Things I want to get done in 2010
Some highlights from 2009
-- Got a nice raise.
-- Moved back to Portland and into my new apartment (love it).
-- Went to Ecuador again.
-- Started volunteering with a very cool organization (http://www.writearoundportland.com).
-- Got to know my camera a lot better and took a class.
-- Got therapy.
-- Ran a half-marathon and a marathon.
"Resolving not to make resolutions" was my usual gig this time of year.
But let's face it: That's a cop-out.
So let's not resolve to make resolutions, but dare to set a few goals.
::: 2010 :::
1. Start selling photos as stock and continue to search, learn, and improve in photography.
2. Continue to write for myself consistently (on paper or here in LJ).
3. Feel out what's going on when I get nervous, and try to manage that.
4. Ski enough to make my pass worth it. I've only gone three times so far, so I've got at least nine to go.
5. Become a confident 5.9 lead climber by the time the sun comes back out so I can take friends outside this summer.
6. Take at least one graphic design, InDesign, or photo class, and explore options there.
7. Visit at least one country I've never explored, and maybe go back to France.
8. Master the truffles. :)
9. Oh... and eat less sugar. Kind of hard when I'm mastering truffles. But I can do it.
... and not officially a goal, but would like to run another half-marathon with my entire Travel Division in Hawaii or some other exotic place before the end of 2010.
