ski a black diamond (again)
It's been 16 years... 7 months ago

The last time I did this, I was about 10 years old. I think I may have too much adult fear now to ever achieve this goal…



Improve my French
Second priority? 7 months ago

I’m always torn between devoting time to French vs. German (and in my wishy-washiness, end up being crap at both). German’s more grammatically hardcore, which I love, but less useful (since most Germans speak English); French is easier and prettier, but I have a much harder time with listening comprehension, and doubt that I’ll ever spend the necessary time there to ever perfect it… so is it worth it?



run a 5K in under 21 minutes again
Last time was... 1997! 7 months ago

The last time I did this, I was 15 years old! And in crazy kick-ass shape. Ha ha ha… maybe I should shoot for under 23 minutes instead.
