Goal List Update

Working On:

#5 Achieve BMI of 24.9 or less

Well I have been doing relatively well with this goal. From February - August I lost 30 pounds and from August until now I have been maintaining that loss haha!! After the accident I sort of took a hiatus from the gym however I am back at it and have the aches and pains to prove it. I've also stopped eating they yummy delightful food in the above photo. Seriously the best chip wagon poutine and shrimp EVER!!!

Or this ginormous fried panzaratti that could take a week to eat! How I miss them so *sniff*

#10 Learn to play guitar/bass well enough to play one song

I had my first guitar lesson last week and found it rather challenging as I had difficulty reaching my fingers around the neck due to my very small hands. Apparently they will "stretch out" eventually. I was a bit frustrated as I was hoping it would come easily to me and it just didn't. My teacher explained that everything is difficult at first, I guess I just haven't tried to learn something like this in such a long long time that I forgot I wouldn't be a pro at it from the get go. Baby steps Ash, baby steps!!

#35 Read all of the unread books on my shelf 4/35

I clearly need to finish one book before I start the next because right now I have 3 on the go. My new goal for my goal is to finish reading one before I start another one!

#41 Visit 15 of my placements at work 11/15

So as I mentioned previously this is no longer in my job description however an opportunity came up and I was able to visit 5 more placements. I just have to figure out how I can get the other 4 in!

Completed:

#13 Watch a Bond Movie

I borrowed two Bond films from my friend about two years ago (sorry) and I FINALLY decided to watch Goldeneye. It was quite as expected with a lot of fighting and action. I'll probably watch another one at some point in my life (perhaps the one 2DP had talked about...only for the naked Bond scene) but I'm not rushing out to rent them.

#51 Dye my hair a new colour (IE black)

Well I certainly did not go that extreme but I was ready for a change and got rid of the blonde. I'm now sporting a more brown/caramel colour. It's alright......I was actually thinking of doing a few purple strips again just for fun.

#64 Attend a movie at the theatre alone

I went to see the Changeling all by my lonesome and you know what...it wasn't that bad after all. In fact I'm not sure why I haven't done this before. In total there were about 15 people in the theatre 3 of which were alone. I did end up going to a matinee as I'm not yet ready for a Friday night solo however it was a super foggy/rainy day and I did think that the theatre would be a lot busier than it actually was. Phew I didn't see anyone I knew :)

#65 Go skinny dipping

Well this one is self explanatory so no details from this gal!! But I will tell you that I enjoyed it :)
