 OMG!  I love Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat!  It was INCREDIBLE!  There's soooo much to say!

( I've put it under a cut because there is SO much to say! )

 OMG I hate phones.  I hate them with a passion and the companies that sell them!  

After all that stress about the stupid internet allowance on my new phone I finally decided to return it and go for the other phone I was thinking of getting.  Which meant I had to return the phone in the post, but since it was a Sunday the post office was shut and then it was a bank holiday so I finally went in and sent that phone back today.  I had to call up the company on Sunday and tell them I wanted to return it and to cancel the upgrade, the first guy just told me to post it back within the 7day trial period but because of the post office being shut I couldn't so I called them up again and this guy told me it had to be put through on the system, which the other guy hadn't done!  Good job I had to call them up again or I'd be stuck with that stupid deal.

Anyway I went and bought my new phone and it was all going splendidly until I realised today that for some reason it won't receive picture messages, which okay isn't all that important but I want to see pictures!  I did everything they told me to do, literally everything, and it still isn't working!  Why is it not simple? Why!  

So now I've got to sort that out, and I've got to call up the company of my old phone and cancel that contract because they wouldn't do it before they had the phone back (fair enough really) and I'm really worried I won't be able to cancel it for some reason!  

This was supposed to be a nice relaxing break from uni and it was all going so well until this!  Fingers crossed everything works out tomorrow, if not I may actually breakdown.

Apologies for the rant - if you want a happy ending of sorts I'm going to the Sherlock Q&A session with flecalicious on Thursday and then we're going to have a squeefest the next day followed by xbox times!  Maybe this is why the phones have been annoying - the epicness of Thursday has to be balanced by something I suppose.

First OMG moment of today:

The amazing and fantastic and totally incredible flecalicious got tickets for us both to go to a screening of Sherlock on the 6th Jan!  It'll be on the big screen and will be followed by a Q&A session with Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat!!!!!!!!  :D 

I have honestly not stopped squeeing about this since she told me!  I'm honestly now looking forward to the 6th January more than Christmas at this point!

I think there are a few tickets left so if you're interested go here!  It's in Clapham, South of London...OMG I'm so excited!!


The other OMG moment of today was Misfits!  I won't say any spoilers in case some people watch it but haven't seen it yet...but OMG what the hell???  How could they do that to us?  :'(

Yay!  The wonderful flecalicious has come to stay with me at uni for the weekend! 

Last night was a fangirl's dream!  We watched epic amounts of SGA (I'm introducing her to the wonders of it, we just finished s1 so got a way to go yet!  But it's great coz it means I get to relive what it was like watching them for the first time!) and Sherlock (yeah we 'may' have watched SiP and the Pilot one after the other...comparing the awesomeness! lol).  There was a lot of squeeing involved, I think it may have disturbed my flatmates!

Well we're off to the student union bar/club tonight with some of my other friends who graduated last year, so looks set to be another epic night!  This is gonna be a weekend of WIN!

Right so I think I've said this is one of my other posts but I'm part of my university's student television station, one of the station managers in fact!  We do loads of different shows but I'm the producer of our film review show 'Cameo'. 

All I wanted to say was that the first episode of this term is done now and I'd thought I'd put a link on here.  Mainly because I'm new to LJ and want to write another post! lol.  Anyhoo here's the link, feel free to watch or you can ignore this post and continue with your life! lol. I hope you enjoy it.

I want to be able to have a week like the last every week of my life! 

In case you don't know for the last week I have been running around London (mainly Leicester Square) filming parts of the BFI London film festival for my film show for the student television station I help run.

Basically every morning we went and saw a press screening of an awesome film, followed by a press conference with the director, writer and actors of that film, then some afternoons we interviewed film directors, followed up with the premiere of that mornings film in the evening, for some we even got to do interviews on the red carpet!  I wish this was my life...I could do without the insanely early mornings every day but if I got to watch an incredible film I think it's worth it! 

Highlight of the week (in a week of highlights!) was definitely being on the red carpet and getting the autographs of Helena Bonham-Carter and Colin Firth!! (Btw when The Kings Speech comes out in cinemas I highly recommend going to see it!) 

I have also learnt that professional tv press are really no different to student tv stations and they are all really very lovely friendly people!  Unlike the papparazzi who are just sharks and have no sympathy for the poor person they photograph...how celebs manage to keep upright in the onslaught of flashes they get at red carpet events I will never know...especially in their HUGE heels!  Seriously, respect! 

Oh and also the toilets at the May Fair Hotel are much nicer than those at The Berkeley (I mean at the May Fair there was sweets, incense, relaxing music, individual flannels...it was sooo posh; The Berkeley just had a lot of marble and flannels.)

But that has been by far the best week of my life to this point and I'm so sad it's over.  I guess I'll just have to make a career of it once I've graduated from uni! : )
