a list of things I want to accomplish by April 11th 2011

I have a pretty good life, and I really shouldn't complain as much as I tend to, but oh well, I have high standards. It has been determined that if I can make the following things happen over the next year of my life, I will be exponentially happier. There is scientific evidence to this effect. Also, they are just useful things that could help me be a better, more generally successful human.
