1) Get 4.0 (got a 3.85 this semester, which really frustrated me. So close.) 2) Lose about 10 pounds, or gain muscle. Either one works. 3) Present at a couple conferences 4) Write two more articles 5) Have at least one article ready for submission to a good journal 6) Stop procrastinating with the research for those articles 7) Be able to read Spinoza in Latin with the help of a dictionary 8) Continue to not have a girlfriend; they're distracting.

And my annual one: Be better in every way than the year before. It's what I go for. It's not a definite goal, but it's a pretty respectable one.

Pretty good I think. 5.[Attempted] contact with friends. Well. I did ok. 6.[Fail]I did not go camping 7.[Success]Grades were good . First semester of college=good.

1. Quit smoking. 2. Take a break from drinking for 30 days. 3. Go back to the gourmet veggie, healthy cooking. I do love to cook and would like to start eating healthier. As in, no mac & cheese in a box, tortellini in a package, and other lazy, lame dinner options. 4. Save for an electric piano. 5. Save for a trip to see my Southern families. 6. Find musical theater in Seattle and become a part of it.
Not too bad for 2009. MUST DO IT!
