When I moved out to St.
Louis with a friend her and I sat down one night and decided to write our life
list. The things that we want to
accomplish in this life. I moved around
since I wrote mine along side her and I thought I had lost it. One day I was going through my filing system
and I found my life list. Here it is in
the same form that I had written it in.
I find it very interesting some of the things I wrote on there. Such as Run in a marathon. I hated running when I was 22 why in the heck
did I even write that. I am beginning to
think its because my metacognition knows me better than I know myself. Same goes with my “adopt a child” I don’t know maybe one day I will but for now
I have that checked off because I played the reverse role of adopting a child
instead of adopting I became a child’s birth mom! I will be rewriting some of these because my
goals have changed. I will go ahead and
strike out the ones I have already accomplished. Here I go!

a desire for such as “get an acting coach” I don’t want to really act not
anymore anyways.
