So this is the list. I'm generally not a do-er in my day to day life. If it isn't directly tied to film then it can take a lot to motivate me. I also tried to stay away from that giant if time, money, etc wasn't a factor type stuff. I have a bucket list for that stuff. I wanted things I could actually do in one year. It is mostly stuff I've put off for some reason or things that I think will pull me out of the work, tv, internet daily schedule I have going on. I will try to post as many pics and videos I can to accompany the blog. Enjoy!
1. Practice the guitar every week (aim for a new song a month)
2. Read 30 new books
3. Lose 30lbs (I know I should aim higher on this one but I want it to be a realistic thing. I don't want the year to be just about one thing)
4. Go to Vidcon
5. Go on a solo mini-trip and stay in a nice hotel by myself
6. For one month become a locavore
7. Run a 5K
8. Avoid and break off unhealthy friendships and relationships (i know this one seems a bit vague but I have some ideas about finally breaking ties with people that are just bad for me)
9. Go camping for a long weekend
10. Take a dance class
11. Dye my hair something other than dark brown.
12. Grow my hair out past my shoulder blades
13. Cook 1 new recipe a month. I always say I'm going to do this but after awhile I just fall back on the staples and take out.
14. Sign myself up to be an Ally (LGBT education program) volunteer again

18. Clean out 2nd closet and donate as much as possible to charity
19. Learn sign language
20. Write and send my mother one letter a month. She always writes me and I think has given up on me ever writing back :(

22. Develop a constant month-to-month budget.
23. Buy fresh flowers for the house at least once a month.
24. Finish watching all of AFI's 100 years, 100 films list. Watched 62 of them so far.
