2. On a similar note, meet more people. The women me and my friends know at college are kind of boring. Last weekend we were with much more interesting women at my friends lakehouse. Need to find women like that at college

3. Maybe try a bit more in school. My grades were good enough, 3.5+ gpa, but I really put in basically no effort. If I actually try, I could definitely do better. My classes are more interesting, so should be easier to try.

4. Do more things. Last year, didn't do that much, just kinda had the same parties every weekend. Planning on joining the ski club, going camping with my friends, and we are even thinking about going skydiving.
I think I can make this year the best year yet.

Definitely go skydiving. I got certified back in 2004 and it was a great decision.

2,4 > 3,1.

Awesome list, @spwath! Best of luck in accomplishing your goals.

Honestly, I'm really surprised at how many doors opened for me based on who knew me (NOT who you know). Make those social connections!

You're a smart guy and if 3.5 comes easy I wouldn't sweat the 4.0 if it means you have more time to do social stuff and personal growth. Most future employers aren't going to care about GPA if you're already at 3.5. Unless that's really important to you. It's great you have goals. That will make a lot of great stuff just sorta happen.

I feel like I just wasted a lot of time doing nothing, time when I had nothing to do, but could have put in more work. But yeah, I am not too concerned about that, I just think I can do better, so might as well. Higher gpa never hurts.
