even want to kill that Dalek in season 1 episode 6, because even though it was the Doctor's main enemy and it had just killed most of the workers in that building and almost killed Rose herself, she believes in second chances. She wanted to save him, not kill him. Another example: right before Cassandra "died" in The End of the World. That whole episode she was just dishing out hate towards Cassandra, but at the end she sincerely wanted to help her. It was the Doctor who had to tell Rose, "No, there's nothing we can do for her"
Rose never gives up on anyone. She will save the life of her worst enemy. She's the most forgiving character and strangely, a great example for me.

Dislikes: You know, there's not much I don't like about Rose. I guess she's very dependent on the Doctor, but I don't have an issue with that at all...

What she taught The Doctor: When she met the Doctor, he was going through a huge amount of post-traumatic stress from The Time War. I think she really helped the Doctor recover from that. She LOVED traveling around in the TARDIS, and I think that really helped him remember that, yeah, he loved it too. She helped him remember that the universe isn't just flames and war and hate. It's full of beauty and love and magic.

Who I ship her with: I'm a die-hard Doctor/Rose shipper. They are PERFECT. And I believe that their love transcends whatever incarnation he's in, but she was cutest with Ten...


Mickey Smith

Likes: Mickey's character develops A LOT in the show. He's a very loyal member of the team. He will never, ever desert you, or anyone else in need. Mickey isn't brave in the sense that he doesn't get scared, but he's brave because he does what he must in spite of the fact that he's scared. I like that about him. And I really liked the way he stepped out in Season 2. He knew that taking care of his grandmother was more important than traveling around in the TARDIS, and I was proud of him. He's a good man. He's also quite funny. :)

Dislikes: No one really likes having Mickey along. Even The Doctor had given him the title "Mickey, The Idiot". He's always second best, always the fifth wheel. And I feel so bad for him most of the time because everyone treats him horribly. But he is an idiot a lot of the time.

What he taught the Doctor: Even an idiot can save the world. You don't always have to be brave or clever. You simply have to be human.

(Side Note: I love how much the word human means in Doctor Who. It isn't just a species. It's a plethora of fantastic qualities, emotions, and a desire to love, and work to be loved that other species in the universe don't have.)

Who I ship him with: I don't ship anyone with Mickey, just because he's always the fifth wheel when it comes to shipping. I feel bad saying that, but no one on the show was right for Mickey. And can I just say that I hate Mickey/Martha? Absolutely no development, no chemistry, and I swear they don't even talk to each other until they basically announce their marriage. It was totally random and pointless and stupid. It was a complete injustice to both their amazing characters.


Captain Jack Harkness

Likes: Captain Jack is just one of those characters that you can choose to love, or choose to hate. I personally chose to love him (If he was actually on the series for an extended amount of time then I might hate him, but he isn't, so I've learned to look forward to his infrequent appearances on the show.) He's quite funny, and I love how cocky he is. Like he knows that he actually isn't that awesome, but pretends he is anyway. He also has a surprisingly deep character. He's been hurt, had two years of his life swiped from his mind, but he still goes on like he's absolutely fine.

Dislikes: Jack can be a little annoying at times, and a little ridiculous. But I've learned to just facepalm at these moments and move on with my life.

What he taught the Doctor: Hmmm what HAS he taught The Doctor? I don't really know, you guys... there has to be something, but I can't think what. If any of you have an idea, please tell me. This is going to drive me nuts.

Who I ship him with: I don't have a ship for Jack because Jack ships himself with everyone on the show. ;)


Martha Jones

Likes: I love Martha Jones. She is so level-headed and intelligent. She always knows what she's doing. She's clever, and doesn't let her emotions cloud her thinking. Instead, she lets them fuel whatever she's doing. She expects to be respected, which I think is great. She's trustworthy and witty, and spends a lot of her time with the Doctor thinking she's second-best in his eyes. Which totally breaks my heart because she's cool.
AND she's a Harry Potter fan. Thought I'd throw that out there...

Dislikes: The thing I didn't really like about Martha was her relationship with the Doctor. He was constantly comparing her to Rose. She didn't like that, and was a little insensitive about it. And then she HAD to go and fall for him. I don't blame her at all*, but all this drama came WAY too soon after Doomsday, and it just wasn't a healthy relationship AT ALL. I was glad when she left, not because I didn't like her (quite the opposite), but because she recognized how bad things were between them, and how much she needed to move on. INFINITE RESPECT.

*David Tennant is so hot. I would fall for him, too, Martha...

And before I move on, I've heard people complain that "she just isn't Rose" Or "she gets in the way of Rose" I can't stand that. You can't hate someone for not being someone else! That's ridiculous! And she never, not once, got in the way of his love. The Doctor loves Rose with all his heart(s), and he never even showed interest in Martha. That much was obvious. And I really don't think unrequited love makes her any less awesome. Sorry.

