Every May as the school year ends, people graduate, and everyone transitions to summer I get super sentimental. I pull out old pictures, watch old home videos, and day dream about what the future could hold. Celebrating a belated twentieth birthday with one of my best friends yesterday got me thinking. How can I make the best of my life right now? What are some goals I would like to accomplish before I turn twenty? With only 15 weeks until my twentieth birthday, I decided to make a list of twenty things I would like to do before I turn twenty years old.
1. Read more books
I have around 10 books already on my to-read list that I would love to get through
2. Attend more concerts
I start working on this goal tomorrow with and outdoor concert!
3. Spend less time in my bed
4. Establish a sleep schedule
I am the queen of 'going to bed' and preceeding to watch netflix in bed till 3am
5. Learn how to use Photoshop
Using the Adobe website, I am teaching myself how to use Photoshop, which I have always wanted to learn but never did.
6. Have a blackout night once a week
This is something I learned about through the Michalaks. I hope to put away devices one night a week and just enjoy life.
7. Eat healthier
Starting this next week I am going Keto, so pray for me!!
8. Exercise more (and find the type of exercise I love)
9. Spend more time in prayer
10. Visit the High Museum
I have lived outside of Atlanta my whole life and never have taken the time to go into the city and see the High museum.
11. Go Stargazing
12. Buy myself something expensive
That something expensive is my new apple watch which I have always wanted!
13. Go camping
I got an ENO for my birthday two years ago and have yet to go camp in it
14. Write something everyday
Whether I sit down and write for five minutes or five hours, I need to start sitting down and writing every day
15. Be on time
I am the queen of being late as well, which I need to work on
16. Spend more time with family
I am going to see family in MN this summer, and planning family dinners with my extended family here!
17. Enjoy brunch more often
18. Get outside more
19. Learn to let go
Whether it is hoarding various things or forgiving people from my past, I need to learn to let go
20. Volunteer
This past year has been crazy and due to that I haven't volunteered as much, which is something that brings me a lot of joy.
