2014 To Do List, Revisited

I've made a couple of posts talking about my yearly "to-do" list. Basically, on January 1st of each year (this is my third year of doing this), I make a list of 40 things I want to accomplish during the year rather than creating resolutions that I know that I will break. I'm a serial list maker, which is probably why I enjoy writing the list more than I enjoy trying to accomplish everything on it. It's tough! And it probably looks like I've got nothing done on the list, but there is still time left!

1. Read 35 books (21/35)
2. Keep straight A’s
3. Get 8,000 songs on my iPod
4. Run more often
5. Try to be more present in people’s lives
6. Finish my story
7. Get a pair of Rayban Clubmasters
8. Run on the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk
9. Bake at least 10 things that I have pinned (6/10)
10. Re-do my bedroom at home
11. Go to opening day for the Indians
12. Go to Chicago
13. Take more photos
14. Reteach myself basic Photoshop and HTML skills
15. Write every day --- fill up a notebook
16. Grow a flower and keep it alive all spring and summer
17. Go a day without my phone and computer
18. Stop waiting for people to find me interesting, find other people interesting first
19. Take better care of my blogs
20. Stop being afraid to make that first move
21. Meet Harry Styles 
22. Get front row at a concert
23. Learn a new language, other than Spanish
24. Do a DIY/craft that I have pinned
25. Save my money for study abroad in 2015!
26. Get a job other than working for my uncle
27. Confidence is key!
28. Apply for internships or at least make a resume
29. Put my dusty piano skills to good use
30. Go to the Albright Knox Art Museum
31. Finish Devil’s Hole
32. People watch at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for a few hours
33. Start making yoga part of a weekly routine
34. Try something new
35. Drink more tea
36. Figure out the Cleveland bus system
37. Cut down on Starbucks and try going to Phoenix and Peet’s more
38. Make Italy 2015 happen
39. Visit Uncle Tom in Brooklyn (Should happen in November)
40. Fix the CD player in my car (birthday present)

Looks like I've got a bit of work to do, huh? It's funny to look back at the things that I thought were important on January 1st though. Why was I so dead set on playing the piano more or about drinking tea and saving money? I mean, clearly the only two important goals on this list are to read 35 books and meet Harry Styles....All jokes aside, it's always fun to look back at what was important to me. It seems like forever ago when I made this list...
