#35. Get Laser

Status: Complete

This definitely now feels like oversharing. But the rules are the rules. So yes, I got laser. It was good. It wasn't perfect. On a banker's salary - yes. Regular people - probably no.

That will be all.

#28. Me, myself and I

Status: Complete

As if this whole blogging thing wasn't narcissistic enough, I went and took photos of myself. In the end, 12 out of 33 are actual hold-out-an-arm or hit-the-timer-button shots and the rest are photos other people happen to have taken in a specific month, but I'm satisfied it's complete.

Why? I'm not entirely sure. It's a kind of time-capsule feeling I guess. Certainly not to assess the quality of my skincare products or anything quite so specific. More just "What did I look like when I was 26?"

I've been a slightly coy online presence thus far, so I'm not sure where these pics go. Maybe I get over it and load them up on flickr. Or maybe not.

#71(new). Gallery visits

Status: Complete (with a tine bit of wiggling)

I tracked this goal in this post. In all, I made 42 visits to galleries/monuments and went to 8 other "cultural events" that I've decided can kind of count...

An installation at the MoMA

This was a fabulous goal - it had all the right ingredients. It was something to chip away at, fun, cheap and satisfying. Well-worded too I think - I didn't say they had to be unique galleries (I got as much out of my 4th visit to the MoMA as my 1st); I didn't say I had to stay a certain amount of time, or memorise any art. Just drop in. Which is just the sort of thing I might not otherwise bother to do. The list provided the perfect amount of extra motivation.

Definitely a candidate for re-inclusion in The List 2.0.

#2 (new). Tricky letters

Status: Incomplete (17/26)

I ended up getting through 17 of the 26 destinations for the A-Z goal. I've decided that vowels are hard - as are the letters after T. I'm surprised I didn't get H, O, and T - they don't seem so hard... I think if I'd had the full 1001 days on this one I might have made it - it was a half-time addition. It's definitely a candidate for The List 2.0.
