Had an in-depth conversation last night with my roommates about the future.
Anyways, the gist of it is that I need to have goals and plans.
Start small, dream big. My end goal in life is to be happy, so clearly there is a lot of flexibility in that. But yes, I'll broadcast some of my little and large goals in life, so that both myself and others can keep me accountable and so I will remember and not lose sight of what I want.
This weekend's goals
*Have read and be ready for discussions this upcoming week -- hopefully I can catch up fully, but that would take a little more time
*Apply for at least 3 jobs
Small, achievable, short-term goals to be achieved by the time this semester ends in May:
*130 is the ideal goal but not entirely realistically achievable, so losing 5 pounds per month
EDIT (2.3.12) When (not if) I reach this goal, Janice has promised that she will purchase me a whole meal from WINGSTOP! YEEE! And I have promised that I will purchase a (as in a single whole 1 lol) tiramisu torte from Trader Joe's and share it with everybody! YEEE!
*Complete at least volume 1 of the Korean book that I purchased
Long-term dreams and future goals
*Study for the LSATS and apply by 2015 (why then? because I'm giving myself some time) -- or conversely for me to study and apply for grad school but law school to never be too far off
*Intern at the Hague
*Buy my mom a car
EDIT (2.2.2012) *Stop thinking about the past and all the mistakes I made, and continually look towards tomorrow.
Every day is a new day. It's never too late for me to change into a better person and for me to make better, more informed decisions.
