life's must-do list


My last post got me thinking about all the things that I want to accomplish in life. When I was in college, I wrote down a list everything I wanted to do before I die. I'm proud to say that I ticked off plenty of them—moving to NYC, falling in love, backpacking in Egypt by myself, making a living as a writer—but there are others that I have yet to tackle. Of course, as I've matured, my goals in life have shifted, too. So it's about time that I updated my list. Here goes; I'll be updating as I think of more things...

1. Get married (to someone I love!) 2. Be an amazing mom to awesome kids 3. Buy a house/apartment 4. Learn how to surf. For real. 5. Spend some time in Europe (especially Greece, Spain, and France) 6. Travel in Vietnam 7. Be freelance/be my own boss 8. Own a dog 9. Give up diet soda for good 10. Work at a nonprofit 11. Write a book with my name on it. 12. Run a full marathon 13. Hike the Grand Canyon 14. Grow a garden 15. Take a carpentry class 16. Learn how to knit 17. Have a concise, uncluttered closet 18. See the penguins in Capetown
