Great goals and bravo for accomplishing so many! I too have had the goal of getting a new job, and sadly, it's not accomplished :( On to 2010... lol
You have a very acommplished blog dear. That's cool that you made a list. I don't think I did this last year. Hmmm...I think the only I thing I did was lose weight. I like your goal of bringing back the independent woman I once was. I think I need to do that too. Well there is always next year & this month. =)
finish collage on time with a degree - done!!
find a good job and an apartment to live - negative!!
those are just the two of them and nope, i'm not successful at it..
love
"Stick with my blog and continue to grow it everyday and eventually publish something now that I know people will actually read it!"
Oh, THAT'S why I'm here! :D
But no seriously, keep up the good work.
I don't think I made a list of goals like that, but I did start the 101 in 1001 challenge...which I've been a failure at the past couple months. Still, since it's 3.5 years long, I can't really say I've failed until 2011 :D
I think I might need to make some resolutions for 2010...
I'm impressed you;ve completed so many of your goals!
I aim to achieve one new thing every year. This year it was to complete my Masters degree which I received the certificate for in the post today. Next year is to travel the world...I went to the travel agents and booked all my flights and stuff yesterday!
What happened to teaching? I guess because I'm sp crazy about it right now....
I'm amazed with how people can make lists of things to do. I wish I had it in me. Goodluck with 2010!
Ohhh honey, ur always such an amazing inspiration!!!! Can I be u when I grow up???
=)
