Dec. 11th, 2006 07:47 pmThings accomplished today:
1. Handed in finished creative writing project, with cover letter and everything, five minutes before deadline. Yay!
2. Had obligatory panic attack because I couldn't remember where to turn in seminar essay. Not unexpected!
3. Handed in finished seminar essay two hours before deadline. Was first one there, which explains panic attack, resolved when second person there came to hand in her essay. Yay!
4. Painted tea mug at Color Me Mine, because we have nothing to do at work until January and thus it was decreed that we would take today to go paint things and each acquire our own personal tea mug. With money from the keep-workers-happy budget. Because my job and boss are awesome. GREAT YAY!
Therefore, basking in the glow, I join the herd. Unpopular Fandom Opinions meme!
The rules:
01. Post this on your journal.
02. Your friends will comment with some of your fandoms or some general topic about fandom.
03. In a new post (or in comments) respond back with one or two of your unpopular opinions for that fandom or topic.
Caveat: I don't actually know a lot of what's unpopular. Um. So I put a popular opinion by accident, oops?

Date: 2006-12-12 06:50 am (UTC)Yeah. *giggles* I know your feelings about Kevin. To be fair, though, GGK is not great on backstory for any of the five- either he sticks it in to be convenient, or he completely ignores it. (Bitter? Not at all!)
Yeah. Leila is totally a Sue. *cheerful* But the fact that she becomes High Priestess bothers me not so much of that as because of the pattern that is established: it's okay to be High Priestess when you don't have a man! Otherwise, totally go for the sex.
There is really only one moment when I bawl for the lios. - and, okay, I don't mind Ra-Tenniel. But yeah, the rest of them are really incredibly bland. Brendel has no character! At all!
. . . but I'm not so much a fan of the Tolkein elves either, so.
