24 Plans for my 24th Year

1. Go Climbing twice a week, climb a 6c+ and start climbing outside
2. Play the piano at least once a week and make sure I’m learning at least two ‘proper pieces’ at any one time
3. Keep in better contact with friends from far away.
4. Take better advantage of my weekends
5. Do some German once a week
6. Watch the first three series of 24 in German
7. Listen to enough opera to start enjoying it
8. Eat enough Stilton to start enjoying it
9. Run a 38 minute 10k
10. Befriend more Postgraduates
11. Don’t be afraid of mixing my friends
12. Write a short story
13. Stop buying chocolate bars
14. Stop being lazy about shaving.
15. Woo a beautiful lady atop a remote Balkan mountain.
16. Get 200 hits on my blog a week
17. Go to a conference
18. Write a paper
19. Host some parties
20. Put £3000 in the ISA
21. Support the team that wins Euro 2008
22. Make sure people cook for each other in my new house
23. Learn to cook a vegetarian meal that couldn’t be improved by adding some meat
24. Convert a militant atheist to agnosticism
25. Go to more amateur theatre (H.M.S. Pinafore was excellent)
26. Find a singer/clarinettist to play Jazz with.
27. Attain Adonis-like physique

The more numerically inclined among you may observe that there are infact more than 24 things in this list. But then some of them, such as number 27, are just reannouncements of old ambitions so they don’t really count. And yes I know this is a week late but Warwick Blogs was down on my birthday and i’ve been busy since.
