Summer resolutions

Every summer, for the past few summers, I get the urge to break out my dad's guitar and learn a new song, some new chords or alternative fingerings.  I accomplished a lot the first time around but so far I can play five chords and three different songs: Blackbird , Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) and Box of Rain.  (I can also play the theme song for SuperMario but that's more of a novelty piece, yeah?).  This summer I resolve, among other things,  to learn one new song. 

My resolutions for the summer (starting on Memorial Day, ending on Labor Day):
1.  Learn one new song on the guitar
2.  Play in the community band (rehearsal/concert once a week) and/or practise violin at least once a week
3.  Read at least four books-- one of which must be non-fiction
4.  Go biking at least once a week (weather permitting)
5.  Be able to do 20 push-ups in...a minute?

I might had to this list between now and Monday.
