Today was a pretty long day. It's my long day of classes since I have Moot Court in the evening. It actually doesn't feel like it's as long as it was last semester. I think it's because I have Property for two hours instead of Civil Procedure. Much, much, much more interesting class. Anyway, I think I'm just tired. I've been doing a lot of homework this week and last weekend. I thought I was going to have time to start on next week's reading this week, but I'm seeing now that this is not going to happen. Nope.

Idol was okay tonight. I think they're finally done with auditions, but I switched to Lost too soon to find out for sure. There were some really good voices tonight.

Lost was more interesting. I don't know where to begin. They need to go back to the whole flash back thing. I miss that format, but I guess there's something intense about to go down, so they don't have time for that.

You know what the best part of this episode was? There. Was. No. Jack. In fact, there was no Kate either. It was GLORIOUS.

There was a lot of Faraday in this episode, and I'm coming up with some new theories on him. I think creepy old lady (Mrs. Hawkins, I think is her name) is Faraday's mom. Either that, or the woman who kept on trying to kill him is his mom. Farraday did keep looking at her because he said something about her looked familiar. Also, we've now established that not only does Charles Widmore know Faraday's mom, but he also used to live on the island. He was one of the O.G. Others, apparently. It would make sense that their acquaintance goes back to this time. It could be that Faraday's mom is both creepy old lady and O.G Other. This would explain why creepy old lady knows so much about the island and what's going to happen if they don't go back.

Also, I love Juliette. She's so much cooler than Kate. I love her tongue-in-cheek jokes about "the Others."

I'm glad someone finally asked the question that we've all been dying to know for the last few seasons regarding Richard's age. Apparently he's been the leader of the Others at his current age since the 1950s (at least). I also find it interesting that Locke apparently recruited himself as an Other.

I think the last comments I wanted to make on Lost had to do with Desmond/Penny. One, or both, of them is going to die this season and that makes me very sad. Neither of them actually want to be caught up in this whole scandal and even Charles is trying to get them to stop their silly meddling. Considering Charles is supposed to be the bad guy in this (or is he? When are we getting his flash back episode?), I'm wondering if he actually cares about what happens to Desmond. Then again, Desmond is with his daughter and he can't be that cold hearted. Even Caleb Nichol wasn't. Also, notice Desmond's kid is named after Charlie?

Oh, one last thing. Daniel Dae Kim's name is still appearing in the credits and he has yet to reappear this season. I'm still convinced he's not dead, but it looks like he's for sure coming back in some form (flashback, Hurley crazy, jinsactuallyalive) this season.
