Year in Superlatives 2011

Those of you who know me, know that I love spreadsheets, hyperbole and superlatives. They are the best...ever. Most of you probably don't know that I am a very horrible at journal keeping. I would actually hope that you all would think that I am pretty bad at writing in my journal. For some reason I have always simultaneously respected and been kinda creeped out by people who were my age who kept a daily journal. I mean what could have possibly been so important that happened in your life that it validated a journal entry. Don't get me wrong, if you are one of those people, then I have nothing but total respect for you. I don't mean to belittle it at all (even though it ostensibly might seem that I am doing just that). If you were consistent in writing in a journal then probably you would really develop your writing skills. That definitely is something to be desired.


Anyway I have never kept a journal, except on my mission, and I decided that I wanted to keep a journal this year. Instead of setting myself up for failure in trying to do a daily journal, I came up with an idea that just might suit me. I have decided to take my love of superlatives and spreadsheets and create a "superlatives list 2011" of my life. I will keep an updated list of the best and worst things that I experience throughout the year. I have decided to make this a public list if you are interested there will be a link on our blog for the remainder of 2011, to give you access to my journal writing experiment.


Enjoy
