In honour and recognition of turning 29 recently, I've created a list of 30 things I would like to do before I turn 30 this December. Everything I chose is something I’ve either never done before, or is something I haven’t done as a child and so have no recollection of doing it!I wanted the list to be achievable, but not something that I could complete in a week.
I decided to add the list here mostly so that I can hold myself accountable, but also I know that I’ll feel a real sense of accomplishment if this time next year I can submit another post that says “I did all 30 of the things I wanted to do!”
Make a pair of earrings
Create a self portrait
Marry myself (I’ve been desperate to do this for so long. I want it to feel like the ultimate ‘self-love’ act and I can’t wait to take it far too seriously)
Make an item of clothing
Grow a food
Take part in an Open mic poetry event
Dye my hair green
