5 Goals for the Future That Have Very Little to Do with "What I Want to Do With My Life"

(I took great pains over the capitalization in the title. Sorry if it is incorrect...I tried...)

1. Own a mini-apothecary shop, preferably in the form of a little stand on a street corner or with the apothecary equivalent of a food truck. I don't want to sell drug-like herbs, or to claim that I can heal people; I just want to create a place where families can go to mix up something that smells nice and maybe cure their cold.

2. Ace a test that I had to study really, really hard for.

3. Cultivate an organized, intentionally-created collection of objects that fall out of my normal interest range (e.g. my books don't count).

4. Make a serious attempt to reach nirvana/spiritual enlightenment. (For maybe, like, a week?)

5. Draw jellyfishes professionally in some capacity for a little while. 

 Speaking of which, here is one of my latest jellyfishes:

Best wishes,
