30 Things To Do Before I Turn 30

| 30 Things

birthday

In 3 years and 3 months I will be the dreaded 3-0. I understand that 30 is far from old, and definitely not even halfway to the end of my life. However, there are so many things that I want to do in my lifetime.  I know that if I don’t start being more proactive now I will die depressed, unfulfilled and full of regrets.  Dramatic? Probably. But that’s how I roll.

While writing this list I realized I have accomplished a good number of things.  Nothing big and impressive, but I feel that I have done my best to live my own life as uniquely as possible with the resources I have.  But there is still a long way to go.

Many of the things on this list are currently in the works.  Some are distant dreams.  All are very important to me.

  1. Travel to New Zealand
  2. Relocate to the West Coast
  3. Sky dive
  4. Learn to swing dance
  5. Dye my hair very blonde
  6. Learn to sew and make my own clothes
  7. Become self employed
  8. Eat an entirely raw diet for 30 days
  9. Do 15 consecutive pull-ups
  10. Perform as an aerialist for pay
  11. Touch my butt to my head
  12. Get rid of my car and travel via bike
  13. Go to Burning Man
  14. Write a (short) novel
  15. Spend a week doing nothing but yoga and meditation
  16. Read some Ayn Rand
  17. Get a puppy
  18. Eat at Horizons
  19. Redesign my portfolio site
  20. Throw a party
  21. Visit and volunteer at the Watkins Glen Farm Sanctuary
  22. Write and mail a postsecret
  23. Race for the Cure
  24. Save 5k in a real savings account
  25. Create a painting
  26. Spend a day in the park barefoot.. by myself
  27. Write an e-book
  28. Sprout
  29. Swim with dolphins
  30. Hold a handstand for 1 minute.

    Cool list! You’ve got me thinking about what to put on my own list…but as I’ll be turning 40 in less than two years, I’d better make it 40 Things To Do Before I Turn 40.

    This is a exceptional summary, I discovered your blog site checking aol for a similar topic and arrived to this. I couldnt find to much alternative information and facts on this post, so it was nice to find this one. I definitely will be back again to look at some other articles that you have another time.