What she taught the Doctor: From the very start, Martha unconsciously teaches the Doctor to just slow down, and care (like when she closes the dead man's eyes in Smith and Jones. You could see how much that meant to him). Especially after what he had just gone through in Doomsday I think he had issues with caring about people. I love how Martha was sort of a therapist for the Doctor in season 3.

Who I ship her with: I STILL ship Martha/Riley Vashtee, with a passion. He was the only man who actually had chemistry with her, and they were adorable together. And there were so many good romantic quotes from that episode (42). It's a darn shame there wasn't more of him.


Donna Noble

Likes: UGH this woman is amazing. She is so dedicated to the Doctor, as his best friend. She understands him and his quirks so well, even though she hadn't known him very long. And she needs him as much as he needs her. Also, she's beautiful, she's funny, she's adorable, and she's incredible. She can be so deep and compassionate, too, as is seen in EVERY episode she's in. She's so cute and happy when she goes places, but when it comes to the saving-people part of being a companion, she takes it so seriously and feels so much for people. She's the most important woman in the whole of creation and is totally humble about it, which just makes her more amazing. And the tragedy of her story makes it one of the best, in a heart-wrenching way. She and Rose are my favorite companions.

Dislikes: DONNA IS FLAWLESS, GUYS. I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING.

What she taught the Doctor: She and the Doctor had so much fun together. They loved being around each other. It was adorable. But as far as deep meaningful life lessons go, I think she showed him passion. Passion for saving people, and things and just a general sense of right and wrong. Donna had so much integrity. She wanted so much to save everyone and do what's right. I think he really got a sense of that and admired her for it.

Who I ship her with: Donna/Lee McAvoy, her husband in Forest of the Dead. He was absolutely perfect for her, and I think she was perfect for him. I cried my heart out when he called to her and she just didn't hear.... And now she'll never know he was real. (brb crying more)


Amy Pond

Likes: I love Amy. For one, she's gorgeous; for two, she's scottish; and for three, her character is very well developed. She starts off being a cute little girl who isn't afraid of anything, turns into a jerky mc-jerkface whom I hated, then turns into a totally AWESOME young woman who knows what she wants and has a totally romantic storyline. She's absolutely beautiful and adorable. She has just the right amount of cheek. And she has such great chemistry with both her "poncho boys", Rory and Eleven. You can totally see how much she loves both of them, especially Rory. She is a fantastic edition to Team TARDIS, and I can't imagine The Eleventh Doctor traveling with anyone else.
Also, she always has perfect style, perfect hair, and perfect nail polish. It's awful how beautiful she is sometimes...

Dislikes: Not to dwell on the negative or anything, but she was a jerky mc-jerkface before Amy's Choice. I honestly hated her for a while. She had this really attractive and awesome boyfriend, yet she obviously didn't care about him at all since she was willing to cheat on him. She didn't seem to have any good qualities, other than maybe being pretty. (which just made me more angry for some reason.) She was honestly very stupid and mean. She never smiled, and was very immature. And she made me not want to watch DW anymore. But luckily, I kept going and by her 7th episode she lost all those qualities that made me hate her and became totally awesome... thank goodness.

What she taught the Doctor: I think Amy showed the Doctor how easy it is for time travel to mess everything up. He messes up her life SO many times. But luckily, he realizes this and fixes everything.
Though if I'm being honest, she learns so much more from him than he does from her. That might be a part of why I like her.

Who I ship her with: Amy/Rory 4ever! Amy didn't really deserve him at first, because she was a jerk, BUT as time went on she really worked hard to be worthy of him, which makes me really proud of her. By the time we reach the season 5 finale, they are absolutely flawless together.


Rory Williams

Likes: I am in love with Rory Williams. I don't think you understand; Rory is the best, most perfect-est person ever. He can do pretty much anything, punch everyone, stuff Hitler in a closet, and come back from the dead as many times as he wants. I'm not even kidding, he's died so many times. And yet, he never ever dies. His love for Amy makes him invincible. Speaking of his love for Amy, his dedication to her is the BEST! He loves her SO MUCH, guys. It's so cute.
And I'm just a babbling fangirl, and can give no coherent thoughts. Ignore me.

Dislikes: Nothing. LIVE WELL, LOVE RORY.

What he taught the Doctor: Life is wibbley-wobbley, Doctor. You can die and turn into a Roman just like that. Anything, LITERALLY ANYTHING is possible. Especially if you're Rory Williams, the manliest and most attractive man ever to live...
Okay, I'm just making stuff up. I'm a fangirl, and I can't think clearly when he inhabits my thoughts. It's not my fault.

Who I ship him with: Amy/Rory. I mean, duh, they are meant to be. And even though Amy didn't deserve him at first, he loved her SO MUCH that he totally deserved her. I mean, he waited 2000 years for her. That's so romantic that anything else is invalid.


