Reading the book that a movie you want to see/have seen Was adapted from

It is very fulfilling, and it expands your understanding of both texts so well!

Brian - jeremy cooper

I love anything Fitzcarraldo. A sweet, short book about Brian, an old-ish man, a bit of a loner, who experiences community for the first time at the BFI.

Re-reading The great gatsby

I just finished, it’s been so long old sport!! Everyone feels differently about the book but it’s impossible to forget reading it. A polarizing story. “Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone, just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”

PAPER COLLAGES

I love doing collages, cuz all you really need are magazine cutouts and glue. There's a very low barrier to entry, skill-wise AND supply-wise, unlike painting. Digital collages are fun too, but I try to have less screentime by doing the paper ones. If I want to re-use pieces instead of gluing them down permanently, sometimes I'll just take a picture of the current arrangement to immortalize it, and then start over on a new composition. That way, I don't have to constantly buy new magazines to get new cutouts. This is one of my favorite ones I've done so far:

let go of your old tastes

i always get stuck choosing which stuff to watch/read/get into next when i look at my huge former watchlists & TBR's. a lot of items are things i put on there years ago and never got around to, so usually by the time i check the list again, my tastes have totally changed. i realized it was hard to get myself excited or motivated about half the stuff i put on there anymore, but i felt indebted to knocking it out anyway just because it was on the list. i'd recommend letting your current feelings/impulses take the wheel, and trust that you'll come back around to any of the other options if they're right for you later on.
