summer list, revisited

So, I thought I should take a look back at the list I made at the beginning of the summer of things to do, and figure out my progress. After all, there's only a week and a half left of summer for me! [I'm not going to pretend that I'm not a little devastated by that sentence.]

Here we are. x=done!, /=in process or partly done, ..=not done

[..] have a wheatgrass shot from Jamba Juice
[..] conquer Kingdom Hearts! Wow. I haven't even thought of this until looking at this list just now.
[/] get over my laziness and clean out my disastrous bedroom  I have a lot of STUFF that I'm just having a hard time sorting through, but I'm determined to start school with a clean bedroom!
[..] finish reading every book I've started and abandoned It's just not going to happen. I abandoned those books for a reason.
[/] make a few new music videos I made a silly minute-long video to "Leavin" by Jesse McCartney. Found on YouTube under the account name Steviek11.
[..] sew a dress! {like one of these, maybe} I just haven't found a pattern of my liking yet. Who knows, maybe I can kick one out before summer ends if Project Runway inspires me.
[..] take Traxx up to Salt Lake
[/] make dinner for the fam twice a week Well, I'm usually the one [with Missy] to pickup dinner, but I admit I haven't made homemade dinner twice a week.
[/] finish Bryant's song, Empty Shell I worked up through the first chorus, but I'm not sure he really wants to finish.. Eh, Bry?
[..] work at Illustrator until I am proud of myself I did finally buy my own CS2 version of Illustrator, but I just haven't worked on it yet.
[x] wear shorts... Once was enough for me. I remember why I don't like them. I look weirdo.
[/] wash and lotion my face every night before bed I'm getting in the habit! I moisturize like the best of em, but washing is just so time consuming and I do it in the shower anyway..
[..] run 1/2 a mile without stopping I haven't tried this one out yet, but I think I can...
[x] DRAW! I finished Betty! But my scanner has been on the fritz for the whole summer.. I guess I could take a picture.
[..] pay a visit to Timp Cave
[/] resist cutting my hair Yay! I have and it's getting long!
[x] spend more time outside
[/] take Daisy on more walks
[..] do some Henna Argh! I want to! I just need to remember to think of it and GO buy some.
[..] watch silent and foreign films Library, here I come!
[..] take up yoga again, possibly Pilates I got a DVD for a dollar called, "Pilates for Whimps" I watched it, but haven't done it. I'm so lazy!
[x] sleep with my window open Yep, love it. Other than creepy thoughts of murderers or kidnappers climbing through in the night.. But mostly it's lovely.
[/] visit family more I hope the Drews get feeling better soon! I want to see them.
[x] don't be afraid to talk to strangers
[x] watch less TV

[/] improve my recycling habits
[/] get all albums and album art accurate in my iPod Oh my. I am about halfway done. I've updated close to 1,500 songs. Oy!
[..] get the family to get their moles checked out Haven't been to an official doctor but my family has taken to freezing some off at home. Haha.
[/] go to bed and wake up at decent hours
[x] call friends and go out more, with the family and without
[/] work on my posture - yoga should help with that!
[..] take up watercolour again
[/] go on more bike rides around the town
[x] get a new bathing suit and spend some time at the pool
[..] be able to do a handstand on my bionic wrist
[..] get my employee pictures from the lovely Nicole Hill The more I visit her site, the more intimidated I am to ask her for them. [Again.]
[x] try a new restaurant
[/] take an Institute class
[x] go on a road trip CHECK! Seattle.
[x] spend more time on my knees
[..] attend the ballet
[..] attend a Utah Symphony concert
[x] play Rock Band drums on expert! I've played approximately three songs on Expert!
[/] give copies to the owners of the doggies I took pictures of Everyone has copies but the Dyers...
[x] go to a concert
[..] have a sleepout under the stars in my backyard

Good job allsie! I'm coughing up a lung today, you are welcome any time at all, I'll let you know when I'm mostly better and probably not contagious anymore. I'm impressed with all you've done this summer.
