my TO DO list

WOO first blog. Alright so a summer of MANY to do's and indeed it will be.

Every summer I always create a list of things I want to do during the summer and never really get around to them. But this summer is serious. I'm serious. In my mind this is my last summer of just "doing what I want". Before next summer I'll most likley stay in LA, hopefully have an intern and have to seriously be thinking about my future! How scary and dreadful. So the pressure is on and I am more determined to accomplish all or most of my to do's. So here they are...

1. READ read READ!
during the year there is never time to read for pleasure so i want to make good use of the summer and read tons of books. my goal is a book a week. i want to read classics AND expand my vocabulary. if you have any suggestions i'm all ears. my first read is "1984" i excited to really get started.

2. Learn to COOK
this has been a summer to do for like EVERS but this summer it has to be done because...i'm moving into the apartments next year and i cannot be starving of malnutrition or even worse starvation! so....gotta get on this.

3. Practice driving (so I feel comfortable) and learn to // park
must DO must DO. next year as a 3rd year i want to bring a car down to get from here and there and it'll make getting/having an internship so much easier. BUT my dad says he doesn't want me to die so I need to practice. So far learning to park is coming along, but I am still master JUST flat land and have yet to park in a tight spot.

4. Study Chinese
grrr placement test that expired after 3 quarters. yea so basically i need to practice so i'm good enough to pass out of chinese 1 like i did the last time i took it.

5. Paint
my goal is really to do at least ONE that is all i ask ONE painting for our apartment, but I need oil paints...and still am looking around. SO PRICEY so as of now that is put on hold...

6. Work out
so i dont become a big piece of poop and lard :/

SO THOSE are all my PERSONAL goals of this summer. Every day I will blog and we'll see just how well I keep to them. Let's hope for my sake I keep to it.
