I seriously believe that episodes like these ones are made for us to appreciate the <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0595590/" target="_blank">Moffat </a>written episodes more. Seriously. Take<i> <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2284610/" target="_blank">S07x E08 The Rings of Akhaten</a>, </i>good build up, nice story, good melodies, great epic sacrifice attempt by <i>The Doctor</i>, amazing speech story to stop all the other stories.... and what? It's the insignificant leaf of <i>Clara </i>that saves the day? Come on!!! Steven Moffat would have never let that happen if that was his episode, you just know the expect epic-ness at an epic level with him. That really pissed me off, right there. I swear I got goose bumps when <i>Doctor </i>made his speech, I was sitting at the edge of my seat and then.. puff!<br />

Maybe his story filled the '<i>God' </i>99.99999% and <i>Clara's </i>leaf of <i>possibility theory</i> just tipped it off? That brilliant insight belongs to my brother, I cannot be that positive about the plot, I'm sorry Mr. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0189232/?ref_=tt_ov_wr" target="_blank">Neil Cross</a>, I'm sure you're very talented but that moment in the episode was just not <i>Doctor </i>material. The episode that's gonna air on the 20th <i><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2267332/" target="_blank">Hide</a> </i>is his work too, we'll see if he can make it up to us. It looks like it's going to be a horror episode and I love those only in <i>Doctor Who</i>. Let's hope it won't be in 420 state of mind. *<i>winks</i>*<br />

<br />
Another very big thing that bothered me was the visual effects. <i>Doctor Who</i> has very successfully been a science fiction series that does not involve a lot of complicated effects and that is how every episode had been written accordingly. The 'space craft' scenes and such were so unnecessary that as soon as we saw them, the very first thing we said was 'we do not need these kind of things to decrease the quality of this amazing show'. I mean the only and most advanced effect <i>Doctor Who</i> needs and has is the appearance/disappearance of <i>The Tardis</i>. Hope Mr. Cross haven't made that mistake in the next episode.<br />
<br />
As for the newest episode, <i><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2267312/" target="_blank">S07 x E09 Cold War</a> </i>they made up the trailer to be a whole 'nother level of epic-ness but in the end it didn't even add up to something, I feel like the plot is still hanging in there waiting for us to watch the next bit, except... there is no bit left. And that's the second time <i>Clara </i>doesn't feel like she fits in here. She was good as The Souffle Girl and okay in The Snowmen but not the other episodes. She just doesn't feel like a good match for The Doctor. Maybe that is because we had pretty awesome companions in the past... In my <a href="http://madgirlwithablog.blogspot.com/2013/04/doctor-in-digital-age.html" target="_blank">previous post</a>, I've talked about <i>The Doctor</i>'s transition and how he fit, because of all that, I strongly believe <i>Clara </i>is not a good fit for the current <i>Doctor's 'character'.</i><br />

And please someone tell me that <i>Clara</i>'s clothing is some kind of reference to something, please. Because if not, someone in the costume department must have some sort of hatred towards poor Jenna to dress her like she have been in the past two episodes. But I must say I am loving<i> Doctor</i>'s new purple jacket.<br />
<br />
Ok, enough with the negativeness. I actually truly really love this show, any kind of criticism comes from the advanced devotion I feel towards it. Any other thing that ı don't talk about, I love.<br />
<br />
Small remarks from the episodes:<br />
<br />
The Rings of Akhaten: Clock that is called grandfather?... A... <i>grandfather clock</i>? Nice *<i>winks</i>*<br />
<br />
The Rings of Akhaten: Doctor's epic speech... I must admit it was very well thought - until it wasn't - but I would have wished to hear one or two of <i>Doctor's </i>adventures that we never heard of. Those would have been epic on their own, without <i>Clara</i>'s leaf. And music/melody to accompany it is just right..<br />

I loved the first movie that it would be really saddening to see Abrams making a sequel just have been made one. I really hope it's better than it's <i>action-filled</i> trailer.</div>

For me, season 5 never happened. In any case, that was the end of everything <i>Fringe </i>n out lives. (Well except for my ring tone of the theme music, I don't see myself hating that an time soon :) )</div>

<br />
Now that the first images from the set of <i>Catching Fire</i> are released on <a href="http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/01/09/this-weeks-cover-catching-fire/?ew_packageID=20419951" target="_blank"><i>Entertainment Weekly</i></a>, the producers officially started the buzz for the screening on November, 22nd. With Jennifer Lawrence's Oscar nomination on top of, Golden Globe award, I think now is just about time to remind everyone that her new movie is on the way.<br />
<br />

No trailer or anything yet but the logo is revealed for the movie and it made me have goosebumps. There is also a poster version of it <a href="http://www.seat42f.com/the-hunger-games-catching-fire-motion-poster.html" target="_blank">here</a>, but it starts the music right away so I didn't want to surprise you with the sound.<br />

