Jasper Jones, Chapter 1.
Years and years ago (read: sophomore year of college) when I was feeling really literature-y, I used this here LJ to document favorite quotes from things I was reading. I'm thinking of starting that again here. Because 1) I'm not writing my goals in here anymore, so it's pretty lonely; 2) Documenting these quotes is way too boring to force any of ( Read more... ) -
May Goals: Review.
+ Run SEVEN times. Also: somehow start to measure how far my runs are so I can keep track of my progress/see how pathetic my endurance actually is.Dammit, dammit, I hate that this is the first goal! Because I only ran SIX times! And I feel really bad about myself for not pushing myself to actually make it SEVEN. Which is awful, because running six ( Read more... ) -

April Goals: Review.
I'm a few days behind in my goals posts this month for a few reasons: Kathy's friend Reiko has been in town for a week and so I've been busy doing all sorts of fun things with fun people the last few days, and also, our internet at home has been sucking serious ass. It is sad when you realize how much you rely on the internet. When we came home ( Read more... ) -

March Goals: Review.
+ Go to the coast, at least once.
Yes! We went to Cape Lookout and had beer at Newport. We were only there for a day and it felt so incredibly amazing to be not-in-Portland.
+ Make at least 3 new meals.
Yes. It was another Budget Bytes month, as it should be. I'm starting to feel less and less guilty about my cookbooks collecting dust. Recipes ( Read more... ) -
Goals: March 2011.
So, yeah, it's March 11th, and I'm just getting around to writing my March goals. This was not through a lack of wanting to make goals, but a lack of time. Pretty much, March 1st-10th did not exist in terms of A Personal Life for Jill. I am still kind of struggling to get my mind back to working order, but my Real March where I actually Do Stuff ( Read more... ) -
February Goals: Review.
I just want to say that I did really like the goals I made for myself this month, and I thought about them a lot. This does not actually mean I accomplished them, but it still feels like something. As some of you know, I have also been struggling with some weird depression-y feelings since returning to the West Coast after Christmas, which has made ( Read more... ) -
Goals: February 2011.
+ Really start work on my student teaching Work Sample I. This is without a doubt the most important thing I have to do this month. I'd love to get it totally finished by the end of the month, but that may be overly optimistic ( Read more... ) -
January Goals: Review.
+ Spanish five times a week: a Chapter 3 en Harry; a unit treinta en Spanish Now.I definitely got better at picking up Spanish again after almost completely avoiding it during December; however, I still didn't do it enough or as consistently as I would like. I did finish Chapter 2 in Harry, but only got to Unit 22 in my workbook. I'm going to try ( Read more... )
