Here are 25 goals I would like to accomplish while I am 25 years old.
1. Cook one great meal a week (I tried to change this to "plan more meals" but Josh wouldn't let me. ha!)
2. Write one letter a week.
3. Take a class.
4. Run a 5k in under 30 minutes without feeling like I want to die.
5. Go to a great concert (Coldplay, NKOTB and BSB, Civil Wars again)
6. Play my violin in a recital
7. Raise all of our financial support for living overseas.
8. Go to Hogwarts (aka Universal Studios. But in my mind, it's really Hogwarts)
9. Write a guest post on another blog.
10. Go to a blogging conference. (Preferably Blogher, I think)
11. Find a mentor.
12. Memorize more Scripture.
13. Learn as much of the local language of where we are going to live as possible.
14. Enjoy more meals with friends and family- in our home and theirs.
15. Exercise at least twice a week. (That may not seem like much to you, but it would be more than I'm doing now!)
16. Practice my violin at least 3 times a week.
17. Read a book on marriage (I'm open to suggestions!)
18. Read three classic novels.
19. Take vitamins every day
20. Floss
21. Have a booth in a craft show with friends.
22. Play my violin during worship at our church.
23. Simplify. Get rid of excess. (Excess clothes... excess books.. excess belongings)
24. Plant a little garden that has flowers, herbs, and vegetables.
25. Be more organized (less forgetful and lose things less) and more graceful (less clumsy).
Love the idea of making a list! As per #12: My church is doing a memorize scripture challenge this year. Every year there is a church wide challenge (last years was to read a Proverb a day). Our first scripture to memorize is Matthew 6:19-34.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I don't mind helping out on this list by receiving letters (# 2) or eating one of these great meals (#1) and going to see the Civil Wars again in April? Eh? :D

ReplyDelete#5-If you go to NKOTBSB...I just...oh I don't even know what I would do...*sigh*
ReplyDelete#9-You can write a guest post on mine if you ever want to but I am sure you mean one with different readers. :)
#15-Do Jillian Michaels.
#18-I highly recommend Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice and Catcher in the Rye.
Ok, c'est tout!
