I can't get over how fucking good Skins is. I mean, the pilot was good, but it was nothing compared to everything that happens afterwards. I'm only up to episode 6, but I think I'll have myself a bit of a marathon tonight and finish it. My favorite episode so far? the forth one, Chris, which had me crying my eyes out last night, no joke - tears, sobs, snot leaking down my nose, the whole nine yards (er, is that normal? *looks around shiftyly*. But Sid had one of the best shot scenes I've ever seen in television, so. Maxxie and Anwar was kinda blah (like it's characters, actually...), but there was boy kissing so I'm not complaining.

Chris inside his closet. Oh God, it broke me so hard. I think that's when I started crying, and then I coulndn't stop until it ended (and then I had to take some time off to sob freely before starting with the next episode. The ending! *sniffle* His entire story is so heart breaking, and the faces he made, you really did believe he was all alone in the world. ♥

And then that wonderful, incredibly gorgeous scene in Sid, you know the one, when Sid, Michelle and Tony are dancing to that entrancing bit of music all angstily and Cassie's putting the water pistol in her mouth and dancing in the bench and, and -- a;sldkjfasldkfjlasdjf. I honestly hadn't expected so much quality in this show, but what a pleasant surprise! o_O

My school organized a fashion contest so neither of the four majors imparted (arquitecture, graphic design, interior design and industrial design) in campus would have an advantage, and me and some friends signed in! The theme is 'symbolic fire' (yeah I know, pretentious much?), and we'll be doing the dress with a 'chinese dragon' theme, which is ironic considering dragons symbolized water and rain back then. *cough* Let's just hope the judges won't know that... *shifty eyes* We're gonna go search for fabrics tomorrow.

My remix fic is currently 500 words long. Yay? I kinda have to have it ready before thursday, because I gotta have it betaed and I'm leaving on holiday, so...

Skins is awesome!!! I must watch the last few episodes. Chris broke my heart too, bless him.

It's more the fact that I hadn't expected it, I was all like 'oh, dodgy-looking guy that has the hots for his teacher, whatev.' and now I'm all like '*draws hearts around him*' o_O Seriously, what's wrong with me. *criez some more over Chris' sad, broken life*

Skins is the best, right?! I honestly wasn't expecting much from the Chris episode, so it really surprised me, and it's probably one of my favourites. In Sid's episode, I really liked the scene when Cassie is singing Michelle to Sid, and starts yelling the I love her part, that just got me. And yeah, Maxxie & Anwar's ep was pretty weak, but in my opinion its the only one of those of the whole series!

I think it's still my favorite episode, although 'Effy' was suuuuch a good one! Oh, yeah, I'd forgotten about that part! It's so very Cassie, and I love her for that. :)

That scene in Sid made me so sad, it was so... bittersweet minus the sweet part. And I need to rewatch Chris because I don't remember all that much about that episode.

And oh, you don't like Maxxie? I agree that the episode was pretty blah, but I loooove Maxxie.

Hehe, yeah, it was pure visual candy, while still being incredibly hurtful. *sob*

Oh, I like him alright, but him and Anwar are the least developed characters, which makes me sad. Let's hope Maxxie gets more screen time in series 2! :)
