Try Something New

For those of you who don't know this about me, I love TED Talks. I am even more addicted to TED Talks here in the Philippines than I was in the US. I don't know how that is possible, but it is. I watched this talk which inspired my personal blog challenge for 2012.  I will try something new for 30 days and record each month's new endeavor. In theory I will do this for the duration of 2012. I am eager to hear and willing to try challenges suggested by others. If you have a suggestion please let me know in the comments section.

First Month* - Daily Bible Reading Horner's-Bible-Reading-System 

Second Month* - I enjoy chat rooms, but this will be a chat free month.

Third Month* - I developed an unhealthy soda habit in the Philippines, so this month will be soda free.

Fourth Month - Professional development month. This month I will learn something new about librarianship every day.  

Fifth Month - Parlez vous Francais? I enjoy learning Tagalog, but desperately miss speaking French, so here is to 30 days of French lessons.


Sixth Month -

Seventh Month

Eighth Month

Ninth Month

Tenth Month

Eleventh Month -  NaNoWriMo 2012

Twelfth Month

* Successful 30 day challenges

So... This endeavor was pretty much a failure, but I succeeded in giving up soda and chat rooms for the months specified.  I can envision a soda-free life. I haven't entered a chat room in months, but I expect that will change in 2013.
