Goals that I have completed!
1) Watch seasons 1&2 of Doctor Who! All done :D I love David Tennant sooooo much.<3 <3 <3
2)Pick up my guitar more! Done this! I learned a song! Regina Spektor's "That Time"... it was really sort of easy, but shhh.. Let's all just bask in the glory of the fact that I learned something!!!
3) I have made at least ten necklaces, five bracelets and two rings for my whole : LET'S START MAKING JEWELRY! craze! :D plus I'm making this awesome knitted bracelet, but instead of using yarn- I'm using beaded string :O
And that is about it...
Things I am excited for/want to do!
1) Anime North! I'm going for the second time- and i get to see tons of people who I haven't seen in forever, like some of my old work friends, and people from high school, plus people I haven't seen since summer started- It will be epic.Plus= I am dressing up as Hikari from Haibane Renmei
(picture here)
IT'S LIKE HALLOWEEN CAME EARLY !!
2. I want to make a second blog with a humorous commentary of famous books- ie. books I want to read over again, and make fun of the little nuances, and make "That's what she said" jokes involving them---> Not because I hate them or anything, but I want to show how much I love them by making fun of them... if that makes any sense at all.
I'm thinking about starting with either Harry Potter or Philip Pullman's Dark Materials... not sure which though...
And yeah- that's my update :P
Oh, one last thing-
THE WORLD DIDN'T END BECAUSE THE DOCTOR SAVED US ALL IN THE NICK OF TIME!!!!<3

Super sigh...aka I fail at life.
So- Remember at the beginning of April, before I started exams- when I was all gung-ho about doing all these things over my summer vacation- well- now it is two weeks in, and I've done...diddly squat. I haven't done anything I wanted to do so far. I've just worked... and slept, and that's about it.
To refresh...
I wanted to
1. Start knitting more, which I did for like a day, wanted to make a hat and then realised- I need a yarn needle.. and promptly gave up.
2. Watch the first two seasons of Doctor Who- that also hasn't happened. However, I have watched the first three episodes of the new season, and I can say that I am really quite impressed and intrigued but, I just want some answers!
3. The 100 book challenge....er yeah, I've been to the library once, and I got two books on knitting... But! I did download the audiobook for Jane Eyre... so- I just need to listen to it while knitting! Kill two birds with one stone so to speak!
4.I was supposed to start writing more, but really I haven't been really inspired, or motivated. I keep getting caught up in making it really good- and I kind of lose it because of that..
5.The walking thing.. yeahhh.. that hasn't happened yet either... and I could blame it on the fact that the weather has been really kind of sucky recently, but to be honest, I'm just lazy.
6. Vlogging. I wanted to Vlog, and vlog alot... but really- my first one was kind of a fiasco- I did it about how David Tennant and I share a birthday- and I know if I tried, I could make it better, but I don't think I'm going to continue with that.
And some new goals that cropped up in April
7. Learning to play the guitar. I finally got one, but I haven't really picked it up too many times to learn it so far. I need to!!!!
8. Making Jewellry- This is the only one that has been sort of successful so far- and it's because I bought a ton of beads from the dollar store, and I have a bunch of old necklaces without chains or that are broken, so i am recommissioning them into new jewellry- I've made 4 things so far- two necklaces and two bracelets, and they match :D
Things I have done so far:
1. Watched the new Starkid productions show : Starship!
I liked it, but didn't like it at the same time. I got kind of bored with it about half way through. But the puppetry was brilliant, as well as the special effects. And Lauren Lopez is a really awesome actress :D I missed her when I watched MAMD
2. Learned most of the words to the albums Begin to Hope by Regina Spektor and Vices and Virtues by Panic! At the Disco. My favourite song on Begin to Hope is Apres Moi. Probably because it's not too vocally demanding like Regina Spektor's songs tend to be, and I can sing it pretty well without much trouble. My favourite song on Vices and Virtues is let's kill tonight- but I think that's probably because I would like to see an AMV (anime music video) made with it to Higurashi no naku koro ni
3. I've been watching Higurashi no naku koro ni. It's pretty spooky, and it doesn't help me when I get nightmares easily... but I've just finished season one.
