What are some goals that you have yet to achieve?

I'm being completely serious..
For the past 2 years I've had a goal where I stay completely single, and be only "friends" with guys.




I have yet to achieve that goal. That might sound like a stupid goal.. but it's a serious one for me. but I have yet to achieve it!

*write a book
*be in a poet-rock band
*become a psychologist
*become a zen buddhist monk
*fall in love
*be accepted
*learn how to swim..

Traveling to any continent other that north america and europe. The plan is to get that outta the way next spring.

I have no idea what comes after that.

1. Cracking the 100 k income barrier. I hope to do that in the next 2 years
2. Finishing my first book. I hope to do that in the next year, though I've been trying for the last 5
3. Properly furnishing my house. That will be delayed a bit thanks to the money it required to visit Europe.
4. Obtain wave runners, and learn Kite Surfing.

1) Moving out (i'm currently saving for a down payment to own a townhouse, so hey at least i'm moving in that direction)
2) Getting married (will i ever??? )
3) go on fucking vacation this year!!!! (BECAUSE I NEED THAT SHIT!!!)

I put that on my goal list every year then Im like "Next year!", but I need to find a man to marry first.

Paradisekiss03 said:

i guess thats the difference with being 15.
while everyone else is trying to get married and stuff and get men..


im trying to keep them away!

Paradisekiss03 said:

yes and the summer time is really an annoying time for a single woman who is surrounded by other women getting married every fucking weekend!!! Sometimes I wonder if i will ever get married. I really don't want to be one of those 40-ish women are highly successful without a family.

missfee said:

Sometimes I want to get married and sometimes I don't. Recently a friend of mine got married, and then I feel like I should too, but then I am like "Not yet".

Paradisekiss03 said:

yeah, it's all about timing. I feel that the time is definitely not right for me to get married at this moment, but i hope that it will happen sometime within the next two years at least.

No, no, it ain't a "15" thing.

*get a job that pays enough so that I don't have to constantly be worrying about money.


and one "pipedream" goal: move to Paris and start my own sightseeing company for English speaking tourists.

Backpack the Highlands

Absolute power over this planet and it's inhabitants.

Better off, men suck

Get back to the weight I was in '97.

then

Marry a multi billionaire then divorce him, taking half of his fortune.

Either that or

Get a better paying job and buy a house.

Tattooing myself.

1) Get a job in Charlotte, so I can get the hell out of Cleveland (I'm working on it!)

2) Rent a townhouse for a year that is nicer than the apartment-style condo that I live in now.

3) Sell my apartment-style condo (since I own it), take the money for a downpayment on a house or another townhouse that doesn't need a lot of fixing up.

4) Go back to school and get into a career with animals (if I can find one that pays enough!)

Wow, notice how none of my goals mention getting married or having kids.

you still haven't settled on a design yet?

I havent given it real serious thought to be fair.

JDInteractive said:

I get that, I'm lazily figuring out where to put my last one.

1. Retire from the military (5 years, 8 months and counting...)

2. Finish my degree in Sociology/Political Science

3. See my kids off to the next phase of their lives (both will be out of the house in the next 4/5 years....see how nicely that coincides with #1? )

4. Help my wife finish her culinary arts degree, then help her open a restaurant (her goal since before we started dating back when dinosaurs ruled the earth...)

5. Continual improvement of my fitness levels and body appearance so that I can grace the cover of Men's Health or Men's Fitness magazine ....also to coincide with #1...

6. Lots of travel....

Buy a home, my daughter and I need our space

And something that I thought I would never do but have been strongly thinking about, getting a new job. Im so comfortable where Im at that I never thought I would leave. But Im topped out so I need to make more money so that I can buy that home

You know what? When we were there a few weeks ago i said to Valory "i would love to bring Mach,TR and the kids here..there would love every moment of it"

write a cookbook.

buy a house in the countryside.

I have always resisted this and it has never been a part of my life plan for many reasons but now i am settled and happy with the choice to have children at some time in the future.
Growth within my relationship
Work on the parts of my personality that caused me to lose myself before
Close the physical distance as soon as possible

On a more flippant level....

Continued growth of the business to allow more financial choices
Finish decorating the house
New car at some point
Work on my "arsehole" factor so that i can get faster on the bike.....

*Finish my computer studies (in a year or so)
*Learn how 2 play the guitar
*Go in a specific island
That's all 4 now sure I got more in mind but who cares lol
