Challenges in 2015

Gelukkig nieuwjaar!

Nieuwe ronde, nieuwe kansen, en dat betekent voor mij weer deelname aan de challenges van challengemee.nl! De vijfde keer alweer dat ik meedoe, en het blijft leuk.
Dit jaar beperk ik het aantal challenges iets. Voorgaande jaren deed ik altijd mee met albums, boeken, en concerten. Dit jaar laat ik vanwege de teleurstellende resultaten van de afgelopen twee jaren concerten vallen. Albums zet ik wederom op 300, boeken gaat net als afgelopen jaar op 60. Ik ben benieuwd of ik het dit jaar zal weten te halen... Vorig jaar was ik dichtbij, dus wie weet dit jaar beter... Films, series, en theater laat ik net als voorgaande jaren weer over aan anderen, aan hen die die challenges beter aankunnen ;-)

Hoe dan ook heb ik er zoals altijd weer zin in!
Zowel de albums als boeken challenge dwingen mij af en toe om verder te kijken dan mijn neus lang is, en op die manier heb ik de afgelopen paar jaar al heel wat boeken, albums, schrijvers, en muzikanten ontdekt, iets waar ik erg blij van word. Kortom: op naar weer een topjaar!
En jij, doe jij dit jaar mee met de challenges? Daag jij jezelf op een leuke manier op cultureel gebied uit? Even surfen naar www.challengemee.nl, en geef jezelf op! :-)

Challenges in 2014!

Een nieuw jaar, en dat betekent dat ik weer met de challenges van ChallengeMee meedoe. De afgelopen jaren heb ik met zo veel plezier aan de challenges meegedaan, dat ik zonder twijfel dit jaar voor de vierde keer meedoe.
Vorig jaar stond de teller op 31 december op 11 concerten, 274 albums, en 67 boeken.
Mijn challenges van dit jaar? 300 albums luisteren, 25 concerten bezoeken, en 52 boeken lezen, hoewel ik boeken misschien later dit jaar nog ga opschalen naar 60; het moet immers wel een uitdaging blijven :) Mijn voortgang kan je hieronder zien.
Zoals ieder jaar doe ik niet mee met films, en ook theater en musea laat ik aan mij voorbij gaan. Wel ga ik dit jaar bijhouden hoeveel seizoenen van series ik kijk; misschien dat ik ze later dit jaar alsnog registreer, misschien dat ik volgend jaar met de series challenge meedoe. Ik kijk wel.
En jij, krijg jij hiervan ook zin in een culturele uitdaging? Snuffel dan eens rond op de site! Doe je ook mee?
[5-1-2014: Ik had maar een klein duwtje nodig. Mijn boeken challenge is opgeschaald naar 60! Ik ben benieuwd...]
