summer goals.

my favorite summer drink: Panera's cherry smoothie

at the beginning of the summer, I set a few goals... some realistic, some not... some fun, some not.

let's see where we stand, with only two weeks left to complete...

1. redesign room: rearranged but not redesigned... I've bought paint and chosen projects, though!
2. start a blog and etsy shop: done and done!
3. prepare for AP Physics: bought a prep book/study guide, but haven't read it yet
4. read at least 20 books: only read 2.
5. languages: learn ASL, advance Spanish, start Mandrin: I've mastered basic ASL (American Sign Language), but haven't worked on spoken languages.
6. narrow down colleges: I haven't narrowed down names of particular colleges, but I've decided on size and location.
7. practice writing and design: I've written for this space, and designed a few things in Photoshop Elements (both images above) and Illustrator.
8. 100 volunteer hours: I've only done 5 or 10 max. pathetic!
9. 100 miles of running: I'm at 36.5, over a third done. here come the two-a-days! (yay Kenyans!)
10. intensely study biology: haven't done at all! I want to focus on botany and biochem.
11. design and plan environmental club and yearbook: haven't yet! this is imperative before school starts.
12. own a DSLR camera and know how to use it. I've been saving for years, but especially this summer! I'm only $100 away now!! please support our shop... all my profits are going towards photography right now!

phew! looks like I'll have a busy last two weeks!

what are your summer goals? are you reaching them?
