Mid-Summer Goals

I know it is already July 16, but there are still a few things I want to before its all over.

• READ! - I started reading a great book about Jim Palmer and Earl Weaver over my vacation in North Carolina. It is an awesome read, but I’m just a bad book reader. I want to finish it soon and I have a few other books I would like to read before I go back to school.
• Modify my car – So far I have tinted the windows and added an antenna and a German plate to my 04 Passat. I’ve got lots of ideas of what is next, I just need to financially be able to do make them all happen. There is a VW Show in York, PA on August 2nd that I plan to attend and a huge show on September 28 in Ocean City that I would like to go to.
• Save some cash - This might conflict with my second goal, but I would like to put away some money for the school year. So far I have been pretty good about saving, I just need to continue it.
• Learn to cook - When I first moved into my apartment I ate horribly, because I had never cooked a decent meal in my life. It was frozen burritos and canned foods for quite some time. It drove me crazy. So I have been learning to cook a few little things as I go and I hope to keep that going. I make pretty good chicken quesadillas, chicken tacos, and have even baked cookies. I don’t expect to be an expert, I just want to have a good foundation of meals for the next school year.
• Keep zamwi moving – I have a lot of goals for this blog. It took a bit of time off but I want to make sure that does not happen anymore. I would like to do more video work on the site, because that is where the internet is moving and an area that I love. I want to try and post good information as well as keeping my friends who are all over the world updated with what is going on in my life.
• Document – I bought a Flip camera about a month ago just for fun. I have been carrying it with me everywhere and it has become a part of my day. I want to film some of the exciting parts of my life and share them right here.
• Take advantage of every free second – I stay up late and sleep in, but I want to make sure that any free time I have I take advantage of. So far I’ve been to North Carolina, New York City, Washington D.C., and Hershey Park twice. I’d say I’m off to a good start.

So that’s where I am. I’ll check back at the end of August to see how I did.

What do you want to do with the rest of your summer?
