revisiting goals...

day 8- short term goals for this month and why.

back in january, i made this picture, and listed my new years resolutions.

my short term goals for this month are to work on these resolutions.

so..let's see.

what have i been working on?

1. write more often: nope. i mean, sure i write little things, and i have been trying to write more in blog posts, but in my journal, no, i haven't been writing as much as i could be.

2. see more of the world. well, yes. i have been going to some new places, but no major trips. however, there are lots of plans and ideas in my head :)

3. fall in love with something new. i would have to say...yes, this has been working out. i'm really falling in love with home renovation, watching shows on hulu, and scouring design blogs. it is definitely something i want to do as a homeowner one day. i am also loving photography.

4. decide what to study and where to study. hmmm, half way there. i will study at portland state university, but i don't know what to study! let's take it to a poll, shall we? ok, english, anthropology, or art history. i will be a teacher with any of these. so...thoughts?

5. paint. nope, haven't been painting.

6. move out of mom and dad's after germany. well, i'm still here, in germany. check back next year.

7. read more. yep. LOVE reading. i read everyday. and i have a huge wishlist of things to read in the near future.

8. learn to knit. nope, haven't done that.

9. simplify my life. ummmm, kind of? i have been cleaning and going through my stuff a lot lately. so i think that's good.

10. talk to friends more often. yes, of course. i takl to my friends all the time.

11. shoot more photos. yes, yes, and yes. got the whole photo blog challenge going on.

12. grow and appreciate. who i have become, and where i am going. i think that one is still under way.

i think that another short term goal i have is to travel some more here in europe.

i'm thinking spain, and other cities in deutschland.

like cologne, and hamburg.

i'll keep you posted!

++++++++++++++++

p.s. this post was written really quickly and i didn't check it very well, so if there are typos,

 i apologize.

and i will leave you with this:

i think it is pretty neat.

do you think it's appropriate to hang up in my future classroom?

i mean they will be in high school.

but, you're right...probably a no go.

still like it.

makes me want to work hard to become a teacher.
