It's been a while, but I'm slowly making progress.
Task 15: Attend a film festival
So this one is kind of awkward. I attended the Sillicon Valley film festival this year and saw a movie called The Purple Onion. It was terribad. I use the word "terribad" to try and make light of a truly uncomfortable and unfortunate situation. I dragged a new friend to see this movie with me, thinking oh, a comedy, only to find a movie about a stalker who has an olfactory fetish who may or may not be involved in an incestuous relationship. Now, you're talking to a girl who watched a movie about a kidnapper and pedophile (Michael was the name of the film) in a film festival a few years ago and thought it was one of the best films she's ever seen. So no, I don't stray away from the taboo. But seriously? This film made no sense, for one, and for two, was just BAD. I feel bad saying it was so bad, as the people who made it obviously put time and effort into it, but come on now, bad. Bad bad bad bad bad. Bad.
Task 88: Keep a change jar and don't take from it for a year
I have a change jar (or rather, change tupperware) from February 3, 2013. I'll probably just keep adding to it.
I owe myself $20 for these tasks.

Day 373: Slowly, Ever So Slowly
...making progress!
Task 78: Attend a make up or hair show
I recently attended the LA 2014 IMATS! It was an incredible experience which left me feeling motivated and inspired. I spent a bit of money building my still-not-complete kit, but more importantly, I left feeling like this could be a thing for me. I'm now looking into going to make up school next year, should my plans to return to university life not pan out. It's good to have a back up that you're excited about, right?
Oh, and I saw Jeffree Star at the IMATS. Very fucking cool. Mind my language.......
What's next on the task list?
Task 15: Attend a film festival - I signed up to volunteer for a film festival here in Silicon Valley. We'll see if it pans out. Admittedly, not what I meant by "attend" by it still counts, and I hope to have enough time to at least see one movie!
That's all I have planned for now. There's lots of tasks I *could* complete, given the time, but I just don't have it right now with my CIDESCO program and college applications. Well, I do, I just don't want to do anything on my days off, if we're being honest.
Anyways, until next time!

Day 347: Viva
Task 9: Go to Las Vegas
Task 33: Watch a Cirque du Soleil show
Task 65: Visit an aquarium
COMPLETED! I went to Las Vegas for New Years with some of my girls. We had an amazing time. We saw shows (Cirque du Soleil's Ka, Clair Sinclair's Pin up, and Penn & Teller), we partied at the Venetian on New Year's Eve, and we gambled (and lost). It was an amazing time. I'd add some pics, but I took zero! It was about being in the moment. That said, the other ladies on the trip took pictures and I'm sure I'll have some to post when they throw theirs up on the internet.
I'm growing a little discouraged about my list. Some things aren't happening at the pace I'd like them to. I think I need to print out my list and hang it somewhere to remind myself that hey, I have goals that I need to achieve! I'm only 21% completed with my list. I need more results!
We'll work on it.
Completed from my original list:
Task 51: Touch a sting ray
Task 33: Watch a Cirque du Soleil show
Task 65: Visit an aquarium
