As memory (and photographic evidence) seems to escape me, this was the week I...
Studied more Japanese for Busy People Vol. 1 (List item #035) with the help of Alfie, who remained unimpressed by my telling him about buraun-san no ichinichi.
Continued to enter competitions (#049). It's getting harder to find new ones.
Posted off eight of the postcards (List item #058), though have yet to hear if any of them arrived at their destinations. I have two left to send and not sure who to send them to. Any takers?
Went to etc Magazine's Homes, Gardens & Lifestyle show with a friend. Separate post coming up for this trip.
Rediscovered my addiction for DreamSelfy, a site where you can create and dress your own dolls. There are zillions of options so it's one for wasting time on.
Volunteered, as usual!
Completed a new task from The List!
024. Enter a writing competitionI discovered this whilst I was browsing the web for prize draws to enter (list item #049: Enter 10 competitions/prize draws every day for 1 month). This isn't counting as one of my competitions for #049, because I can cross out #024 instead!
The competition is being run by SFX and is open to UK residents. Entrants must write a short-story about zombies, not exceeding 1,500 words. The closing date is 29th April (my birthday!)
I wrote the beginning at 1 a.m. when I couldn't sleep and the idea struck me. Then I finished it up today!
Glad to have surfed upon this one. Usually when I find writing competitions they aren't for a subject matter that inspires me!
Read Yes Man by Danny Wallace, which I thoroughly enjoyed. May write about it another time.
So despite being another fairly quiet week, it's been a productive one.
