My Mission 101 - February 2010 update
Things are interesting so far. I'm very reluctant to say I've actually failed anything already, though I'll concede some things are going to need more work.
Link to original list here.
Things I may have completed
45. Find a better job - I think I have done so but I'm not going to cross it off completely until I've actually signed the contract.
Things I have partly completed
20. Clean my desk and use it properly - cleaned it 4/1/2010
87. Carry a handcloth to dry my hands - I have the handcloths, I'm carrying them, let's see how this pans out
Things I've started work on
1. Pass JLPT level 4 - Ryota is starting to give me Japanese lessons again
18. Decorate the living room - I have a calendar and a few postcards up now.
23. Finish at least one scrapbook - I'm working on two scrapbooks at the moment, both of them gifts for my students that feature photos and work samples. They will have to be finished by graduation in mid-March
33. Go to the movies at least five times - 1/5, The Lovely Bones, 7/2/2010
34. Visit at least three new places in Chiba - 1/3, Mobara, 6/2/2010
60. Lose 10 kilograms - I've lost at least 2 so far, maybe more after my bout of gastro.
70. Reply to e-mail/messages within a week - I'm getting there, I'm getting there
71. Keep my blog for my family updated - started work on that, I still have a bit of a backlog
74. Get my head around this whole wedding thing - I've got a few ideas, at least.
77. Take sticker photos with Ryota once every six months - 1/5. He wasn't too happy about it but they are in existence =)
84. Spend one evening per fortnight with NO COMPUTER - 2/71. It's not easy but it's very rewarding.
86. Send ten postcards through Postcrossing - 2/10 thus far
90. Keep a dream journal - I've started one but I'm being hindered by the fact I can't remember my dreams
91. Document each item I win at game centres - in progress and going well so far. In good news, I don't actually spend as much time at game centres as I thought I did.
96. Keep my personal organizers up-to-date - going ok so far!
Things with a plan in place anyway
44. Pay off at least one third of my HECS debt - I have a plan for this
49. Create a budget - I'm monitoring my spending so I can figure out what's going where
81. Sell something on ebay - I've started buying things to ease myself into it.
Things currently being delayed
57. Go swimming once a fortnight - I really don't have time to do this after work at the moment but even if I did, I've got this rash from the dry winter that comes and goes. Immersing myself in chlorine just doesn't seem the wisest idea. I'll try again in March or April.
Things that will require a restart/second attempt
14. Fold up the futons at least twice a week - there's so many blankets in winter. I must persevere, though.
21. Put away all my clothes at least once a day - I'm so bloody bad at this =S
24. Participate in Project 365 - I've forgotten six times now, three while I was sick, two due to just forgetfulness and one because I was distracted by trying to get the better job. I'm not giving up on this year but let's face it, I'm not going to have 365 days of photos for 2010. I'll re-attempt the whole thing next year too.
58. Go for a walk twice a week - but it's cooooooold!
63. Do cardio at least five times a week unless somehow incapacitated - I'm glad I didn't define incapacitated
85. Build a snowman - all the snow melted away before I could do it last week =(
93. Try to write a paper journal entry each day - emphasis on try. I like to do it in private and if Ryota's home when I am, this goes out the window. I've also been sick and I don't feel like writing when vomitting. We will try again.
