New Year's Resolutions for 2017

Too early for this? Nah, I don't think so.
  1. Finally buy my Google Pixel phone, in the really really blue. I've been using Matt's cracked iPhone 5 for way too long. The Pokemon Go app on this phone can't even load anymore.
  2. Pre-Hackbright goals: 
    • Finish Learn Python the Hard Way
    • Redo Codecademy's Python track as it's been way too long since I revisited it
    • Redo Codecademy's Javascript track
    • Complete the "More Python" series in LPTHW when released
    • Learn basics of Git
      • Complete Codecademy's Git track
      • Git tutorial from the PyLadies Meetup
    • Complete Codecademy's Command Line track Accomplished 1.22.2017!
  3. Vacations to conquer
    • Austin food pilgrimage
  4. Get something nice for display/use at my parents' new apartment
  5. See these DJs:
    • Gryffin again
    • See Illenium  Crush 2017--thanks boyfriend!
    • See Elephante, hopefully for free as I've missed his 3 free shows in 2016 birthday present! thanks boyfriend!
  6. Finish all the scarves I've had yarn for for the past few years
  7. Skype my parents at least twice a month
  8. Try 10 new recipes (see what I've experimented with so far!)
    • 5 Min Scallion Fat Noodle: http://ladyandpups.com/2014/09/29/5-min-scallion-fat-noodle/
    • Wahlie Kitchen's Sweet & Sour Chicken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXBN4jFMqDk
    • Banana Pancakes
    • Creole Salmon
    • Roasted Cauliflower (served with hummus!)
    • Shanghai Cai Fan
  9. Learn how to open a bottle of wine with a bottle opener. I've been relying on friends who can do this in 10s too much - well that was easy thanks to the Boof.
  10. Run at least once per week
  11. Run a 5k
  12. Watch a live comedy show
  13. Attend a hackathon
  14. Get a new hairstyle/haircut
  15. Establish a skincare routine
  16. Get a job post-Hackbright in 2017!
