Lists.

(Nicked the idea from Mer and Neena's blogs...)

Things to do while I'm alive:
• learn a foreign language
• visit Italy, England, and Spain... and maybe Africa
• graduate from college
• live in a big city
• take martial arts
• read the other 91 books on my "top 100 books you should have already read" list
• never settle
• take a drawing class
• learn a new instrument
• live more
• regret less
• get good at the tango
• stop trying to fix people
• learn to ski
• buy a pair of Jimmy Choos (or other ridiculously extravagant shoes)
• tell my family more often how much I love them

More things I love: (I did this one recently - fortunately, lots of things make me happy...)
• shoes
• the fact that I have friends who know everything about me and like me anyway
• cheese
• Luis (who is reading over my shoulder, and is sad that he came after both cheese and shoes... rest assured, these are not in any type of order)
• sleeping bags
• pulling out splinters
• people who are willing to go out of their way to help someone else, especially when the someone is a stranger
• sassy old ladies
• bare feet in cool grass
• writing
• sangria

Things which irk me:
• rude people
• hangnails
• drivers who don't know the rules at a four-way stop
• "reality" television
• misspelled signs, flyers or any type of published text
• people who make everything about them
• wasps
• people who don't think for themselves
