Last Night on Earth

I've completed another task! Played a game I've never played before. This one was actually unintentional. A day or two after I created the list, I went to my boyfriend's house for his and his sister's birthday party. Once everyone had eaten dinner, finished the (cup)cake(s), and all that good stuff, the young'ns decided to play Last Night on Earth, a board game about zombies. Because it sounded interesting, I decided to join.

I never play board games with scenarios and characters and the works because, well, because I hardly get the chance to. I did once attempt playing Arkham Horror, but sat there confused the majority of the time. Last Night on Earth, however, was a lot more simple and fun. Also I played a hot nurse named Becky. ;)


The zombies won, btw.

Trying New Things (List)

Here is my list of things I want to try this year. Some tasks were borrowed from other websites/projects and some are specific to me. I may add more bullets as I think of them, and I'll be crossing off each one I have done. Feel free to do any of these yourself and let me know how they went.
  • Watch at least 5 movies at Laemmle's Theater
  • Don't eat out for a week
  • Say "yes" to something I wouldn't normally do
  • Write nerdfighter notes
  • Wake up early even though I don't have to
  • Play a game I've never played before  (x)
  • Watch classic movies that I still haven't seen
  • Compliment as many people as I can and smile at everyone I see
  • Write a letter to myself to open in 10 years
  • Catch up with an old friend
  • Read a magazine targeted at the opposite gender or a readership different to me
  • Dress up on a regular day
  • Donate to a good cause or volunteer somewhere
  • Read a book I've owned for a long time, but still haven't read
  • Get on a bus and go to the final destination
  • Try a kind of entertainment that people would normally think is out of my character
  • Order food at restaurants that I wouldn't normally eat (NO PESTO OR PASSION FRUIT)
  • For fuck's sake, get my driver's license
  • Try new recipes (I rarely cook, so all recipes are new. Should be fun!) (x) (x)

Trying New Things

First blog post of 2012!

I've always been bad at keeping up with my blogs. I even forgot to post my most recent video here. But that's okay because more videos and/or blog posts are to come!

Inspired by my favorite YouTuber, Rosianna, I am going to try new things this year and document them. While I won't be taking part in the New Year Revolution project, I thought I'd compile a list of experiences I want to try this year. I have a few ideas in mind, but haven't made the actual list yet. It'll be on my next blog post, and I'll cross each experience/accomplishment off as I complete it. I'll be documenting each of these on a video or blog, which I will be sure to post here. If anyone wants to join me, feel free to use my list or make one of your own.

Looking forward to sharing my experiences with you guys!

Last coffee shop visit: Panera (if that counts), Chai Latte.
