For the helluvit, here’s 5 of my goals for every 5 years.

Current age: 24

So, by the time I am 29:

• MOVE OUT (hopefully by this summer)
• Work in a field relevant to my English degree (preferably as a columnist for some sorta “alternative” magazine)
• Learn guitar
• Move in with BF, and eventually marry (:D)
• Should prolly get a credit card at some point…

By the time I’m 34:

• Publishing something(s) worthwhile
• Own a house (will settle for spiffy treehouse or mountain hut)
• “Own” at least a dozen rescued animals of various sorts
• Go skydiving/hand gliding/cliff diving/other EXTREME SPORTS shit
• Backpack Europe

By the time I’m 39:

• Continue publishing something(s) worthwhile; hopefully have established name
• At least consider a baby…no more than two (twins run in the family, yaaay)
• Grad school…possibly teaching “alternative” English class (I’d love to teach a coarse on Calvin & Hobbes, though that might transcend into philosophical territory)
• Move to N’awlins??
• Meet Anne Rice and/or Stephen King
