Review and picspam behind the cut. Warning: spoilers for this episode for those who haven't seen it yet!


First, the picspam, cause Flashback!Laura was so beautiful!

note: These are not bases for icons or anything else, just for viewing pleasure.


She was so happy with her little sisters.
















These fountain shots are one of the most beautiful Laura pictures.













First of all, I had to pause this episode like crazy, cause I had random crying fits everytime I saw flashback Laura, present day sick Laura, hearing the A/R theme, any Caprica City flashbacks, Bill&Kara sticking that red tape over the hangardeck, the memorial wall, seeing Doc Cottle (Sherman!),Laura's Hair Of Awesome being back, hell I cried even when I saw little Nicky with Hotdog (and yay Bodie actually had his first scene with his father, if I'm not mistaken!)
My poor Laura, when she appeared at the hangardeck, she was so weak yet so strong. She walked like an old & sick lady. *cries* I'm still in denial and I won't accept that she will die. NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
And her poor sisters!! I mean, I knew that her father and sisters died in a car accident, but it was awfully heartbreaking to see her receive the sad news. :(
I don't understand why people speculate that the drunk driver was Lee? He would have been in custody/hospital then. It wasn't him.

Okay I need happy thoughts now.
How hilarious Lee's pidgeon attack was?! :D

I wonder who was Bill meeting in the flashback for an hour?

Overall this episode was a beautiful setup for the last 2 hours of the series, and I didn't mind at all that we saw more of the backstories of our favorite characters.

Let me welcome my new friends on my flist: andra_lost, lil_ani and mfirefly10 . I'm looking forward to getting to know you! :)


Make new friends and watch BSG all over again.
Re-watching starts March 22nd.

04/28/09--01:52: Happy Marymas 2009! (chan 1921656)

Best wishes to our Mary, hope you're having a great day today!!!



I have been planning to donate blood for years now, but somehow I was scared and I didn't weigh enough to be accepted. So in the last 3 months, I have been putting on weight on purpose and today on Mary's birthday I actually donated blood for the first time in my life. It felt amazing, the feeling that I can actually help people with this and even save lives. Also, I look much better now that I am not that skinny, so I think I will keep this weight from now on :)