It's not all that different than the first book. Literally. Since it's the 75th year of <i>The Hunger Game</i>s and every 25 years something special is prepared, this year<i> President Snow </i>decides to have all the previous champions compete among each other. So that he could have <i>Katniss </i>killed without doing it outright. It's again preparation for the Games and again, <i>Katniss</i> goes in thinking I must save <i>Peeta </i>and <i>Peeta </i>thinking I must save <i>Katniss</i>, nothing different really, except I'm looking forward to the arena this time. As we can see the <i>Game Makers</i>' point of view in the movie, I think we might see some cool Augmented Reality shots again. The arena this time is the center of attention, I hope they will give importance to that, I'm really excited to see the works of the arena and how the tributes figure out the details.<br />

This time though there aren't greedy, vein children at play but old champions so , there is more maturity - excluding <i>Finnick </i>of course. Ah, <i>Finnick</i>, the charming, flirtatious, handsome man every movie and/or book needs. In the book there is nothing but harmless attraction but it appears there is more to see of <i>Finnick </i>in the movie. As he is on the cover of the <i>EW </i>magazine. Yet another pretty face to drive fan-girls crazy, eh?<br />
After the first movie we somewhat know what is going on, why there are the <i>Games</i>, and the works of the <i>Games</i>, but <i>Catching Fire</i> is more about the alliance between tributes and their actions starting up the mutinies in the <i>Districts</i>. They put the uprising in <i>District 11</i> in the first movie so, a little bit of the excitement died for me.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgenK7RF51yiUylADF2CuxC94GdwtMdjZ_FoXbScwLmeA7Tlq8Jb3gNjVIsaTCCEShrFryGR5miImLeV8AmxIxd82Wia19mABgBIWNvLAkj5xc5Arz5DZRnrj2fiDSsGF1pmGvNbnfI-pxh/s1600/Hunger+games+catching+fire+haymitch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgenK7RF51yiUylADF2CuxC94GdwtMdjZ_FoXbScwLmeA7Tlq8Jb3gNjVIsaTCCEShrFryGR5miImLeV8AmxIxd82Wia19mABgBIWNvLAkj5xc5Arz5DZRnrj2fiDSsGF1pmGvNbnfI-pxh/s200/Hunger+games+catching+fire+haymitch.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
At the very end of the book we see that <i>Haymitch </i>has not been sitting idle by, but plotting the uprising outside of the arena... The tributes find a glitch in the sky of the arena, find an escape route and there is <i>Haymitch </i>rescuing them with a hover craft. The exciting part is when Katniss opens her eyes and find herself in <i>District 13</i>, a <i>District </i>that was thought to have been destroyed, when they stood up to the <i>Capitol </i>years ago. I'm not sure how much they'll show <i>District 13</i> in the movie, but since this is not a Part 1 of a sequel, they might show a little, but more than just a glimpse.<br />
Looking at that pictures though, just makes me angry that <i>Cinna </i>won't be a part of this, his styles is <i>Katniss</i>' cover 'hobby' to make her look like she has not been sitting around and doing nothing. Also his designs are what inspire people and make her the <i>Mockingjay</i>, I'm looking forward to see how they altered that into the movie. Another alteration that is likely to effect the plot is that, after the 74th Games, <i>Peeta's </i>leg and <i>Katniss</i>' ear are injured severely so they have to be surgically mutated. And this effects <i>Peeta's </i>movement in the arena. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing how they made it in the movie but not all that excited I must say...<br />

This time around it's not surviving <i>The Hunger Games</i> that matters but the repercussions of their actions. It's not escaping <i>The Hunger Games </i>alive, but facing <i>President Snow</i>'s words and influence against them that will cause the most hardship for them. Not to mention that wealthy <i>Districts </i>do and believe whatever <i>President</i> tells them to, so that doesn't help them at all. He will do whatever he can to kill the hope to a minimum where he can control, just as in <i>The Games</i>.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
What I fear is, since Liam Hemsworth got so much attention for his tiny but big role as <i>Gale</i>, they are plotting the love-triangle for the other movies. It's clear the images below go together during the promotion of <i>Hunger Games</i> in<i> District 12</i>.<br />

<br />
Honestly, I'm a little rusty on the details of the actual <i>Game </i>scenes, as it has been over a year since I read the book, but I don't plan on reading until the movie either. As I said before, expecting the movie to be loyal to the book only results in disappointment here, so no expectations no disappointment, right?<br />
<br />
<br />
There is also a game of HG, it's called <a href="http://www.thehungergamesadventures.com/" style="font-style: italic;" target="_blank">The Hunger Games Adventures</a><i>. </i>I don't care much about the game, I don't like the fact that you have to play it on Facebook if you don't have an iPad and it's not very user friendly or challenging but it has a very accurate map of <i>Panem </i>for those who are wondering about the <i>Districts </i>and their placements.<br />

Well I have, and I didn't even know there were going to be movies! One of my friends recommended it for me, than a year later I found her mail mentioning the books and picked up the first one, on the third day I was climbing walls, eager and sad to finish the third one. <br />
<br />
When people heard I've read the books, almost all of them asked how were them and if they had to read the books before seeing the movie. Well...<br />

