- Get out of bed the first time the alarm rings, rather than after several snoozes lasting an hour more, at some point, I'm just torturing myself and should just get another hour of good sleep (written after midnight on a school night)
- Take a flying lesson. I did give myself the whole month to get this done, but I'm just not on the path. I have excuses, but I'm not here to write excuses, I'm here to make a list.
- Write the summary, one-pager of my next screen play. I have distracted myself with all sorts of things, but mostly I need to decide how this bad boy is going to end, before I start writing -- and I am truly itching to write.
- Buy a desk and chair. I even know what I want to buy, but somehow feel uncertain in these economic times, and right after buying a bunch of crap last month.
- Stop buying crap. I know that doesn't exactly flow with the others, but it is something I have been meaning to do... but haven't.
- Find a class associated with film making to take. Get perspectives on Super 8, 16MM and digital. What is the deal? Something like that. I found some interesting work shops in Toronto, and if I weren't forced to take all my vacation this summer, I would do it this year. Besides, it's been way too long since I've been to Canada.
- Re-sign up for eHarmony. I know this sounds off, but I've got to start dating again, and I live in a somewhat isolated community.\
- Move to NYC or LA or possibly DC. I don't think I need to explain this one...
- Start a company
- Learn to program C or another object based program...This I can do at the local community college. easy peasy...
- Find out how to start a non-profit.
- shorten my list of things I haven't done.
So, there it is. My list of things. Things I think would be really good for me. Now to start getting these things done! I'll keep you posted.
that's funny. in your RSS feed, the list is numbered, but here, they are flower bullet points.
ReplyDeleteit's probably too late in life to wean yourself off of your alarm clock, but it makes morning's so much more pleasant.
I'm gonna come down there and make you buy a desk and a chair.
Give me all your money and you can't buy more crap.
I've got a great guy for you to date. ;)
You should move to Chicago. It's the bestest.
Try Java first. It's object-oriented (OO) and fairly easy to grasp and will teach you a lot of basics of coding.
Talk to Kukla Rhon about how to start an non-profit. She's not the most organized person in the world, and that's frustrating, but she's been there, done that and can you how to get it done.
