Hello 2017!!! Soooo…. I have not kept up with this blog like I thought I would have but here I am trying, lol.

It’s week 3 of the new year, and with 5 month and 2 weeks until my next birthday I thought I would take a look at my bucket list to see what I have accomplished so far.

For a refresher here is my bucket-list:

1. Start a blog and write a blog at least once a week until my 30^th birthday. (More like every few months)
2. Get a tattoo.
3. Random act of kindness-Leave a $100 tip.
4. Go on a ghost tour in New Orleans.(Possibly going the week before my birthday)
5. Travel to an exotic destination. (Possibly happening in the Summer!!)
6. Go to a music festival in a different city. (Changing this to seeing one of my favorite bands in a different city!! Josh Abbott Band in Denver when i visit Becca!!) 
7. Travel to at least 2 different states I have not been to.
8. Splurge on a once in a lifetime meal at one of the world’s best restaurants.
9. Go whitewater rafting.
10. Learn how to shoot a gun.
11. Write a fictional story and self-publish.
12. Become a CPA( ehhh I can dream…but it can happen!).
13. Travel Solo…..again…. : )) (coming up this week!!)
14. Learn about my family Genealogy, take an ancestry test!
15. Read a classic novel. ( i started Pride and Prejudice) 
16. Try an exotic dish I have never had before.
17. See a Broadway show.
18. Run a half marathon and finish it in my goal time. ( Alamo 13.1!! March 19th 2017)
19. Spend New Year’s Eve in a different city!
20. Visit the Grand Canyon or another national park outside of Texas!
21. Get a professional full body massage!
22. Learn a foreign language- Italian!
23. Go zip lining.
24. Ride a scooter through the city.
25. Dress as Selena for Halloween.( Prob gonna change this to Dressing as Selena on a random day before my birthday, LOL!!)
26. Go parasailing.
27. Learn how to cook a Turkey for Thanksgiving.(boo, didnt happen)
28. Find out one thing my Mom really wanted to do and do it in her honor.
29. Start a Business
30. Take a picture everyday until my 30th birthday and of every experience. (This is harder than it may seem…..i have about 4 months of pictures, and then kinda stopped, lol)

Yep……I have accomplished 4 of the 30, with a few happening with in the next few months. It’s not where i thought i would be but at least I’ve checked a few off my list.

What i hope to accomplish this year and the months leading up to my birthday is to complete a majority of my listed items. I hope to push myself harder this year to get where i truly want to be. I kind of hit a wall and let life get in the way, I started to let things go and that is mistake number one. You can never let your dreams get far from you, because when you do you get lost and forget where you wanted to be. I need to remember to stay focused and chase my dreams. There is still time and I am going to make the best of it, I set a goal and I am determined to achieve it!!

So the count down continues! 170 days>>>>5 months 2 weeks until I hit the big 3 0!!!

Wish me luck!

XOXO