You can look at it this way, the book and movie are in the same universe but somehow an alternative version. It's almost like the book is the original and the movie is a fan-fiction of it. Because as well as changing some of the most crucial parts of the story, they also cross combine stories from the other books. <i>For example (SPOILER) since we only see Panem through Katniss' eyes, we never see and know anything that Katniss doesn't, so Presidents talks with the Game Maker, the mutiny starting in District 11 after Rue's death.We don't learn about the mutinies until the end of Catching Fire. So that changes how you perceive things. (END of SPOILER)</i><br />

You understand how the world got to its current point, the reasons for the <i>The Hunger Games</i> and why everybody is sending their children without question to die. That's all in the book, in the movie those parts are mentioned only in the introduction in the very beginning and even knowing the plot, I was confused with the brief information they gave.<br />
<br />
And if you watch the movies without the books, I'm sure you'll enjoy them very much. It doesn't have the superficial Hollywood, filtered-camera feel to it. It's on the verge of being an independent movie. When some time had passed after I read the books, I watched it again and had a great time. However if you watch them with the expectation of it being loyal to the books, then you are in for disappointment. I wish I would have known it would be different than the book because throughout the movie all I did was wait for my favorite parts of the book and when they didn't deliver I was left high and dry.<br />
<br />
So be prepared I you liked the movie and picked up the books, the second movie may not live up to your expectations but that does not mean it'll be bad.<br />

<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1392170/" style="text-align: center;" target="_blank">The Hunger Games (2012)</a> - As for the interpretation of the general plot of the book, I think I envisioned <i>Katniss</i> and <i>Gale</i>'s relationship as more of a genuinely close friends than the obvious affection they both have toward each other I think they are just preparing for a love triangle in the squeal, between <i>Katniss, Peeta</i> and <i>Gale</i> However in the book <i>Gale</i> has unresolved attraction towards <i>Katniss, Peeta </i>is plain in love with her and have been since very little, but he keeps away from her as it turned out that she was not interested in him during <i>The Games</i>, only obeying <i>Haymitch's </i>orders to get sponsors. All through this, <i>Katniss</i> stays indifferent to anyone but is effected deeply that she lost her friendship with <i>Gale</i> Now that, as the champions they live in luxury when their District is suffering with poverty and hunger.<br />
Even though I am such a sucker for romance and liked the scenes between <i>Katniss</i> and <i>Peeta</i> during The Games Season (Team <i>Peeta </i>all the way.) I'd liked that Katniss is the only one who does not concern her self with romance. She doesn't even admit her love for <i>Peeta</i> until the very last page of the third book.<br />
As for the actual Games, I was imagining something different, yes a controlled environment but not exactly as in the movie. The hardship of<i> The Games </i>wasn't shown that good in the movie, in the book I was thirsty as <i>Katniss</i> got thirsty and hurting when she was hurt many times. For those who doesn't remember <i>Peeta</i>'s leg and <i>Katniss' </i>ear injuries are so severe that they had to be surgically altered; <i>Peeta</i> has a prosthetic leg that limits his movement and mentioned very much in the second book, I guess they didn't see things through there.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyA0B6M3OVfURzYwMCGQ0aOtm0tqSjsNxsuZ4mc9WrsCXKNBT74U6XpSdiYvFl8wmeU6yZWL5jp5-iHhqYhCkJYPZ-LeoU39TKx81mFf7akZdlso-lKm98qW1Uy5VxaO_0u0FyRCCPo2uh/s1600/HQ-Cinna-Haymitch-Peeta-Still-People.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyA0B6M3OVfURzYwMCGQ0aOtm0tqSjsNxsuZ4mc9WrsCXKNBT74U6XpSdiYvFl8wmeU6yZWL5jp5-iHhqYhCkJYPZ-LeoU39TKx81mFf7akZdlso-lKm98qW1Uy5VxaO_0u0FyRCCPo2uh/s320/HQ-Cinna-Haymitch-Peeta-Still-People.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
Another big alteration they did and bummed me real hard was the death of <i>Cinna</i>, played by Lenny Kravitz. I think he was absolutely great for the part but they killed him. <i>Katniss</i> is supposed to keep in touch with <i>Cinna </i>as he help <i>Katniss</i> become the <i>Mockingjay </i>icon with his designs. If I had to choose one thing, that would be <i>Cinna's </i>death that I was angry about the movie. And he was one of my favorite characters too.<br />

The cast for the movie is very rich: Jennifer Lawrence (<i>Katniss Everdeen</i>), Josh Hutcherson (<i>Peeta Mellark</i>), Liam Hemsworth (<i>Gale Hawthorne)</i>, Woody Harrelson (<i>Haymitch Abernathy</i>), Lenny Kravitz (<i>Cinna</i>), Elizabeth Banks (<i>Effie Trinket</i>), Stanley Tucci (<i>Caesar Flickerman</i>), Donald Sutherland (<i>The President</i>).. But I'm afraid they are going to add more parts in the movies, that are only in for the actors. As Donald Sutherland's <i>President </i>is almost non-existent in the first book and, Stanley Tucci's character was just put to help along with the plot where, <i>Katniss </i>thinks something in the book, Tucci speaks in the movie. However with all the interviews I watched or came across magazines the lead actors interaction with each other is hilarious! If you're not a fan of Jeennifer Lawrence, I bet she can change you mind after an interview or two, she is just so natural and herself that I can't help but have a girly crush on her.<br />
<br />
On a fun and exciting note, look at the real life height difference between the actors and how they are portrayed in the movie.. Also all three of them have the opposite hair color in the movie. It's good to see that they go the extra mile on some things, at least.<br />

Although I don't think any special could compare to the special two years ago, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1672218/" target="_blank"><i>S06xE00</i> '<i>A Christmas Carol</i>'</a>.

