5 Fandom Friday: New Years Fandom Resolutions

{SURPRISE...check out the very bottom of the post for February and March prompts!}

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!  Anyone else feel like 2015 is going to be a GREAT year!?  I just can't stop thinking about all the possibility and fun that could happen.  The beginning of a new year is always full of such promise and excitement! Here are some extra nerdy things I hope to check off my bucket list in 2015!

1.  Attend a new con.  I have signed up for Fantasy Con in Utah, looking to attend Denver Comic Con and hopefully Gallifrey One.  Fingers crossed for these this year!
2.  Read MORE.  I've been REALLY slacking off on my reading, especially new books.  I am trying to re-read the Harry Potter series, but usually get sucked into Netflix at the end of the day.  I am definitely going to make reading more of a priority this year.  I would love to read some Jane Austin and Shakespeare before our October UK trip.

3.  See a Walk of Fame ceremony.  My friend Noel just did this and wrote about it in a guest post for the blog.  It sounded like a blast and not too hard of a thing to do.  Hopefully someone I love gets one this year.

4.  See the Harry Potter Studio Tour in London.  This was one of the BIG things I missed out on while in the UK the first time.  THIS year is my year and I cannot wait!

5.  Bigger and BETTER Nerd Blogger party at SDCC 2015!  Last year's meet up was great and girls only.  This year I hope we can get some of our awesome nerd guy blogger so join us as well.  Bigger space, more nerds and a whole bunch of fun!  Any suggestions/sponsorship ideas/helping hands would be great!  Hope to see you ALL there!!

What are you looking forward to nerding out over this year?!  Share your 5 Fandom Friday links in the comments below and don't forget to TWEET me for a RT.  I love reading everyone's each week, it is such a fun way to start off the weekend!

Jackie @ Books & Tea said...

Shakespeare! Shakespeare! Shakespeare! I'm hoping to read some more of his histories. Loved Richard III, so I think I might take a stab at King John. Or maybe Henry IV because that's one of the plays being performed at the Michigan Shakespeare Festival this year :)
