I'm compiling a list of things I want to do before I turn 30. I have a couple so far.
1. I want to learn to knit/sew: I actually have a brand new sewing machine but never have attempted to use it. I have lots of creative ideas that I would love to explore with that machine..... I just get really intimidated and make lots of excuses when it comes to actually tackling it. But this year is going to be the year I pull it down out of the attic and finally create something (anything) with it.
2. I desperately want to re-visit Hawaii. I love the Hawaiian islands. So, I am hoping that Jeremiah and I can manage a trip around my birthday. Something about going back to where we honeymooned just seems so whimsical and romantic.
3. I want to take a photography class. I have a brand new SLR camera but very little knowledge on how to use the dang thing. It's a shame to have that nice of a camera and not know all the functions/capabilities. My ultimate goal would be to NEVER use the 'auto' button again.
4. Lose another 10 pounds. Seems to always be on my list but I am determined.... especially if I am going back to Hawaii.
5. And this one is going to sound silly but I want to read some classics. Specifically, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, To Kill a Mockingbird, Great Expectations, Little Women, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, and The Great Gatsby. Okay, so let's be real I still have to read my regular fluff and my book club reads so hopefully between all that I can at least read two or three of these classics, right?
and #6. I would love to be able to road trip down Highway 101 and see the California Redwoods.
Since I will be 30 in June I am sure that I won't be able to fulfill all of these goals/adventures but I am sure going to try....
