Just a Minute (February 2011)
Feb. 28th, 2011 05:06 pmOn the last day of every month, I take Just a Minute to reflect on what I’m currently up to.
Yo-yo-ing… with everything personal this month. Talk about a chaotic month of emotions. It’s been a little crazy, but hopefully I’ve got a good grip on things now.
Listening… to Taylor Momsen’s band The Pretty Reckless. I’m not a fan of Taylor as an actress, but I am really surprised by how much I like The Pretty Reckless!
Planning… various weekend travels. I hit up Tianjin last weekend and next on the list is either Nanjing or Qingdao.
Reading… The Complete Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. I’ve finished A Study in Scarlet and have just begun The Sign of the Four. Very enjoyable so far; Holmes is quite a fascinating character study.
Researching… summer opportunities in Beijing, of the internship and teaching English variety. I have a few really cool things lined up, provided that everything falls into place. More about this later.
Hoping… to find a cobbler of sorts that can repair my broken high heeled boots. I bought these boots at a market in Hong Kong, and I wore them out when it was snowing one night and they just weren’t able to hold up to the winter weather. :(
Pining… after spring! I am tired of the dry, wintry Beijing weather. Although spring in Beijing means the arrival of sandstorms…
