 I accomplished nearly all of them in '08. Yep, I'm that resolute in finishing what I start. It shouldn't be hard to figure out which goal I had to carry over from last year ROFL. So here's to 2009...

= Pursue happiness through an active lifestyle and live adventurously
1) Hike at least 100 miles of the John Muir Trail and/or Pacific Crest Trail.

2) Dedicate winter to making the purest, edge-only turns on my snowboard. Consistently leave pencil thin trenches on the groomers.

3) Hike outside of California.

4) Lose 5 lbs of fat and gain 5lbs of muscle.


= Nurture creative passions
5) Take 2 breathtaking pictures that no one can believe I took in pursuit of 1) and 2).

6) Learn story telling through film and editing with Final Cut Pro. Use 1), 2) and 3) in my stories.


= Self improvement
7) More family time. I may go crazy with this one.

8) Food/drinks/fun times with friends at least twice a month.

9) Find a significant other. I get enough lectures from family elders as is and will probably get more in pursuit of 7).

= Increase hacker cred
10) Write a Ruby gem that parses weather data from a ReST service and open source it on GitHub.

11) Become proficient with Prototype, Scriptaculous, and RJS.

12) Deploy a Rails site that does something.

13) Learn the basics of Objective-C, Cocoa and RubyCocoa.

14) Write a reference webapp that uses BlazeDS, Java, and Flex.
