Okay sorry, I know this is some kind of advertisement thing, but if the first episode isn’t the Master discussing the drums in his head and how he hate/loves the Doctor, I will scream the wild call of the Face of Boe. (If you didn’t know, that call basically sounds like giant wrinkly face in fog and extreme pan-sexuality)
Starting Friday, May 20th, watch the stories of brave people coming clean about issues they’ve been hiding. ‘Secret Lives of Americans’ Fridays at 10e/p on Pivot.Â
So I saw this and felt it needed a fifth step that could only be explained in the wise lyrics of Dido's "White Flag". Step 5: "I will go down with this ship. I won't put my hands up and surrender. There will be no white flag above my door. [They're] in love, and always will be." I felt I needed another step to describe how deep I am in my ships, but idk about anyone else.
Okay so first I see Barrowman, and like any self-respecting Whovian.... I freaked. Because when you watch a show that you just kind of heard about, (Arrow) and you didn’t really expect much of it, but then one of your favorite actors EVER shows up... you just feel GREAT....
I didn't imagine anything could be better about this show.
but then

William had a dream of bringing electricity and running water to his village. And he was not prepared to wait for politicians or aid groups to do it for him. The need for action was even greater in 2002 following one of Malawi’s worst droughts, which killed thousands of people and left his family on the brink of starvation.
Unable to attend school, he kept up his education by using a local library. Fascinated by science, his life changed one day when he picked up a tattered textbook and saw a picture of a windmill. Mr Kamkwamba told the BBC News website: “I was very interested when I saw the windmill could make electricity and pump water.
"I thought: ‘That could be a defense against hunger. Maybe I should build one for myself’." When not helping his family farm maize, he plugged away at his prototype, working by the light of a paraffin lamp in the evenings. But his ingenious project met blank looks in his community of about 200 people.
"Many, including my mother, thought I was going crazy," he recalls. "They had never seen a windmill before." [x]
In 2014, William Kamkwamba received his 4 year degree at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire where he was a student.
