the big 25
June 11, 2009
I like lists.
I live for making lists.
Last year, on my 24h birthday, I made a list of 24 things I wanted to accomplish during my new year. Some were on a timeline, others were simply everyday reminders. My biggest accomplishment was becoming a US citizen in January 
Here are my 25 items (in no particular order) for this year:
- be thankful
- keep recycling
- save
- work hard
- learn portuguese
- be a better emily
- get a bookcase
- Harry Potter/New Moon
- visit Honduras
- use less
- be more independent
- keep spinning
- consume less junk
- second chances
- don’t speed
- love me
- keep reading
- complain less
- get new frames
- facial
- professional massage
- visit Forks
- re-work portfolio
- be happy
- be more responsible

You absolutely have to get a facial with Jane Cowan in Portland. She is the very best at what she does and she’s ridiculously fun too.
I always like those pictures. Remember Juancho el lagarto (juancho the
alligator). You really like that stuff animal. I love you. Happy 25th.
