Sorry if it seems I fell off the face of the Earth for a while.

Let's say I've been busy recently. College stuff, things like that. Currently back from my cousin's wedding as well -- I definitely had a great time. It was good to see her and her family again, especially considering that I probably haven't seen them since I was a kid. The ceremony went well; I think the only really bad thing was that there was a bit of a cold front going through the area at the time, and it started raining, and though it wasn't too bad by the time the ceremony got started, it was still pretty bad. I think the minister in charge of the wedding even made some jokes about it. But it was a beautiful ceremony, and really -- I hope that my cousin and her new husband are happy together.

The reception went really well also -- I did some dancing with the others, which was fun, and caught up with my aunt and uncle. I learned he was the best man at my dad's wedding, which was really cool, and my aunt shared some stories about that. I also caught up with my cousins, one who has a daughter now, one who's now in high school. And then we headed back to the hotel my dad and I were staying at -- I couldn't go to the afterparty because I was worn out, but I did email my cousin to thank her for having my dad and I. And I slept okay -- only real disruption was something I actually slept through, when some drunk guy wandered into our room thinking it was his; luckily, that got smoothed over.

And previous to that, my dad and I saw Carnegie Mellon, which was really fun. The day before we didn't do much because rain, but before the wedding started, we got to see it. Overall, the wedding went great.

So, how is everyone doing?

Had a really good time at the local anticipating-Christmas party -- especially chatting with some people I met about things like THE HOBBIT, BATMAN, STAR WARS, what-have-you. Also got to discuss stuff like Lucasfilm being sold to Disney and whatnot, and some of us hoping that even if the STAR WARS EU wasn't directly adapted, we'd still get Mara Jade in somehow (which I definitely hope so too, because I've been dying to see Mara on the big screen for quite a while. :) She's awesome. :3). I know that someone actually suggested Karen Gillan to play Mara should she get in there, which I love (for those who haven't watched Doctor Who, Amelia Pond: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mayxs09hyK1qbo8l4o1_1280.jpg). Because Karen Gillan is a wonderful actress, and I think she could portray Mara very well with a lot of depth. Mara's a very complex character (half of why I adore her. :3) and I think Karen can do a lot with that. :)

Also got to geek out about Amelia Pond, which was also awesome. Honestly, the only thing that was really sad was when it ended, because it meant that it would be a while before I got to see them again (although the New Year's party is rolling around, so there is that. :). Also got to talk with my Mom a bit about Anakin, screenwriting, etc. on the way there, which was nice. :) 

So all in all? Had a good time. :3 Really glad that I went there. :)
