What I Did this Weekend #1

Happy Easter! This weekend I didn’t do too much, but wanted to do a quick recap of what I did end up digging into.

  1. Listened to some old podcasts. It’s not secret that I really enjoy listening to podcasts. I could go on and on about them and probably will, but this weekend I listened to episode number 28 of the R.S.V.P podcast and then number 96 of the Erasable podcast. Both of these episodes were pretty deep into their catalogs, but I happened not to have listened to them yet, so that’s why I started with those.
  2. In my most recent post I shared a few of the projects that I’m currently working on. Working on that many projects is awesome and requires a level of organization and planning that is necessary to keep them going so while listening to those podcasts I did some good ole project planning with my favorite analog tools.
  3. I talked to my friends! I’m super fortunate to have some really awesome friends many of whom I’ve known for a long time and so during this period of time I’ve been able to make sure to talk to them regularly.
  4. Surprisingly or not surprisingly, I’m on a quest to pursue my polyglotism more seriously. With that in mind, I spent a few hours working through various Spanish language learning workbooks. I have a list of languages which I hope to learn and am focusing on Spanish because it’s most familiar to me and will begin working on others within the next few months.

Usually weekends are also a big time for me to practice, but I decided to take a few days away from the guitar and plan on hitting it pretty hard this week. Looking forward to it.
