Goals, yeah I've actually got some

So I've come up with some new goals for my life. Some might seem far-fetched, but they would be awesome to achieve!

1) Learn Spanish, Arabic, and Korean. In the spring semester, I plan on attending Hongik University in Seoul, South Korea, which will give me the perfect opportunity to expand on my Korean skills. But who knows where I'll learn Spanish and Arabic... One day.

2) I'm gonna take up Kayaking. It has always looked so fun, and it would be such a thrill.

3) Seriously, my life has become a huge party. I don't remember many of my nights for the past few months. I'm taking a breather, taking a break from partying, and spending the rest of the summer relaxing and doing healthy things for myself. I plan on waking up early around 5:30, going to some spinning classes, and eating healthy. Maybe I'll take up rock climbing, and yoga-- I've got put my mat to use.

4) Hate is such a terrible thing. So are grudges. I'm erasing all that. I can't hate anybody. Nobody has seriously done anything to terrible to me. Life is life, so why should I spend it caught up in drama and being negative?

5) Time to start saving my money, well at least a good 15% of my paychecks.

6) I need to love everybody, and everything.

7) I need to be nicer. I need to be like my friend Van. He has unconditional love for everybody and does the sweetest things. Van is awesome.

8) Visit my family more. I can't live without them :)

9) I'm going to eventually start my own magazine. An outdoor travel magazine to be exact... I'd like to travel to a place for a month or so, and completely get to know the culture and the fun things to do--like kayaking (yeah, I might have a bit of an obsession)... It'd also be cool to work for Outdoor Magazine. Way awesome.

--Note to self: stop talking in my sleep-- I think I say some pretty inappropriate things...

10) I've kinda given up on trying to go to Yale for my Masters in Art History--don't quite think it
s for me.... (yeah, pretty sure this wasn't a goal. I just had to get it out there).

and Elizabeth Gilbert has pretty much inspired most of these goals, so I'd like to thank her and her novels.


Amen.
