Right now I only have a long term goal and that is learn another language. I am interested in Hebrew and I would like to be able to read the bible in it's original language. Even though I'm not religious, I still think it would be kinda cool to be able to do that. I don't know how I'm going to reach this goal though, I'm not good at teaching myself things - my learning has to be structured, but I don't think there is anywhere near me where I could go and do it in a course.

What are yours?

My short-term goal is to decide what I want to eat this morning.

My long-term goal is to live as long as possible, and watch the world change around me.

Hey, you asked...
