Saph

confused with what's happened to 43places!



I'm doing 22 things
  

How I did it
How to identify 100 things that make me happy.
It took me
9 days
It made me
Happy

How I did it: I think I mentioned when I started that I didn't think I'd be able to find 100 things, but then I realised at the end that there was more than 100. Sitting down and reminiscing about things that warm your heart or quirk the corners of your mouth... it just starts flowing after that. Read how I did it…

Well I finally got another set of French CDs and am learning them in the car when I drive.

I remember bits and pieces but I think it’s going to take some time.

I also have to find a poor victim to practice on!

live passionately
I do live passionately... 13 months ago

I’m marking this as done, because I believe I do live passionately. Being passionate about life probably varies from person to person, but when I think about my life… I LOVE my life, I love being alive, knowing that most of the time nothing is too much trouble, accepting that we can’t always do what we want & sometimes other things take priority in life but it doesn’t stop us from being thrilled to be living & breathing & to appreciate as many aspects of life as we can.
I look forward to tomorrow, from the colour of the blue sky to crisp cold morning air on my face. There’s just so much I want to see, do & achieve.

Sometimes we might feel we don’t have that sort of passion in our lives, a zest or excitement or something that can take you away… You need to find it – go bungy jumping or hiking somewhere beautiful, ride a motorcycle or taking drawing classes – the passion is there – unleash it!

learn to skateboard
It's been ages since I updated, now I'm learning to skateboard... 13 months ago

I’m finally going snowboarding again this year, but I wanted to get some practice in before I went, instead of feeling like I was relearning each time I went.

I got a skateboard and I’m learning slowly. Concrete is so much more unforgiving than snow. I’ve already bruised my knees and grazed my elbows, and my girlfriend fractured her arm on my skateboard. I can skate around a little and turn. (I also dinted a cupboard in the garage trying to ollie – I think I was a bit too ambitious.)

(I really like the 43 Things changes :) )
