Mmm, shallowness.
Jan. 13th, 2005 11:47 amSpent yesterday working with the Save the Children, where I'm on the board of the student association. Got home exhausted, but happily found my After the Deluge DVD had arrived. After the Deluge was an Aussie mini series I saw while there and fell in love with. It starred David Wenham, Hugo Weaving and Catherine McClemets, among others. And so I made some screencaps.Under the LJ-cut you will find a small selection.















Amazing what a bit of shallowness can do to cheer up an otherwise tiresome day, yes. (But why does this LJ not have a shallow mood? Hmpf.)

You're welcome.

They had a bit of fun and Hugh sang some of Sandy's songs while Travolta sang his part. It was pretty amusing. The insanity people get up to in Australia...

Oh just keep on adding the worst mistakes of my life to that list and it will reach Canada in less than a week.
Then again...*ponders over her current hobby, namely larp*
Would this be considered a mistake to have joined? (please ignore the fact they are speaking Dutch...it's mostly visual anyway)
Great pics hun. And shallowness is not a crime...it's a privilage to those who need a break from real life philosophy.

And it's even more annoying because now there's NO good Aussie dramas showing any more. The commercial channels are only showing stupid US sitcoms and more bloody reality shows, SBS is all foreign and the ABC only shows the Bill.
DAMMIT!
Ahem. Sorry 'bout all that coming out here. It's been brimming up for a while.
