Hmm. I'd like, over the next two years to achieve a high enough level at TESOL to be able to get a job working teaching with the refugee council. I'm mulling over the merits of learning either Urdu or Punjabi.Not to any high level of competence but enough to get by on a basic converation, y'know, be able to introduce myself and understand someone else's introduction, offer simple directions etc. All depends on what time I have over the next year or so.
I would also like to finish a story I am working on but again that's one of the things that gets pushed to the bottom of the list if I have studying to do.
On a longer term basis I'd like to know more about England between the 9th and 11th centuries. Much of my knowledge has been superceded by recent archaealogical findings and the research done by some of the current crop of Historians. I'd like to find more time to read and see what current thinking is on a few issues.
I'd also like to be better with money so I can dig myself out of the financial hole i so merrily dug myself into :P
