Goals
I’ve always been a goal freak. Each semester I tape my goals (written in bright colored markers!) to my bathroom mirror so I can read them every day.
I’m finished with school now so I’ll have to change the “Spring 200-” title for “Lifetime Goals”.
Here we go (in no particular order)
1) Live in Key West, FL, for 6 months
2) Live in Queenstown, NZ, for at least 1/2 a ski season
3) Learn how to throw a pizza (Peter and I tried 12/11/08 but I don’t think it really counts since we ended up dropping the dough and using a store bought crust for our actual pizza)
4) Learn enough Spanish to get by on my own in S.A.
5) Go to Canada
6) Be commissioned to do something… Anything…
7) Wood carve something cool
8) Raft down 2 hard-core rivers
9) Climb a tree that I can say, “You see that tree? I climbed it” and people will be impressed.

10) Learn how to mix 5 creatively-named cocktails properly
11) Go to Cali
12) Live in New Orleans, LA, for an indefinite amount of time
