another year gone by :: 2007 in review

For some strange reason I really like lists. I like making lists, I like writing lists, I like reading lists. So here are a couple of my lists for your reading pleasure.

Best Memories of 2007 ::

• Not having to work at Weis Markets ever again.
• Spending Memorial Day weekend at Pymatuning Lake with the family, and getting yelled at by the cops for riding on the back of my dad’s car.
• Greeting a third little Geiser baby into the world, Rachael.
• Impact 2007 with the Shepherdstown UMC youth group :: water balloon attacks, Walmart runs, Lonard’s yummy cooking, good music
• Visit to Seattle, WA :: Mars Hill Graduate School, Mount Rainier, etc…
• Golden family retreat to Deep Creek, MD
• Turning 23 years old.

Things I’d like to do in ‘08 ::

• Ride in a hot air balloon (this is always at the top of every one of my lists, but I have yet to complete it….)
• Read my Bible more often.
• Finish reading Crime & Punishment for heaven’s sakes!
• Lose some weight……..or to be specific, a lot of weight.
• Raise $$ for a trip to China
• Learn some new difficult classical guitar pieces
• Be a better listener
• Get back into the habit of journaling
• Get rid of all my excess junk
• Stop using “busyness” as an excuse for not doing things or seeing people
• Watch less TV and movies — this will be especially hard now that Lost will be back on soon!!
• Move to Seattle and love every minute of it.
