23 Before 24


Okay, so I have never done one of these lists before, but I have definitely seen them floating around the internet when a blogger's birthday arrives and thought I would give it a try. So here's my list of 23 things to do before I turn 24.

1. Get the novel I have been brainstorming at least half way finished. (The first draft that is.)

2. Make the blog a .com instead of a blogspot.com.

3. Lose 20lb and stay in shape.

4. Try taking a photo every hour for a day and post it on the blog.

5. Get my permit. (Yes, I really don't have a license.)

6. Get another tattoo.

7. Write more poetry.

8. Take a few outfit photos and post them on the blog.

9. Experiment with painting and create a few pieces for the house.

10. Try not to bottle emotions and let them out. Heal.

11. Finish school. I really just need to get it over with.

12. Do a week long detox.

13. Play a video game other than Kingdom Hearts.

14. Read books that will benefit my soul.

15. Try to sew something.

16. Go a month without sugar.

17. Grow my own herbs, for cooking and for magick.

18. Try tarot reading for someone other than myself.

19. Write a short story.

20. Get Eli a kitty friend to play with.

21. Start writing an e-book.

22. Invest in a pair of roller-blades.

23. Try my hand at blending my own tea.

I think that's a pretty manageable list. I do have a whole year to do it in after all. Have you ever done a list like this? What are a few of the things you want to accomplish before your next birthday? Honestly I can't believe I'm already 23. How did that happen?

My Life, My Bucket List

I've been thinking a lot lately about all the things I want to do in my life and I decided to compile a list -a bucket list, if you will. I believe in reincarnation, sure, but I still only have one lifetime to be me. When I die and my soul gets put into another body then it will have a whole new life and personality and things will be different. So I've really only got until I croak to get this all done. So this is what I want to do, in no real order...

Be a published novelist
Run a successful blog that people consistently read and are interested in
Work in a library
Travel as much as possible and everywhere. Mainly Europe, but other places as well
Do an alternative model photoshoot
Run a successful etsy shop
Own a lot of cats
Backpack someplace and stay in a hostel
Cover my body in tattoos
Dye my hair lavender
Dye my hair orange
Learn to crochet
Learn yoga
Learn to bellydance
See Emilie Autumn in concert
See Marilyn Manson in concert
Spend Mardi Gras in New Orleans
Pet a tiger
...

I'm sure I could think of more if I tried. That's what just immediately comes to mind. Some of it is stuff that's not too difficult to achieve and others are things I will have to get really lucky to have a chance at.

What does everyone else want to do before they kick the bucket? Travel? Write a book? Swim with dolphins? Tell me!
