30 things to do before I'm 30

Chanlee put it quite nicely, I’m “on the cusp of a new era.” Reader take note: that new era is still a year away, and with this era not quite done, may I present my New Year’s/birthday resolutions (including one made during Sunday School!): 30 things to do before I turn 30. With 30 things to do in 12 months, I’m looking at 2+ items per month. Therefore, I will try to keep these goals simple and concrete. In no particular order:
- Graduate.
- Publish at least one academic paper.
- Revamp this blog (more on that in future posts).
- Build a portfolio.
- Complete unfinished website projects.
- Learn PHP.
- Learn AJAX.
- Learn Flash.
- Master Photoshop.
- Master CSS.
- Learn to use our Digital Rebel.
- Receive my green card (it is coming soon!).
- Make money (Graduate stipends don’t count).
- Own an iPhone.
- Own a Wii.
- Read through the Bible.
- Share Christ with at least one person.
- Focus on God’s loving and merciful character.
- Write more to and pray more for Ido, a child we’re sponsoring through Compassion.
- Pray more for other people.
- Post more on this blog.
- Establish regular exercising regimen.
- Organize files — physical and electronic.
- Organize cluttered email inboxes.
- Sleep earlier and wake up earlier.
- Watch Season 6 of 24.
- Help Chanlee with her Mandarin.
- Write down ideas in my Moleskine notebook.
- Have a site featured on CSS Remix or CSS Beauty.
- Start using Google ads (but not on this blog, hopefully).
Hmm, looks more daunting than I originally hoped. 30 is a bit much — especially for someone who doesn’t normally make New Year’s resolutions! — but for the sake of the gimmick, I’ll keep it that way. The goal, of course, is too accomplish as many items as possible.

You might have to keep me accountable, then. The list is looking quite overwhelming already :)
