So by the time you read this the clock would have struck midnight and I will be 25. The grand old age, 1/4 of a century old. I have been having serious prangs about reaching this mile stone but when I look back on my life it's crazy to see how far I've come.
From the age of 13 I've dreamt of living among the big city lights of London and at 21 I made that move. Michaela, all by herself and I've created a great life, met and call the most amazing people friends and I live in a city some people can only dream about visiting let alone living in. I wanted to see Tokyo, America, Europe and I've been lucky to travel the world and visit these places. I've had relationships some good, some bad but each have given me lessons and memories. I have passed my driving test and owned a car. I have gone to music festivals and saw my favourite artists rock the stage. I wanted to own designer handbags and I currently have 4. Everything I have wanted or wanted to experience I can say I've been lucky to. Girls holidays, wild nights out and rolling in at 7am the next day, I'm lucky to say I have achieved it. But reaching this milestone I've realised I have so much more to achieve and experience.
I've created my 30 before 30 list to encourage me and keep me on track. I love to live life to the fullest and I hate looking back or being kept away from achieving the very best I can. Before lifes responsibilities kick in and there are dramatic changes, I want to be able to live my life with no regrets. So in the next 5 years I can look back and think YOU DID IT!
1. Travel for a year - Across the globe, high and low I want to continuously travel and explore
2. Visit NY LA and Las Vegas - Prefereably driving across america with my roof top down and being carefree.
3. Be debt free - credit cards, overdrafts be gone.
4. Go to Glastonbury
5.
6. Own less and live in less clutter
7. Start a business no matter how small or big - I want my own plus size boutique one day
8.
9. Learn a cool new hobby and make new friends
10.
11. Test drive my dream car (and aspire to own)
12. Own a house - I'd love the chance to get on the property ladder
13.
14. Stay at the Shard hotel
15. Visit Santorini
16. Travel from North Italy to South
17.
18.
19. Move and live in another country
20. Read at least one book a month
21. Quit drinking so much cola/fizzy drinks
22.
23. Volunteer for a charity
24. See the Northern Lights
25. Buy a Chanel Handbag
26. Start a memory journal
27. Go swimming at least once a week
28. Learn another language
29. Spend less time looking at my phone and on the internet
30. Learn how to use my Olympus pen properly
Love
Michaela

Thanks lovely. Glasto is on my list for next year. Just trying to round up the troops xxx
DeleteInteresting list, I'm 26 and haven't even thought of creating such a list. Think it's the fear of knowing I'm stepping up the ladder pretty quick lol
ReplyDeleteI was seriously pranging about turning 25 and just had to put some focus on it jhahaha
DeleteGreat list! I would love to get more travelling under my belt. I turned 30 in March and it's fab!
ReplyDeleteAww thanks lovely. Traveling is defo something I want more of in my life before my commitments change x
DeleteI think I might just have to give one of these lists a go, I have a wee bit less time than you though given that I'm 28!
