31 Goals until April 15, 2010



Got this idea from my dear friend, Naidz, who is also struggling with her 30+ goals from last year. Let's see how far I'll go with mine :) These, I think, are realistic goals, desires, wishes, and all the things that I want to accomplish before I turn 32. 

1. Have a baby girl.
2. Buy our first house.
3. Find part time work.
4. Study photography. Or learn by myself, if I can't afford the 2-year diploma course.
5. Learn to sew and make girl's dresses.
6. Get NZ license (w/o any retest).
7. Lose weight - it might take a miracle (or liposuction) to go back to size 8, so for now I'll pin it down to losing 10 lbs.
8. If #7 fails, donate all size 8 clothes to the salvation army.
9. Do all the other Wellington Walks (also to support #7).
10. Encourage Marius all the time.
11. Go bungee jumping.
12. Read the newspaper (or even online) every day. Seriously.
13. Understand Kiwi slang.
14. When I have spare money, buy a Louie Vuitton bag or an IMac (I think the gadget lust is stronger than my fashion lust. But first, how do I get that extra $$$?)
15. Edit long-overdue home videos.
16. Write more blogs. 
17. Keep in touch with family and friends.
18. Wear gloves every time I wash the dishes.
19. Be more creative in making beaded jewelry. Join summer festivals.
20. Go back to swimming. Improve endurance.
21. Finish reading Stanley Karnow's "In Our Image: America's Empire in the Philippines" - it's been in the bookshelf for 3 or so years. 
22. Learn more dishes to cook. Ugh! 
23. Water my apple and lemon trees consistently :) 
24. Sleep early and wake up early.
25. Do something good, all the time
26. Not get a credit card in NZ. Manageable. But keep the supplementary card for "emergency use" from my Super Nanay.
27. Drive less, walk more. 
28. Teach Marius to speak Filipino.
29. Borrow more books from the library. Buying books are on-hold, unless absolutely necessary.
30. Do more word puzzles to improve my ailing memory.
31. Do everything from 1-30 :) Ha!
