4 things #10

I'm back !!! It was a great week with my family at Cubiro, a small town in Lara State, here in Venezuela. I did everything I had planed: Ate a lot of good food (except goat), I took a lot of pictures (you can see a few here), had a great time with my family and I bought some nice handmade things (some for me, some for my girlfriend).

During the week I was away, I got I letter from the USA (I'll post about it later). I still don't know if I can send letters to America normally (I didn't have time to go to the post office, and I didn't get an answer yet to a mail that I sent to them).

So, this week I plan to:

1.- Write at least 2 letters.

2.- Get some new addresses on Postrcrossing and send the postcards.

3.- Update this blog more frequently.

4.- Keep updating my Flickr album.

Well, Christmas is almost here !!! I'm on vacation from my job, and these days the only things I'm doing is watching TV and taking some pictures. Talking about pictures, I finally began taking pictures for my project (I took the first one yesterday), the link to the set is here. This finishing week I did everything I planned to do, so that's nice.

This upcoming two weeks (yeah, 2 weeks, because I'm going on vacation and I won't be able to post next Sunday) I plan to:

1.- Eat LOTS of delicious food in the place I'll be visiting.

2.- Take LOTS of pictures of that new place.

3.- Spend good time with my family.

4.- Buy some nice handmade things in the town I'll be visiting.

Wait for the pictures !!!

4 things #8

This was a good week: I'm almost on vacation at my job (I'll work until Wednesday, and then start again on January 7th), and I bought some Christmas gifts for my dad and my sister (I still need to find something nice for my mother, I need to do it this coming week, before Christmas).

So this week I plan to:

1.- Put my girlfriend's gifts in a nice package.

2.- Buy a gift (or gifts) for my mother.

3.- Eat more Christmas food.

4.- Buy a couple of bottles of wine.

4 things #7

Well, although this wasn't a good week, I managed to do almost everything that I planned to do: I bought the ingredients for the "hallacas" (we prepared them today), I helped my girlfriend to choose a new camera (it's a Sony P&S) and I bought some postcards. I was looking for my birthday gift, but the online store that usually sells that kind of stuff will get it next week, so I have to wait.

This week I plan to:

1.- Take some Christmas pictures.
2.- Buy a gift for my sister.
3.- Buy a gift for my dad.
4.- Buy a gift for my mom.

4 things #6

Well, this week was a good one: I started reading a book (it isn't a new one, but one that I really like), today I bought something nice for my girlfriend (a nice Christmas gift with a good surprise, I hope to not scare her), I got a nice sticker for my car (it's a Ron Jon's Surf Shop sticker), and I got some nice ideas for my photo project (although I didn't take any picture of it yet).

This week I want to:

1.- Buy the ingredients for the "hallacas" (it's not a "want", it's a must).
2.- Find some nice postcards for my friends.
3.- Get my birthday gift (I know what I want, but I haven't found it yet).
4.- Help my girlfriend to choose a nice camera.

This finishing week I ate salad and fruits about 4 times each, so I did it. But I wasn't able to go out to practice street photography, and I think I'll be able to do it when I go on vacation (that's in a month). Talking about my new photographic project, I didn't take any pictures, but I've been developing some funny ideas (let me say that there are 2 characters: a dinosaur and a Stormtrooper).

This week I plan to:

1.- Start reading a new book.

2.- Buy some Christmas gifts for my girlfriend and my family (that will be next Sunday).

3.- Find a nice sticker for my car.

4.- Get more ideas for my photography project.

4 things #4

Well, this week I did the 4 things that I wrote last week: I practiced some Solid Works (actually I designed a cool mechanical piece in 3D), I practiced the Harris Shutter Effect (I didn't like the result, but I'll practice more), I drank tea every afternoon, and I didn't drink Coke.

So, this week I plan to do this:

1.- Eat salad at least 3 times.

2.- Eat a fruit at least 3 times.

3.- Go out and practice some street photography.

4.- Start a new photographic project (I already have a funny idea).

4 things #3

This week was better at finishing my goals: Washed my car, finished this book, wrote a letter (although I'm still preparing that small envelope with nice things) and found some white address labels (now I'll try to print something nice on them). Now, this week I plan to do this:

1.- Practice more with Solid Works.

2.- Practice the Harris Shutter Effect on GIMP or Photoshop (I already took the pictures).

3.- Drink a cup of tea every afternoon.

4.- Stop drinking Coke.

4 things #2

Well, this week I didn't do all the things that I proposed last Sunday: I started a new book (No habrá final, by Roberto Echeto) and I cleaned my desk, but I wasn't able to wash my car and I didn't take the pictures to try the Harris Shutter Effect (I only used my camera yesterday to take pictures for my previous posts). So this week I'm planning to do these things:

1.- Wash my car (it's a must).
2.- Finish reading this new book.
3.- Write a letter and prepare a little envelope with nice things.
4.- Try to find some address labels (it isn't easy here in Venezuela).

4 things #1

I've seen this on many blogs, so I decided to give it a try. This week, I want to do these 4 things:

1.- Start reading a new book.

2.- Wash my car.

3.- Throw away a lot of old and useless stuff from my desk.

4.- Take some pictures to try the Harris Shutter Effect.

I think I'll be able to do it :) Next Sunday I'll post the results of this.
