As for how I did on my goals for May, I've drastically improved my Lead Technique (more accurate bending, not completely muting the string when doing pull-offs, better vibrato than before I posted my goals, studied more music theory and such), and I've gotten started with creating my own melodic phrases, although the phrasing isn't that good yet (anyone know a good resource for information on phrasing in music?). My speed hasn't really improved that much, though.
And my personal musical goals for June are as follows:
EDIT: Revised goals for June:
1: Improve Picking Hand technique.
2: Improve Posture.
3: Improve Legato Playing.
4: Learn more scales in general, including the Pentatonic ones.
5: Master Barre Chords.
6: Make progress on my song-writing.
