Goals.

Well, hello.
Lately, I've been thinking much about goals, and what I would like to do with my life. Speaking in short and long terms, of course. I've decided I'd like to live in Europe. Maybe not for my whole life, but for a while, after university, for the experience. I've also begun saving my money to take a trip to England. I was looking at flights and the price of hostels last night. I could do it, most definitely. Besides that, I'd also like to save my money in general.
I've completed a few of these goals already, including to stop eating meat, to shop only vintage and secondhand, and to replace all the products I use to ones that aren't tested on animals. I have a list of some other smaller scale goals too, like getting a job, which really ties into the bigger ones, because of the whole money factor. Walking the dog every day, volunteering somewhere (that's a big one, I feel lately I should be doing more for others than I am at the moment)
But one that I decided yesterday, was to read BBC's list of the "100 Books to Read Before you Die." I've read a few of them, but definitely not the majority. The Bible is going to be a hard one for me, mostly because I have a few opinions on religion, that aren't necessarily pro-religion. Although sometimes I wonder about it. Maybe if I read the Bible I'll decide. Also, "Lolita" is on the list. Lolita is going to be virtually impossible to find. I'm determined to do it, however.
So, there you have it. I intend to accomplish all these goals. I haven't set a time limit for myself, because then I'll rush and do a half-ass job at everything. But everything will happen in my lifetime, I'll make sure of it.
