my life is an epic quest

[engineman312]

well, sort of... i'm working on it!!

a couple of days ago, i decided to embrace the "epic quest" out look of life, and inspired by the challenges that go around here, and our fearless leader and these articles: http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2012/02/23/a-newbies-guide-to-nerd-fitness/ http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/epic-quest/ i decided to start enjoying life a little more!!

i've always thought of making good, clear cut goals, but i finally decided to write them down and to really start working on them. there is no date that they have to be completed by, and i will be consistently striving to perfect myself.

Yes, i do have some similar goals as Steve. some of that is coincidence, and some is just me going and saying "yeah, that would definetly be cool to do."

Here is the link to my quest http://tinyurl.com/7ey2ylw It's also in my signature.
