I have visited two more states since my last post 9 months ago. I visited New Mexico and Arizona in January. I’m pretty sure this is my year to finally take a trip to another country too.

How I did it: Began watching films online and making it a routine of watching one every night. I quit waiting for others to watch movies with and realized it can be just as enjoyable alone. I started watching ALL of the movies I want, not just what others want. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I spent over 10 hours canvassing, knocking on hundreds of doors to encourage others to vote for Barack Obama. I also voted for Barack Obama. Thankfully, all the hard work from myself and other volunteers led Obama to win the election. As President he will do amazing things and I look forward to continuing to help. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Went on a trip to Utah where I did the whitewater rafting with a group of strangers. It was class II rapids which were fairly calm. I would definitely recommend others try out class II for the first time as well. Read how I did it…

I’m starting to do better at this, though I’d say I still put the pro in PROcrastinating. I’m trying to stick to a schedule so that I have to just get things done and can’t procrastinate. So far it seems to be working a little better.
I think I’ve had this goal for a little over a year now and I’m definitely reading a lot more. I’ve actually been reading multiple books at once—right now I’m reading three. I just finished the Twilight book and am hooked on that series now. I never realized how much I enjoyed reading until I set this goal.
