One of my goals this year was to read more. In 2021, I was an ‘average’ reader, completing fourteen books. I set the same initial goal in January—at least one book a month—and, as of today, have exceeded my expectations. Maybe the person I was a few years ago would be disappointed, but I’m… Continue reading What I Read in 2022
This was an interesting year—musically. At the beginning of 2022, my listening habits were largely the same—always in the background. Whether I was cooking, driving, doing chores, or reading, I had music. In February, however, I let more silence into my life. I never used to like the quiet and music filled that void,… Continue reading My Favorite Music of 2022
I watched less television this year. Or, at least, it felt like it. Although we can still count the hours of episodes here as quite a few, I didn’t dive into the small screen like I have previously. For some shows, I tuned in weekly for new adventures. For others, I caught up or… Continue reading My Favorite TV Shows of 2022
I watched fewer movies this year. It wasn’t intentional or a choice, but—with nearly half the entries than 2021—I focused on other things. That said, I still watched 80 movies for the first time in 2022 and found some new favorites amongst them. I re-watched about 50 movies this year too. Thanks to OcTerror… Continue reading My Favorite Movies of 2022
With a full year of WILT under my belt, I can safely say I listened to a lot of music in 2021. Almost every day began with my latest obsession or a new album. I drove and walked to work with either the radio or a CD playing. I listened while cooking, cleaning, or… Continue reading My Favorite Songs of 2021
Over the past year, I’ve kept loose track via WILT of the albums I was obsessed with each month. A short term affair, however, does not automatically create a favorite album worthy of a year. This year featured a lot of powerhouse releases from some of my favorite artists, new debuts, and great finds from… Continue reading My Favorite Albums of 2021
If 2021 was the year where I was an average reader then it was also a year where I enjoyed more TV, movies, and music than before. I dove back into old favorites with new seasons and discovered shows that I’d somehow missed along the years, along with premieres. I binged. I tuned in.… Continue reading My Favorite TV Shows of 2021
October was a unique kind of exhausting, but music—in so many forms—kept me going. The month seemed to stretch on and pass by so quickly. Other than a few notable releases and discoveries, much of it was spent listening to favorite playlists (like my OcTerror Pumpkin Songs) and singles. This led to narrowing it… Continue reading What I’m Listening To: October 2021
If I had to describe my listening habits for this past August, it would be obsessive. It seemed like I found my favorite tracks within the first two weeks and listened to them on repeat, over and over, without the need or want to find something new. This, along with all of the additional albums… Continue reading What I’m Listening To: August 2021
May was a good month musically. Not only are artists releasing major bops in anticipation of summer vibes and charts, but a lot of songs fit well into this emotional midpoint of my life where so many things are ending, maybe beginning, or waiting. We’re still in our depressing lyrics, upbeat rhythm phase, still holding… Continue reading What I’m Listening To: May 2021
