This year is going by way too fast.
Books I enjoyed:
Tokyo by Graham Marks
I will read anything about Tokyo! This is a slender book, both in size and plot but I didn’t really care as it’s basically a lightweight travelogue of Tokyo and thus brings the nostalgia. Blub!
Eldest by Christopher Paolini
Part 2 of the trilogy – still very easy to guess the plot twists and the writing is still a bit ‘teenager being pretentious’ but fun anyway.
The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan
And another part 2, though there are like 15 books in this set. Getting a lot more creepy and epic but I’m not sure it’s going to hold my interest for another ten books.
Good films I watched:
– Eagle vs Shark
Yay, I actually saw a good film. This was pretty cute and only a little bit too quirky. And sad too. Aw.
Projects completed:
– Cakeify & Friends plushies (will blog them soon!)
– New thank you cards
– Lots of prototyping and new products
– DaWanda shop translated into German (thanks to my mum!)
– Website/shop for Sarey Poppins (not yet launched)
– Etsy guest curating!
Interesting new blogs in my RSS:
– Colors City (pretty crafts and a very enjoyable Thailand trip report)
– The Ack Attack! (Funniest LOST blog evar. How have I managed to miss this?)
Exciting things I purchased:
– LOST S3 on DVD for my mega rewatching

Another quiet month and not much to say about it. I seem to have spent the month answering enquiries and sending off SOR orders so hopefully that will all come back as cash in the next few months.
