30 things before 30
Last Sunday I turned 29. Normally age does not matter to me but for some reason turning 29 did. If I am honest I had thought it about it so much that I spent most of being 28 thinking I was 29, my issue being the dread of turning the big 3-0!
I am quite aware that I have spent a lot of my twenties being sensible, buying houses, working hard (working multiple jobs for most of it) and I don’t want to hit my thirties and think there was stuff I should of done in “my youth”. With this in mind I have set myself a task for the last year in my twenties, I have wrote a list of 30 things I want to do before I turn 30. Some of these things will really push me out of my comfort zone, some are just a bit of fun and some I hope will let me see life in a different way, so here goes, the list:
- Learn a new skill
- Spend New Year’s Ever abroad, I never really do much for new years so this year I would like to spend it abroad
- Complete a marathon
- Go up the Shard in London, its been something we have been meaning to do for years but never got round to it
- Get a permanent job, my job is currently temporary
- Get a new car
- Go to royal Ascot
- See live sport, at this stage I’m not sure what
- Carry out 30 random acts of kindness through the year, I will keep a record of what these are
- Volunteer/ do something for charity
- Wear a bikini in public; I haven’t done this in years!
- Invest in something
- Go to a festival
- Buy something expensive
- Do something that scares me
- Eat really expensive food
- Do something that scares me
- Get a tattoo; if I am honest I am not sure about this one… For a start I have no idea what I would get or where I would get it aside from my crazy fear of needles
- Visit a new city
- Write a biography/ experience diary
- Go to a super club… Looks like a trip to Ibiza is on the cards
- Write a letter to 40 year old me
- Do something on my own that I have never done before
- Find something I love doing…
- Sleep under the stars
- Go on a track day, one of those things I’ve always wanted to do but never got around to it
- Go on a far-flung trip, I’m thinking somewhere like Bali!
- Have a wax, I am not a fan of pain so I have always avoided waxing but people rave abut it so its time I gave it a try- This is on the list thanks to my friend Kirsty at Beauty at the Courtyard who suggested I added this to the list whilst I was having a wonderful facial and back massage last week
- Blog!
- Get engaged, this is totally out of my hands as I have always promised I wouldn’t be the one to ask… I have been waiting over 8 years so far.
So that’s it, time to crack on with the list and I am going to use this blog to share my experiences, here’s to a pretty exciting last year of my twenties.
On a side note, how cute is this biscuit from biscuiteers. I took a few days off work for my birthday and when I returned to work this was waiting for me, I was so excited because its so cute and had my name on it… Now time to eat it!