I thought, as a villain, they were a good idea, the way they emerge and their creepiness was perfect, but felt like there was something not fitting in their nature. They're feeding off of memory but you can't on purpose un-think of something can you? The Snowmen. Imagine them melting. Okay. They melt. Oh good they are gone. Who is gone? The Snowmen! Back to the beginning. The 'source' of the Snowmen was very cool though. There is nothing Sir Ian McKellen's voice cannot give life to.<br />

It was a very good touch that <i>The Doctor</i> was deeply effected by <i>Amy </i>and <i>Rory's </i>deaths. He always gets effected when letting go a companion but when they die or some sort, he gets very vulnerable. In the prequel he did keep on saying 'I don't do this anymore'. Just like in the real episode, he retreated to his cocoon in the clouds, watching the world go by.</div>

The ladder to <i>The </i><i>Tardis </i>was very clever, finally <i>The Doctor </i>doesn't leave <i>The Tardis </i>lying around for it to get in trouble. Which brings us to T<i>he Tardis</i>. Not just some writings, the whole interior is changed! First I thought how come did it change, Tardis is linked to <i>The </i><i>Doctor </i>only changes with him regenerating but then I thought, in the time since the <i>Ponds</i>' death, <i>The </i><i>Doctor</i>'s personality changed too. He is brooding, sulking, blaming himself for their death and he's not really aware of himself, and a little gloomy just like the new Tardis. I must admit I liked the old <i>The </i><i>Tardis </i>better but I bet I'll get used to this new one in no time.<br />

<br />
Just like <i>The Tardis</i> the intro is changed too. I'm not sure how I feel about it, I liked the old, tradition way with little changes every year but this is unlike anything of the 2005 series. I don't hate it but I've always liked the idea of <i>The Tardis </i>travelling and getting beat<br />
up in the wormhole, so I'm conflicted right now.<br />

What I like mostly about Matt Smith is, his weird reactions to things. In this episode we see many of them and we see him changing moods in seconds. Seeing himself in the mirror wearing the bowtie was amazing. One second he is lost in his mind again, not even aware that he started wearing the bowtie, as I did notice he wasn't wearing it in the beginning of the episode. And with <i>Clara's </i>'It's cooler' remark, he is back to the silly <i>The </i><i>Doctor </i>we know, back to saying 'Bowties are cool!', which normally they're not but on him... they are.<br />

All in all it wasn't really a Christmas Special was it? It is the first Christmas Special since the series started again in 2005 that a Christmas themed episode wasn't the 0th episode of a season. It was solely about Jenna-Louise Coleman's character, whoever she was, she is <i>Clara </i>the barmaid and the governess but she is also The Souffle Girl, in the <i>Dalek</i>? I can't figure out how Mr. Moffat will link those two together but apparently they <i>are </i>linked together because <i>Clara </i>says the same last words as <i>Oswin </i>'Run you clever boy. And remember.'<br />
<br />
Best quote of the episode is no wonder when <i>Clara </i>asks why he chose her to be his companion, he says:<br />
"<u>I never know why, I just know who.</u>"<br />
And gives her the key to <i>The Tardis</i> again. I won't be surprised if we see <i>Clara </i>or whatever will be her name, uses the key to enter <i>The Tardis </i>in the future episodes.<br />
<br />
It is no mystery that we will see <i>The Souffle Girl</i> again, but in which way, I can't estimate. But I must regretfully admit, the 'coming soon' part did not make me that much excited as the previous years. But when it comes to <i>Doctor Who</i>, I don't mind being wrong.<br />

Merry Christmas everyone!! I don't celebrate Christmas for its religious
meaning but I still love it. I think this is becoming a tradition with me but if there are any of you who are at home
browsing right now or, like me, alone in their dorm room.....<br />

It was as expected awesome, the story however was truly '<i>unexpected</i>'. I would have thought Peter Jackson would stay more loyal to <i>The Hobbit</i> but what I think happened was he thought this series of movies would be the last of Tolkien's work to ever be filmed, so he worked a lot of little stories from <i>The Silmarillion</i> into the plot of <i>The Hobbit</i>. I liked it.<br />

There were too much long-looks, too much detail given at times than necessary and scenes felt a little stretched out. Which doesn't bother me really, if there were to be made extended versions of the movies I would've preferred them anyway but I believe it may effect the general critique of the movie.<br />
The most excited I was about the movie was the effects have definitely were up to and more than our expectation. It feels like special effects, visual effects, costume and make-up Academy Awards are not a miss this year. Directing and movie nominations are a maybe. I don't know much about the acting, Richard Armitage (Thorin) or Andy Serkis (Gollum) may get nominations, that's a maybe too. Sorry to Martin Freeman but I hear he has 2 more movies to prove himself in the role of <i>Bilbo Baggins</i>.<br />

