learn italian (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled

I have learned numbers 1 through 20 in Italian! All thanks to the little apps that are accessible via my IPOD :)



Improve my confidence
Untitled

I think I’ve been doing a lot with this goal lately. My anxiety for the past six months or so has been, well, scary (see goal re: getting over this existential/metaphysical anxiety); but I heard that aluminum, which is in most anti-perspirant deodorants, can cause mood swings/changes, so I stopped using it and I have been feeling a lot calmer. Less like some freak, which is good for the whole loneliness/confidence/social anxiety issue. :-) We’ll see how this pans out.



get curtain rods and put up Mom's curtains (living room)
Untitled

This ridiculously simple goal has been taking me too long! I wish I could upload a picture on here-I am a veritable luddite-but I finally hung up the curtain rod base, its one of those fancy double rod deals, and I put up the sheers. My arms are aching. Drilling through plaster is rough work.
