Slacker no more!

So I've slightly slacked on actually completing these 101 things so I'm determined NOT to slack. However, I just realized I haven't been QUITE the slacker since I have actually complete a few of these things but just haven't updated the list so here it goes!

101 Things in 1001 Days
January 1, 2010-October 28, 2012

17. Try 8 new restaurants (5/8)
Work makes this pretty easy considering just about EVERY place we've eaten for lunch has been new to my taste buds. But for now lets take Chan Dara-DELICIOUS curry, Urth-very organic and yummy!, Bay Cities-one of my favorite new delis! I'll post more soon!

21. Get a Shoe Tangle
So funny story here, Noah and his mom are in Ikea and he sends me a picture of a wooden shoe tangle that is awesome but like 50 bucks. A few weeks later I'm coming home really late and see this awesome shoe tangle just sitting there on the side of the road in front of our house....sooooo I take it. HA! And its practically brand new! Cut to a few weeks later from that and I find out our neighbor is subletting this month so its probably HIS. Oh what a world.

26. Get my Website off the Ground
I got my website not only OFF the ground but looking pretty spiffy if you ask me. Check it out at www.breemccool.com!! Very proud of myself, haha.

27. Visit Vanessa and/or Annie
This could still happen for Annie!!! Vanessa is coming home in a few weeks!

32. Go to 15 shows/concerts (0/15)
Noah got me a ticket for Matt Pond PA at the Troubadour for my bday ON my bday!!! They said happy birthday and dedicated a song to me, pretty sweet huh? No pictures but a signed ticket and a poster/tshirt :)

33. Put $20/month into a “me” account (0/32)
I'm actually putting away more than 20$ because I'm planning a trip to London in 2 years to coincide with the 2012 Olympics!

43. Get a Raise
I sorta got a raise, cause I got a different job....so....I think that qualifies but I'm putting this as on the go because I expect another one soon :)

45. Go to a music festival
This may not REALLY count but I did go to Warped Tour this year. You can check out photos on my website at www.breemccool.com!

46. Pay off credit card
I paid off my credit card!!!! DONE-ZO!!!! Hooray! Feels so good, thanks tax refund! Now just onto those student loans....

48. Go to Disneyland
I went to DISNEYLAND and I thought I wouldn't have pictures to prove it but I DO now because Sadie found my camera! Hooray!!!! I'll post those once I get my camera ;)

54. Attend the LA Philharmonic or Kronos Quartet Orchestra
I saw the Kronos Quartet Orchestra perform with my friend Jesse up near Santa Cruz a few years ago but it doesn't count. What DOES count is that I'm going to see the LA Philharmonic perform Beatles songs THIS Sunday and I couldn't be more excited. I hope the HW Bowl sounds great and that it isn't too chilly!

57. See all the Best Picture Nominees each given year (0/10)
I have already seen Avatar, An Education, District 9, Up, Up in the Air, Hurt Locker, and Inglorious Bastards. Its going to take A LOT to make me see Blindside, Serious Man and Precious, although I'm sure it'll happen sometime....

74. Keep a monthly budget and stick to it
I'd like to think I'm doing this but not dollar for dollar, I'm going to say its in progress because I'm not a crazy spending machine these days. I guess I never have been...because I really do enjoy getting something thats worn in and has the kind of history I can imagine.

87. Respond to http://www.plinky.com/ once a week (1/157)

92. Buy a bike and couch
So I didn't BUY a couch but my wonderful mother brought my brother's old futon down so now we have an extra bed AND a couch! Win, WIN! Recycle people, its way better than paying for new materials to be made!

Other Schtufffff....
