How I did it
How to see watchmen
It took me
2 months
It made me
Thrilled!

How I did it: I read about Watchmen in Empire magazine and thought it looked really interesting; my partner was also reading the graphic novel at the time, so we eagerly awaited the release and went to see it as soon as possible :)I thorougly enjoyed the film and when I've finished reading the graphic novel, I'm going back to see it again before it finishes in the cinemas!

How to get 100 people to 'sign' my petition for emiliakaarina to bring the green hair back :)
It took me
10 months
It made me

How I did it: We were inspired by photos of Emilia's green hair and decided that we couldn't possibly let her dye it another colour (although still a fan of the blue as well!). I invited other people to join me and encourage her to bring back the green hair, until she finally relented after 62 people signed our petition. OK, so I can't do the maths, but the 62 people who signed had the power of 100, so we can just skip past that bit :P Read how I did it…

go for a 30-minute run this month (read all 5 entries…)
17th June 2009 2 weeks ago

The average walking speed for a woman is 3 miles an hour, which is 20 minutes to the mile.

The distance that I’m jogging is 1/3 mile, so to walk it should take 6 mins 40 s on average.

Today’s time: 5 mins 29.76 s

go for a 30-minute run this month (read all 5 entries…)
Progress 2 weeks ago

I have been jogging twice in the last week, once last Thursday and once this evening. However, I can’t mark this goal as complete yet because I didn’t run for very long. Unfortunately, my stamina is really low and my fitness is poor, so I get too knackered after about 5 minutes (and that’s jogging, not a full-out sprint!). I’ve set myself a relatively short distance to do and recorded the time it took me and I’m going to try and reduce that time before adding to the distance.

So, it may take a while to do 30 minutes in one go. Perhaps, I should have set my sights a little lower when I set this goal, taking into account my awful level of fitness. Never mind – it’s set now, but it will take me longer than originally anticipated to complete this.
