I've been riding about that long, and I can:

ride for about a mile without a UPD, if the pavement is good
straighten the seat after I UPD
go 5 miles in about an hour and a half (with multiple dismounts and some walking)
turn left
turn right
check the tire pressure before I ride
go up gradual inclines
go down slightly steeper inclines
free-mount about 30% of the time on a 24" unicycle
ride a 36" wheel (once I get on with the help of a telephone pole)
carry the unicycle up a flight of stairs
carry the unicycle down a flight of stairs
keep the nuts properly torqued to prevent undesirable clicks, wobbles and howling noises
lock the unicycle properly when I go shopping or to a movie
take the metro with my unicycle without being challenged
have intelligent conversations with people who ask about unicycling

My goals for next year are to:

improve my free-mount
learn to free-mount the 36" wheel
learn to use the brake on my 36" wheel
learn to ride backwards on my 20" and 24" wheels
ride over 10 miles with one mount
