summer goals

my friend has been encouraging me to set some summer goals and blog about them. considering i'm one of those people that never make new years resolutions, i'm going to try to set some short-term goals for this summer. (my excuse has always been "if there's something you want to change, why wait until the end of the year to do it?" but i'm silently starting to feel that it's just a cop-out way to never make any concrete changes in my life- blahhh.)


the challenge is to create 5 personal goals and add 5 goals from kathy's list.
so, here are my summer goals:

• read 3 books: 1 non-fiction, 1 fiction, 1 christian (stolen from clara)
• go to at least 3 group exercise classes-  for whatever reason, i'm too shy to walk into a class =/ 
• organize my insane walk-in closet (meaning throw away/donate a lot of useless crap)- anyone need notepads from hallmark??
• plan a trip to new york and europe
• decorate my bare walls- now that i've decided to stay in my awesome apt, it's time to make it look more "lived in"

from kathy's list:

• learn to do something new
• no jeans for a week
• take a road trip (this is kinda hard.. since i don't have a car. but i'm hoping to take a road trip this summer!)
• host a summer dinner party
• take a picture every hour of a fun or normal day

i'll do my best to blog my way through this list. =)
