101 things in 1001 days: 6-month report

I'm not doing too badly with my list, 6 months down the line. There have been major modifications to the list since I first came up with it, to reflect my own changing interests, but no modifications made recently. The idea is not to "cheat" but simply to come up with things that I want to do and that will be challenging and enable me to expand my horizons.

So far most of the stuff is still "in progress." The most notable achievement so far has been posting at least once every day to LJ, in spite of computer breakdowns and international trips. I'm pretty pleased with myself for managing that, given that my posting habits had become pretty sporadic over the past couple of years.

It amazes me that it's already been six months. I can't believe how quickly the time has gone by.

I have to look into some of the things I want to try. Six months down, roughly two years to go, and those things aren't going to do themselves, you know.

ASL 101 starts the first week of January and registration is this week (Wed. and Thur). There's a morning or an evening session-- both on Mondays. I could lend you my book and DVD if you like, it'll save you $95.

I'll have to see if they'll let me come to one class or the other, given how wacky my schedule is these days.

Thanks for the offer! I appreciate it. :)

They're pretty forgiving about that sort of thing and I've seen other people make up classes that way.

I don't suppose work would cut you some slack for those ten weeks?

I'll go check out registration tomorrow and ask. If they say I can do it that way (and that would be perfect for me, because then no matter what schedule I have, I'll always be able to make one of the two classes), then I will happily take you up on your offer to loan me your book & DVD. Are you sure you won't need them for your own classes?

I can always photocopy my section and borrow the DVD if I need it. I was pretty bad about not using the DVD actually.

If you're planning to do 101, 102 and 103 you may want your own copy, it's actually pretty useful and you use one book per level (i.e. all the 10-, 20- , 30- classes).
