The New Year.
I'm hoping this year will be better than the last. Last year was probably the worst year of my life. I'm glad it's over. This year I want to accomplish more. Here are the top 10 things I want to accomplish/do this year:
1. Chant at least 6 rounds of the Hare Krishna Mantra per day. I really don't chant nearly as much as I should.
2. Finally find a way to go and visit the Krishna Temple in Toronto (which is the closest one to me) and possibly stay there for a few days or even a week.
3. Start saving for my trip to India.
4. Go back to school.
5. Not dye my hair or get it cut at all.
6. Read as many books as I can.
7. Buy an electric guitar.
8. Learn how to play my Ukulele.
9. Regulate my sleep cycle and go to bed at a somewhat decent hour.
10. Get over my depression.
Those are all the things I want to do this year. Hopefully I will be able to accomplish at least half of them, although I'm sure, if I try hard enough I can accomplish them all.
I know there are probably other things that I should try to do too, but those are the ones that involve me. I'd also like to start donating to a charity or something. I was thinking of becoming one of those foster parent people... you know... for the price of a cup of coffee per day or whatever you can save the life of a poor kid in africa. I think that would be so nice to do.
Anyway, my overly optimistic - ness is starting to scare me. So I guess I'll just end this here.
Hare Krishna!
