Interruption to Italy

Ok friends, I will make my final Italy post in a day or two. But, something has been on my mind. I am turning the big 28 in 1 mos and 1 week. I was thinking this year it would be fun to set 28 goals to commemorate the occasion. I am drawing a blank at what I can do. I already have plans to run a half-marathon (I don't think I'll try for more, I am not built like a marathoner), so that can be on my list. I was also thinking of trying to improve my photography skills and take at least 1 picture a day. Then, I was thinking I would take a pre-med class or two. Maybe a goal could be to do 10 military style push-ups, or do 5 pull-ups, or both. I was thinking about getting into rock climbing, but the girl who was going to be my partner in crime for that got pregnant. Bah! Then, I was also thinking, maybe I could read a book a month (I'd go a book a week, but I'll start small then expand).

So my list so far:

1- half marathon

2- take a picture a day

3- pre-med class

4- 10 military style push-ups

5- 5 pull-ups

6- read a book a month

7- make a budget and live within it

8- get a financial advisor (I have a friend).

9-_______

28 - _______

As you can see, I've got some thinking to do. I'm looking for suggestions. Make them serious, make them silly, I don't care. What are some goals that I should try to accomplish for my 28th year?

When I get your suggestions, I'll think them all over and on my birthday (or shortly thereafter) I will post my official list! This is partly inspired by a book I have "Swim Naked, Defy Gravity, and 99 other things to do before your 30". Fun book! Some things are a little off-color for my taste, but I count those against the 99. So for me, it's more like 93 things to do before your 30. hehe

p.s. as for my New Year's resolutions:

1- I could be doing better at the scripture reading, but I am working on it.

2- I have moved to AZ, I take the "whiz quiz" tomorrow, and start my new job on Monday...check!

3- Buon Giorno! Mi chiamo, Becky! Tu come stai? Io sto bene. Io vivo in Gilbert, Arizona. Io lavoro in un ospedale. Io e medico. Io ho imparato l'italiano con Rosetta Stone. Io parlo sono un po', ma sto imparando. -- I am doing well at my goal for learning Italian, I think.
