Another list...

This one's a little different. Tonight I was going through old journals from high school. I have at least fifteen of them in a box in my closet, and mostly they're pretty boring and repetitive. But I found this list that I wrote my sophomore year of high school. It's a list of things to do before I die. There was an exclamation point on that, too, although I don't think it belongs there now. Keep in mind I was at a weird point in my life...

Anyway, I started reading it, but was pretty sure my goals were unrealistic, or way-future. Basically I thought I hadn't accomplished any. It makes me feel really good that I actually have, although a lot of these things are subjective.
