30 Before 30

Here is a list of thirty things which I want to achieve before I turn thirty. I figured that writing them all down would be the best way to make sure I don’t forget, as I can cross each one off as I go along.

You know what it’s like – you go work, you cook dinner, you Play on FoxyBingo.com, and before you know it, time’s flown by and you’ve not achieved half the things you always wanted to do.

That’s Life, yo.

I’m now accepting offers from people who can help me with this stuff. Like, feed me chicken and fish and pry steak from my hands when I try and cheat. And book publishers. And hand holders for the tattoo. Interested? Reach out and touch me!

    So if you run a marathon, does that mean that you can just cross off 23-25? Hmm…

    Hey Katie, If you need help with 4. Attend 50 live concerts by 2015, you should head up to Ottawa, Ontario at the begining of July. Check out our blues fest. No it’s not all blues. I don’t consider KISS, or Akon blues. But it is 12 days of awesome. with more then 50 concerts in those 12 days. TYou may not make it to all the shows but it would knock off a whole whackload!

    Jacey! That’s an awesome idea. If only I had a passport. I’ve avoided getting one for years because I just hate travel. But for music? I’ll go anywhere!

    No! They have to be races that are for that specific goal. Don’t encourage me to cheat, yo.
