• Get bow rehaired and violin fixed up.
• Finish more musical arrangement projects, compose one solid piece.

• Less napping.
• Start homework right when I have the chance after school.

• Eat in smaller portions.
• Drink more water, bring a water bottle to school every day.
• Turn off the computer when I really don’t need it.
