Wojtek: Soldier Bear.



Thought I'd drop off some music from the beginning of the summer. Enjoy, guys.

Perth - Bon Iver
Beth/Rest - Bon Iver
The Letter - Joe Cocker
There Will Be Tears - Frank Ocean
Bigger Than Us - White Lies
Someone Like You - Adele
Wildfire - SBTRKT ft. Drake & Little Dragon
Rolling in the Deep (Jamie Xx remix) - Adele ft. Childish Gambino

What are you looking forward to this summer? New job? Summer blockbusters? Lay it out there, guys. Albums, concerts, camping trips, the Stanley Cup returning to Canada, whatever.

Enter the Summer

I think it feels a little bit like the appropriate time for a summer to-do list. Partly because it's now the summer, partly because I've got nothing else to be doing, and partly because I need to picture what I will be doing to get me through this dull night. I've forgotten how to be this dull.

1. Watch 48 of the top 100 films of IMDb:
Which is actually closer to 47.5, since I've got American Beauty jamming in the background.
2. Read three books:
Which is actually closer to 2.5, because I'm midway through one now.
3. Write something lengthy:
Like a short story or whatever. But on a related note...
4. Write at least 3 letters:
Like, legitimate, real letters. At least one is headed to France.
5. Watch Community:
I've got, like, this huge thing with Donald Glover.

I've forgotten how to be this dull. I've probably been over-stimulating my brain recently. Lots of activity and business. If nothing else, it keeps my brain flowing steady. Seems about time for a quote, and since I'm watching this film...
"It's a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise yourself. Makes you wonder what else you can do that you've forgotten about."
This movie is shaping up. So is my night. Or week. So what's something you can do that you forgot about? Give it another run. You've got the time for it. Don't lie to yourself.

Don't lie to yourself. All it is is a waste of time. Because you can't move forward when you're doing that. Do you know what I mean? Just stuck in a little bit of a hiatus. Ever have that? Everything freezes for a time.

I'm out of steam.
