Second try
9 months ago
I’ve tried doing this before but I just got bored with some of the Old Testament Books. I’ve read all of the New Testament. Hopefully this time I’ll have more patience with the Old Testament.

How I did it
It made me
Bookish 
How I did it: My theme for 2008 was self improvement (mind, body, & spirit). One way I thought of improving my mind was by reading at least one book a month for a whole year. I started in January but things always came up and I was unable to read. So I started again in July 2008 . This time I did my best to stick to the goal.

I thought it would be confusing since there's the clutch to worry about when starting the car and when shifting gears. I was really afraid of stalling or having the car die on me while driving.

I went to my orthopedist yesterday about my knee. Turns out I have a possible torn meniscus from the last full marathon I raced. Since that takes a really long time to heal I can’t run for a while. I guess this goal will have to wait until 2010. Booh :(
