On Wednesday, August 13th, I turned 26 years old. When I first stopped to think about my coming-of-age, I panicked. Turning 26 means that I'm officially closer to 30. Closer to being older and further away from my youth, college, old friends. Then I stopped to think about all of the great things that come with getting older - being married, starting a family, a career. With all of this in mind, I'm starting a "30 before 30" list. Realistic things I want to accomplish over the next, yes, four years.
I have done my best to split this list into categories to ensure that I stay well rounded. I plan to keep track of my progress here. :)
