Welcome to the TARDIS Landing Bay - a Doctor Who Chatroom. Here we have a lovely time chatting about the series, whatever that may mean. Whether it's about a new Doctor or watching the classics, we're just having a bit of fun.

Me too o: But, I'm still waiting for it to be free for me to watch it, which may or may not happen anytime soon XD If that's the case, then I might just give in and buy it XD
Oh, good! Post-y, post-y!
I drew a picture of the 12th doctor a while ago and I want to share it, but I also don't like posting my art. so i don't even know why i just said that, whoops. i guess i just needed to share that fact, haha
Omaigosh, really? That's great, haha. I can't seem to convince anyone to watch it with me XD

That's a good plan! I just bought all of 11's and 12's run.  Would making it your avatar again work? Only if you're comfortable of course! I think it's amazing that you've done some art!Yeah! She's gotten a long way through season 10! |

Oh, good! Enjoy! No ten, though? XD I have 9, 10, 11, and 12 XD I couldn't help myself, haha. I had to buy them all XD
it might, but I think last time I had trouble making it the right size, so if I do, I'll have to figure that out again, haha. We'll see XD
Nice!! Does she like it so far?

Post by mintedstar/fur on Sept 11, 2020 4:58:09 GMT -5
XD I only had so much money, so sadly no 9 or 10. Plus I'll probably be getting things in the order I like them, very likely. So 13 will probably be next (I did really enjoy the latest season).
We shall see what we shall see.
Yeah! She does! She's on the finally of series 10 now. cx

That's true, yeah. Get them in the order that you like them best, haha. I think I ended up just buying them all together? Like, at first I was only going to buy 9, 10 & 11, but then I had to buy 12, too XD I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the latest season!
yes, i'm still considering it!
Does she have a favorite Doctor?

That's a very good principle. I had a budget. I've also already spent faaaaaaar too much money this year. Far more than I usually do. X') Tis the quarantine life.
Not yet! She's only seen 12 thus far, but seems to like him.

I'm pretty sure I used up money from Christmas / some holiday or something XD I have definitely spent a lot more money that I would like to have, as well o: Not good.
Oh, true XD I suppose it would be sort of hard to form an opinion on the others if she hasn't seen them, haha.

There was a teacher discount at B & N and I'm still running on the shock that I am, in fact, a teacher. And that movies apply. So I may have overdone it.
I also have no regrets.
My sister wants her to watch 10. XD
She's seen Good Omens, so she knows the actor.

I feel like I should have remembered that if you told me, but I didn’t realize you were a teacher. That’s pretty awesome! (: And also pretty awesome you get all those discounts! No regrets about that, haha.
That’s how I got into Doctor Who, too! I saw Good Omens, fell in love with David Tennant, and then decided I had to watch through the 9th Doctor so I could see his Doctor! XD
(I had originally wanted to see Doctor Who b/c old friends of mine had watched it and loved it, but I never had means to watch it. By the time it was finally available for me to watch, I tried the first episode and could not get through it, so I stopped watching it. After I watched Good Omens, I gave it another try so I could see 10th Doctor. And now, funnily enough, I quite enjoy the first season whereas at first I couldn’t stand it xD)

I may not have mentioned it, heh. I've only been one since April.
It is a dangerous, dangerous ability.
She liked and read Good Omens before. Then in addition I was always talking about Doctor Who.
(That's good! Glad to hear it. :3 I'm glad you like it so I have someone to talk to it about.)

That’s so cool, though! What subject do you teach, if you don’t mind me asking?
Did she read the book first or see the show first? I saw the show first (a bunch of times, I think I told you? XD) and then I bought the book and read that (:
(Yes, it is good to have a person to discuss Doctor Who with! I’ve actually been wanting to rewatch some episodes. Do you have any suggestions?)

English and art!
She read the book first. As did I. And then I painfully waited for the movie. Then the TV show. And never expected much ... and then it was BETTER THEN EXPECTED. Blew both our minds.
(I've been wanting to rewatch the episode Jack turns up in. For a while now.)