River Song

Likes: RIVER'S HAIR. HER HAIR IS THE BEST EVER. No but seriously, what I really like about River is the emotions Alex Kingston is able to portray, without really saying anything about her own future. The first time you meet her, you don't know River at all, and thus aren't sure whether you should care about what she goes through or not. But then, you slowly get to know her. You may or may not dislike her as you gradually see her grow more immature (it makes sense if you watch it, trust me). I personally, couldn't stand her at first. But over time, I got to see why she acted the way she did, and she managed to win my heart. And that's really a testimony to Alex's acting. She somehow portrays her character's growth backwards and forwards and all topsy-turvy. I don't know how she does it. (Sometimes, I think I just need to watch all the DW episodes in "River Song-order", to see if I can better understand her.) Now, The Forest of the Dead is one of the most emotional episodes I can watch. I've just grown to really understand her, and I start tearing up whenever she talks about her Doctor, the one who loves her as much as she loves him. I love hearing her talk about him.

Dislikes: I didn't like River at first because of the way she tended to treat the Doctor. (mostly in Flesh and Stone) She acted like she owned him, and like she was used to having him adore her. I really didn't like it. And I couldn't stand her smug little smile when she alluded to something happening in the future. I still can't bring myself to rewatch that episode, but by the time we see her next, in The Pandorica Opens, she knows him a little bit less. Because of that, she doesn't act like she's the boss of him anymore. She's more like he's a close friend, which was a lot better.
Another thing I don't like is the way every BIG revelation has to do with her. I sometimes wish the show had her more as a character than a plot device. But at the same time, she makes such a great plot device...

What she taught the Doctor: "You are loved, by so many and so much, and by no one more than me" Do I even need to say more?!? The Doctor is so full of self-loathing, especially the Eleventh One. He doesn't even want to think about his past, because he's so convinced that he's ruined everyone's lives. But he couldn't be more wrong! He has saved so many people, shown so many how to really live their lives and truly love. HE IS LOVED, and sometimes I just want to grab his shoulders and yell that in his face. So when River did it for me, I got a little teary-eyed. Good on ya, Professor Song.

Who I ship her with: Hmmm I want to say The Eleventh Doctor, but that ship is so unstable I don't know if I can. Their timelines are so messed up. Sometimes he loves her, sometimes he doesn't, and vice versa. It's so wibbley-wobbley timey-wimey. I can't see it ever working.
Not that it necessarily needs to work out between them. By all means, most of my ships don't work out, but I still feel like they can't ever be truly happy together.
But I do love hearing River talk about how much she loves him. It's adorable.
So sometimes I like River/Eleven, sometimes I don't. But I'm not against it in any way.


This has been a VERY long review of each of the Doctor's companions. :)

Reactions to Doctor Who: Season 4 and Season 5

I'm so behind on this... I've already started season 6. Not that any of you actually read this, because none of you are into Doctor Who anyway. But I will fix that, if I can. ;)
Oh and by the way, if you intend on watching this show sometime in your life, DO NOT let anyone spoil it for you. Not me, not wikipedia, not anyone.

I don't think I include any spoilers, though. Just opinions that don't make sense to anyone because they've never seen the show. The only reason I publish these is to increase Doctor Who awareness among my friends. :)


Season Four

Episode 0 (Christmas special): This episode should've been lonely, but it wasn't, thanks to Astrid. Good girl. You would've made a good companion, but I'm glad you weren't one. It'd be too complicated for poor Ten, I think. His emotions are already a mess.

Episode 1: DONNA!!!! From the moment you told us what you've been doing since your wedding day, I knew you'd make a fantastic companion... Okay, I love you so much you don't even know. You are hilarious and amazing and sweet and awesome gush gush gush gush....

Episode 2: I like this episode because, for once, the doctor goes back a little further than his usual 1800's-onward thing. I enjoy it a lot when he explores ancient history. But it is a little sad, what ends up happening...

Episode 3: Mixed feelings. This episode is so melancholy, yet it showcases Donna's compassion so well. Did I mention how much I love Donna? Oh yeah, I did....

Episode 4/5: Only The Doctor could set the whole sky on fire... Good episodes, but not my favorites.

Episode 6: I was so distracted this whole episode, because Jenny is actually engaged to David Tennant in real life. So whenever he looked at her/touched her shoulder/talked to her I'd freak out and be like "OH THEY'RE SO IN LOVE!!" when, in the episode, he was supposed to be her father. It was a little ridiculous of me, I'll admit. But Jenny is soooo cute with him, I can't help it. :P

Episode 7: LOVE this era. The whole wasp plot was a little weird, even for Doctor Who though. Oh well, it's still good. :)

Episode 8/9: One of the more scary/mysterious episodes. River was...interesting. (I have a lot to say about River, but I will spare you all for now.) Much crying, much broken heart-ness, and much being scared of the dark--basically how I sum this episode up. [Oh my goodness, Donna and her never-was husband made me cry so much. This show makes me so emotional...]

