Day 440: random things

personal

some random things i’ve wanted to do for a while now:

  • work a bunch of different jobs for like 3 months each

    • i especially want to try working customer-facing retail jobs because i think it’d be both fun and a great way to practice patience and kindness even when you’re dealing with satan incarnate

  • do nothing but read books for 3 months

    • i wanna make a list of a bunch of classics (both fiction and non-fiction) across a wide range of domains and just enjoy + learn

  • build a livable van

    • traveling is cool but the “let’s gut this van and build everything from scratch” part of van life especially appeals to me
    • this guide is so beautiful: https://thevanual.com/

  • put together a maker commune

    • or maybe just a lil commune with friends
    • like grow our own food, support each other with our projects, that kind of stuff
    • community living is def my preferred way to create a home

  • train calisthenics intensely

    • working with a coach or gym on gymnastics style training for a while would be dope
    • i’ve been doing calisthenics strength training on my own for a while now but i’ve definitely gotten lazy with my programming and development

  • busk / perform music publicly

    • would be a fun and scary way to get better at guitar + singing + memorizing songs
