Snowflake Challenge 2022 - 2
Jan. 3rd, 2022 02:06 pm Challenge #2
In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
Strangely in the first post I mentioned about goals for the coming year, while also saying ‘I bet it comes up in snowflake’ and, well, here we are. Thankfully it was just a brief thing so I can go more in depth with goals here.
So the goals I mentioned in that post was read stuff, watch stuff and game stuff so that’s where I’ll go in here.
Read
A few months back I started a book of short stories called Nightmare Yearnings, which caught my interest cause it’s horror stories and some of them are queer. I got it around Halloween with he internet to read it, but everything went crazy and I lost focus (and then it became too dark to read at my usual reading time). So my intention was to get back to that… but it seems to have been moved at some point and now I dunno where it is, damnit.
I’m also intending to read more of the High Republic novels because I’m so far behind at that. I’ve got about… Three, at least to read so with Nightmare Yearnings awol I’m gonna start Test Of Courage.
(I also have a backlog of Star Wars novels to read, but high republic is the priority)
I’ve got a few things on kindle to read to. It’s mostly mum that uses the account so it’s annoyingly filled of the stuff she reads (amazin let us split accounts between users please) but I have Chlorophobia and Untouched at least to read on there, (funnily both seem to have similar themes)
I also intend to read more on ao3, I have a bunch of tabs there to read (as well as some marked for laters). Annoyingly though safari on my pad keeps having issues and losing tabs randomly which is annoying (has anyone had this issue and knows how to sort it?) It keeps losing the most recent ones randomly, which tends to be fic tabs.
I’ve also got some magazines to read through, as well as the newer Star Wars encyclopaedia part work.
Watch
I have a load of to watch lists of doom on various things sop which I want to get through. So here’s some of the main ones. (I’ve sure I’m missing stuff)

*Noroi: I wanna rewatch it again, because it’s awesome
*Theres a bunch of other films on there too, but I dunno if I have any priorities
YouTube
*I wanna watch more of Quackity’s jackbox gods cause they’re always so funny (stream a new one Quackity please and thank)
*I wanna watch through the rest of the DreamSMP lore streams. I’ve only seen the prison break and the L’Manburg one where Wilbur gets tnt happy. I’m thinking of watching the red banquet next since it’s about 45 minutes
Game
I’ve got both an Xbox and Nintendo switch, both with a bunch of games I need to work on.
For the switch I need to finish Skyward Sword, as well as Pokemon Diamond, which I wanna finish before legends comes out. I also wanna do more of Cadence Of Hyrule and Mario and Rabbids, and Hyrule Warriors. And also I wanna get back on Starlink and Steamworld Quest. (As well as Story of Seasons and Super Mario sunshine)
There’s a few on the switch too that I’ve got but not started. These are: Agent A, Best Friend Forever, Doctor Who The Lonely Assassins, Journey of the broken circle, omen exitio, ni no kuni.
On Xbox there’s a bunch I need to finish. Assassins Creed Valhalla, Close To The Sun, Death’s Door, Doctor Who Edge Of Reality, ESO Deadlands, Fenyx Rising, Guardians of the galaxy (which I started but haven’t gone on much), Spiritfarer (I finished the main game but I’ve not gone on the updates which I know will give me feels), The Council.
These are some I need to start. Alba A Wildlife Adventure, Control, Key We,
Lost In Random, Sonic Adventure 2, The Assembly, The Sinking City. And I’m sure for both of these there’s a fair few that I’ve forgotten to add. Oops.
As a general other thing I also wanna try and get that Lego Mario question mark block, because it looks so cool.
I’m sure I have other goals beyond those things but nothing really comes to mind. This has ended up being pretty long, oops.
***
Yesterday ended up being a pretty lazy which is good because it’s been pretty wet and grey. I did end up watching No Time To Die, but I won’t say my thoughts in case someone hasn’t seen yet. (Though I will say Q having a date with a guy made me squee a bit)
Other than that I watched a few streams. First was one streaming a show called Bee and Puppykitty, which certainly went in a different direction then I expected from the name (it’s got Adventure Time vibes). Then there was Ranboo doing a scary game, which was funny if only because of the issues at the start. Last was another stream of a show, Total Drama, which I’d not seen until a few nights ago and it’s also different from what I would’ve expected.
So one of my goals above is to game more and at actually managed to accomplish some of that last night. In the run up to Christmas I won a game called Teacup. (I actually won a choice of games and went for that cause I’d played the demo). The game is very cute and sweet, it’s a very laid back kind of game for the most part and the puzzles are fairly simple (plus it’s easy to get all the achievements). I’d say the only downside to it was that it’s short. I was able to finish it in the night, probably in just over an hour. Still, it was a very sweet experience.
Shortly after Ranboo’s stream finished Quackity put up his vlog from his recent uk trip and it’s super funny and sweet. Between recording his first meeting with George, as well as confirming he was there for That tiktok that George did, Jack having DNF on his computers, then meeting Tommy (and not having his side of the convo so having what he could remember as text to speak) and then Wilbur picking him an outfit…it was all so funny. And then him and George went mini golfing in a Dino park and that looked so cool (and there was someone else doing the filming so I wonder who). It’s hinted there’s stuff that’s ‘a story for another time’ so I’m curious what that could mean and hope there’s a part 2.
And aww Sapnap being so cute at it being one year living with Dream. (Especially after him being filthy during the recent valorant stream he did)
Today I’ve got nothing really in mind. I wanna just take it easy and snuggle. I also wanna try and go through other snowflake posts (I failed this weekend but hope to more today or tomorrow). I’m hoping to fic some but then I’ve said it before and gotten distracted or blocked. I’m gonna go on animal crossing soon though to do my daily stuff on it. And I wanna finish the special features on destiny of the daleks tonight too.
Hope everyone has a good day though.
