attempt number 2

so i got my canadian visa paperwork done pretty early. got back home around 11 and decided to cook for lunch since tim was around.

on the menu: baked chicken

i know that sounds blah. haha.. but i swear, it was pretty good.=) i baked it with butter, bread crumbs and parmesan cheese. and it turned out better than i expected (then again, i expected the worst :-p).

next on the list: adobo. maybe this weekend. if i can do groceries. i do owe el dinner for losing at bowling. haha..

so i went back to my 24 goals/hopes for my 24th year of existence and i find that i'm slowly crossing things off one by one:

20. cut down on shopping -- this was inevitable :-p
21. start learning how to cook (like, real food. no mango ref cakes. haha) -- on a roll so far
22. reconnect with old friends.. and relatives i haven't really hung out with. -- for being so far away, i'm doing a pretty well on this
23. fall in love again -- =)

and i'm sticking to some of my goals:

1. write at least 1 poem every three months -- wrote new york nirvana and four to the floor so far
3. go to at least one good gig every other month -- went to see carina round in february, and brand new and reel big fish in april
7. travel to at least 4 cities i've never been to before -- i didn't mean cities, i meant places. haha.. so far, i've been to philly. tomorrow i'm going to montreal, canada. on wednesday, i'll be in ottawa, canada. then i'm looking forward to hitting up ocean city, maryland this summer.
16. stay for good -- maybe.. most likely =)

so far, it's looking good. =)