That is another thing Peter Jackson confirmed <i>The Hobbit </i>to be a trilogy. He says they decided to turn the two movies into three movies after the post-production, as in the video blogs of the production he referred them being two movies. There are talks about him milking the one book but I think it may turn out to be a good thing to include the <i>The Silmarillion</i> stories. they did spend an awful lot of time on those scenes and fights were indeed worthy. I think he is doing a lot to make the true fans happy as there are many many characters in the movies just to make one last tribute to them. Old <i>Bilbo</i> (Ian Holm), <i>Frodo </i>(Elijah Wood), <i>Elrond </i>(hugo Weaving), <i>Galadriel </i>(Cate Blanchett), <i>Saruman </i>(Christopher Lee) - who, couldn't come to New Zeland due to his very old age, so Peter Jackson came to him in London to shoot his part of the Rivendell scenes- weren't really essential in the scenes.<br />

Additionally Radagast who is not even in the book himself, is playing a good part of informing <i>Gandalf </i>of <i>The Necromancer</i>. I guess they are going to get back to <i>Necromancer </i>in the other two movies because Benedict Cumberbatch is listed as the voice of him in all of the movies. As well as the voice of <i>Smaug</i>, the dragon.<br />
<br />

In the story at the beginning I was afraid we would see him but we saw only his breath of fire (which by the way looked a lot like fire catapults) and at the very last scene his eye. I was really afraid something frightening was going to happen at the end because of the 3D, his eye looked really really big, don't you think?<br />
<br />
All in all as a very hard core fan of anythong to do with Lord of the Rings, I liked it and I think it was worth the time and money Peter Jackson put into The Hobbit.<br />
<br />
Lego has designed special Hobbit pieces and the pictures were too cute not to include in here, so here are some of them, if you type in <i>'lego the hobbit actors</i>' into Google there are all of them in the images.<br />

And lastly the very first image of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is released. also some of the official posters include some scenes from the next movies. I can hardly wait another year for the movie but since I don't want them to end too fast so I'm in really deep dilemma :)<br />

In the introduction to the 'mini-sodes' as Matt Smith calls the mini episodes, he hints that as we will officially be introduced to Jenna-Louise Coleman. And apparently we will have to forget about the encounter we had with her in the <i>Asylum of Daleks</i> because this time she come back with a completely new character unrelated to the one she had played before. Yeah, I know it's confusing.<br />

Nothing much drastic but judging from the image there will be Galifreyan writings along the walls.<br />
<br />
Not gonna give any spoilers, just that the villains <i>Snowmen </i>look really creepy and it's actually called <i>The Snowmen</i> and will be aired on Christmas Day, december 25th 5:15pm UK time.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The mini - episode is like a prequel so it doesn't really give out any spoilers, but if you don't mind the spoilers you can watch the trailer too - I didn't so don't really know what's in it. Here is the <a href="http://bbc.in/Sy6HD3" target="_blank">link</a> for the trailer.<br />
And below is the prequel.<br />

This is the second part of my snowflakes, you can find the first ones <a href="http://madgirlwithablog.blogspot.com/2012/12/snowflake-mania-part-1.html" target="_blank">here</a>, it's mostly snowflakes of names of my friends I designed.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
These however are strictly geeky ones. I've put the sites I got the ideas from at the end but if you're interested in making some yourself, I'd say just create your own ones, the satisfaction you get when you unfold one you've designed is so much more fulfilling. I've hung some of them on my windows, you can see in the pictures here.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I liked these the best, there were failed attempts too, so these aren't the only ones. There is a technique, making very narrow gaps, strings that I just can't seem to do. Maybe my papers aren't suitable for those.<br />

Hello everyone!<br />

It's good and sunny the day before, hadn't even worn gloves until now and boom! It's white all over the city.</div>
<div>
With the snow today, I thought it's finally time to share my latest madness with snowflakes. Paper ones. </div>

It started with a few innocent snowflakes but turned into something I fear now. First I did some generic, going with the flow snowflakes, then saw 3D ones and somehow took this simple thing into the next level, I'm afraid the level after this is obsession.. This is just the first batch, I have a bunch of geeky ones coming next. Stay tuned. Until then here are some 'irregular' snowflakes.</div>

p.s: As I was writing this post, I realized I don't really have much of the regular snowflakes, after the first few, I dove right into the weird and geeky ones.<br />

p.p.s: The ones labeled ' <i>© cansueren.com</i> ' are my own creations, others are from templates and/or ones changed or simplified from other templates.</div>

The first 3D snowflake I did was very exciting because I didn't see the end model and didn't know how it was going to turn out. This is a very small one but I did bigger ones and one is even on display at my school's book shop! It's very easy to make but you need time, you can find the video tutorial here:</div>

