Busy Little Bee

Back in December I know this post outlining events that were coming up and things I wanted to do. I thought it might be good to revisit this list and see what I have accomplished and what events I need to add to the list....

Books I want(ed) to read: (instead I've been reading Businessweek and finance books...)

• Shantaram - started it!
• The Devil In the White City
• Water for Elephants (before the movie comes out!) - read it, can't wait for the movie staring my FAVORITE, Reese Witherspoon
• The Help - bought it, didn't read it, then gave it to Becca (must purchase the digital copy for my Nook)

Movies I want(ed) to see:

• Love and Other Drugs (Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway) - saw it, loved it
• How Do You Know (Reese Witherspoon and Owen Wilson) - saw it just to see Reese...it was ok
• No Strings Attached (Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman) - hilarious and a totally  new perspective
• The Tourist (Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie) - haven't seen it yet (heard it got bad reviews?!)

Places I want(ed) to go: 

• Kansas City with Whitney to see her home - not yet
• Stephen's cabin in Oregon - nope
• Chicago to see my family - negative
• Minneapolis to visit Mary - hopefully in August!
