Careful Yeru, don't go acting all proud to be an American, ya might cause another thread to be locked.
Of course college isn't a pet project, it's the only project. After college I'm sure I won't have any time either for awhile because I'll be busy trying to impress an employer. I would say pet projects are on the back burner for awhile.
My pet project
Is keeping myself and my family balanced with life.

Wow... I don't think I have a pet project. I guess I really don't have a life!
When my cousin, Sharon died two years ago, she had been working on re-doing all of her mother's photo albums, putting them in an acid free environment. I promised her I would finish them for her. Her mother, my aunt, also had an enormous scrapbook, from our family's 1958 six-week trip to the New York convention. My aunt asked me to re-do that one too, because it is literally falling apart. So that is my project. The photo albums date from the late 1800's to a few years ago. I am up to the 1970's and about half way through the 1958 scrapbook. I want to finish it before she dies. She is 81.
I also have my own scrapbooking projects that I sometimes wonder if I will ever catch up on.
And we need to take the wallpaper off in the bathroom and paint it, if the man will ever come back and finish the tub enclosure. He isn't paid yet either.
The outside of the house needs to be painted too. So much to do.
I'm planning on taking over the woooorld!

My plans are to make a quilt with my mother. She is over 60 now and maybe this will be the last "big" project we will be able to do together. I remember her teaching me to sew when I was 13 years old. The first thing I did was make a quilt. That is long gone now as it wasn't important enough to me to take care of it. At 13 you don't think about memories being preserved for future generations, especially being raised as a witness. I want this one to be able to be passed on to my children and their children. I also want to set up the video camera while we sit and sew and just talk about her memories of her family, about us...about her life in general. I feel this is the greatest gift I can pass on to my children.
Lots of things, but the most important are...
1. moving to a new apartment next week, so packing up
2. continuing to run my own company i started, and be successful.
3. supporting my husband with getting his masters.
4. and most important, spending time with my 19 month old son, and making sure his life will be what he makes it, not what someone else dictates for him.
1. Running a Natural Horsemanship club I started myself earlier this year.
2. My kids.
3. Learning about perfecting my communication with my horse, so far I can ride him with only a piece of string round his neck out in the open field and a little while ago I took him to the beach and with no ropes attached got him to follow me, circle around me at the canter and other cool stuff.
4. My business.
5. My husband. lol
