They Say Having Goals is a Good Thing... Never Really Worked for Me, Though

15 Things I Wanted to Do Before Turning 30
It would've been 30, but I think you guys get bored after 10 anyway! Who knows... maybe I'll do another 15 another day. Anyway, without further ado, here they are in no particular order:
  • Choose a career
  • Get married
  • Have a baby
  • Make a real best friend
  • Travel to Europe
  • See some of the "best stuff" in the U.S.
  • Own a house
  • Touch someone else's life
  • Learn another language
  • Make something I'm proud of
  • Join (or start) a group that defines me
  • Sing karaoke
  • Smoke some pot
  • Find my own way home
  • Establish some real goals for myself -- a.k.a., decide on something that I really want for myself... I may not actually do it (since it seems to be imperative that I at least attempt to make everyone around me happy & a selfish goal isn't necessarily the best way to keep the waters ripple-less, but I'd like to at least KNOW my own mind)

Seems like a decent list, no? Well, it's a list, at least... albeit full of generic "goals" that anyone could write. Anyway, I'm curious how many of them you think I've accomplished. How well do you know me? Were you surprised by anything that's on my list? No worries if you are... I surprise myself sometimes. More on all that later.,,

Check out Lis' blog for more pics of ATL. One thing I can cross off the list... attend an NFL game. Oh wait, I'm pretty sure I had already done that with the UNC MTH. Oh well... both were fun.

Finally, one last happy birthday, Rufus! You always "cheer up my day", too. :)
