RISE, READ, RELAX
Jul. 25th, 2017 06:39 pmso it's weird to think about but i've actually consumed a lot of storytelling this summer? the months have flown by and while waiting and despairing and searching for a job i've read/watched/listened to a lot! or well, a lot for myself, that is. i'm sure i'd lose any type of binge race out there.
i guess a list of things, then?
Podcasts:
- The Adventure Zone
(ALL caught up and i'm in LOVE and i am CRYING)
Books:
- A Court of Wings and Ruins by SJM
(grossgrossgross i'm glad it's over)
- Crocodile on the Sandbank / The Mummy Case by Elizabeth Peters
(reread and I love this series, however Extra Amelia is, so great)
- Winter by Marissa Meyer
- Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman
(this was the first physical book i read all summer, and honestly it felt SO GOOD to get back to that type of reading, having a book in my hand, and this book was SO GOOD, SO GOOD, SO AMAZING)
TV Shows
- Young Justice
- Supergirl
(on s2, reaaaaal disappointed, but i'll finish it)
- The Flash
(on s2, but binging w the fam, so i'll probs finish by the end of this month?)
- Star Trek The Next Generation
(just a few episodes, so does this really count?)
Films
- Wonderwoman 2017
Games
- Mass Effect 2
(finished and loved, still haven't bought ME3)
- DA: Inquisition
(NOT finished, but at least I'm at Skyhold?)
Comics
- Batman: Year One / The Long Halloween / Dark Victory / The Man Who Laughs / The Killing Joke / A Death in the Family
- Robin: Year One / Batgirl: Year One / Catwoman: When in Rome
+ + +
and that's it so far. not a lot, right? well, my kind of "a lot"? i haven't had a lot to do, and zero friends around while at home, so there's that. that's why it feels like a small amount.
i finally got a job, but i probably won't work that many hours, so i probably won't earn that much money in this upcoming month before i go back to school. i'm so disappointed. i wish i had gotten a job earlier this summer. i planned, i searched, but nothing. a few interviews, but no callbacks or hirings, until now, of course. i made mistakes, and i want to punch myself about it, but whatever!
Planning on finishing:
- The Flash / Supergirl
- Scream Queens s2 (only a few episodes!!! just a few!)
- the fourth Amelia Peabody book
- DA:I
- Batman foundational comics! as in before new52!
- How to Get Away With Murder
Planning on Starting:
- Justice League / Justice League Unlimited
- Batman v Superman movie
- Batman / Batfam comics, that's it, all of them (jk but then not jk)
- Six of Crows
AND I REALLY NEED TO JUST BINGE WATCH ELEMENTARY, BUT I GUESS NOT THIS YEAR?? i've held it off for like two years now?
anyway, so i've decided to get into DC Comics - one day i got the itch to read them, and then i decided "fuck it, y not" and i started! i have three lists i'm going off of, but i'm so ready to be "caught up" / read the new comics, but i don't just want to wiki search everything. so, this is gonna take a while. high-key also wanna read Superboy comics, but i'm focusing on the batfam first. i just- love- Superboy's- design, the punk-ish design that is, with the round glasses? don't know if he's a DICK, but i'll FIND OUT. i'm excited. also hella daunted but keepin on plowin. IM DOING THIS I CANT BELIEVE IT. i even started a dc comics sideblog on tumblr even tho . . .i never have any thoughts to contribute/of value? whatevs, im excited.
so there's that update, i'm tired now.
ok quick exit, bye now.
