Finish watching the Alias series
Season 1 1 day ago

I watched it at the beginning of 2008 and I’m up to season 2. Jennifer Garner was so believable in this show that I just have to complete the series!

Bradley Cooper is in this too (who I love!) so it’s worth it to go all the way with another J.J. Abrams show; not to mention I’ll be catching up with Lost Season 5 as well.

Lots of things to do next year!



Run a half-marathon
2010 5 days ago

This is a little crazy but I’m committed to training for a half-marathon next year. Coupled with possible acceptances and/or rejections from schools, vacations, and jobs, I want this to be the common thread that will hold me together. The training and dedication it takes to do this really is all Mental. Once 2010 starts, I’m there!



show compassion
this one's hard 5 days ago

I find it hard to have compassion for those that keep making the same mistakes over and over again. I know we are human and perfectly imperfect but seriously? Again? and Again?

Definition: Deep awareness of the suffering of another coupled with the wish to relieve it.

Do I even have compassion for myself? Hmm..I’ll chew on that for a bit.
