18 YKK

High school?
1. Figure out who I am, before I start college, before I start a different life-era. Yeah, I’ve tried personality tests and all that but they don’t really help when you can’t answer the questions that directly ASK YOU ABOUT YOUR PERSONALITY.

It gets exasperating.

But life is already confusing enough without understanding yourself, the things you do, like, think…and I’d just like knowing what I really really want to do before I dive into decisions recklessly. It's definitely possible for you to have ulterior motives for your own actions. I feel like you should know everything about yourself because you are yourself, but it turns out most people don’t know what they’re doing either, or think/pretend they do but actually don’t.

This is also the reason why I slightly obsess over handwriting. For some reason my fingers/brain/eyes keep on changing my handwriting style. Somewhere, having established handwriting correlates with knowing thyself. And this is all rambling but…I like rambling. Finally.

College?
2. finish finish finish for real my book
3. Graduate from a school I love in a major that I love and want to pursue in a career (precisely why #1 is important - I mean, if you don’t know who you are you can’t have a major or even a bucket list that’s meaningful…so is this right now meaningful? I don’t think it matters)
4. Learn how to dance, play guitar
5. Travel. everywhere. Jupiter, other dimensions, inside minds, back to Israel, Peru so that I can surf one of those giant tsunamis
6. Get a Pensieve so that I remember all my travels. Heck, so I remember life. My memory’s wacky and I’d like to meet little me
7. Meaningful relationships - also meet everyone from previous life-eras, God

Life?
8. Actually fall in love with someone. marry him. Live joyfully ever after. For some reason the idea of actually loving someone who loves you back is very foreign but I hope it does happen.
9. go skiing!!!
10. Accompany NatGeo photographer/writer. Wherever they go it seems to be absolutely gorgeous.
11. Vacation to a remote island, for at least a month
12. Knit a scarf (with that free time. scarves are very time-consuming)
13. Fly a plane! I think it would be cool to actually be flying, without the sense of vertigo and fear of heights.
14. Write write write read read read read read read write sing (badly)
15. Be an ambassador and do something for world peace - and if it involves fast action adventures in a foreign country, even better.

I told you I liked rambling.

Some of these are just random goals from off the top of my head that wanted to be included. It could never be three goals.