Then I though why not try my hand at origami... Saw this video by <a href="http://www.happyfolding.com/" target="_blank">Sara Adams</a> and tuned out awesome but most likely was a Carpel Tunnel - inducer experience. You can find her video <a href="http://youtu.be/7m72m8L0xuA" target="_blank">here</a>, after some time you bond with Sara's sweet voice and start talking back and fold racing with her. Just... be careful.<br />

These are some of the templates I found on the net, if you type in 'snowflakes' or 'how to make snowflakes' click on the images and learn the different techniques of folding the paper and folding numbers. Some of these are impossible to even try, I'm afraid I don't have the patience to perfect myself for those (for instance I'm sure the third one would quite be the death of me.)<br />

Now why are they finishing at episode 13? Because they want to end the series at the 100th episode mark. Doesn't make much sense if you ask me because everything feels pretty rushed right now. For instance we didn't resolve any of the dilemma at the end of season 4. Why is Peter trapped in this universe, is this really his universe, how come Olivia remember things happened in another universe and most importantly what happened to the other universe?! Just because they closed the bridge, doesn't mean they solved any mysteries or anything.<br />

Abram's style, I don't think we'll know more when the series ends. But last we heard, J.J. Abrams does not seem to be too involved with <i>Fringe </i>anymore, and comparing the new episodes to the older ones, it is very possible. <i>Fringe </i>feels kind of different now. I don't fully understand why people lost interest in <i>Fringe</i>. When they moved the show to Friday nights, it wasn't at a point where only true fans would endure to watch, it was still interesting.<br />

That's why this new season feels like they're rushing an end just for us true fans. Even J.J. Abrams said so, "<i>We're so excited to begin to work on a fifth season of Fringe and to be able to deliver the 13 final episodes to our passionate and devoted fans.</i>" Well, thanks but us 'passionate and devoted fans' can feel something's wrong with the show. No matter, I still like it and will feel sad when it ends. Yes.<br />

My favorite moment, like many other's, was the part with Windmark finding out about Peter's plans. Just when I was thinking why doesn't Windmark 'see' Peter's plans, he finds out and just when I was feeling bad that the plan wasn't going to pan out, it turns out Peter knew he was going to find out, with the writing '5:42 You are here' fading away to show it is 5:42 and he is there. That was incredible and one of many reasons why I love this show.<br />
<br />

However the act of him pulling out the 'Observer Antenna' himself, was not logical and despite everything happening in the show seemed most unrealistic.<br />

As for this week's episode, <i>S05xE09 Black Blotter</i>, we're still in year 2036, we're still trying to find out Walter's plans via his video blogs but this episode was more like a continuance of the previous one. The radio they found starts working and they try to decode the message that does not feel like anything they know, so they try to find the source of the signal, meanwhile Walter drops acid and floats in his own version of reality. Those parts were pretty fun, seeing things through Walter's eyes, especially when he tries to remember the password, in his mind everything is in drawing and unreal. That part is why I still watch this show, they find ways to surprise us with unexpected methods.<br />

Well it's not literally the first thing<br />
in the book but it's on the second page and I think this way it has a more dramatic way to start things.</div>
<br />
<br />
The first thing I thought was some events are probably going to be highlighted more than they were in the book, such as the troll scene and definitely Rivendell parts. They barely make up a chapter in the book but judging by the trailers, we will see more of Elrond than the six pages mentioned in the book.<br />

According to <a href="http://theonering.net/">TheOneRing.Net</a>, director Peter Jackson said <i>"We expended out the universe a lot more so that we weren't just staying with Bilbo and the Dwarves on their journey, as the book pretty much does. We started to expand some of what's happening to Gandalf outside of that journey." </i><br />
<br />
That is great news, 'cause I think we will see much more of Gandalf's and Radagast's interaction than the book mentions.<br />

Actually I think this poster pretty much sums up what we will see in two days..<br />

I've watched the production blog videos with great amusement and excitement, some more than the others. Here is a link to all of them, it's just a little over 90 minutes but so much fun! The little trivia you learn as well as looking out for the things you expect in the movie is worth the time. Also things like learning the technology behind the 3D filming is mind blowing, I don't want to spoil much so if you're interested just make the time to watch them.<br />

The games they play with our perception always amazes me. These photos both explains it actually. With the Bag End, the door looks so little, but in the Bilbo one, Peter Jackson himself looks like a hobbit.</div>

And seeing Andy Serkis as the Second Unit Director was a nice surprise. A side note, pay attention to the 33:33 mark in the first video, and the events leading up to that point, someone epic makes his appearance finally.<br />
<br />
Something else is that has me puzzled is that, there is to be two films as two directors Peter Jackson and Andy Serkis discuss in the videos, but there are entries for three movies in Imdb. Now they are both very reliable sources as one come from the director, but the blog videos were done a little time ago and I can't find a recent confirmation. Imdb says there is to be:<br />

Maybe the third one will be some sort of documentary because 2012 and 2013 were the confirmed dates for the movies.<br />

