To me this means ending up 2009 with an album for each month. That means doing something each month – an outing, excursion, party, event or holiday – worth photographing.

This goal is too vague to be measurable. Specifically (for now), I want to adapt and master a system for remembering and recalling numbers and dates.
Well it took me longer than I thought to get those last four and the database did change a number of times before I actually completed it. I also got side tracked and completed the “100 All-Time Highest Grossing Films”, and all the movies of: The Coen Brothers, Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, Peter Jackson and Hayao Miyazaki along with the entire Bond collection :)
I’ve also completed 99% of the Films 101 list.
Seems like I’ve watched a lot of movies these past two winters but I’m sure I’ll find another list of movies for next winter :) Perhaps I should find a good list of books.
