101 in 1001 Days Update

29/101

41. Watch season 7 of Buffy.

I would say I rate this around the middle of the pack. Not as meh as 5, had the super-advantage of Kennedy. Also some seriously creepy moments.

Still don't like what happened with Spike (the end was cool, though, but the whole thing was... I dunno. Really?).

28. Finish the 50 Book Challenge 2008.

Favorite book of the year: Oooh, tough. World War Z and Fledgling were both excellent. I will never stop recommending Pratchett books, The Dresden Files, or the Kushiel series by Jacqueline Carey.

40. Read all the Shakespeare plays I haven't read.

Of the ones I read, I'd say Henry V was probably my favorite. I liked Cymbeline also.

Favorite history: Henry V
Favorite tragedy: Hamlet (I'm a simple soul)
Favorite comedy: Much Ado About Nothing


Full list of goals here.

YAY! And you didn't even have to dig out the Babysitters Club books to make 50 :P.

What do you want to study when you go back to school?

It's true! Honestly, I bet the plays are largely shorter than your average BSC book, though more difficult to read ;)

Massage therapy. (Making it the third of three different programs. :P But I don't really see myself going back to school for English. I mean, possibly I guess, but...)
