Update on New Year's Resolutions!

First off, I hope 2010 has been well for you all so far! I have a couple of updates for you.

1. Unfortunately, I did not make it to 1,000,000 steps by the end of the year like I wanted. Rather, I missed it by 35,697 steps. However, in my defense, I didn’t own my pedometer until March, meaning I missed 2 months of the year. Plus, I’m off to a good start so far with 98,270 steps for the month of January, and nearly 60,000 steps at the mid-way point in February! :)

2. With regard to my “saving change for a change” goal, I’ve amassed $7.40 in January. I think I’m going to make quarterly deposits in our savings account. The wife should be pleased. ;)

3. School has been quite hectic, but a blast!! I’m taking four classes—two of which are very hands-on and require significant lab time, the other two are text-heavy, yet interesting to learn about:

~ Photography I
~ Basic Video Production
~ Introduction to Radio
~ Cultural Geography

As I love Photography, if any of you would like to talk about the course, you can probably find me in the darkroom on the east-side of campus or around town shooting pictures!

Again, I hope you all are well! I'd be interested in knowing how the business management/economics courses UIS offer are if anyone out there wants to share...
