Progress report

Roughly a year ago, I made a list of 28 goals to complete before my 28th birthday. Well, with only a week to go until I turn a year older, I'm far from crossing all my goals off the list. I've decided to give myself the rest of the summer, as a sort of grace period, to try and fnish everything. Here is a recap of the goals that have been crossed off so far:

#4 Andrew Bird concert

Christine and I saw Andrew Bird's one man show in December. 

#7 Have a Party

I hosted an Academy Awards party in February.

#8 French Market

Talitha and I enjoyed crepes and checked out the vendors at the Chicago French Market.

#18 Run a race

Christine and I ran in the 2011 Shamrock Shuffle 8k on the only hot and sunny day in April.

#22 Organize sheet music

This is still a work in progress but I have somewhat of a system set up now.

#26 Go to the opera

On a trip to NYC, Elena and I went to the Metropolitan Opera to see La Fanciulla del West. On the same trip, I crossed off #25 to eat pizza under the Brooklyn Bridge at Grimaldi's Pizza.

#27 Go to a CSO concert

Christine and I went to the Chicago Symphony's free concert in Millenium Park in September.

And finally, I had my friend E over for dinner to complete goal #16 to cook a meal from scratch. I have no photographic proof of this one but it was delicious (right, E?).
