Keep a good GPA my spring semester, get a job either spring semester or over the summer, and get into auburn this year. I'd like to start working out too, but i doubt it'll happen.

Not flunk out of school Very Happy

Earn my pilots license (might have to wait until summer, sadly, due to my plane being at home instead of school)
Earn my CFI to fly the Pitts down at ERAU's Sport Aviation Club
Learn aerobatics, go to more airshows, learn all I can to later in life become a stunt pilot
Do well on the Jr Mens Pro Tour while making as many events as I can
Come home every chance I can get this semester to see the family
Lose a little weight weight, gain muscle, look like Rusty Laughing

Try to sell my car and buy a truck or nice SUV over the summer

I'm sure a few more can be added to the list but those are the ones I am really going for.

1. Try to stay organized and on top of schoolwork, last term has motivated me to really apply myself.
2. Score above 165 on the LSAT
3. Apply to lawschools and hopefully get into a top 10 program, IE: Cal.
4. Try to not spend so much time analyzing the past, and trying to figure out irrationality.
5. Not get so caught up in my professional aspirations that I forget about appreciating the present.
6. Start running again, get back down to a steady 175lbs or so (I'm hoping I can accomplish this because I only weigh 185 right now.)
7. No babbys.
