Lol if they were not measurable goals it would be impossible to know if you achevied them or not. I'd of made my goal to correctly predict both the momentum and position of a particle.


Good one!

I later figured out that by measurable they meant objective, rather than subjective. But this distinction still seems nonsensical to me.

I wasn't speaking to anyone in particular; if it helps to see your accomplishments out in the open, especially as a list is far more tangible, and if you're feeling down due to something, it'd be a good idea to do such. I know psychos and psychics have asked me to do it for them, and I did, but I didn't feel anything, and I let them know that.

It's just not something for me, that's all, and if it helps you, cool (which it did, and you need not feel anything negative from what I said, as it was directed at myself).


Ah I didn't take anything negative from what you said, I was in fact being very literal with my statement (meaning; hmm... i suppose you're right, in my case it did work in the way you described). I do tend to be too literal.

Third place in giant slalom at __ _____, ____.
(sorry, that would make it possible for people to find me on WP).

Achieved status of professional musician, by getting a weekly paying gig.

Those were within the past 5 years. Before that, it's all a fog.

I was the first person in the history of my school to fail Religious Education (I forgot to put my name on the exam paper)

There may be other accomplishments to my name, but this is my favourite.



i have heard of someone who failed Religious Education at the school i went to but not because of that reason. he wrote his name but the wrong answers to the questions(this was back in year 7) quite an accomplishment.


my accomplishments
i spend 4 years doing a part time Advanced Diploma of Legal Practice. have finished it and the graduation ceremony is on 20th May. Yay! thought i would never finish the damn course! sooooooo long it took.
finishing VCE with a decent score. (it was in the 60's which is not bad)
getting my first job. (working in a law firm as a junior clerk , still have the job 5 years later, although i am not a junior anymore (they gave me something else to do, although i get put back onto junior duties sometimes)
making a yukata (i had help though, i went to a workshop at an anime con, don't know if this counts)
