Doing all the things.

It has been a long while since I did a post. I decided to setup a a living document after reading what I have seen on http://livingafi.com/doing-all-the-things/. His list is pretty cool. This is my version. I would probably add onto it along the course of my life. I hope to be able to do at least some if not all of the things that I have thought of.

The Thing

Write some actual songs
I used to have some nice tunes which suddenly come to me at odd times. Need to hinge on those and make something out of it.
Media: video games
No end to this list of games which keep coming out. Infinity, wow, halo 5, zelda, shovel knight and some Wii2 games. I pretty much enjoyed playing nintendo wii now and then. Its pretty interactive in nature
Media: books
Want to finish up anne rice series which is pretty hard to find. Time to search in libraries to fish them out.
