Well, this was interesting. Also, two other completions!

"93. Make cookie-ception cookies (http://www.leawesome.com/2012/05/cookie-ception.html)"
Er...
Very blurry. This is what they look
like on the inside.
I'm afraid of these cookies.
In the recipe that I made (The outer coat, chocolate chips), it said that it made 3 dozen cookies. And how many cookies did I make? Six. So they're basically like a cookie that will immediately cause diabetes or obesity or something. >_< but they look good! And they taste good! (As you can see, I cut each cookie into 3 sections).


"16. Go to the Bloedel Reserve"
...
So pretty...
It's depressing. I've lived here for 13 years, and I didn't know that the Bloedel Reserve existed until a month ago...fail, fail, fail...
BUT IT'S SO PRETTY ;_;
(See blurry/terribly taken pictures on right)


"50. Paint my nails like flags."


Japanese, Polish, Lithuanian, Belgian, Finnish, Swiss, Dutch, Romanian, German, Italian.
Ja, I did this. ^^ it was fun~ except they look terrible, so I refuse to show them on here.


I made the kitchen messy.

"68. Cook all meals for an entire day."


I'm proud to say, I've completed this! The kitchen was very messy, though. My mom lectured me....hah.

He didn't have a sense of humor...

"100. Go to the hardware store and ask for striped paint"


I did this yesterday. Unfortunately, the man didn't have a sense of humor, so it went kind of like this:
Me: Excuse me, do you have any striped paint?
Him: Striped paint? What do you mean?"
Me: Y'know, striped paint. So you can paint stripes on your walls?
Him: You'd have to tape it off and paint them separately.
It was a disappointment, yes. But oh well, at least I completed it. My mom recorded it, but it was a terrible recording, so yeah.

I took a really cool photo. By mistake.


"81. Make smoothies"


First of all, screw the fact that it says "make smoothieS". I made a smoothie. Technically, that counts.                                                                              See? Doesn't that photo look awesome? It was actually a mistake...with the flash...I'd upload the actual photo, but it looks boring.
No, it's not that pink. It's a lighter pink, and it's made of strawberries, peaches, and cherry sorbet (or something...). And yes, I colour-coordinated it. Even though I don't even like the colour pink.

Why must British shows be so amazing?!

"32. Get into a new tv show, watch at least the whole first season."


Sherlock Holmes is freaking amazing. No such words can describe how amazing it is.
Yesterday (and today), my friend Elizabeth and I watched the first season on Netflix while drinking huge mugs of tea. It was very fun. ^^
But I dislike how the season ends. It's a huge cliffhanger and I can't get the second season on netflix and jfhdlkjfhsdkfj

"46. Celebrate a foreign holiday the way natives do."


Technically, we did this too. We celebrated Midsummers Eve (Norway's version) rather correctly- we had a bonfire, made up mock weddings (to pictures of Hetalia people...heh...), and yeah. Except I just realized that they celebrate it on the 23rd...who cares. And yes, I took pictures, but I don't feel like showing them. So yeah. xD

4- no creative title, I'm too lazy.

"4. Play more ukelele"

Being a shut-in has it's pros, huh? I've been playing more ukulele in the past three days then I have in the past three months (well, technically I've only had it since April 29th, so it hasn't been 3 months...). I've been sitting outside playing ukulele and hoping to complete number 57 (get a tan...which is, in fact, impossible for me). Do you want to hear the songs that I've been playing? I bet you do! I have an obsession with finger-picking right now...

For number 46, I was considering Midsummer Eve. But that's tomorrow, and I have no way to build a bonfire, so forget that. I'll figure out something else...
Also, I just got a new memory card for my camera, so now I'll be able to take pictures! Unfortunately, I'm really not photogenic right now (actually, I'm never photogenic), so the picture for this one is my beautiful ukulele. Next to my beautiful British flag pillow.

83- done!

"83. Learn how to say the alphabet backwards."


zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba...
I used a cute little song, which helped a lot. It's really weird, but cute~

Can I consider myself a foreign music fan yet?

Alexander Rybak, the winner of Eurovision
in 2009, from Norway.
"60. Become a fan of foreign music"


I didn't really know when to consider myself a fan...I've loved foreign songs for a while, but I never really considered myself a real fan of them. But I think I can now...here's a list of some of the foreign bands/artists that I like (I also followed Eurovision this year, which was very interesting):
~Alexander Rybak<3
~Jedward
~Gjallarhorn
~Värttinä
~Jónsi and Greta Salóme
~Sofia Jannok
~Poets of the Fall<3
~The Moon and the Nightspirit
~Sava
~Safura
~Jóhanna Guðrún Jónsdóttir
~Tsuumi Sound System
~Zaz
~Sóley
~One Direction
~Secret Garden
~Eldar & Nigar
~Yiruma
~Loreen

...ja. ^^
Alexander Rybak (I got my blog name from one of his songs...yeah, he's pretty freaking awesome. ^^) and Poets of the Fall are the best. You should listen to these songs:
(they really should've won Eurovision...D:<)
As Glynnis said, their hair makes them look like trolls. But they're freaking awesome~
~
Yeah. I guess I am considered a fan now. Anyways, right now I'm learning more German so I can check off number 1. I'm also working on a few others. Auf Wiedersehen! :)


Eurovision, the contest held in Europe every year.
I wish I could vote, but you have to live in Europe. D:<

Starting off easy~

"34. Change your voicemail to make it sound like you’re answering the phone."

I decided to start easy with this one. It was simple- and it'll be fun to see if people think I'm actually answering. Unfortunately, there's no way to take a picture of it (duh).
99 more to go, haha~

SUMMER!

It's finally summer. :D time to start my list~
