Welp! Another year gone.
Yes, today is my birthday.
My 29th birthday to be exact.
It's so crazy to think that in 1 year (or 12 months or 52 weeks or 365 days) I'll be officially in my 30s.
So, in celebration of (or preparation for) October 9, 2013,
I have decided to compile my own version of the ever popular 30 by 30 list.

If you have been living under a rock and have no clue what a 30 by 30 list is, let me enlighten you.
It's super simple really, it's a bucket list of sorts, containing 30 things I want to do by the time I turn 30.
These 30 things can be as easy or difficult as the individual wants, but they need to be doable.

My thoughts on your list:
ReplyDelete5. I'm (finally) at 40% in my personal Brothers Karamzov (Les Miserables), and it feels like a miracle. ha.
7. I want to do this, actually. I was thinking about it last week.
13. That's so cool. DeAnna and co and I were going to start this "random acts of kindness" group, but it never went anywhere, and this would have been something we'd have done.
15. I'm planning on a marathon by the end of the year. ;) COME OVER! <3
18. I'll be writing if you want some accountability. It's 1666 words a day. ;)
24. Consider this my offer to babysit sometimes.
This is a great list. I'm super excited to watch you check stuff off the list. :)
Thanks! I'm actually super excited about this list! I was trying to make sure that I didn't get too overly ambitious in my goals. :)
