Holdin' onto 29 - Sort of a Random List...
Graduated from college
Made friends with some amazing people
Moved to New York City
Lost my brother
Met Joe
Stopped dyeing my hair
Made a fool out of myself quite a bit
Woke up in the middle of the night due to anxiety for the first time(s)
Drank for the first time (I mean really drank)
Started smoking cigarettes regularly
Tried to quit smoking cigarettes regularly (still not successfully - damn those things!)
Learned to run (& to actually appreciate exercise)
Went to a shrink
Stopped going to a shrink
Got contacts
Bought all my clothes second hand & then stopped that when I moved to NYC
Wrote a lot
Got some things published, but it probably averages to about 1 a year
Got a tattoo
Wore a nosering & then decided it was silly & took it out
Went on two vacations with my family -- huge, vacations, I mean
Chased after a certain man for close to two years
Stopped chasing him
Saw a lot of theatre
Saw some live music, mostly in my early twenties
Read a ton of books
Sang karaoke
Started learning to play guitar
Got some plants for the first time ever
Developed a much better relationship with my mom
Got a job I hate that I've had for close to 5 years
Taught for 2 years
Learned to draw (sort of)
Remained an "almost vegetarian" the whole time
Remained cluttered, in general
Moved in with Joe (well, vice versa)
Walked a lot
Went on the AIDS ride (worked on the crew)
Tried Indian, Vietnamese, Thai, Afghani, Japanese, Ethiopian, Korean, food for the first time
Became a better cook
Ran around too much & didn't stay still for one instant
Ate a lot of sweets
Started listening to Public Radio
Started actually liking the news (dang!)
