How I did it
How to read only books written in French for the entire summer
It took me
3 months
It made me
happily accomplished

How I did it: I just read.  Page by page.  I had books written in French (mostly, they were translations from English into French).  Just get in the groove and keep reading! Read how I did it…

How to get a job for the summer
It took me
4 weeks
It made me
thrilled

How I did it: I filled out many applications.  I called every place (to which I applied) and asked to speak to the manager--or better yet, go in person.  I called back to see if my applications had been read yet. Read how I did it…

How to learn to shoot a gun
It took me
1 day
It made me

How I did it: I visited my family in Ohio and we went onto my Uncle's hill and shot targets.  I shot a 45, a 22, a hunting rifle, a shot gun, and a mouser which would've knocked me on my backside if my brother hadn't been standing behind me!  It was fun. Read how I did it…

Well, summer's over. 1 month ago

I’m not calling this one a ‘fail” or a “win” because I didn’t read any in August because I ran out of books and (if I’d ordered more) by the time I got new books they wouldn’t have gotten to me until I was already in France. And the shipping cost was absurd. I wasn’t going to pay 50 bucks for two paperback books!!! But, since the summer is over, I’m adding this to the ‘Completed” goals—the only thing that stopped me from actually finishing out the summer with French books was the fact that I didn’t have any more!

Holy Crap I'm In France 1 month ago

My title says it all! I’ve been in Avignon since the 5th of September (in France since the 4th, out of the US since the 3rd). I love it. It’s beautiful and wonderful and spectacular!

I’ve run out of French books. So I’m reading Brisingr while I wait for more books to come. I don’t know what to order.
