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.
