52 DVD Challenge --2013

Total: 20/52 DVDs

Wow, epic fail. This one can be traced to me checking out more DVDs from the library this year (I got hooked on Teen Wolf and Justified, and I also watched a lot more movies than I have in a long time) and making my friends listen to Welcome to Night Vale for a month and a half instead of watching DVDs on our DVD nights.

I'm going to try this again next year, in part because I've started up cross stitching again in a major way recently and I'm determined to finish the medium-sized project I started 10 years ago or so. I've been stitching my way through my TV shows, so hopefully I can squeeze some DVDs in there as well.

Stuff I watched in 2013:

( TV DVDs )

( Feature Film DVDs )

10,000 Page Challenge -- 2013

Total: 9,079/10,000 pages

I'm a little disappointed, but I discovered last year that I have a hard time motivating myself to read when I'm not really enjoying the book, and I hit a record number of books I just didn't like very much this year. Why didn't I just give up on them? Some were books in a series I have otherwise enjoyed, some were by authors I have otherwise enjoyed, and some were books that were recommended to me and I kept waiting for the awesomeness I'd been promised to turn up (spoiler alert: it didn't).

I'll probably track what I read next year just because it's kind of fun to see what I've read over the course of the year, but next year's goal will be slightly more nebulous and difficult to quantify. I want to read some things I've been meaning to read for a long time but just never got around to.

Stuff I read in 2013:

( Books/E-Books )

( Graphic Novels/Manga/Manhwa )

( Zines/Fic )
