30 before 30- #20 Jaws
Yes, these last two 30 before 30 are a theme. For this movie, I decided to just to Hastings and see if I could get a used copy for cheap and if I didn’t like it I would give it to dad. I was able to find a cheap copy (and the Silence and Vashta Nerada figurines but that’s not relevant) and the midget, mom, and I sat down to watch the original shark attack movie. Don’t be me, don’t wait so long to see Jaws. I had a lot of fun, and did not know until the midget made a comment that this was Spielberg’s second film. The biggest surprise for…

30 before 30 – #19 Backdraft
One of my favorite places to go as a child was Universal Studios in Hollywood. It’s still a favorite now, but it was especially exciting when I was little. I loved the tram tour and the Back to the Future ride. I would do 2 days worth of homework in advance so I could go with dad when company was in town. Or go whenever I had the chance. But there was always an internal struggle, because I knew ‘the price’. I would have to survive the Jaws part of the tram and go to the Backdraft experience/show. Jaws…while scary, wasn’t as bad because half the time the shark didn’t even…

30 before 30 – #18 The Shawshank Redemption
This is an exceptionally well crafted movie, and I’ve found that as I let some time go past since I watched it I have little to add to those thoughts. I can see why it is considered such a big deal. I did however appreciate knowing before hand how it ended; I don’t think I would have enjoyed it as much as I did if I hadn’t known it had a good ending.

30 before 30 – #17 Skinny Jeans
I specifically wrote down that I only need to try on skinny jeans, I did not need to buy a pair to considered this one fulfilled. And that I would give it a serious go as in try on different sizes until I found one that fit. And the proof of success. This ended up being a bit more of an adventure than I intended as I dodged the noodles that were on the ground. Having tried a few pairs on, I’m still going to stick to my boot cut jeans. As much as the ability to easily tuck my jeans into my boots is tempting…I just did not…

30 before 30- #15 Silence of the Lambs
Source: Empire Online I promised myself when I started this project I would not stress out about it. I have a tendency to be a bit obsessive when I’m goal oriented…and I refused to let 30 before 30 become anything but an enjoyable challenge. That said, with August upon us and oh-my-word a little over 2 months to complete the project, I did a bit of editing to the list. That is to say, took a few items off that would take more than two months and added a few items. In the revised version I added seeing Silence of the Lambs. This particular edit has been brought to you…

Lost and Found: A Fairy Tale
Available on Kindle Another re-release from me! My second novel Lost and Found: A Fairy Tale with a newly designed cover by Annie J Designs. Lost and Found: A Fairy Tale is a follow up to Worlds Collide: A Fairy Tale, while many of the characters from the first book are present, it focuses more in on Jer’s daughter Katrina and a new character. Whereas the first book it is debated whether or not it is science fiction or fantasy, Lost and Found definitely falls into the fantasy category. I wanted to expand more on the ‘dunami world and the creatures that lived there. And expand on different cultures beyond the one of Karipol. To…
