New Years GOTE

I'm not a big fan of New Years Resolutions. I feel like if you want something changed, you shouldn't wait till the New Year. Although, I do see how it's nice to think you're getting a fresh start. Anyway, Sarah and I were once talking about our GOTE's (an acting exercise) and I realized it would be interesting to make a GOTE for my life, instead of the character I'm playing.

So thus this is my GOTE for the New Year: (not exhaustive)

GOALS -
1. Make a show this year, (whether it be one act, mainstage, or lab show) Along with that I'd like to improve my acting...
2. Hit that Phantom of the Opera E during a voice lesson
3. Spend more time thinking about my faith and discussing it with others
4. Get an A in Chemistry
5. Get out more
6. Meet with A.T. Still people to talk about medical school
OBSTACLES -
1. I don't have a lot of experience with acting. I'm practically brand new.
2. I'm only at the High High C- (and it's very weak) plus I have D to jump over. My voice gets tired after an hour.
3. THE DEVIL. Just kidding, probably the fact that it's taboo to talk about faith or at least uninteresting to a lot of people, and I'm easily distracted.
4. I've always done poorly in Science (ACT 23 on Science section) and I've never taken Chemistry. I know K is potassium?
5. My own fault for just being a dorm room homebody.
6. I'm lazy and don't follow up with emails.
TACTICS
1. Acting I helped me strip a lot of my bad habits. Some of them return when I'm nervous (i.e. Intro to Theatre final) However, now that I'm practically blank I can start improving on the techniques learned. (such as employing GOTE and an inner monologue)
2. I'll hit that E by doing diaphragm exercises, not drinking a lot of milk or soda, practicing frequently, and the like.
3. I'm not sure about this one... any ideas?
4. STUDY a lot and DO NOT get behind on the homework and studying. Go to AXE tutoring sessions.
5. Just try to make plans with people I suppose? I'm really lazy about that.
6. Follow up on emails...
EXPECTATIONS
1. I probably won't make a mainstage, I'm just not there with my abilities. However, a lab show would be ideal and the one acts would be a great opportunity to grow as an actress.
2. I might be able to make it by the end of the year... fingers crossed!
3. To be honest, I'll probably do very little with this one. Which is sad because it's the most important to me. I just feel blocked, does that make sense?
4. I'll get an A in Chemistry, it's just going to suck earning it.
5. I'll definitely do this one. We have a house, no excuse to not get out of the dorm.
6. I'll meet with an ATS student and talk about whether or not medicine is something I'd like to pursue.
