beat my dad in a game of chess (read all 2 entries…)
chess

one day…



re-art aspects of my grade 1 drawings (read all 2 entries…)
sketching

The only reason why my doodles haven’t progressed much since elementary school is because that’s all I’ve done – sparse doodles here and there. I should actually – GASP! – use entire sheets of paper and try my hand at art! Not for any real purpose – just for fun.



upload my backlog of photos to facebook (read all 2 entries…)
March2008/Summer2006

Up to March 2008 with my photos, and summer 2006 with my videos.

I aim to upload one batch every week.



apply cream onto my eczema twice a day for 30 days (read all 5 entries…)
skincare

With daily effort and care.



submit poems to a literary journal (read all 3 entries…)
poems to a literary journal

I want a couple others that I really believe in, first.



write a song (read all 3 entries…)
Untitled

never have. Well, alright, not since perhaps grade nine. T’would be cool.



pay off my student loan (read all 3 entries…)
student loans

Well, with my addition of a second bachelor’s degree, I’ve got three more years left before I leave this place, so this is more of a long-term goal.

It’d be awesome to actually be reducing the amount that I owe before the interest kicks in, though.



volunteer with children
volunteerin'

For the past few years, I’ve been off-and-on volunteering with Students For Literacy, but that just doesn’t work if I’m rehearsing every Saturday morning/afternoon for theatre shows (as I hopefully will be doing), so I need to find other options…



read The Merchant Of Venice (read all 2 entries…)
The Merchant Of Venice

so I can help out a friend who is adapting it for her high school drama club.



clear out my downloads folder (read all 4 entries…)
ebooks

read’em or delete’em. Or both.



be a father (read all 3 entries…)
Untitled

If not to my own kid, then to someone else’s. In time.



submit a short story to a publication
Untitled

Dude, it’s postage and a cover letter. You can do this.

Oh, right, and editing. And it’s scary. Scary scary scary.

I can still do this. No harm in rejection. But I’m not doing it anytime soon, it seems (for no reason whatsoever).



sell a short story
Untitled

but this requires submitting short stories, which I have yet to do. I should make a goal for that as well.



travel to a place where most people don't speak English
Untitled

I’ve been to the US, England, and other places in Canada. Several times. Oh, and Paris for a day.

I want to see somewhere where people live differently.



create a board game
Untitled

I have an idea. It features automatons. I have possibly gameplay mechanics. I just need to put it all together and test it.

I haven’t done so for going on two years now.



sort through my external harddrive (read all 7 entries…)
Untitled

A lotta stuff I don’t need to see again (or haven’t seen yet!)



get up at the same time every day for 30 days (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled

As a 30-day trial. Go to bed when I’m tired, wake up at the same time each day. Apparently it’s the healthiest way to go (and actually leads to needing less sleep, total over the course of the week).

Not exactly practical during the school year (Theatre parties ahoy), but I can do this, this summer.



Act in a film. (read all 3 entries…)
Untitled

I’ve done a short film contest and plays, but I’d love to have some role, any role, in a feature length, to experience that world.



create a professional resume website and blog (read all 5 entries…)
Untitled

Perhaps daily, perhaps not, but something to keep me creating something, anything creative, every single day. Ray Bradbury made sure he wrote 1500 words every day, and I wonder if I could at least edit a photo or an old poem or put together an essay each and every day.



organize my bookmarks
Untitled

My goodness there are STILL far too many of them. And I deleted some 600-odd ones LAST summer.

(mind, most of those had been around since I was 12.)
