April has felt like a short month, but I also feel that I have achieved a lot in that time.
Also, this month review is going to look a little bit different. I’ve added emojis to eat heading and a new section at the end. Both of which are ideas I’ve borrowed from Joel’s April Summary. So this is going to be fun.

Not the best month for reading, but I’m getting back into the flow of things.

🎮 Gaming
I did a ton of flying in FlightGear as always, and spent many hours working on the Hawk T1 add-on which has been a blast to fly and make.
👂 Listening
🎵 Music
I listened to a bit of music over the month on YouTube.
🎙️ Podcasts
I listened to bits of a couple of The WAN Show episodes, but sadly, I only fully listened to one, I need to listen to the rest of them.
I do really want to get back into some other podcasts, such as Wolf 359 which I need to finish.
👀 Watching
▶️ YouTube
I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos of various creators, genres, etc.
🎥 Movies & TV Shows
I was watching Young Sheldon on Netflix and when I finished the series, I spent some time watching some movies. I started off with Paul - a movie about an alien. I then watched Beverley Hills Cop: Axel F - a new (2024) entry to the Beverley Hills Cop franchise. After that, I watched Top Gun - the 1986 classic, which I until now, have never seen before. After Top Gun, I watched The Adam Project - a movie about time travel.
It’s been fun just watching movies in my spare time.
✅ Goals
I’m going to try something I’ve seen in Joel’s month summaries - Goals, let’s see how this goes.
