Spring Break Goals

• Do significant work on my 35-page seminar paper on Howell Raines, the executive editor of The New York Times during the Jayson Blair scandal. Especially enough to do an hour presentation on it next Tuesday.
• Do significant work on what will by the end of the semester be roughly 50 pages of creative writing.
• Send a get well card to my uncle who broke his pelvis.
• Do not kill any of my siblings. Even the ones who deserve it.
• Do not kill my parents. Try not to want to kill my parents.
  
• Catch up with a few friends who I have not spoken to in a while.
• Read two full books for class.
• Breathe.
• Fill my sleep deficit.
• Be a little bit touristy in New York City. (A museum? Or two?)
• Go to whatever health-care professionals I can make appointments with before I graduate and am kicked off my father's health insurance.

That seems like enough things for a week. Minus a day. Right?
