<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I have a few goals, firstly I want to bulk up 5 more kilograms before the end of 2004. Secondly I want to be able to hit 20K at least once a week (since running is all I have now that I'm done with hockey and kickboxing). Other than that, I also want to get some writing done, and possibly published, I have some good connections through my father; I very much enjoy writing of all types (particularilly articles about things I am passionate about, philosophy, as well as anything to do with my studies in the medical, literary, and biological world). Even casual writing, that's possibly the only reason why I go online at all. Either way, I would love to get published so that I could get some additional income. I also want to continue coaching for track and field, it's fun doing this sort of stuff, because not only do I get to teach, but I also get a good workout at the same time, and compete.

This spring, I really want to get my yard together, my lawn is fairly bare right now aside from the garden we have in the back and the front, I want to get some trees planted, we had a few cherry trees whenever we bought the house but those got destroyed last winter. This year I hope to be more careful about it, and get some steel mesh and netting to protect them. I'd also like to get some spruce and quite a few more bushes to make things look nice.

The Summer and autumn, I also hope to do all the camping and walking this coming year as I planned to do this past year. It really wasn't until the middle of September or so (maybe a bit in August) that I really began to get into any of that sort of stuff. There is little more fun that one can have in life than just taking off with a few hundred bucks, and walking for days, or maybe even a few weeks, camping where you have to, eating at fancy restaraunts out in the countryside and by beach resorts, and staying at beach resort hotels and such once in a while where there is vacancy; didn't get to do much of that this summer, but this fall we did it a few times, and I hope to do it a lot this coming summer.</div>
