New Year's bingo for 2019

[luzula]

Oops, I forgot to post this, though I finalized the goals around the new year. If you're new: the idea here is not that I have to do all of these things! It's a five by five bingo square, though I'm too lazy to actually put them in a square here. I really like this approach to New Year's goals--if I fail to do things, it's no big deal, and I like the process of thinking through what I want to do in the coming year.

Unfinished goals from last year that I aim to do this year:

• Go running 50 times. (Just...keep up with the running, basically.)
• Try out Marcq St Hilaire's method of determining one's position with a sextant. (This is such a specific geeky goal, but it's actually also related to my teaching. I'd have to go to one of the outer islands in the archipelago here, or do it when I'm out sailing with my parents, so I have a clear sea horizon.)
• Perform with my sister or record songs with her.
• Take a dance course and/or go dancing twice. (I actually love dancing and don't do it enough.)

Finished goals from last year that I am aiming for again:

• Make a new friend. (I don't expect this to happen every year but I like it as a goal.)
• Go swimming in 20 new lakes/places by the sea. (I always enjoy this goal.)
• Go to one of the Swedish national parks I haven't been to. (I guess eventually I will run out of parks, but no danger of that yet.)
• Do something which sounds interesting but is out of my comfort zone or that I have never done before.
• Sleep outdoors (well, in a tent/hammock) 20 nights.
• Go tree climbing eight times.

Goals from last year that I am developing/changing:

• Post 2h of podfic. (Was: Post 3h of podfic, but I had a long WIP last year. I'm scaling down the ambition, but I do want to keep doing some podficcing.)
• Read at least 25 unread books from my book case (My reading goal for this year. Was: Half the books I read should be non-fiction.)
• Write three fanfics. (Was: Participate in a new fic exchange.)
• Have at least 100 species in my wood-living fungi herbarium (fungarium?) and/or 350 moss species in my moss herbarium (Was: to have 150 species in my moss herbarium, and another goal to learn more about wood-living fungi.)

New goals:

• Have a party when I turn 40.
• Learn to stand from a sitting position with my legs crossed, without using my hands or knees. (I can already stand up from a sitting position on the floor without using hands or knees, but I do it in a different way. My sister can do it from crossed legs, which spurred me to also want to learn it.)
• Build a tree platform from pallets and put it in a tree, and then sleep on it.
• Learn GIS. (That is, geographical information systems. This is for forest inventory purposes.)
• Be part of an Extinction Rebellion action.
• Improve my sleep habits. (It's not that they're terribly bad, but they could be improved.)
• Not be on the union board anymore. (Because I want to go back to environmental org board again...but I don't want to leave the union board before we find someone to replace me. It's not that I don't like the union board! More that I served my two years of office and want to prioritize my other org again, though I'll keep being active in the union.)
• Go on a trip to either Öland, the mountains or western Norway (and geek out about nature).
• Quarrel less with my mom. (We'll see how this one goes.)
• Lose 2 kg of weight. (I'm not overweight, I just want to carry less when I'm running/hiking.)
• Develop my workout and exercise routine. (I'm pretty happy with it, but it could probably use more variation, and I want to think about if there's anything important I'm missing.)
