2005 -RECAP OF GOALS

Before I state my goals for 2006 I think I should recap my goals for 2005 and see how I managed to go.

My goals for 2005 include:

*** Seeing as Travel was priority for me in 2004, I would have to say that travel will still be on my list this year under minor. I would like to travel to Turkey, Greece and Brazil this year but if that doesn’t happen then I’m hoping New Zealand or Tasmania.

Looking back now I managed to exceed this goal. I was able to travel to Turkey, Greece as well as New York and San Fran.

*** Hoping to go to Melbourne this year. My last Melbourne trip was in Jan 2000. I feel that I am way overdue

I was luckly to achieve this goal as well. I went to Melb in June 2005 with my cousin Cigdosh and friend Tracey.

*** Road Trips – I want to go on a road trip once a month somewhere around Sydney and do some Exploring. I feel that I haven’t seen much of Sydney

This goal can be argued. I didn't have the chance to explore as much as I wanted so I will reset this goal for 2006.

*** New things – I want to try new things at least once a month. This may be going to places I rarely wouldn’t go to or eating something I normally don’t.

I think this goal was semi achieved. I managed to try new things throughout the year but not on a monthly basis

*** I want to learn how to speak Greek. Also continue my Spanish classes late this year. My aim is to speak 5 languages fluently by the age of 28

I managed to do two semesters of Greek last year. I studied Greek 1A and 1B. Unfortunately I didn't get time to study Spanish. To be on a realistic note to be fluent in one language you need at least 4 or 5 levels. Hence the age of 28 is misleading.

*** Learn to Surf, spend more time at the beach this summer

I managed to do one surfing lesson and hope to continue this in the future.

*** Career wise – sort out where I am heading

I think 2005 kicked off my career and where I want to head but in some ways made me lose site of what I actually wanted.

*** Gym – Work out at the gym more to accomplish what I want

I didn't follow this as much as I could of.

*** Romance – possibly meet someone this year

This never happened!
