Completed May, 2008
I worked in the university's coffee shop in the library (8:15 @ Boatwright), which is basically a Starbucks but for some reason not technically licensed. We sell Tazo tea, just like Starbucks does. In an effort to be more health-conscious, I've been trying to drink less coffee/espresso beverages and more tea. On that note, I'm trying to branch out from China Green Tips, which I usually get. We have 12 different kinds, and I liked all of them except for Green Ginger. Zen is my new favorite, and Wild Sweet Orange is really good but it's decaf.

#21 Visit Two New Countries
Completed July, 2007
After leaving Australia and before coming back to the US, I flew to New Zealand for 5 days- New Country #1.
This summer, after visiting Jim, Nicola, and Lynsey in England, Nic and Ash and I flew up from Scotland where we spent a few days roadtripping between Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and a whole bunch of stuff in between- New Country # 2.
Of course, now that I'm planning on moving to London in September 2008, I might have to make a new goal of several new countries to visit.

#64 Make a 10-Item Mini-List of Recommended Goals
I saw this on someone else's blog- it's a small list of suggestions of goals, things that I had already done before I started this list and so I can't actually put on my own list, but which might inspire someone else. What I have so far is:
1. Become an organ donor.
-It's checked on my license, but I think I might have to actually register.
2. Have a conversation in a foreign language with a native speaker.
-I've done this in French, Japanese, and kind of in Spanish.
3. Learn to read music, then play an instrument.
-I sing, and I played violin for 6 years and piano for one.
4. Become CPR certified.
-My certification ran out, but I could probably remember the basics.

# 62 Grow a Bonsai Tree from Seed
In progress
Someone a while ago got me a kit to grow a bonsai tree including the pot, soil, seeds, manual, etc. but I've only just gotten around to planting it. The instructions were a bit vague and I've had the kit for a while, so I don't know if it'll work. If not, I'll try again- maybe I'll grow one in my 'flat' when I move to London!
