On November 26, 2008 I turned 28 years old. Starting that day, and for the next 2 years, I will be following the advice of a charming book called This Book Will Change Your Life. Given the random nature of the tasks, I have decided to blog about my experiences here and keep a public diary of sorts to document the next two years leading into my 30s. Perhaps, I can take some of my youth with me if I try hard enough to keep my mind young.

Not as sick any longer, so I'll be updating the missing days over the course of the day. Thank you to every who shared their concern. :)

**Update** 4/15/09:

I lost my book for a few days in the mess of Spring Cleaning, sorry guys! I'll be catching you up on the missed weekend. Thank you for being so patient.

**Update** 2/23/09:

This blog will be updated every day, however, feel free to follow any task on any given day! :)

I'm hoping this next year will help me answer you. I have been a poet, a painter, a novelist, an athlete, a USAF cadet, a senior, a freshman, a recruit, a dreamer, a lover, a fighter, a suicidal manic depressive and the happiest woman on earth. I have studied French, Japanese, Modern Greek, Spanish, Italian and Mandarin. I have dabbled in sculpting and carpentry. I've attempted to read Dante and Cervates in their native tongues and I have stumbled my way through Sartre and Kant. At all times, I am an avid reader and a student of the world. I have fantasized about moving to every continent and once, when I was in my tweens, I wanted to be a vampire just so I could live long enough to read every book in the world.
