The Rise Of Skywalker

[lucymorningstar]

I need a Star Wars icon, or a few million of them. I am completely in love again right now. I'd forgotten how much I love Star War when it's good. I hadn't realised quite how much TLJ had let me down until I was watching TROS, which was just incredible.

I cried so much. I knew that I would but I didn't realise how much. Me and S, when Chewie was reacting to Leia's death, were both sobbing in utter hysterics. I think J was ready to disown us! LOL There's a whole bit of the film I missed because I literally couldn't see the screen from tears. We are totally going to have to go again. Gosh, what an absolute shame! I actually had a headache this morning from crying!

I loved how much of Luke, Leia and Han we got. As much as I adore Rey, Poe and Finn (especially Poe *hearteyes*), I was kinda worried after they'd already killed off Luke and Han, that were they were going to complete ignore them. And I loved all the nods to the original trilogy but how at the same time, it was something completely new. There was pretty much as much squeeing and gasping and cheering as there was crying.

I don't have the brain to write a proper review - or really know how to go about doing so - so instead I'm just going to sit here and flail because I don't want to spoil anyone!

I maybe also want OT3 fic...

Also, I keep meaning to come back to DW, I really do but I have nothing to talk about. Which is how and why I'm here today after seeing Star Wars last night. Maybe I should find one of those 30 day memes or something to kickstart January and get back into the habit. As I'm sitting here typing, and I was reading and commenting on my flist as well, I really missed this!

I found that committing to posting every day helped because I started to document the little things and I improved my Welsh at the same time

I need to figure out where in my daily routine to slot in coming online each day, and maybe add it onto my chart. Get into the habit and then have it included in the 'if I do all of these every day, I get a reward at the weekend' group of tasks. I'll figure something out. New Year, New Start, right?

How have you been, anyways?

I'm ok. The broken elbow is mending though my physio could have a second career in interrogation.

Still not working which is annoying

I'm also doing the "posting every day" thing this year (even if it's just a sentence or a picture or a link to something!) and I've found that the days when I think I don't have anything to say are sometimes so interesting and fun to look back on.

I have yet to see it, but I am excited. :D

I am not a critical person when it comes to franchises I adore, so I say, I adored it. Loved everything.
