I actually made these soon after joining perlmonks, but I'm still working on them.
1. Learn to use OO Perl to my advantage.
2. Translate my old Perl4 utilities to a modern style.
3. Post some code.
4. Update: Spell better

The beginning of last year was really awful, but started getting better in the last half. Perlmonks gets some credit just by being such a open, warm, and damn useful site. This year is looking real bright.
