ride my bike year round (read all 2 entries…)
Ugh 2 weeks ago

I love my bike, I love biking! But it’s getting cold and I just don’t have the money or motivation to actually buy all the gear I need to stay warm but not sweaty on my way to school. I’ve just gotten busy and I’ve been doing things after school at night too so I’ve just started driving. The problem is that I live like 2-4 miles from campus and the road I have to ride on is a car-packed highway. I don’t want to A) get hit by a car as I’m riding home at night or B) slip on ice and get run over in the winter.
If I get a bike to keep on campus and ride it around then I’ll call this year a success and maybe try again next year.



Record an album
Not sure if it counts... 2 weeks ago

I recorded an acoustic EP in my room and named it ‘The Untold Story” then I put it online (http://kristybrannon.com/) for my friends to download for free.
I think I’m gonna keep trying. I want a real album with good quality and cds and promotions and a tour and a band. But it’s a start.



Learn Portuguese
Taking a class! 3 weeks ago

And well, its alright. for me, portuguese is harder than arabic, because it has cognates and so everyone assumes I already speak spanish (or french or italian) and that I know all those words anyway. Well, I don’t so I need to work on my vocabulary but otherwise it isnt bad so far. I really like it. Sometimes it’s hard because if I can’t think of a word in Portuguese I substitute the arabic word and that just sounds silly.
