Thanksbfor the reply. I like the idea about getting ideas from other media! Thanks

I remember my dad doing it and it brings back good memories for me: The smell, the sounds.

What’s your preferred medium? Do you have a way to make art everyday? I feel stuck at times and learning about how and what other art interested people Do gives me ideas.

• Setting and enforcing boundaries around holidays.
• Sticking to a consistent sleeping schedule.
• Exercising most days than not.
• Listen to me first and keep tuning out all outside noise.
• Managing things step by step in the best way circumnstances allow.

Well, I kept trying to squat like most people do trying so hard not to lean forward and kept falling over on my ass lol. That and also I couldn’t feel the work in my glutes, only quads. Are you familiar with the way little children squat? I still can’t do it but getting better every day by practicing.

Turns out I have super tight hips and that prevented me of hinging correctly, plus the aformentioned femur/torso ratio.

I hired a personal trainer in january of this year to help me out with stuff and she helped me correct my form. Now I use a pair of those foam wedge things under my heels to prop me up in a better position and I can squat way better. It was a game changer.

Learning the proper way to squat for my long femurs/short torso body. It makes such a difference in how and where I feel the muscle work. Knees over toes be damned!

I always get my SO three things every year: one thing he really wants (This year is a pair of submarine shears), something he needs (New hiking boots) and something that he wouldn’t get for himself (A week in cabin/shack at secluded beach in the caribbean to fish, scuba dive and relax).

You must have had a class on how to do research, how to cite a paper, how to look for books in a library, etc. No?

I am not trying to come of as condescendent at all, it truly baffles me because I had such classes starting in middle school all the way up to graduate school and they were mandatory. Isn’t that the standard in higher education?

Plus the visuals and ambience creation were superb IMO. Mads Mikkelsen is such a vesratile actor. I especially liked his Hannibal.

OP: I am babbling all over your post because I am so excited to find interesting shows, movies and people in it. Sorry for the rambling.

Oh my absolute favorite detective. I remember waiting a freaking year when they announced “Midnight sun” to come out as the series finale. Great british TV!

The sinner season 1 was great! Jessica Biel surprised me with her character but it’s the little sister that does it for me. Have you watched “Sharp objects” with Amy Adams? I love how gritty and sordid it is. Kinda slow at first butvthen it picks up quickly for a riveting ending.

I guess you are talking about the tv series? Because that was, indeed, kind of not so good. I watched a couple of episodes.

The movies, at least for me, were good in a general sense but La habitación del niño was great in my opinion.

That Unabomber series was such a touching piece for me. I don’t want to spoil anyone’s fun, but it made feel vey sentimental how his vulnerable side was presented.

Spot on! Very dark and dramatic, I remember reading the Millenium series when it first came out and then went to the theater to watch The girl with the dragon tattoo, the original european version with Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander. What a great actress!

IKR?! I read the book some time ago and I was like, man this part here would have made such a great episode.

Have you watched “Historias para no dormir”? It was series of Spanish horror movies, I think four or five. My favorite from that series was “La habitación del niño” such a good story! I am a horror buff and it is always refreshing to watch something that surprises me in a good way.

City of god was a great movie

You are in for a treat!

I am glad I could share something interesting with you.

Oh I will look it up for sure! Thanks for the suggestion.

Matthew Mcconaughey and Woody Harrelson were great in it! The last season with Jodie Foster was good too IMO, but the rest was just blah.
