bending_sickleA present from me to you: Sylar scenes all in one go! Hell yeah! Take it while it's 'cause he's hot!
Found and posted Chapter 22 of Hero's Manual. Not that anyone reads it. *pout*
In other news, a government branch - represented by a group of three - came into my house today to check on the house itself (whether it was livable and safe) and that everyone registered to live here actually was (and vice versa) and had contracts. How truly Dutch.
It was a bizarre experience, because a) while it was 1 pm, I hadn't even had breakfast yet and b) authority law figures make me somewhat uncomfortable in case, somehow, they decide I'm guilty of something. But everything went well and all my papers checked out. I even tought one of 'em something - namely that my Spanish ID is valid for all of Eurpoe, 'cause we're a loving community who accepts things like this.
Yesterday's outing was most excellent. Lander picked me up on his bike - riding double is a very difficult thing indeed! *death grip* - and we went to Proost, where we had a choice of two social events. We eventually settled for the backroom, where his International Law collegues were playing darts. (I threw for the first time ever, with noticable improvement. Watching professional dart shooters, as I have previously done, doesn't help you, but it's entertaining. Ish.) The people were really nice and interesting and, while my body still screamed "I'm nervous and shy and not at all relaxed!", my face was a-giggle and I enjoyed myself. One extra-nice thing was that there was one guy, Ashran or Asran, whom I was a bit attracted to, and we got along nicely. :D
Tomorrow is my internship meeting, and I might meet up with Mariska (email recept pending). Friday I'm heading off to Amsterdam with Lander and whoever cares to join for museum fun.
ETA: Why I feel I should be watching Torchwood: holy smokin' Jack/James!

Tom Cruise talks about Scientology - While I definately woudln't call this "terrifyingly creepy", there are a few moments where I definately balk and crash up against a wall of WTF Wrong! And as scary as I find religion sometimes, and the "We are the authority on x" mentality, I do realize that if it gives people the strength and impulse to "go out and help", that may be a good thing. (Unless by help they mean convert, burn at the stake, etc.)
