Geek Week Mixoleed (7) - Good bye October

October is over and so is the school break. Sad face on the last day of it. Tomorrow I'll be returning to school, but not without

having scored 1277 pages
466 at one sitting
slept two nights by a lamp on because of Mara Dyer
freaked out over the first part of the season 8 finale of Doctor Who
participed in my first Twitter Party
danced around my room
and played through Dreamfall Chapters
wrote tons of Doctor Who fan-fiction
delved into animes & mangas
discovered new music

Maybe it's not what most people consider an eventful week. Maybe it's not socializing by a couple of shots of tequila or vodka. But maybe I enjoy this kind of racket more.

This week on the blog:

Who View (5) : S8 E10 - In the Forest of the Night + Missy Dominance

Geek Week Mixoleed (5) - Mission Accomplished + New Books

My week fully comprised studying intermittent with reading. And coffee of course. Gallons of coffee. Like, seriously. Who's got time for sleeping or such marginalities besides a four pages long History test and a Geography one right after the former? Duh?

Joking aside, I'm very proud of my reading progress this week. I finished FOUR books that weren't even that short. This has never happened before. I accomplished something else, too. I finally picked up my poor, abandoned violin and after one and a half year hiatus I played again. I'd like to learn to mix it with dub-step, like Lindsey Stirling. Right now, I'm practicing Radioactive by Imagine Dragons.

I love this rendition:

Book Haul (2) - The Great Freebie Flood

What happens if a book-junkie gets bored in the evening without having anything to do? She starts reading of course, or checks out her favorite blogs or her own blog for that matter or maybe checks in on Goodreads...or like me ends up in Kindle Store.

Since I wasn't at home yesterday I couldn't get to the computer to do any of the listed acts, except the last one of course, any other ways I wouldn't be writing this Book Haul, as I did find wi-fi and decided to have a quick look what's on Amazon. Well, it was so quick, I managed to stop myself about 3/4 hour, 250 books and 14 purchased ones later. Here what I got:
