I've had a list of goals for 2013 for a little while. Not as extensive as some I've seen, and a lot of these ideas are still in the nucleus of coming to fruition, but it's at least a rough list of what I 'want' to do. I haven't put them up mostly because I didn't think anyone would find them interesting...but part of getting something to come about is to write it down, right? And this blog has served for a point of reference more than once, so it'll be good to look back on the grand start of journeys and such.
Rough List of Goals for 2013
1. Finish school. To be specific, I want to do school 3 days a week, minimum.
2. Get a summer job at a camp or ranch. (Specifically, fill out applications for said job)
3. Start and successfully complete high school girls' study on 'Created to Be A Help Meet'.
4. Complete 'Couch to 5K' program and the 90-day Cross-fit challenge (work out 3 days a week to start, perhaps increase as stamina improves)
5. Become more camera-savvy and proficient by playing with said camera and looking up the manual in order to learn all the functions.
6. Play piano or guitar at least 2 times a week.
7. Ride the horse long-distance, by starting riding as soon as it warms up on the off-days for working out.
8. Create in any form (sewing, drawing, writing, photography, etc) every day.
9. Get a calendar and learn to schedule and budget time and money.
10. Go to the library once a week for books and research ones to order through the library exchange system.
Some bigger goals would be to earn enough money to get a little car (stick shift, baby!), get a better job once school is over, and learn some skills like woodworking and basic engine stuff (for the eventual stick shift car, of course).
All these are lovely and wonderful ideas, but I'm also hoping to not get all overwhelmed and irritated at myself, because I'm usually so tired after work that all I want to do is flop in front of the computer or sit with a book and zone out. I know it's a discipline issue...but still. >.<
Here's to a bright new year, and a list of things to do in said year! *raises water jar in toast*
I know so many people who like stick shift but I still dont understand it i like mindless driving ;) is it something i should try?
ReplyDeleteYes! Try it! Learning in a little sports car would probably be a lot of fun...I had to learn in a huge Dodge truck while pulling a trailer. It was nerve-wracking, but after a while it gets to be fun. I want a little Toyota or Honda 5-speed. :3