(I've been wanting to rewatch the episode Jack turns up in. For a while now.) That sounds like so much fun! Did you have to move to online teaching because of the virus? Wait. There’s a movie? XD But, yes, I agree. I read the book after the show, but I have to say both are pretty spot on. Like even the tone and everything. It’s pretty awesome. (Oh, yes! That one is great! I love Jack, haha. He’s in my Doctor Who short story that I wrote!) |

Nope! It's an online school!
Nope! But there was plans for one. It fell through though. And probably good thing. I think Neil Gaiman did a better job than anything else I expected.
Here here! 100% agree.
(Heeeeeeeeeey! That's cool! I can't remember if I've ever written anything with Jack.)

Still pretty awesome! Do you have to have the same teaching certifications for online? & yess! He did a great job! I’m glad that he was so involved with the show! (Yes, it is my one and only Doctor Who short story xD Featuring Jack and the 10th Doctor! ) |

Nope! Just experience! So I've been a sub for my art teacher for about 4-ish years now. And then for creative writing, I'm an English tutor - but also I've been on this site and been writing for 10~ years.
So am I! It's so amazing that he just ... wrote it. Terry Pratchett was right in making him promise to do it himself.
(That is so cool!)
I did a painting of 13 for my friend. I'm gonna put it up tomorrow hopefully.

Oh, really?  How does one get experience? XD Do you need teaching experience? Or just experience in writing or art? I still kind of wish I'd gone to school for teaching b/c I think I'd love to be a creative writing teacher. I always think of how I graduated many students and taught a writing school on the old forums in the wff. But I don't know if that counts o: Ikr? (Yep!) Nice!! If you put it up, I'd love to see! |

Post by mintedstar/fur on Sept 28, 2020 17:42:24 GMT -5
Just any sort. For example, I've been writing for 10-ish years my own stories, so that would be considered experienced. Or the fact that I've subbed for a little at my art classes. That would count! It's pretty up those lines. I totally forgot to put it up, so I'll go do that! |

Cool, cool! And, wow. I remember the exact day that I considered myself a writer... and it's odd to think that before then I wasn't o: It's been 9 years for me now, almost 10.
Awesome! I'll check it out!
(If we're both on at the same time later and I can get it working, I'll show you my 12th doctor portrait!)

That's an impressive spread of time! I mark it on when I started reading Warriors. Accurately, it would have probably been 2012. I started by writing fix-it fics for TLH.
Yaaaaaaaay!
(Whoops. Working most of the day, but I should be on tomorrow!)

Yeah! And it all started on this place, actually! (Well, not this place specifically XD But, the old forums, haha).
Nice!! Do you still have your old fics?
(I'm here right now, haha. Not sure for how long XD I might pop on and off, haha)

I do indeed have my old fics! They're in my box of old notebooks. Each chapter was less than a paragraph.
I posted a portion of it on here, actually. For comparison.
(We REALLY missed each other. I was gone all day. @.@ )

Nice!! It's always so cool seeing how far you've come. I remember the weekends that I would wake up at 6 AM when no one else would be up and I'd sit on the couch and just write. I miss those days. Now I wake up at 4 AM every day, so waking up at 6 AM on my one off day is tough  (We did indeed XDD) |

That's rough! Maybe some point in the future you can get back to your regular hours!
Also, I tend to write in the later hours, pfft.
Mom still hasn't watched the last two parter. Huuum. Should waylay her about that.

Random: but I just got 6 candies in one! XD I thought the most you could get was like 5, haha. I love it XD
I wish D: But unfortunately, it's my job. And unless I find something else, which I sadly don't foresee, this is how it will be D:
Those hours were from when I was back in high school ):
Nice! For me, if I'm busy during the day, then I'll write later on. But if I have the day off, I like to start in the morning and then write the entire day until it gets dark xD Those days don't often happen though :/
Yes, yes XD Doctor Who must be watched, haha.
