28 in 2008 - August 1, 2008 -
I’m not that great at setting goals, but I decided to give it a try. So at the beginning of the year, I decided to make a list of 28 things that I would like to get accomplished in 2008. Some of them seem simple, others unrealistic (for me), but I decided to just scatter it around and see what I can do.
