some unfinished business

there are a lot of things that i am doing at this point in time. then there are the things that i should be doing, such as sleep, doing homework, or, well, not procrastinating. but i often hear people say, "you don't remember the times you stayed up studying, you remember the fun you had outside of studies." so in an effort to have fun and not do my homework, i decided that i should post another blog and dust off my list of unfinished business

i've come to realize that 1.] i absolutely love making lists about anything. in fact, after i finish this list, i am going to move onto making a grocery list for tomorrow [or i suppose later today]. oh, and i also realized that 2.] i haven't been putting much effort into accomplishing this list as of late. which is sad because some of them are fast approaching in terms of opportune times and i'd hate to miss them [like getting my degree for instance]

i guess you could call this my bucket list, but basically this is my list of things that will keep me from dying. that is, i can't die until this list is completed. saavy? let's hope this ends up ringing true. and if you want to help me accomplish some of these that'd be super helpful, cause there is a lot that i want to learn : )
