Why do I want to do this?

It costs me nothing but a bit of time and even strengthens my English vocabulary :)

How will I know when I've done this?

I signed up to the site, so I will be able to see when I have reached 100,000 grains.

Why do I want to do this?

I have made 16 Kiva loans so far and currently have about $130 outstanding credit there in 7 loans. Making 20 loans in 2.75 years won't cost me a lot, but it will keep me in the habit of reloaning the credit when I get it back.

How will I know when I've done this?

My Kiva portfolio will be at 36 loans.

I'll record this here when done.

Why do I want to do this?

I've been living here for half a year and the alls are still pretty much bare. Not very welcoming!

How will I know when I've done this?

There's be at least 6 pieces of decoration (calendars, framed photos, etc.) hanging on the walls.

I'll record this here, with pictures when done.
What's this about?

http://stackoverflow.com/ is a programming questions & answer site with a point-based 'ranking' system. I currently have 217 points there.

Why do I want to do this?

It will help me with my programming skills to ask questions and answer other people's questions.

How will I know when I've done this?

I will have 2,000 or more points on the main stackoverflow page.

I'll record this witha post here when I am done.
What's this about? Why do I want to do this?

I used to be around 60-62 kilograms most of my late teenage and adult life (I am 1.68m tall), until I gained weight in 2008. I am not quite sure how much I weight right now, but it's probably around 80 kilograms. I want to get back to where I was most comfortable, and that will start with my first goal of 70 kilograms.

How will I know when I've done this?

For two weeks in a row, my scale will be showing less than 70 kilograms. That will put me at a BMI of 24.8

I'll record this in this journal
What's this about?

Squats and bench presses are two very fundamental parts of free weight lifting and two I particularly enjoy. According to an article I found, squatting 100% of body weight is considered 'good' for a woman, as is 40% for bench pressing.

Why do I want to do this?

I like free weight training, but it's not something I have set goals for before. I think it would really help me stay on track with it and also very much help with the weight loss goals.

How will I know when I've done this?

I will have managed 3 squats with 80% of my body weight at that time and 3 bench presses with 40% of my body weight at that time.

I'll record this in [community profile] exercise_every_day and on my computer as I train for it and with a post here when I have accomplished this.
Why do I want to do this?

Because I want to get into the habit of donating. I figured 20€ is a good amount that I will be able to keep donating even if I should lose my job or something.

How will I know when I've done this?

I will have made 33 donations of at least 20€ to 33 different causes/charities.

I'll record this

I'll update this post every donation.

What's this about?

Keeping a list of which books by which authors I have read over the course of the 1001 days.

Why do I want to do this?

At the end of a year, people often post lists about what books they have read. By that time, I have often forgotten what I have read. Keeping a list of book titles, authors, and when I finished the book will help me chronicling my reading.

How will I know when I've done this?

This runs the entire 1001 days.

I'll record this

In this post.
