Day Zero, Goals #52, 60, 83, 86, 87, & 93

GOAL RECAP:

#52 - Turn $100 into $1000 and blog about how I did it.



How the hell did I do it? What I thought would be one of the toughest goals on my list, was actually one of the easiest. Why? Because I am really, really good at Chemistry. I actually turned about $25 (cost of some whiteboard markers and 20 printed work booklets) into $1000. The boyfriend @Andrewnium & I had a review session for introductory Organic Chemistry right before final exams in April. We charged 20 students $50 each for one Saturday. It took about 5hrs, but we covered the whole course, and at the end of the day, it was an extra $1K into our pockets.

#60 - Get a bike



I got a bike -- for free no less, thanks to a generous twitter user trying to get rid of some old stuff! That's me riding it (second row, right -- the one with the obnoxiously long hair) for #CriticalLass. Yeah, I wasn't wearing a helmet that day.

#83 - Finally read Bram Stroker's Dracula



It was good! I find classics generally live up to the hype =)

#86 - Visit the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City



I took in a lot of history on my annual vacation this year. Quebec, Montreal and Ottawa had so much to offer! (I took the picture!)

#87 - Go to the Montreal Biodome



They had Capybaras. It was awesome. (I took this picture too!)

#93 - Visit the Parliament Building in my nation's capital, Ottawa!



It was like being in a postcard. (This is also my photographic work.. I think I got better as the trip went on!)

So that was a lot of my list completed over the past 2 months. I'm looking forward to getting more done, and thinking of the final 6 goals to complete my 101 list. I will do my best to blog more!
