my bucket list (before i'm 30)

So everyone always dreams of doing amazing things within their lifetimes and write them down. I've always been a big dreamer, I've been told. When I was 4 years old, I wanted to be the president of the United States because I told mommy I thought Daddy Bush was too old and he needed a "girl helper". So now it should not surprise you that I decided to make a bucket list before I become a middle-aged woman :) . Some of these may change some way or another, but here is the "rough final draft".

Things to do before I'm Thirtyyy...
1. Run a half marathon.
2. Run a marathon.
3. Buy a new home.
4. Tie the knot with someone special.
5. Put away $10,000 for my savings account (That may be hard!)
6. Travel to South America and do something incredible.
7. Buy a slammin' new car.
8. Go on a cruise with a buddy or two.
9. Learn American Sign Language.
10. Take piano lessons (Let's see how long I stick with that)
11. Ride in a hot air balloon.
12. Go to Times Square in New York on New Year's Eve.
13. Help an orphan.
14. Visit the Pyramids in Egypt, Africa.
15. Las Vegas (Do I need an intro to this?)
16. Plant a garden.
17. Meet a celebrity.
18. Kiss someone on the top of the Eiffel Tower (If I get married before this, I will just have to settle with my husband :)
19. Go to Disneyworld and give Mickey Mouse a big hug!
20. Take a road trip with my girlfriends.
21. Help 10 strangers.
22. Take belly dancing lessons.
23. Teach in a foreign country (Somewhere in Latin America).
24. Write a children's book.
25. Get my Master's Degree in Education Administration or Educational Psychology.
26. Earn my Doctorate Degree (Who knows?)
27. Buy something from Tiffany and Co.
28. Get a makeover.
29. Lose one pant size.
30. Be in two places at once.

So there it is. There are some things up there that I know I can do and some things that are a little far-fetched. But knowing me, I will find a way to get them done somehow. Have a very Merry Christmas everyone!
