Failed it this year. Alas so much crap was going on around me so I couldn't finish it. I'm still going to try again next year and I'm going to go and edit the novel. It was fun when I was writing it but I have learnt a few lessons along the way.
- Never write in bed with the TV at reach, it's not conducive to writing and it distracts you.
- Never don't write unless you have no option, the thought of then having to write two days worth of words or more in one day is horrible.
- Never let the crap in everyone else's lives mash with yours, by the time you get home or the weekend comes the last thing you want to do is write. All I wanted to do was sit and curl into a ball.
Picture a Day - Fat Mum Slim
I didn't even complete this. It might have had something to do with me removing the list from the front of my phone and my lack of energy with everything else going on in my life.
Movies
Twilight, Braking Dawn Part 2:- Loved this film, have seen it three time in about a week with three different people. 1st time with my mum and sister, 2nd time with a friend and 3rd time with a colleague / friend. Every time it was a different experience. So many different reactions. I also saw so many things the third time that made me laugh, but not things that should be funny. The first time I didn't really notice anything, the second time though I noticed more things. The the third time I noticed so many things that made me laugh I was laughing at things I shouldn't have. Granted other people must have notice them as well as they were also laughing.
Not Movie per sae but Cineworld have just released their Premium Unlimited card meaning I get a shinny new card, 25% off food and drink, free 3D movies. They also now allow you to book online too which will make it easier when going away to the movies with my family and friends who prefer to book.
I know I've been to see other movies but I just don't remember them / when I went to see them and never took notes.
Books
Naked Pray - A colleague at work gave this to me as she said she thought I would like it, and I did like it. It was good, it took me a long time to finish reading it but I did finish it and I did enjoy it. It had a different way of writing from what I have known in the past.
Now Is Good (previously published as Before I Die) - I love love love loved this book. I watched the movie first and then found out it was a book not that long after I watched it. It made me sad and happy all at the same time. Ace book, highly recommended.
TV Shows
The Walking Dead, Season 3 - Just watched the latest episode while typing this. It was so good, it's become somewhat of an addiction of mine of late.
Roswell - I'm watching this on Netflix just now and have also become obsessed with it. It's funny that I remember snippets of it but never realised how much of what I remember was in the first few episodes. Another series I highly recommend getting on DVD or watching online through Netflix or Love Film or anything like that.
Merlin - I love this show and am extremely disappointed that they are cancelling it. I've become addicted to the love and the magic of the show and how every story is different. I also may have a slight crush on Bradley James who plays Arthur.
