Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?



One of us! One of us! One of us!

Why the title "100 Goals"? Was this prompted by something in particular?

Jenna I love your paint in Paris goal. What do you think you would paint there? Learning a sword is also cool.

Be good at what I do.

Skills
Maintain Spanish
Improve Japanese reading comprehension
Draw daily
Make art that I would favorite if it weren't my own.

I have already finished my "learn to lockpick" goal, although it is a very basic knowledge that I acquired.

I still have the sword goal that was previously mentioned above. That one is a little tougher to achieve as I probably can't just buy my way to that goal via Amazon....

Jenna I love your paint in Paris goal. What do you think you would paint there?
I would paint a street scene with people sitting at a cafe watching pedestrians walking home with their groceries. Which is so incredibly Paris.

And the sword one is so funny. If I didn't marry into sword-ownership, I probably wouldn't. But Adnarel and I have this big sword hanging on the wall and I feel like it's my nerd duty to learn to use it, haha.

Kind of thought about this for a while, wasn't sure what to post. Now that I'm drinking a beer and relaxed, I think I can throw some thoughts onto a post. I don't often think about what I want to do and just kind of glide through my days...I think it's good to think about some greater goals and set something up to work toward in the future.

Travel (idk travel doesn't interest me as much as most but...)
1.) Take a roadtrip across the U.S., preferably with a good friend
2.) Visit Japan
3.) Visit the countries of my ancestry, so Scotland (again!), Czech Republic, Germany, and I guess Israel.
4.) Go to a ToK meet-up (if it's not in Boston)

Career
5.) Continue improving to become a senior level developer
6.) Eventually become architect level
7.) Join the 6-figure club
8.) Not sure about this one, but maybe eventually found a business or be a founding member of a business. Basically have a vested interested in a company I partially own.

Skills
9.) Learn and become proficient in another programming language
10.) Get better at SQL and database design
11.) Learn a second language (Spanish? Japanese? Wacky third option? Not sure)
12.) Learn piano
13.) Get better at front-end development and design

Health/Nutrition
14.) Have less cheat meals per week, maximum of 1-2.
15.) Get my squat up to 285 or more
16.) Get my bench up to 185 or more
17.) Get my OHP up to 125 or more
18.) Get my Deadlift up to 315 or more
19.) Get my Row up to 225 or more
20.) Eventually, join the 1000 club (combined max bench/deadift/squat of 1000 lbs. Currently at ~620 lbs for working sets!)
21.) Sleep more, and sleep earlier
22.) Eat more, and eat more often
23.) Start actually visiting a doctor for regular check-ups and such
24.) Ditto with a dentist

Lifestyle/Misc
25.) Move out to my own place
26.) Read more books (non specific, I have none in mind, I should just do it more)
27.) Try to play at least 5 new games (as in, games I've never played before) each year
28.) Continue being a godless fiend 8)

Too tired to keep going but that's a good start I think!