In the same conversation with Peter Jackson and Andy Serkis, Serkis asks him how come they had a half way jumper of 133 days for three movies for Lord of the Rings and now they have a halfway hoodie of 127 days for the two movies of The Hobbit, for that he answers: "Easily explained. We're all 10 years older." (That makes 88 days per movie for LOTR and 127 days per movie for The Hobbit) That was a very cool moment at the 1hr mark of the first video.<br />

This is Exclusive extended Misty Mountains clip was released on <a href="http://theonering.net/">TheOneRing.Net</a> The effect on the trailer is obviously greater but I still think the song is very brilliantly composed nonetheless from the lyrics in the book.<br />

<br />
When you watch the full production blog videos you get hit in the face by how much Peter Jackson and his crew care about this project. This is not just a movie or any other script to them. They dedicate a huge chunk of their lives to even begin the beginning of the movies and at the end they become a family. It really is inspiring to see people who work so hard to give J.R.R. Tolkien's work the care and the importance it deserves. I can't wait for the 14th, because there may be things that you don't expect in the film but one thing Peter Jackson never does is disappoint the expectations.<br />

<br />
November may be sweet but December is all about Christmas and snow and lights and decorations! Here in Turkey the decorations come out closer to New Year's, I can't wait for all the malls come alive with Christmas lights.<br />

They are also known for their Christmas decorations. Some say there is also a machine they puffs out fake snow every now and then, but none of us really saw it happen, but the idea is still very cool. Oh and for bigger effect, I should mentions this: It hasn't snowed in Istanbul, yet....<br />

I don't have many posts for Christmas, decorations and settings this year but themed-songs and such don't change that much over the years, so I'm just going to refer you to my previous posts on the subject.

You know how sad we were when Friends ended and there were no other shows that could catch up to it? Well I think New Girl might be the thing.<br />

<br />
The simultaneously weird and adorable Jessica Day (<i>Zooey Deschanel</i>) and her equally sometimes more so weirder housemate Nick Miller (<i>Jake Johnson</i>), Winston Bishop (<i>Lamorne Morris</i>) and of course, Schmidt (<i>Max Greenfield</i>) with Jessica's goddess-like model friend Cecilia 'Cece' Meyers (<i>Hannah Simone</i>) color our Tuesdays.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
Sometimes even though I expect Jessica's weirdness, she does something so unexpected that I fall off the couch laughing. Like in <i>S02xE07 Menzies, </i>where she looses it in her interview... I'm sure I will loose my self again whenever I hear 'Puppy....in a....cuuup'!! And here is the puppy in question , well a very close one anyway :)<br />

But the first moment Jess captured my attention as a promising character was one of her very first lines when someone says they like her glasses, she simply says: Thanks, they help me see.... That, is why this show and Jess is <i>Simply Adorkable</i>.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
One of my all time favorite moment in TV, I'm just gonna let the clip talk for itself, <i>S01xE19 Secrets :</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Both the 'Jessica P, Jessica freaking P!' and the 'No! No!' tantrum are moments seal the deal for me.<br />
<br />
Aside from the mangificen-ce of the main characters, the supporting actors adn actresses are tı be mentioned too. Another of my favorite moments were the parts where Cece's Russian model friend Nadia. I love her lines and her movements, especially when she sees herself in the magazine, 'There's meee'.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
I can't say much about Winston but Nick and Schmidt are quite prominent characters themselves, Nick's neurotic nature is amazing to watch and the way Jake Johnson portrays the shifts in Nick's emotions is what makes him the actor he is, for me at least. And Schmidt's douche-bag-ness on top of his emotional vulnerability with Max Greenfield's dedication, is the reason he is my favorite character. :) </div>
<br />
And did you notice me never mentioning Schmidt's first name? Because nobody knows, really not even in the official FOX website. Every character's full name is mentioned in one of the episodes but never Schmidt's. That's a mystery I am looking very much to uncover.<br />

As for the latest episode <i>S02xE10 Bathtub</i>, I was really looking forward to the Cece Schmidt match again, but guess that's not happening, yet. I'm saying yet because... come on, you know it's gonna happen sometime, everyone thinks the same about Nick & Jess but I'm not sure about that. Cece and Schmidt? Definitely yes.<br />

There is a lot to be said about <i>New Girl </i>but I still think referring <i>New Girl</i> as the new <i>Friends </i>is enough. What I mean with that is, no matter what if you're feeling down, any episode of New Girl can be the tool to pick you up, any episode. And that, is saying something in my terms.<br />

It's really been a shock how Amy and Rory left the series, I always thought Doctor would leave them alone to let them have their own lives, but to have them actually die was a Moff-fucked move.</div>

To have them leave with an <i>Angel</i>s<i> </i>episode was a nice tribute them and their contributions to the series. These are not just any companions that leave but Amy is the very first person 11th Doctor ever seen and they have been the first couple to travel with him.. And uh... let's just not forget that Amy and Rory are technically his in-laws... I won't go into the details of the episode but there are some screen shots that will speak for themselves so... SPOILERS...</div>

I know the finale was mainly focused on Amy but I am very sad to see Rory go as well... There are very loyal and hard core Rory Williams fans out there. If Amy was the girl who waited, Rory is the boy who waited, I don't think I can give the rightful credit to his epic-ness. He is the centurion. Here's my favorite .gif that explains everything.<br />

