Reading
Reading
- Read a bit more of Clariel by Garth Nix. I was having a bit of a hard time getting into it, but I think I'm mostly past that now.
- I started reading High Stakes and Bloody Business, an anthology of vampire whump stories the roommate was published in last year. I'd already read her story of course, but I'm enjoying the others as well!
- I started reading Dominicana by Angie Cruz, the current read for my work book club. I am uhhh not enjoying it. It's not a genre I particularly like anyway, but the family dynamics and domestic violence is especially not. Our meeting got postponed two weeks and I'm not sure if I'll try to finish or just DNF bc I'm not even halfway yet.
- Firmly back into reading fic, yay! I got some excellent gifts for Yuletide and have been reading my way through the rest of the collection (rec list later!). I've also been reading a lot of JunDylan from ThamePo and NutHong, and having a good time :D Currently I'm reading a NutHong college AU series called And If They Talk... by
firstknpn .
- The roommate and I finished Project Alpha. So much fun! I loved seeing the boys getting more comfortable with each other. And of course the performances were great.
- The roommate and I watched Alpha Roommates, a follow up for Project Alpha about the winners going on a bonding trip before debuting as a band. So freaking cute!
- The roommate and I finished Idol Energy. Very fun, and I enjoyed seeing Perses since I didn't know any of them before.
- The roommate ad i started watching Cherry Magic. I've read most of the manga and watched the Japanese drama when it first aired, so I was really excited for this. And I have not been disappointed! So cute and sweet and funny.
- The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Goddess Bless You From Death. The spookiness and mystery continues to be banger.
- The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episodes of Me and Thee. Love this show so much, ugh. I'm sad it's going to be over soon :(
- The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Burnout Syndrome. Wild show, enjoying it a lot.
- The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Melody of Secrets. The mystery continues to deepen and hasn't really started to become more clear yet lol
- The roommate, best friend and I started watching Dare You to Death. A bit of a slow start imo, but I'm looking forward to more. Especially with so many actors I like!
- The roommate, best friend, and I started watching ThamePo Heart That Skips a Beat. A rewatch for the roommate and I, and still so good! Especially after watcing so much more LYKN stuff.
- I watched Thundercloud Rainstorm. A Korean BL this time! I'd been seeing a lot of it on tumblr that looked intriguing (D/S, cousin incest... the good stuff lol), and I did enjoy it quite a lot.
- I rewatched The Muppet Christmas Carol while I was home for Christmas. A very good movie, of course.
- We also watched Five Golden Rings, a Hallmark Mysteries Christmas movie. I was mostly there for Holland Roden, but it was a pretty good movie.
- I watched Nomura's Giant Swarm, a documentary about Giant Nomura Jellyfish taking over the waters around Japan and causing a lot of problems for the fishing industry there. Very interesting!
- The roommate and I went to see Anaconda in theaters. It was pretty much just as expected, which is to say I had a great time :)
- As per usual, I've listened to a lot of t-pop, LYKN in particular.
- Caught up on some more Ouija Broads episodes. I'm really glad they're back posting even if there's a lot of time between episodes!
- Also started catching up on some Happier with Gretchen Rubin episodes. I really enjoy their stuff around New Year's, with goals and words of the year and all that.
- Idk if this really counts in this category, but I started listening to Pimsleur's Thai, which is an audio language learning system. This one's for Thai, obviously lol Because I am determined to learn! I did the first lesson and it was pretty hard, so we'll see how it goes.
- I started writing one of my overdue holiday ficlets. It's for a fandom I don't know so uhhh it's taking some time.
- Wrote a poem.
- I started writing a fic for Thundercloud Rainstorm because... well, I really needed some canon divergence mpreg lol
