Between Order and Randomness

The End

2007-08-19T13:28:00.001+02:00

I'm quitting this blog for now. Trying to be an awesome blogger in a language that isn't my mother tongue, turns out to be harder than I thought. So I've returned to blogging in Dutch on a Dutch blog portal. I'm keeping this URL though, I might wanna use it later, you never know :)

The Slapstick

2007-08-06T10:02:00.000+02:00

It took me twenty-three years to realize that my Dad and I share a love for slapstick humor. We both laughed out loud when we watched this promo for Ugly Betty. I didn't really wanna watch that show at first, but that promo might've made me change my mind. Is it a show worth watching and is it comparable to other series? Let me know!

Oh, and have I ever told you that Leisha Hailey is freakin' hilarious? Here's the proof:

The Reason

2007-08-01T18:27:00.000+02:00

It's not hard to guess why Life As We Know It got cancelled. The acting isn't that bad, but the storylines are just plain boring. I also hate the continuous tortured looks on Dino's face. However, Dutch television started airing the show a few weeks ago and I keep watching it. Why? Missy Peregrym of course :D She's smokin' hot and she reminds me of a prettier, younger version of Brooke Langton. I can't wait to see her on Heroes. I love Heroes. How can you not love Clea DuVall in her role of tough FBI agent? :D

The Attempt

2007-07-31T13:26:00.000+02:00

I am really trying to get some work done over here! However, my cat feels the need to hide behind my computer and eat the pen I'm writing with whenever she thinks I'm not looking. I'm on to you, cute little diva beeyatch!

The Wedding

2007-07-28T13:16:00.000+02:00

So, I attended my very first lesbian wedding party yesterday. I'm pretty sure I was the only lesbian there, not including the two gorgeous brides of course. However, the mother of one of the brides was all over me. "You're next!" she yelled when I came in. And then she kissed me full on the lips. I guess she was all lezzy-minded on her gay daughter's wedding day :P A little while later she dragged my Mom, her daughter and me onto the dancefloor and happily yelled to my Mom: "Our dyke daughters!" Oh, and she also invited herself to my wedding. Which is fine with me, although being single at the moment might delay things ^^

I love that chicks can get married. I love how they can look gorgeous in their wedding dresses together. I loved watching their first dance. Lesbian love just fucking rules! :D

The Encouragement

"Analysis is the interplay between researchers and data. It is both science and art. (...) Doing research is hard work. It also is fun and exciting. In fact, nothing can compare to the joy that comes from discovery." [source]

Somehow it doesn't feel like I'm creating fun works of art right now. It feels like I'm longing to be on an airplane to Cyprus in four weeks. That is the joy of life after finishing the concept version of my thesis :)

The Dushliciousness

2007-07-14T12:05:00.000+02:00

Being single again does have its advantages. I'm able to watch unlimited amounts of Eliza Dushku without getting nasty comments from a jealous significant other. Yay!

The Order of the Phoenix

2007-07-06T18:51:00.000+02:00

I'm going to see it this Wednesday at exactly midnight. Call me a nerd, but I'm actually really looking forward to it!

The Metamorphosis

2007-07-04T14:27:00.000+02:00

No, technically no one died recently. But when you find out that someone you have loved for nearly two years is actually a self-centered, cheating bitch, you're gonna experience some kind of grief. I hope the five stages of grief work in a chronological order for me, because I'm already in stage four now. Or at least I think so. Sometimes it works best to just laugh about your own misery. Rachel Bilson helps me with that ^^

The Beginning

2007-07-02T10:51:00.000+02:00

This is not my first blog, however, this is my first English blog. After writing in Dutch for a few years, I decided it was time for a change. I need new things in my life and this blog is one of them. So, who am I? I'm a 23-year-old girl from The Netherlands who will soon be able to call herself Master of Science in Entertainment and Popular Culture, which pretty much explains my URL. I'm currently working on my Master's thesis about The L Word (for which I conducted a qualitative study) and I'll complete that in about two months. After that, anything could happen.

For now, I'll use this blog to write about the things that I enjoy and that I feel strongly about. Expect to read about television, movies, music and gayness (in the media). And maybe I'll write about myself every once in a while, too. By the way, my nickname 'Pussyfoot' is not a reference to any kind of porn. Just so you know.

edit July 31, 2007: I changed my nickname to ButchyFemme now. Suits me better, I think.
