There's a very well-known country song out there about a country artist who reflected on the past 30 years of his life, and creates goals and aspirations for himself to reach within the next 30 years. The song I am referring to, if you have not guessed it yet, is My Next Thirty Years by Tim McGraw. Like Tim McGraw, I will also be more or less creating goals and aspirations for the next 2 years of my life. 30 years into the future is a bit too far to predict, so why not make some goals for my last year(s) of my college career?
1. Secure at least one E-Board Position in Pi Kappa Phi
2. Secure at least one E-Board Position in Lambda Alpha Epsilon
3. Absolutely stop procrastinating
4. Cut the fast-food down to no more than once or twice per week
5. Participate a lot more in most, if not all of my classes
6. Finish my SSD courses (you military folk will recognize these wonderful three syllables)
7. Participate in American Ninja Warrior at least once
8. End a semester and/or year with Straight A's
9. Land a stable internship in an area I would actually like to work in
10. Not spend so much time on my phone, and spend more time reading
11. Become casted in at least two more shows here at WIU (At least 1 Mainstage Production)
12. Grow closer with each and every single one of my brothers
13. Learn about my family's history
14. Wear a (close to) authentic Captain America costume for Halloween
15. Spend more time with my family
16. Own my very own car
17. Land a decent job in Macomb while attending school here

19. Become a Diamond Coach for Beachbody
20. Grow more confident in my vocals and dancing
21. Secure a position on SGA (Student Government Association)
21 goals, since I just turned 21. But hey, hopefully I'll be here next year making 22 more as life goes on.
