29 before 29 or My New Year's Resolutions...

I'm not big on resolutions. I tend to make some pretty good ones each year, follow them for a couple of weeks and then somehow forget about them before February even comes around. 
This year instead of making resolutions I wanted to do a list of 29 things to accomplish before I turn 29. Since my birthday is at the end of this month (fifteen days!) I figured they could double as my resolutions. 
Here they are:

29 Before 29:  

1. Read 12 for pleasure books 

2. Read 6 books that will teach me something 

3. Get accepted to UO 

4. Win a scholarship to UO 

5. Get a job in my future field (whatever that is) 

6. Become a better far-away friend/relative 

7. Buy, wear and be comfortable in a bikini this summer 

8. Take a trip with the mister 

9. Get the car into the garage

10. Organize all my craft stuff 

11. Make a compost pile

 I'm not a big fan of female comedians but I love Chelsea Handler! This book was just as good as the other two and I still don't have a favorite. 

Mark that off the list:

For Pleasure Books: 1/12