Judging by the trailers, this is going to be one goose bump inducing experience. As one of the people who was introduced (of course by my brother) to the <i>Middle Earth</i> with <i>The Hobbit</i>, I am extra excited. But I must admit I forgot about the details of the book as I read it when I was 11, almost 12 years ago. I am looking forward to change that in the following 6 days because only a week later, <i>The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey</i> is here for our consideration. I have been in this strange mood to watch the trilogy again for the last couple of weeks, I even started wearing my Evenstar pendant unaware of the actual release date. I guess my body is more aware of my Elvish side than my brain...<br />

As always with LOTR series the official website for The Hobbit is magnificent. Even if you don't go all fan-girl over it like me, just go to <a href="http://www.thehobbit.com/" target="_blank"><i>www.thehobbit.com</i></a> to listen to that heart warming Shire melody by Howard Shore...<br />
<br />
Here are my screen captures of the home page, like <a href="http://www.lordoftherings.net/"><i>www.lordoftherings.net</i></a> when it first came out, the background changes from character to character:<br />

As for the trailers, <i>Misty Mountains</i>, Torin's Song is what makes every hair on my body to stand up. There is something really magical about that melody that makes me extremely excited and extremely sad at the same time.<br />
P.S. Pay attention to the genius subtlety of the music shift at the last part of the trailer.<br />

Anybody left there?.. It's been a while no?... Anyway I'm back, it <i>is </i>Christmas time. It's not a secret it's my favorite time in the year. Keep your eyes here and prepare for the things to come.<br />
<br />
I just want to add something here. This blog is my personal preference blog, that means I do not promote things here, I merely use this place as an outlet for the things I love and am passionate about. You won't see things that are very hip but boring here and NEVER Justin Bieber (I'm strongly anti-Bieber these days.)<br />
<br />

Probably not because of the reasons you are thinking....but maybe it is?.... Anyway stopping with the mind games, tomorrow is <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394;"><b>Doctor Who</b></span> day!<br />
<br />
It does look it's going to be awesome and it itself claims that it's the "Best. Christmas. Ever.", but it may be hard to top last year's Christmas Special, 'A Christmas Carol'. That was truly awesome... But again, Doctor who Christmas Speacials tend to be special.(pun fully intended.) Plus with this one, I'm pretty curious about the Narnia reference<br />
<br />
I do like the prequel though, so if any of you missed the prequel or the trailer, hurry up 'cause tomorrow is the big day.<br />

<br />
I feel like a very blue Christmas this year. All the exams and projects and homeworks and life sucked away my Christmas spirit. But I still have my tree, that is one thing I cannot compromise. (Well, actually two things. We have one tree at home with my brother and another tiny one at my dorm with my roommates.)<br />
<br />
This Christmas Eve, at home, we ate Chinese food while watching <i>Love Actually</i>. I think we did good, no?<br />
<br />

So..<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-size: x-large;">Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Everyone!!!</span><br />
Now go hug someone you love, I have a lonely night of marketing projects, old episodes of <i>Bones</i> and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches ahead... ;)<br />

<br />
Is there any Assassins among you? If you don't know what I'm talking about or if you know and do not play Assassin's Creed, why not?<br />
<br />

Assassin's Creed: Revelations just came out last week and believe me when I say it; It. Is. Awesome! And I'm not just biased because the story is in Istanbul aka Constantinople! Well maybe a little :)<br />

I just started playing with my brother and it shows really cool developments, both in graphics and plot. And the history seems to be according to actual facts. People usually have a hard time accepting historical facts if they were led to believe otherwise, but up to now, it's pretty accurate. And we're learning stuff we didn't even know before! for example how many of you knew that the Sultan then, Bayezid II asked Leonardo Da Vinci to design a bridge for the Golden Horn but didn't like it, then asked Michelangelo to do it but he said, if Leonardo was rejected he didn't want to participate in this design.... Don't know about you but my mind is blown.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img alt="File:Leonardo Bridge.jpg" height="271" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/99/Leonardo_Bridge.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The bridge designs found in Leonardo Da Vinci's notebooks.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
We play on weekends, when I stay at home rather than my dorm, and last weekend when we just stopped the next assignment was to go into the Bazaar and find Piri Reis and learn bomb making from him! Awesome? Hell yeah!!<br />

And lastly I know this has more Altair then Ezio, but I think Woodkid's Iron is the perfect soundtrack for Assassin's Creed games.</div>

My brother has sorta become an avid <i>reddit</i> user, my inbox is nearly full of mails subjected as: <i>From Reddit Pics: "....." - </i>not that I'm complaining, those are like my saving bell when I don't even know I need them. Anyway he sent me this a while back. Since I'm filling with <i>Doctor Who</i> vibe with the new episodes, I though you might like it too. I don't want to smother you with <i>reddit </i>findings but I'll share stuff that cracks me up, keep tuned. Enjoy.<br />
<br />
(On second thought this may be a kind of spoiler, for those who may understand it. Just...beware.)<br />
