Um, yeah. Today's been composed mainly of jewelry making (duh), Twilight Zone marathon, and Mythbusters marathon. Needless to say, I've become quite addicted to Mythbusters after seeing the Illegal Alien Catapault episode this past semester. It's good stuff. Makes me wish I were a whole lot smarter and understood half of the shit they were doing. That's more like a task for angineering students like Amanda. Memorable Mythbuster moments from today? Pyramid Power, Personal Jet Pack, Civil War soldier gets bullet through the gonads and bullet then travels enough distance with enough force to shoot and thus impregnate an innocent female bystander (this was proven impossible, but only because no sperm survived the burning bullet - distance and shot was proven theoretically possible), Jaws-off, and lots of Buster-busting. It's been an overall educational day. Hurray for physics and chemistry.

I didn't do anything last night, so no point in bringing it up. yeah, i was disappointed I didn't get invited anywhere - but whatev. Sleep is always an alternative.

Goals for 2006:

1. Read at least five books outside of school. Sounds easy, but you'd be amazed. When I'm not doing homework, sleeping, or beading - I've generally got no energy to read or I've got something else to do. Sadly, five books is a decent goal for me. With any luck, I'll be able to blow myself away and read a whole lot more. Got a bunch of Anne Rice books for Christmas.

2. Lose 15 lbs. I did it this last year, I think I've ot it in me to lose another round of poundage. Especially since I've become addicted to biking and dancing and just generally being active again. So i guess my goal for 2006 is to bring myself down to 120 lbs. This might not be possible, but I'd truthfully be happy with any weight loss, as right now I weigh less than I did in 10th grade, and I'm more proportional.

3. Stop swearing.... in front of my parents. :D Yeah right, like I'm going to try and give it up all together. I've started a nasty habit this year of not watching my language in front of my parents. They don't seem to care, but it makes me feel kind of bad. So... yeah.

4. I would like to make $3,000 selling jewelry this year. It's an interesting goal, for sure. I think I can do it. I made close to $2,000 last year and that was just getting started. With Thresher's and Waxhaw and *gasp* maybe eventually Harborfest or Farmer's market and selling in the bookstore and Jess trying to get me sponsorship from Blue masque to have a show this next semester.... I think I can do it. What do y'all think? A lofty goal I guess, but far from impossible.

Okay. Those are the goals. Later, y'all.

Your task, I guess, is to post a memory from this past year. Doesn't have to include me, just any old memory will do. It would be nice to catch up with some of you again, if only in this small way.
