On the Eve of Mid Twenties

Well I am approaching the end of my early 20’s… I’ll be turning 25 tomorrow… it is all downhill from here. I am going to spend about 5 minutes sulking about being old before I move on and look forward to an awesome year. I’m not going to lie, 24 was a tough year, so my outlook is very bright that my 25^th year of life will ROCK! To continue with this feeling, I have decided to make a list of 25 things to do during my 25^th year of life. Now I am making this list mostly realistic (no climbing Mt. Everest here!) with a some major goals for good measure! On a side note, I think my parents will be excited about a couple on the list. Of course, I will blogging when I finish a task, complete with commentary and lots of photos! So, without further ado… 25 things I’m going to do before I turn 26…
