*lol* So did I, but it never made me want to become a doctor. Admittedly, that was after I had already finished studying. ;)
Interesting. Thanks for the honest answer.
Good Omens
Ha, ok. I read the book, as mentioned, but never any fic. neery: set me up with some good fic, too, ok? :)
Can I opt for nothing? :P
Absolutely a possibility. It was a mean question, and I thought about what I'd say if I'd had to answer it. I would have tried the same thing. *G*
I was born and have lived near Munich all my life, but I've never felt anything more towards the place than a certain sense of familiarity.
I understand completely. I do feel very close to my 'home' near Stuttgart, but it has nothing to do with where I was born (not there) or where I lived the longest (also not there). I am sure this feeling only developed because we moved away and I had a lot of good friends so I loved to go back there to visit them.
I wholeheartedly agree with you on your view of Germany. I do like to live here, though. It has nothing to do with the "Germans" per se, but with the language. I have lived in the US for half a year, and afterwards realized that I don't want to live and work anywhere I have to speak anything other than German all the time. It affected me a lot how much less performant and creative and good at my job I was when I had to do it all in English. Don't get me wrong, my English is very good, but still, my brain works better in German. *shrug* I can't change it, and for that fact alone I am glad to be living in Germany. I wouldn't mind Switzerland or Austria, either. ;)
Ahhh! Enterprise. If I could, I would delete all of season 3 and 4 from the collective fandom memory
Heee. :) Actually I liked both seasons. I liked all four seasons, and I even think the quality of the whole show improved about mid-season 3.
I could totally have done without the clumsy political implications, though, and I agree they should have done a lot more with the whole Temporal Cold War thing. More time travel could have been fun.
I hvae to admit that our Ent pairings are disjunct, though. I always liked Archer/T'Pol. Him from an infatuation from my teenage years (Quantum Leap, ouch) and her because she's Vulcan. I simply love all Vulcans. They're fascinating.
I never could get much interest going for either Trip or Malcolm.
They should fucking well get the first gay on-screen pairing in sci-fi history.
Hee. Not in the squeaky clean Star Trek writing world. They totally lost the innovative spirit that Roddenberry founded the Star Trek universe on. Now it's too late, since Doctor Who and Torchwood already hold that title. :)
What bugs me most about this is that Reed was considered to be characterized as gay, or at least bi. But they didn't do it. *grr*
Yeah. :( They didn't even dare mention it, not even to Reed himself. They always insisted on giving him obviously het dialogue. Talk about mixed signals. ;(
We should totally talk about Ent some (as long as Neery doesn't get too bored), because I really was a big fan of the show, too.
