New & Fun Things I Did in February!
Back again for another installment of recording the new and fun things I do in my personal life each month! This month was very film-heavy, for whatever reason, but I had lots of fun
Started catching up on the many seasons of Bake Off I missed
Went to a writing workshop
Many cups of coffee and sweet treats
After over two years of mulling over the idea, I finally bought myself a pair of roller skates on Vinted (you can catch my first time taking them for a spin in my March edition!)
Lots and lots of journaling
I made a zine out of one of my short poems
Learned a new zine fold/structure
Started getting more into Substack (currently just reading, but considering posting my own stuff at some point)
Saw a screening of Happy Together (1997) at a small cinema club with a friend (this was our first time hanging out together outside of our volunteering gig)
Played an RPG one-shot in a system designed by my friend
Watched a special screening of Jennifer's Body for Valentine's Day
Called a friend from the states
Went back to my monthly Blood on the Clocktower group
Went to a zine launch event
Went to a friend's birthday party (we watched DCOMs and ate loads of classic American cinema snacks)
Saw two student plays - one tragedy, one comedy (and my friend directed one of them!)
I sometimes wind up struggling with these lists because I actually get to do some really cool things for work which I enjoy on a personal level, but I'm committed to emphasizing only that which I do in a non-work capacity.
