I've wanted to do this for a while and today I felt the urge to finally take action.
The thing is, writing something on my blog means I actually have to do it.
I've put my idea out there for the universe to see,
I've actually acknowledged it,
which means I sorta have to do something about it.
So here we go. In honor of my 20th birthday coming up, I've decided to make a list of 25 things I hope to accomplish by my 25th birthday.
Start Date: May 22, 2010.
End Date: May 22, 2015.
1. Buy my own car.
2. Kiss in the rain ( I don't think I've ever done this?)
3. Establish my career path.
4. Start saving for my first house.
5. Buy my own blog domain, where I have separate connecting blogs to write about my life (the confessions), wedding inspiration and/or home decor. *swoon*
6. Make a paycheck from said blog (holy smokes)
7. Send a note/card to 3 people I've lost touch with.
8. Go to Europe.
9. Plan and execute a girls weekend with my familia.
10. Intern/work for a wedding blogger or wedding magazine.
11. You can't plan these things, so I shouldn't put this on here. But when have I ever listened to that logic? I'd like to be engaged by 25. But I'll be okay if this one doesn't get crossed off.
12. Find somewhere to become a volunteer .
13. Run a half marathon.
14. Live by myself in a studio apartment and decorate/organize it effectively.
15. Buy a pair of uhm...designer shoes. gulp.
16. Buy makeup from Sephora. And don't feel guilty about it.
17. Make my own sushi.
18. Oh yeah. Graduate from College.
19. Plan and execute a ladies weekend with college friends.
20. Makeover a room of mine or a friends with a certain budget in a small time frame like all of my heros do on HGTV.
21. Invest in a good camera.
22. Fit into a size 4 pair of jeans. I'm usually a 6-8 in jeans, which I don't mind, but I've always wanted to know what it'd be like to be a 4-6.
23. Learn how to grill.
24. Find the perfect pair of jeans. And don't ruin them by letting the bottoms fray/tear.
25. Have one month where I wear no makeup.
Well there ya have it folks. Have y'all ever thought about making a list?
Hope everyone had a good weekend!

I love that you did this! Good for you! My husband did something similar on my honeymoon. I never knew until I found it on his nightstand one day when almost all of his goals were crossed off. He swears the list made it possible! You just may have inspired me...
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so fabulous! I definitely wanted to run a half marathon before I turn 25, but now I only have less than 6 months and way too much going on! Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteMarija- That is SO sweet that you're husband did that on your honeymoon. He sounds like a keeper. Things came to me surprisingly easy!
ReplyDeleteAmanda-thank you so much! I actually started training for a half marathon last year but moved states and got behind in my training in all the hustle and bustle so never ended up doing it. Hopefully I'll make it through this time :)
I love that you have this list! It definitely inspires me to make one of my own. Thank you so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou're going to love doing the half marathon! I just finished my second one this past weekend, and I was hooked after my first. :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck in your training and have fun!
