quit obsessively checking zumthor.tumblr.com every 30 minutes to see if a new project is posted.
count to 10 every time a political thread is created. and then leave the room. and then the country. france. france sounds good in october and november, right?
make use of the 12 for a buck leads i bought over christmas. 2H rules!
make at least 1 model a week. size, quality, etc. doesn't matter.

-Start the dreaded licensure process (after bitching about it forever here on archinect) - because it seems that is the only way to get higher in the pecking order.
-Start thinking about buying a place, however small, to not having to pay rent (and pay mortgage instead)
Bicycling daily metric half centuries (31 miles). Up to 24-26 miles daily rides comfortably now.
Also, finding a new line of work because what I do has been officially outlawed as of this year. I have to become a CPA now (which involves about 20 hours of more school plus exams) or find a new jobs. So much for the entrepreneurial spirit!
Also, do another riding-for-charity thing like I did last month. I did a little pledge drive that who ever sent me an e-mail or text message, I would ride and donate $0.10 a mile plus $10 for every pound of muscle gained. Ended up racking up over 200 miles on bike ridden for charity plus put on 4 pounds of lean body mass and lost 2 pounds of fat. So, I raised around $86. Have yet to figure out who to give it too but I really want to give it to Pew Charitable Trust. Have to figure that out.
That's precisely why I leave for China tomorrow for a 26 day trek through the country where I'll be interviewing with 7 companies (confirmed) and another 5 (maybe/probable) portfolio reviews/office sit downs. Every senior in architecture should take a "networking vacation" before the start of their last semester.

Keith, I have tons of ideas too. Totally willing to share with you and others as I learn to app write if you are interested. I swtiched careers, not in architecture anymore, but I hang out here often enough that you can usually find me here.
this year, i resolve to...
