My progress so far...
1.
- Done! I finished it on February 16, 2011. I started my second one on February 26th.
- I've been working on this once since Nick and I broke up in late February. I've gone to karaoke, house parties, bars, bbqs, movie nights, breakfast clubs, and book club meetups. I'm doing new things all the time!
- I definitely have a bunch of really good individual friends. Still trying to find a 'group' to join, though.
- This goal became significantly easier to reach at the end of February. Hmm, wonder why...
6. Read two books a month (for fun!).
--> I'm a tiny bit behind but thus far I've read:
- Freedom
- High Fidelity
- Hunger Game Trilogy
- Something Borrowed
- World War Z
- The Paris Wife
- Breakfast at Tiffany's
- The Girl in Hyacinth Blue
- Interpreter of Maladies (short stories)
- Secret Lives of People in Love (short stories)
- The Engines of God
- Team of Rivals

- I went with my mom last weekend to get one. My feet were awfully blistered and calloused from my flats and wedges!
- Since I'm no longer dating a vegetarian, this goal isn't as important as it used to be. That said, I have been baking up a storm lately with delicacies such as apple tarte tatin, apple tart, strawberry cake, red velvet cupcakes, and cake pops!

Although I haven't had this list in front of me, I'm glad to say that 6 months into this new year (when the hell did that happen?!) I've actually done a number of these. I'm going to spend the rest of the year trying to do more. I doubt I'll do all of it, but I think I could do quite a number more.
