30 Things to do Before I Turn 30

Up until 30, for some reason it made sense to me that I wanted to to x-1 things before I turned x. But 29 before 30 seemed kind of...silly. 30 is big. 30 is...thirty. So without further adieu, my list of thirty things I want to do before 30:
  1. Learn to drive standard
  2. Visit a new state
  3. Visit a new museum
  4. Make my own flavored vodka
  5. Make ice cream
  6. Find a piece of good furniture
    I feel like I did one better and got a very beautiful rug by Austin artist Alyson Fox (from West Elm). It is gorgeous and I love it. We even bought a vacuum cleaner JUST BECAUSE I love this rug so much, and want to take care of it properly forever. We also finally got around to getting a cube Expedit for our vinyl collection.
  7. Adopt a greyhound
  8. Add a lens to my camera collection
  9. Take bird pictures
    Done! Got a photo of a hawk, which was more than I ever could have dreamed! Now I need to use the good old telephoto lens and get some "real" bird pictures as the telephoto intended.
  10. Make a lightbox
  11. Knit a sweater
  12. Sew a skirt
  13. Make a travel book for guests/Scrapbook about Boston
  14. Take a haunted trolley tour
  15. Ride the Swan Boats
  16. Learn to play guitar
  17. Take spanish lessons
  18. Read Three classics: War and Peace, Persuasion, and Crime and Punishment
  19. Start waking up early
    I had to start waking up before 6:30 for my new job. So...done!
  20. Visit a national monument
  21. Run a 10K
  22. Repaint/refinish our kitchen chairs
  23. Overhaul the sh*t out of my closet
  24. Overhaul the sh*t out of my online portfolio
  25. Open that damned etsy store
  26. Get my first tattoo
  27. Do 30 days of yoga
  28. Keep a Therapy Journal
  29. Set a measurable goal in therapy
  30. Eat a cleaner diet

Do not go on the Boston haunted trolley tour. It's way too long and painfully boring.