Episode 10: This episode make me terrified of playing copy-cat. SERIOUSLY, so scared. alkgletjlhnaega thanks a lot, doctor who, for making me scared of something totally NOT scary at all. This has happened so many times before, though. I could make a giant list of ordinary things that scare the living daylights out of me now, because of this show.

Episode 11: Oooh might be my favorite episode. It's basically a "what could've been" episode. And it's amazing, because it really shows how important Donna is. Even though she doesn't think so herself, she's special. And I loooove her. And the other companion in this episode... (scream, flip around, scream, freak out, etc)

Episode 12: You guys, never read any spoilers, because I think I didn't feel a fraction of the emotions that I should have while watching this. Lesson learned: Spoilers should be avoided at all costs.

Episode 13: The season finale TO END season finales. They made this SO epic, but my being spoiled just ruined all of this for me... :'( Still, it was good to see the story unfold and fit together, I guess. And to see everyone back together made me really happy. :)

The Season 4 Specials

Christmas Special: Hilarious, and cute, and a little sad. Don't have much more to say... I liked it? But I like all of this show, so that's no surprise to anyone.

Easter Special: There's so much to love about this. And I think, if I met David Tennant, I'd act EXACTLY like Malcom. Except I'd be crying, and I'd never let him leave. EVER.

Autumn Special: WHY IS THIS SHOW SO EMOTIONAL ALL THE TIME!!!! Totally cried buckets during this. why DW??

Christmas Special (part 1): You know everything I said about The Master? I take ALL of it back. This man has reached an Azula-level of craziness, and I LOVE it. I officially accept him as a ridiculously good arch-nemesis of The Doctor. Congratulations, John Simm.

New Years Special (part 2): His last one. Oh my gosh, if I thought I cried buckets two episodes ago, I clearly didn't know what was coming during THIS episode. All the emotion TOTALLY made up for what I felt was missing during episode 12/13. I cried just as much as I did during the season 2 finale, and that finale set a crying-personal record for me. These last two episodes were definitely the best way to end it though. :'(

Season Five

Episode 1: Everything, everything is different. The Doctor, the TARDIS, the theme song, everything. And it kind of upsets me, but I need to get over it. This episode is really good. Rory = love so if I have him I should be fine. But I do have a lot of adjusting to do.

Episode 2: Weird episode, but I gained a fraction of a percent of respect for Amy during it. Which was difficult for me, because Amy was such a jerk during the first episode. It was really hard for me to understand why The Doctor wanted her for a companion. But this episode really helped me see that she wasn't a complete jerk face, and that was good.

Episode 3: Good ole' Daleks. They never, ever die. I don't know why they're so afraid of extinction... They're pretty much as immortal as The Doctor is. But you know what? I didn't really feel like Eleven was The Doctor at all until this episode. I guess the Daleks being there reminded me that he is the same guy. This is the same show, and I think watching this really was what helped me adjust to all this new-ness.

Episode 4/5: Amy is terrible in these episodes. I was so mad at the end of episode 5 because I worked really hard to like her, to appreciate her as a companion and try to understand her and she just BLOWS it all up in my face. Also, I hate River in these two episodes. She SO full of herself, she think she can do anything, and that The Doctor should worship her and we totally don't know her at all so she can just stop now, thanks. (for the record, both Amy and River turn really cool in future episodes, but I can't stand them in these two episodes. Venting over now)

Episode 6: I live a Rory Williams-appreciation life. I mean, he is just the cutest. And I'm so glad The Doctor realized the damage he did, and was able to correct it. Good Eleven.

Episode 7: REALLY GOOD EPISODE. Amy has officially gained my respect during this episode, plus I have a new ship. <3

(ship as in relationship, for those who don't know. It's basically a couple I support in the series)

Episode 8/9: Love love and more love. I'm just really starting to love this new trio. They are so cute and capable and I'm pretty happy with where the show is going. It's just starting to feel right again.

Episode 10: I swear, Doctor Who's favorite thing to do is make me cry. I don't know why, but this whole thing is just so... I can't even put it into words. Just beautiful, I guess, but so much more.

Episode 11: This episode has it ALL. It's hysterical, romantic, a little bit scary, cute, funny, and kind of perfect. I can't even tell you how amusing The Doctor is in this episode. He is the epitome of quirky, and it's absolutely hilarious. This might be one of my favorites, actually.

Episode 12/13: Love this finale. It wasn't as epic as past season finales, but it was perfect for the season. Everything just happened the way it should happen. Rory is the single most wonderful boyfriend anyone could ever ask for. He is PERFECT. I was so happy at the end of this.
