Short-term or beginning immediately:

1)Inspired by tng (thank you!), I will go to bed by 11pm at least 2 nights a week.

2) I will score >2200 on the SATs. This is very short-term and freaking me the fuck out.

3) I will put insecurity behind me. I can't just decide to put depression behind me, but I will not surrender to it and waste my time which is, at this point in my life, far too valuable for teen angst.

4) I will break and stay in the A-range (90%+) in my AP US History course by the end of this month.

5) I'll get back in the gym (for fuck's sake) without guilt or pressure so that I can maintain a reasonable and balanced routine again. I will be consistent until June.

6) No weed until the beginning of March.

Long-term:

7) I will learn to create an electronically-recorded song or two in the style of SBTRKT or Thom Yorke, depending on where it takes me. Then I will put an EP up on Bandcamp.[long-term]

8) I will get into a college that will make me feel proud of myself. I will pursue the application process with no regard for unnecessary pressures from parents, friends, or teachers. I will be accepted into the best college that I can, and by best I mean the best for me.
