To complete this goal: Create a meal plan on a weekly or monthly basis at least 4 times. Prepare meals and snacks in advance so I actually follow the meal plan (with reasonable deviations) at least 4 times.
Why? Eating right is a huge contributing factor to how good I feel. To be more responsible about taking proper care of myself food wise is a big step in the right direction. I'm sick of being on a stupid blood sugar level induced emotional roller coaster.

097. Get my diploma framed
To complete this goal: Have my Bachelor of Music diploma framed. When I get my Master of Music diploma, have that framed too.
Why? Even though it's just a piece of paper, I am proud of myself for earning those degrees. I want them to be safe and protected- and displayable!

096. Clean up and organize my computer
To complete this goal:
Internal-
Go through all the folders on my laptop and external hard drive.
Reorganize into easy to find categories.
Delete unnecessary files.
External-
Clean keyboard/fan out with compressed air.
Clean laptop screen.
Why? It's so hard to find things on my computer, and I know there's a lot of crap on there I'll never need or use again. Simplify and organize, divide and conquer- make it easier for me to get stuff done.

095. Sort through Zune music and make playlists
To complete this goal: Download all music from my old (broken) Zune to my computer. Listen to all music and delete the stuff I don't like. Make at least 10 playlists and upload them to my new Zune.
Why? I have so much random music that I'm not sure I've ever listened to! Because music is such an important part of my life, I want to make it easier for myself to listen to music that fits my mood.

094. Clean out and update all social networking sites
To complete this goal: Right now I'm on two social networking sites- Facebook and Myspace. I never did anything with my myspace account, so I would like to just delete it completely. As for Facebook, update my profile (haven't updated it in at least three years), remove any friends that I'm not actually friends with, update profile picture, and download all tagged photos of me (then untag the unflattering ones). If I decide to get on Linked In or any sites like that, similarly keep things updated.
Why? I don't really enjoy social networking sites. I find that they become a time suck and are emotionally draining in terms of the bs that ends up on there. However, they come in handy for some things, so I don't want to get rid of them completely. Making my web presence a more accurate reflection of my real life presence just makes sense.

093. Go through my room at home
To complete this goal: Sort through my things that I have left in my room at my parents house. Decide what to get rid of, what to keep with me, if anything is appropriate to temporarily leave in the (now) quasi-guest room, and what to put into storage (only if absolutely necessary!)
Why? My parents want to be able to use that room as a real guest room, and I really don't need all that stuff anymore. Going through all those papers and books and knick knacks should be nice a cathartic.

092. Keep a simple housekeeping program
To complete this goal: Develop a simple, consistent schedule to keep my apartment tidy and not like a sad tornado has ripped through it, making it difficult for people to find places to sit, to set their glasses, or to walk unmolested to the sink. It would be nice for me to not be embarrassed to have people over.
Why? As I mentioned, it would be so great if I could invite people over without shame. Also, my mom makes those little comments that I so dislike about the state of my living place. And that's not even including how tiring and frustrating it becomes for me personally, to live like this. Time for a change! Time to grow up a little bit!

091. Have a camera and notebook with me
To complete this goal: Carry my camera around. Have something to write on and write with. Be prepared to record ideas, moments, or tasks at any given time.
Why? So often I'll have an idea or think of something that would be good for me to do, only to realize I have nothing to write it on. Granted, most of those ideas are probably not as great as I thought they were at the time, but still. The camera is because I am trying to be better about capturing moments or events or just things that amuse me. I have almost no pictures from my undergrad years, and it makes me a little sad.
