Here are the things I wanted to accomplish:
- Start this blog! It's gone very well so far. As of this posting, I've had 150 page views. I hope to keep up the momentum.
- CLEPs: I've taken two (English Composition and English Modular). I did well on the first, and I haven't found out about the other one yet.
- Maintain my Spanish: I found a cool website called DuoLingo (more on that later) and I've been able to work at it sporadically.
- Organize a literature class: It hasn't started yet, but I'm very excited.
- Enroll in a personal finance class: check.
- Work on driving: Erm, not so much. In my defense, our car broke down and it took us a while to get a new one. I'm still behind on that. I don't like it, and should this blog ever mysteriously go silent, it'll probably be because I joined the Amish.
- Creative Writing: Not much progress here either.
I also went to the Training Minds Ministry's For Action Conference. It was an incredibly cool experience, and merits its own post.
Looking ahead:
- I'm going to take classes in sewing and quilting at JoAnn's. Those are two skills I want to develop and haven't had the time to.
- My literature class will have it's first meeting. I'm excited and a little nervous, so wish me luck.
- I'll take my next two CLEPs in US History and Biology.
- I'll try out the Khan Academy, and hopefully be able to take the College Algebra CLEP.
- I'll enroll in Straighter Line and get started with my actual courses. SQUEE!
- I want to research the mysterious alchemy of blog promotion, and work on that.
- Keep driving. Or, start mapping out the best bike routes to the grocery store and the library.
- Creative Writing: I can dream.
Thanks to everyone who has joined me on the first month of my journey!
