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.

looks like a lot of mine are on your list too!
You might have to keep me accountable, then. The list is looking quite overwhelming already :)
Happy belated. List, I love lists. Good luck and persevere.
Thanks. Glad you liked the list.
